PERRY MASON CASE WITH PARROT WITNESS
2016 Jun 11 from Angelo Trotter
Regarding “Michigan: A murder trial may hinge on a parrot that was witness to the crime.” last week’s news, I thought you might find it interesting that there was a Perry Mason episode, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0673353/ based on a book: The Case of the Perjured Parrot.

GUARANTEED INCOME = DEPENDENCE
2016 June 11 from Eli Dumitru
Dear Ed,
It was pointed out to me that the reason governments are going towards a guaranteed income is so the populace will be dependent on, and therefore subservient to, the government. So in addition to impinging on the freedom of the people the government wants to take the money from, a guaranteed income would also impinge on the freedom of the people that the government wants to give the money to. That’s because freedom and responsibility are two sides of the same coin. Thanks for all you do.

Titanic; A Perfect Crimetitanicbook

This novel explores little known facts of that famous tragedy and provides jaw-dropping insights to new discoveries that came with the finding of the 100-year-old ship wreck. The book’s scenario of what really happened that fateful night is amazingly consistent with the historical record. No other theory explains so many parts of the mystery. (More)

The right decision for the wrong reasons

77% of Swiss voters rejected a proposal for a guaranteed income of $2,563 per month for every adult. Opponents of the proposal said it would cost too much, would weaken the economy, and would undermine social cohesion. Reuters 2016 Jun 5 (Story) (Cached)

There is no doubt that those arguments are sound, but they are the wrong reasons to reject the plan. To explain why that is so, let us assume for the moment that a guaranteed income would have none of those damaging effects. Let us imagine that it would cost nothing, because it would stimulate the economy and, thereby, produce new tax revenue to cover the subsidy, and that it would strengthen social cohesion. Then what?

If we understand the principles that are the foundation of liberty, and if we place a higher value on freedom than on “affordability”, “economy”, or “social cohesion”, then we must reject any plan that is based on the coercive redistribution of wealth even if it is said to produce desirable effects.

The rationale for this is simple. A just state derives its powers from the people it serves. It cannot have any authority that it does not receive from its citizens. Citizens do not have the right to forcibly take money or other forms of property from one person to give it to another no matter how worthy the cause. Therefore, they cannot delegate that power to their elected representatives. You cannot give that which you do not have. Therefore, the state does not have the right to redistribute wealth, no matter how popular the cause.

If this is a new concept to you, I urge you to take a look at my video presentation entitled Freedom in One Lesson, which is on the Reality Zone’s new YouTube channel. If you wish to have your own personal copy, it is available here.

Even though the Swiss were swayed by the wrong reasons, I salute them for their independence and their strength of character to turn down a free lunch.

DO NOT HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS, FOR SURE
2016 Jun 10 from Ewen Chan
Mr. Griffin: How then, are you able to say that “chemtrails” exist but you say that you do not have the technical knowledge to tell me about anything that matters? (like the physical and/or mechanical and/or chemical properties of the substances) I would have expected that you would have some knowledge about how the mass of the substances (which you can’t tell me anything about) would be transported in the atmosphere/through atmospheric dispersion.

REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello Ewen. I am equally frustrated by not knowing enough about chemistry to speak with authority on this. That is why I try to make it clear that I am acting, not on such knowledge, but on logic in terms of observable phenomena that, in my opinion, cannot be explained by the “ice-crystal” theory – such as the extremely unusual concentrations of certain chemicals that are found in air and rainwater following a heavy episode of engine trails and the lack of any convincing explanation for the all-day persistency of these trails, to name a few. I am the first to admit that I do not have the answers, but neither do the nay-sayers. Thanks for writing.

GET OUT OF THE SYSTEM
2016 Jun 10 from Anonymous
Dear GEG, Why do we let the bankers control our stored wealth using their fiat currency that is created out of thin air? Only precious metals like Gold and Silver are real money, a time tested stores of wealth. Currency has all the attributes of money except being that store of value.

