Each day, growing crowds of young, college-educated Brazilians are taking to the urban streets. Their grievances seem disparate and unrelated, which leaves the question of why and what they are protesting.

The marches began as modest affairs in opposition to a nominal increase in the public-bus fare. But the higher rate has since been rescinded and the protests keep growing, so perhaps that was never really the reason so many people joined the rallies in the first place.   Continue reading “Brazil Riots Against Its Middle-Class Illusion”

Just a few short years ago, I would have likely considered the death of Rolling Stone Reporter Michael Hastings an “open and shut” tragedy after a cursory review of the open source evidence associated with this event. Based on a number of things I’ve recently seen and certain information which I’ve been given over the last few years, I have my doubts. Serious doubts. Legitimate doubts.   Continue reading “From Karen Silkwood to Michael Hastings, something is wrong”

Deception is a state of mind and the mind of the state ~ James Jesus Angleton, Head of CIA Counter Intelligence 1954-1974

It is a shame that James Angleton was so right in his statement and that it is still as valid, if not even more so, today than it was then. Instead of becoming more open government and society has become more deceptive and secretive.   Continue reading “Deception is a state of mind and the mind of the state”

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — As the West battles one catastrophic wildfire after another, the federal government is spending less and less on its main program for preventing blazes in the first place.

A combination of government austerity and the ballooning cost of battling the ruinous fires has taken a bite out of federal efforts to remove the dead trees and flammable underbrush that clog Western forests. The U.S. Forest Service says that next year it expects to treat 1 million fewer acres than it did last year.   Continue reading “As fires rage, feds cut funding on prevention”

The article below is very interesting and informative.  It undermines Common Core even more.  Everyone, in every state should be aware of what this merchandising stimulated program is doing to the education of our students today and tomorrow. Anyone connected with the approval of this program being used before it was ever vetted should be recalled, where this is legal to do; those who approved it should be brought out into the public eye, and made to justify their actions of implementing this program which is all about the merchandising of the program and removed from office or board by being forced to resign.    Continue reading “Don’t Take Your Child’s Education for Granted, What You Need to Know About Common Core”

The following qualifies as one of the greatest lies the globalists continue to push upon the American people. That lie is: “Treaties supersede the U.S. Constitution”.

The Second follow-up lie is this one: “A treaty, once passed, cannot be set aside”.  Continue reading “Treaties Do Not Supersede the Constitution”

B’Man’s Revolt – by David Martin

Sometime in the evening of May 21 a contingent of law enforcement officials arrived at the apartment of 27-year-old Ibragim Todashev (pronounced Ibrahim To-DAH-shev).  The FBI says that the group consisted of an FBI agent, two Massachusetts state troopers, and “other law enforcement personnel.”  So there were at least four of them, and we may presume that they were all armed.  Their interest in Todashev was occasioned by the fact that he was an acquaintance of Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the elder of the two Chechen-immigrant brothers accused in the Boston marathon bombing.  Todashev, like Tamerlan Tsarnaev, had been a mixed martial arts fighter and had lived for a time in the Boston area.  Their common professional interests and heritage had apparently brought them together, at least casually.   Continue reading “The Todashev Killing and the House of Cards”

LONDON (AP) — British spies are running an online eavesdropping operation so vast that internal documents say it even outstrips the United States’ international Internet surveillance effort, the Guardian newspaper reported Friday.

The paper cited British intelligence memos leaked by former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden to claim that U.K. spies were tapping into the world’s network of fiber optic cables to deliver the “biggest internet access” of any member of the Five Eyes — the name given to the espionage alliance composed of the United States, Britain, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.   Continue reading “Guardian: Documents expose massive UK spying op”

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — Imagine the scenario: A federal agent attempts to arrest someone for illegally selling a machine gun. Instead, the federal agent is arrested — charged in a state court with the crime of enforcing federal gun laws.

Farfetched? Not as much as you might think.   Continue reading “Gun laws: Federal nullification efforts mounting in states”

STONEHENGE, England (AP) — Police say more than 20,000 celebrants have gathered at the famed Stonehenge monument to mark the summer solstice.

The cloud cover Friday morning prevented bright sunshine at dawn of the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere but a joyous spirit prevailed. Police say there were fewer arrests than usual with 22 people taken into custody, most for drug-related offenses.   Continue reading “Stonehenge gathering marks summer solstice”

Foreign-backed militants fighting against the government of the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad say they have received new weapons which they claim can change the course of the battle.

“We’ve received quantities of new types of weapons, including some that we asked for and that we believe will change the course of the battle on the ground,” a spokesman for the so-called the Free Syrian Army (FSA) Louay Muqdad said on Friday.   Continue reading “New weapons supplied to militants in Syria”

We know that steaming the bud of an otherwise intimidating thistle flower yields a delicious cooked artichoke and that beyond the menacing claw of a lobster awaits yet another delicacy.

We can also thank our foodie forefathers for discovering the things that can kill us. To those who discovered that belladonna and hemlock should not be eaten: we salute you. But we’re a funny bunch. Although our most basic instinct is for survival, we continue to eat poisonous things, or parts of them at least. If you doubt it, consider the following foods.   Continue reading “Surprisingly Poisonous Foods We Eat”
