A bipartisan group of 26 US senators has written to intelligence chiefs to complain that the administration is relying on a “secret body of law” to collect massive amounts of data on US citizens.

The senators accuse officials of making misleading statements and demand that the director of national intelligence James Clapper answer a series of specific questions on the scale of domestic surveillance as well as the legal justification for it.   Continue reading “Senators accuse government of using ‘secret law’ to collect Americans’ data”

Senators Mark Udall and Ron Wyden are upset about something, they just can’t say what. In a letter sent to the National Security Agency this week about a fact sheet on its surveillance programs, the senators complained about what they refer to only as “the inaccuracy”. The inaccuracy is “significant”. The inaccuracy could “decrease public confidence in the NSA‘s openness and its commitment to protecting Americans’ constitutional rights”. But, because the information underlying it is classified, the inaccuracy can’t be described.   Continue reading “The real concern: why are so many US government documents classified?”

As much as no sane person would want urban and suburban rioting, there are thugs making noise in social media that they would use the acquittal of Florida neighborhood watchman George Zimmerman as an excuse to riot and loot on a grand scale, not just in Sanford, FL where events took place, or in Florida, but nationwide. These criminals—there’s no other way to describe them—are asserting that they will use an acquittal as a excuse nationwide to go on a rampage in many areas.   Continue reading “Surviving a riot”

Our Crisis

We do indeed live in “interesting times.”  But are we interested in the right things?  What are the “right” things we should be interested in?  After all, it seems that in an ostensibly free country with “liberty and justice for all” bandied about as a foundational credo – the opposite has somehow become the status quo – that is – if YOU or I my dear citzen – dare to become interested in the “wrong” things.   Continue reading “Saving America: Turning Lemons into Lemonade”

Guns Save Life

I can’t wait for these folks come to Illinois.

The Mayors Against Illegal Guns people suggest that gun owners “know their place”.

Do you know your place?

Would it be on your knees, looking up, saying, “Yassir, Massah!  We knows our place, Massah!” to the MAIG speakers?   Continue reading “MAIG says gun owners ‘know their place’”

Top secret US National Security Agency (NSA) documents disclosed by the Guardian have shocked the world with revelations of a comprehensive US-based surveillance system with direct access to Facebook, Apple, Google, Microsoft and other tech giants. New Zealandcourt records suggest that data harvested by the NSA’s Prism system has been fed into the Five Eyes intelligence alliance whose members also include the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.   Continue reading “Pentagon bracing for public dissent over climate and energy shocks”

Just a few weeks ago we learned that Monsanto’s gmo’ed wheat seeds miraculously returned to life, a full twelve years after a test planting in 16 states, including Oregon, after which the GMO wheat seeds were ‘wholly destroyed’.

If you recall, Monsanto and its whor  excuse me, ‘professors’ claimed that the study involved” ‘Very rigorous’ protocols (that) controlled the work at agricultural research stations”, and at the conclusion of the test planting:     Continue reading “The Likely Reason Fields Planted With Monsanto’s GMO Sugar Beets Were Torched”

Imagine a brand new Mercedes C250 that hits a palm tree somewhere in Los Angeles. Would you consider it likely that the engine of the car would fly “50 to 60 yards“ from the car down the street after the impact took place? I’ve asked Daimler in Stuttgart, Germany some questions with respect to the fatal car crash of US journalist Michael Hastings. Mercedes Benz USA says it has “no information to provide because we have very little information on this tragedy.”   Continue reading “The Flying Engine”

DEARBORN, Mich. (AP) — As early summer days on Orchard Street draw to a close, sliding doors open, inviting fresh air and neighbors into side-by-side garages.

More patio than parking place or storage for power tools, Mariam Khalaf said her garage is primarily for “chilling purposes” — including smoking, eating and watching TV with family and friends, including next-door neighbors Muheeb Nabulsy and his wife, Fatima Mkkawi.   Continue reading “Arabs worry as Dearborn eyes garage rule revision”

Over the past seven years, Chicago police Officer Richard A. Rizzo has been arrested four times by fellow members of his department. The charges included domestic battery, child endangerment and aggravated assault with a gun.

Each time, officers booked Rizzo and took his mugshot. Each time, prosecutors filed criminal charges against him.

And each time, prosecutors ended up dropping the charges against the 15-year police veteran.   Continue reading “THE WATCHDOGS: Arrested again and again — but still a Chicago cop”

In a few days, we will all have an opportunity to peacefully inflict a major psychological blow on the rapidly coalescing police state by the simple but powerful act of refusing to play along with the absurd pantomime on the 4th of July that we live in an even nominally free country – one with the rule of law, an operative Constitution and respect for individual rights. One that isn’t a thugocracy.

We can turn our backs on the flag. Decline to participate when urged to cheer and sing.   Continue reading “Turn Your Back This Fourth of July”

Mr. Conservative – by Warner Todd Huston

What do police do with all those guns they take in at those so-called gun buy-back programs? Apparently they sell them for a profit!

This is what UPI news found from a police department outside Chicago. The St. Charles Police hosted one of these gun buy-back things to “get guns off the streets.” But what did the police do? They turned around and sold many of the guns to make a profit and put those guns right back “on the streets.”   Continue reading “Police Departments Caught Selling Guns They Get Through Gun Guybacks”

Since the mid-to-late 1990s when genetically-modified organisms (GMOs) were first being thrust onto the market by governments working in lockstep with the biotechnology industry, the U.K. Parliament has effectively barred their use in all food items served to government officials at Parliament restaurants, according to new reports. This, despite the fact that prominent elected officials in the U.K. are right now pushing GMOs on a public that is largely opposed to them, effectively shining the spotlight on their own insane hypocrisy with regards to the GMO issue.   Continue reading “UK government bans GMOs from its own Parliament restaurants while telling public to embrace genetic poisons”