The elite bankers have dumbed down the public to believe our paper currency is money. They have also turned the banking system into a machine to keep us in financial slavery with inflation and now negative interest rates ”NIRs”. They will surely get their cashless society soon. After that, they will bring us a one-world currency.

Most people who scrimped and saved will think their only option is to leave their money in the bank or the stock market. That is not true. We need to take back control of our assets. Spent the currency on assets that will grow in value or bring value in the future.

The banking crisis that is about to descend upon us will not only diminish most peoples savings but will outright steal it through NIRs and Bail-ins. Let’s beat them to the punch. We can use our savings to buy farm land with a water supply, precious metals, stored food, guns and ammo, power sources and anything else to provide for our families when the dollar dies so we can live off the grid.

Removing our currency from the banks’ grasp will take the bankers’ power away. One should keep no currency in the bank except to pay current bills. The bankers are just like slave holders who give you the option of overseer A or B, slavery any way you look at it. Do not play their game. Get out of the system.

More than a miscalculation

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas has filed for a rate increase of almost 60%. This is due to revenue losses estimated at more than $1 billion over the past two years under Obamacare. The increase in rates will destroy the private insurance market because many will be forced to cancel their insurance. This will lead to the government picking up the coverage and attempting to pay for it through higher taxes and inflation. InfoWars 2016 Jun 2 (Story) (Cached)

That has been the plan all along. Cost overruns in Obamacare are not the result of a mere miscalculation. That outcome was known from the start. American leaders in both major political parties are dedicated collectivists, and this was merely a strategy for achieving their goal. They will not rest until every human activity, not just health care, is under their control. It is their path to greatness and power.

The people, however, are not yet ready to become total serfs in the New Feudalism, so they must be fooled a little while longer into thinking that America still is the land of capitalism and free markets. They must be convinced that the present economic and social strains on the system are caused by the failure of the old order and that, someday soon, we will need to replace it with even more government intervention and control.

Obamacare is just the tip of the iceberg. Collectivism has been the dominant force in all governments of the world, especially the United States, since World War One. Collectivism is the cause of almost all economic and social decay since that time. Let us work hard to awaken our fellow citizens to that reality in time to prevent the process from running full course to global totalitarianism.

Three babies with microcephaly have been born in the US and, without any evidence, the Zika virus is being blamed. Fear of the virus is prompting athletes and tourists to ban the Olympics this summer in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Reporter Jon Rappoport speculates that the Zika virus is a medical scare tactic being used to harm Brazil, a country allied with other BRICS nations that threaten US monetary hegemony. He says that the most recent number of cases of microcephaly in Brazil total 854, but only 11% of those showed any trace of the virus.

The Republican Party is threatened by the Libertarian Party (LP) and wants to neutralize it because it is the only alternative to the two-party system that will appear on ballots in all 50 states in the upcoming election. Gary Johnson, the LP presidential nominee, is an establishment politician who supports international interventionism and is pandering to Sanders’ supporters. Johnson and his running mate, William Weld, support the concept that treaties supersede the Constitution as the supreme law of the land and they do not support the right to private property. Weld thinks that only hunting rifles are covered by the Second Amendment. Finally, the LP was made to look very undignified when a candidate for LP chairman did a strip-tease on stage.

GLAD TO BE IN THE FREEDOM NETWORK
2016 June 3 from David Schmitt, Ph.D.
I have just signed up and am glad to be in the Freedom Network. I picked up The Creature… from some JBS folks several years ago. I recently saw you [GEG] featured again in a film by Free Minds in OKC. You have helped me in my coming out of Plato’s allegorical “cave with shadow pictures.”

I look forward to becoming progressively more and more involved. I hope to write book on the inside workings of bureaucratic tyranny. My audiences are both the general public and, specifically, young people who need to re-conquer government from the inside. That is not a perfect solution, but it is another important phalanx, I believe, in the battle.

