The Cyprus Bailout is the result of years and years of escalating attacks against taxpayers all across the world. This bailout is in reality a grand theft. The European Union is offering the island nation a supposed 13 billion euro bailout that will come at the cost of having bank accounts taxed 9.9%. Small accounts will be taxed 6.7%, while people with larger savings will lose at least 9.9% of your money. This is never happened before. And you can beg your bank account that it will happen again. I think this is a test run for something bigger. Continue reading “Cyprus Disaster is Worse Than You Think!”

In 2002, author Martin Lee wrote an article for Common Dreams: “Truth Serum and Torture.”
It could have been written yesterday, because now a Colorado judge has stated that, if James Holmes pleads not guilty by reason of insanity to the Aurora murders, state psychiatrists can subject him to drugs that will “help him remember his state of mind” at the time of the shootings. The drugging will reveal whether he really was insane that night last summer at the Aurora theater. Continue reading “The CIA, James Holmes, MKULTRA, and truth-serum torture”

It has been reported previously that law enforcement found research about previous mass murderers at the Newtown, Conn., home the shooter, video gamer Adam Lanza, shared with his mother, the first victim of Dec. 14.

Well the 2016 election is upon us. Strange, seems like only five months ago that we had our last presidential election. I’m telling you, we have entered the twilight zone wherein the every four year presidential election process has become like the movie, “Groundhog Day”, with a perpetual campaign to foster perpetual hope for perpetual change.
Then there is reality wherein nothing changes except the faces on the commercials as the international corporate mafia continues to suck out the wealth of our nation. For the past four years and twenty before that, fewer and fewer have a whole lot more while a whole lot more have a whole lot less. Continue reading “CPAC Neo-Con Con”

Invasion into a sovereign country, contrary to popular propaganda, is an act of war; thusly the US invasion forces in Mali are engaged in war in Africa. Continue reading “World War III Breaking Out”
