SHTF Plan – by Mac Slavo

Several days ago we posted a video depicting law enforcement officials forcing homeowners out of their residences at gun point as they searched for Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

Because the video was not an official, state-sponsored release through mainstream media channels, we were lambasted for publishing false information. Some readers via social media, our commenting forums and email suggested that nothing of the sort happened in Watertown, Massachusetts. They accused this web site, as well as Infowars.com (where we sourced the video), and other alternative media publishers of posting footage of an unrelated incident and summarily dismissed the shocking evidence.   Continue reading “Rescued at the Point of A Gun: Second Video Confirms Militarized, Warrantless Boston Raids”

Have you ever selected a product at the supermarket and felt virtuous because the ingredients label boasted of “natural coloring” or “natural flavors”?  That sure sounds a lot better than those chemical concoctions, right?

Well, maybe not.  Just because something is “natural” doesn’t mean you would want to eat it if you knew where it was derived.

Put another way, who is the most likely person to win it if there is political patronage?   Continue reading “Dirty Business as Usual at California High Speed Rail”

Senior Obama administration officials have secretly authorized the interception of communications carried on portions of networks operated by AT&T and other Internet service providers, a practice that might otherwise be illegal under federal wiretapping laws.

The secret legal authorization from the Justice Department originally applied to a cybersecurity pilot project in which the military monitored defense contractors’ Internet links. Since then, however, the program has been expanded by President Obama to cover all critical infrastructure sectors including energy, healthcare, and finance starting June 12.

An independent water test conducted by a company specializing in oil spill cleanups has found that the March 29 tar sands oil spill caused by ExxonMobil’s ruptured Pegasus pipeline in Mayflower, Arkansas is now contaminating nearby Lake Conway.

The new findings, provided to the media by Opflex Solutions, shows that the bitumen heavy crude oil (or tar sands) has now contaminated the lake, a revelation which directly contradicts ExxonMobil’s most recent cleanup update, which categorically denied that any oil had reached the body of water.   Continue reading “ExxonMobil claims in dispute as spill reaches Arkansas lake”

But this quaint aphorism notwithstanding, the latest report on wealth polarization in the US may be difficult for many Americans to accept.   Continue reading “What recovery? US rich get richer, middleclass treading water”

In the aftermath of the Boston Marathon government false flag, a new phrase has gained strength in the global government dictionary; a term used commonly in prisons is now being used in the United States to be imposed on Americans. ‘Lockdown’ is the new catch phrase the government-mainstream media complex has created to catch criminals that are ‘REALLY’ dangerous.   Continue reading “Government-Media Complex Sneaks New Buzz Word on American Public: “LOCKDOWN” – aka Martial Law”