WHY BANKS CHARGE NEGATIVE INTEREST
Posted 2016 May 26 from Chris Read
Dear GEG,
There’s so much talk in the media these days about “negative interest rates.” You’d think the banks were losing money or something! If I read your book Creature from Jekyll Island correctly, then it’s obvious that the banks are still making a fair bit of money even at negative rates. I think it would be very interesting to your readers if you did an example of how, with fractional reserve banking, banks could still make money even at “negative X%” or whatever the number is.

REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello Chris. Negative interest rates is merely banker talk for bank fees charged to depositors based on a percentage of their deposits. It has little to do with fractional reserves. By using the term “negative interest rates”, it diverts attention away from the reality that banks are socking it to their depositors by simply taking money out of deposit-account balances to make up for bank losses when they occur. The extra twist in this is that governments and their partner central banks are going to great lengths to make the process entirely legal so depositors cannot sue them when the theft occurs.

When people finally wake up to the reality of this legalized theft, those with large deposits will want to remove their money from banks. That is why the banks and their partners in government are working hard now to eliminate cash. That will force everyone to leave their money in banks where it can readily be taken in the form of negative interest rates.

What happened to The Spirit of ’76?

Pete Hendrickson wrote a book called Cracking the Code that offers evidence to support the claim that the income tax was meant to be an excise tax that applies only to those who benefit in some way from a federal privilege, such as government employees, office holders, contractors, and welfare recipients. Regardless of what might be said against this claim, thousands of people, following that concept, have received large tax refunds from the IRS.

To pressure Hendrickson to repudiate his book, a federal judge has ordered his wife, Doreen, to sign a statement acknowledging that the income tax applies to her. If she does not do this – and if Hendrickson does not repudiate his book, she will go to prison. She is standing firm and will not sign a statement she believes to be false.

The judge, Victoria Roberts (a Clinton appointee) does not claim that Doreen owes any tax or that her interpretation of the tax law is incorrect, only that she must sign a statement that repudiates the concept in Cracking the Code. In other words, she has been ordered by a judge to perjure herself, which would make her guilty of a felony. Clearly, this is not the America of 1776.

A 2013 White House report on spying stated: “governments should not use their offensive cyber capabilities to change the amounts held in financial accounts or otherwise manipulate financial systems.” That implies that the US government, through the NSA, has been (and probably still is) changing financial accounts and manipulating financial systems. Anyone else doing that would be thrown in prison. However, the NSA employs a thousand analysts and hackers, and monitors international banking and credit-card payments. The agency is a subsidiary of the Pentagon, and some fear that military black-budget projects may be funded by manipulating financial systems and by insider trading based on data collected from spying.

I took out my little brown bottle along with a teaspoon and laid them both onto the counter. The pharmacist came over smiled and asked if he could help me. I said, “Yes! Could you please taste this for me?”

Being I’m a senior citizen… I guess the pharmacist just went along with me. He picked up the spoon and put a tiny bit of the liquid on his tongue and swilled it around. Then with a stomach-churning look on his face he spit it out on the floor and began coughing.

When he finally was finished, I looked him right in the eye asked, “Now, does that taste sweet to you? The pharmacist, shaking his head back and forth with a venomous look in his eyes yelled, “HELL NO!!!”

So I said, “Oh thank God! That’s such a relief! My doctor told me to get a pharmacist to test my urine for sugar!”

WHY BANKS CHARGE NEGATIVE INTEREST
Posted 2016 May 26 from Chris Read
Dear GEG,
There’s so much talk in the media these days about “negative interest rates.” You’d think the banks were losing money or something! If I read your book Creature from Jekyll Island correctly, then it’s obvious that the banks are still making a fair bit of money even at negative rates. I think it would be very interesting to your readers if you did an example of how, with fractional reserve banking, banks could still make money even at “negative X%” or whatever the number is.

REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello Chris. Negative interest rates is merely banker talk for bank fees charged to depositors based on a percentage of their deposits. It has little to do with fractional reserves. By using the term “negative interest rates”, it diverts attention away from the reality that banks are socking it to their depositors by simply taking money out of deposit-account balances to make up for bank losses when they occur. The extra twist in this is that governments and their partner central banks are going to great lengths to make the process entirely legal so depositors cannot sue them when the theft occurs.

When people finally wake up to the reality of this legalized theft, those with large deposits will want to remove their money from banks. That is why the banks and their partners in government are working hard now to eliminate cash. That will force everyone to leave their money in banks where it can readily be taken in the form of negative interest rates.

SHARIA LAW
Posted 2016 May 25 from Sharron Albaugh
When people immigrate to any country they are expected to assimilate, that means living by that country’s laws and customs. Sharia is meant for a different country and if you want this to be your law go to a country where it is practiced. We like our laws the way they are. Don’t try and change our country. That would be totally unfair.

SHARIA LAW WILL NEVER BE VOLUNTARY
Posted 2016 May 25 from Don Chinnici
The simple difference is how I live my life, vs. how others want me to live my life. Sharia is not about some peaceful “zen”, it’s about control. You can bet your bottom dollar that nothing about Sharia will ever be voluntary.

The real issue is, ultimately, which one supersedes? National or Sharia law? And in these courts, again, you can bet that they consider national law to be an inconvenient non-entity — and, when they get enough of a majority, those who now follow national law will be compelled to follow Sharia dictates.

SHARIA LAW IS BARBARIC
Posted 2016 May 25 from Graeme Howarth
Hello Mr. Griffin.
This is in response to your request for opinions over the Shariah Courts in the UK.

Firstly, I trained as a cross-cultural missionary and have a Bachelors & Masters degree focussing on Islam. I have a recently set-up blog here:~ www.IslamAndKiwis.com.

The reality is that it is the women who will be most disadvantaged by Sharia courts. Suppose a woman wants to leave her violent husband? Verses in the Qur’an such as 4.34 state “beat those wives of yours that you fear are disobedient”. The man need only suspect or fear disobedience, not prove it. Even if he could prove disobedience, just exactly what does that word mean? It can mean something that, to we Westerners, is merely the wife acting in a Western way – leaving the house unaccompanied by a male relative, not having sex every time her husband wants it, or not wearing a headscarf.

According to Sharia, if a woman is granted a divorce, any children are to remain under the custody of the father – a father who may well be proven to be violent and abusive. What kind of choice is it for a mother to save herself yet abandon her children to this brute?

A woman’s testimony in court is worth only half that of a man’s. Under Shariah a woman must have four male witnesses to confirm that her claim of rape is correct, otherwise she will be convicted of Zinna – adultery – and imprisoned or lashed. There are cases where western women have been thus punished in Islamic countries. Recently, an Australian woman was drugged and raped by several colleagues in a Gulf State country and, when she finally managed to drag herself to the Police, was charged with adultery, convicted, and imprisoned.

Several women’s rights groups in Pakistan say that between 2/3 and 80% of all women in Pakistan’s prisons are there because they have been raped but did not have the requisite number of male witnesses to prove it. Shariah is a barbaric and utterly repellent legal system, alien to the West and in opposition to its understanding of rights and freedoms. It should be opposed as strongly as possible.

SHARIA LAW VOLUNTARY OR ENFORCED?
Posted 2016 May 25 from Christina Sophia
If Sharia law were to only apply to those who VOLUNTARILY embrace it, then it would NOT be any different [from laws voluntarily followed by other religions that are outside government jusrisdiction]. But, based on FORCED COMPLIANCE, there is no comparison.

Also, in this case we are talking about a separate court system which metes out punishment, and I don’t think that Christian groups (that I know of) have a COURT SYSTEM that intends potentially to compete with the laws of the land. It does not follow that those who voluntarily choose to comply with a religious ‘law’ or rule, and who do not seek to forcefully impose it on others, should be “forbidden” from doing so. The difference between voluntary compliance to a religious rule & forced or threatened compliance thru a separate court system is HUGE.

But then, some Christian groups do have their own means of coercion along psychological lines to get their adherents to do things – brain washing, guilt trippin, and the like. Can or should this be “forbidden” ? Don’t see how it could be done, and it’s generally not a threat to other laws of the land, so then why try to create yet another law to forbid people from making their own choices concerning their religious beliefs?

RELIGIOUS WARS, POPULATION REDUCTION
Posted 2016 May 25 from Robert Green
It seems that there is a major effort to push Sharia Law onto non-Muslims by circumventing the laws of the nation. … Then there is the Illuminati whose intent is to reduce the population of the world to, at this time, a billion people. I’ve read that this has been a goal for 600 years to cut back humanity. Don’t think for a minute that religions are not participating in this. The tools being used, as most of us have seen, are wars, pestilence, abortions, pharmaceuticals, gangs who fight each other, chemicals, and GMO’s to name a few.

I was once told by a good source that there are Neutron bombs planted in many of our major cities. The thought occurs that if they want to create another war; with Russia for example; they can claim Russia has sent nuclear bombs our way; then detonate some of the sites here; killing the masses to include both people and animals without destroying the infrastructure of those cities. Kind of akin to Pearl Harbor that allowed Franklin Delano Roosevelt to declare war on Japan. It was a setup so Roosevelt could get into that war.

If your city fathers disappear one day, they may on their way to underground cities that have been built for just this reason. Think of the millions of people that could be (or would be) annihilated, providing the reduction of populations just here in the USA! Who knows how many others are in the rest of the world! One thing for sure, few would be untouched. and many destroyed.

THORIUM AN ENERGY SOURCE?
Posted 2016 May 25 from James J Asztalos
Dear G. Edward Griffin:
For about a year I have had a fascination with alternatives to nuclear energy coming up with wind, solar for example, Most fascinating is thorium, discovered in the 60″s, has had some applications and I believe needs to be availed to the world. However, it may not have the monetary interest of those in control of taking our money.

For example, Henry Ford produced automobiles that were made from hemp plastic that he hit with a pick axe, and it would not damage. Back at that time the steel industry was in a big growth spurt, and making hemp illegal to grow was a way to put a stop to it. Henry Ford was growing hemp in Dearborn to produce Ethanol, and a stop was put to that also. Dr. Diesel joined him in petitioning the government to keep hemp legal for the hemp oil to run the diesel engines which, otherwise, had to run on petroleum.

Nuclear-powered concept cars from the Atomic Age. Atomic-powered cars have long been a fascination of the auto industry. We look back at the height of the fixation here.

With that being said, are we facing the same sanctions against thorium and other fuels? As you search through the internet you will find cars powered with thorium, and accusations that President Clinton and his partner accepted big money to funnel the uranium from the US to a Canadian company that is partly owned by Putin. That’s what I keep finding. Nuclear waste is good to make weapons with, but thorium cannot be made into weapons. Thorium is one of the rare earth metals.

PROBLEMS WITH NUCLEAR POWER
Posted 2016 May 25 from Jerry Hewes
Ed, nuclear never was a wise choice for power. Even in my ignorant youth (50 years ago) I saw the disposal of waste as an irresolvable problem! Not only do we have leaks, obsolescence, melt downs, terrorists targets, demolition costs, enormous used fuel storage systems requiring constant cooling, earthquakes, or more simply the whole north American continent loaded with enough radioactive elements to destroy mankind, and it is not getting better, but worse. I wonder what in hell goes on in the minds of pronuclear activists? Yes, I know it is the accumulation of money, the goal of all materialists.

WHAT’S YOUR TAKE ON TRUMP?
2016 May 23 from Jerry
G. Edward, while visiting Daytona Beach, FL, last week-end,I bought a t-shirt [showing Trump on a motorcycle in a leather jacket] because I found it amusing and I am a Trump supporter. But now I read that he met with the #1 spokeman of the ‘power elite’ [Henry Kissinger] and he did not try to hide it.

What’s your take on this? Do you think he is giving in to the ‘new world order’ elite? He campaigned against the establishment and now he has met with the top one. Do you think that they got to him already?

REPLY FROM GEG:
Jerry, my take on all this is best expressed in Article Seven of The Creed of Freedom. By the way, this applies to all the presidential candidates, not just Trump. I can’t get excited over trying to choose the least tyrannical dictator of the Republic. Thanks for writing.

The money seagulls are heading to shore!

Sailors say that, when all the seagulls head to shore at once, it’s time to do the same. It’s a sure sign that a storm is on its way.

The following stories from this week’s news make it clear that some of the world’s biggest players in the financial markets are seeking secure ground as fast as they can. They are the ‘insiders’ who, not only have a clear view of what is happening in the economy, but some of them are the people who make it happen.

If you think you know what lies ahead better than these people, then these articles will waste your time. But if you think they may have a seagull-like instinct for coming financial storms, then pour yourself a cup of coffee and read these stories very, very carefully.

Billionaire George Soros is preparing for an economic storm. He has reduced his stock investments by 33% and increased his gold-mining holdings by $264 million. Central banks also are running to buy gold. China, which consumes 40% of all newly mined gold each year, recently bought Barclays’ precious-metals storage business. It is clear that these big players know something about the coming price of gold. RT 2016 May 18 (Story)

Gold and silver prices still are being rigged. Bullion banks, like JP Morgan Chase, are allowed to sell contracts for future delivery of precious metals far in excess of what they have. If you can sell something you do not have, you can sell as much of it as necessary to depress the price. It’s that simple. The current number of ounces sold in this fashion now is 500 times greater than what is actually available for delivery. When that bubble bursts – as it must – the splat will be enormous.

Curtis & Leroy saw an ad in the Starkville, MS, Daily and bought a mule for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the mule the next day. The next morning the farmer drove up and said, “Sorry, fellows, I have some bad news, the mule died last night.”

Curtis & Leroy replied, Well, then just give us our money back.” The farmer said, “Can’t do that. I went and spent it already.” They said, “OK then, just bring us the dead mule.”

The farmer asked, “What in the world ya’ll gonna do with a dead mule?” Curtis said, “We gonna raffle him off.”

The farmer said, “You can’t raffle off a dead mule!” Leroy said, “We sure can! Heck, we don’t hafta tell nobody he’s dead!”

A couple of weeks later, the farmer ran into Curtis & Leroy at the Piggly Wiggly grocery store and asked. “What’d you fellers ever do with that dead mule?”

They said, “We raffled him off like we said we wuz gonna do.” Leroy said, “Shucks, we sold 500 tickets fer two dollars apiece and made a profit of $898.”

The farmer said, “My Lord, didn’t anyone complain?” Curtis said, “Well, the feller who won got upset. So we gave him his two dollars back.”

Curtis and Leroy now work for the government. They’re overseeing the Medicare and Social Security Programs.

CHEMTRAIL THEORY
2016 May 7 from Laura Ludwig
I have been doing some dot connecting, and came up with a theory that chemtrails are more vindictive than we originally thought. Back in the 60’s there was a morning-sickness drug that caused mothers to give birth prematurely or have babies that were badly defective or even dead. When that was found out, they turned to vaccines and upped them to insanely dangerous levels, not that there was ever a sane level.

When people started complaining about vaccines, Monsanto poisoned-food was pushed and it, too, caused tumors, birth defects, premature births and even death. All the while, the government is pushing abortions on young unsuspecting mothers, and breaking up families.

Now they spray our skies with poisons, and the rates of birth defects and diseased children have skyrocketed in the past 20 years.

I do not think that the spraying is really intended to block the sun, I believe it is intended to destroy our next generation while, at the same time, making us sickly as well.

Thank you for your time and consideration of my theory,

WHY I AM RUNNING FOR CONGRESS
from Patrea Patrick
I have accepted the Freedom Force call to action. We all need to step up to the plate and run for office if we want to really make a difference in our government. It is our right and our duty. So I am running for Congress in the 30th District, California, San Fernando Valley. I need a campaign manager and anyone else who wants to help. My priority issues are to secure our freedom, harden the power grid against cyber hackers, terrorists, and EMP strikes, and get politics out of money and banking.

Titanic; A Perfect Crimetitanicbook

This novel explores little known facts of that famous tragedy and provides jaw-dropping insights to new discoveries that came with the finding of the 100-year-old ship wreck. The book’s scenario of what really happened that fateful night is amazingly consistent with the historical record. No other theory explains so many parts of the mystery. (More)

Facebook Technocrats are watching you

Two stories this week shine the spotlight on the world view of high-tech communications enterprises such as Facebook. Along with Google and mainstream media, Facebook wants, not just to report the news but to re-write the news and engineer public opinion about the news.

You may remember that, a few months ago, Google said it had a “responsibility” to program its search engine to filter out information and attitudes that it considered to be incorrect or from untrustworthy sources. That’s all for our protection, of course.

Facebook and Google also want to collect data on all human activity so they can sell it to marketers and spy agencies. In this pursuit, their executives and managers are not concerned over such a silly thing as privacy or security against political reprisal.

There will be no end to this trend until one of two things occurs: (1) The world will descend into a system where collectivism will be enforced by unseen masters, buildings full of technocrats at computer screens, and legions of enforcers with body armor, face shields, and electronic weapons, or (2) citizens will toss out of office all politicians who favor sacrificing privacy and liberty supposedly in the name of national security. The choice is still ours, but time to act is running out. (Freedom Force solution.)

Facebook employed a group of about 20 recent graduates from Ivy League schools to choose which stories are allowed to appear as “trending news”. Gizmo Magazine says they have clear evidence that, instead of reporting trends, they are creating trends. Conservative-leaning news stories are blacklisted. CBS News 2016 May 10 (Story)

Facebook was unable to obtain a dismissal of a lawsuit against it that challenges its ability to biometrically profile individuals using facial-recognition. Under Illinois’ Biometric Information Privacy Act, no one may collect biometric identifier, whether they be fingerprints, face prints, or DNA, without a person’s consent. A similar lawsuit was filed by Lindabeth Rivera after an Android smartphone automatically uploaded photographs to Google Photos, resulting in a biometric face print of Lindabeth for life. She was not a smartphone owner, making her an unwilling participant in the scheme. The results of these cases may be the deciding factor for years to come on whether tech companies can capture biometric data without our permission. Activist Post 2016 May 12 (Story) (Cached)

THIS WEEK IN REVIEW

The U.S. government has instructed all public school districts to allow transgender students to use bathrooms that match their gender identity rather than their actual sex. The letter, signed by officials from the Education and Justice departments, does not have the force of law but contains an implicit threat that schools that do not abide by the directive could face lawsuits or loss of federal aid. Reuters 2016 May 13 (Story) (Cached)

The Confessions of Congressman-X is a new book written by an anonymous U.S. Congressman that provides a close-up view of corrupt politicians who are interested only in re-election and who are the willing servants of lobbyists. Voters are described as gullible, know-nothing jerks, while the only people who count are the big donors who pour billions of dollars into lobbying. He calls the federal government a casino that receives over $3-billion in bribes every year to stack the deck against honest players. NY Post 2016 May 13 (Story) (Cached)

A Wyoming farmer was hit with $16-million in fines by the federal EPA for building a stock pond for which he already had received a permit from the State. After standing his ground, his case went to a federal court that ruled in his favor. Under Supreme Court precedent, the federal government can regulate waters only if they have a “significant nexus” to navigable waters, which was not the case for this pond.

Wall Street Analyst Charles Ortel has discovered that the Clinton Foundation’s contribution disclosures do not match up with individual donors’ records. He also found that the Foundation is not in compliance with state laws regarding fundraising registration, disclosure requirements, and auditing rules. Nations that have donated to the Foundation have been rewarded handsomely by the State Department. Allen B West 2016 May 9 (Story) (Cached)

A recent study by Shir Hever, an Israeli economist, shows that at least 78% of all humanitarian aid intended for Palestinians ends up in Israel’s coffers. Hever says that donors are indirectly subsidizing up to a third of Israel’s cost to occupy Palestine. The World Bank estimated that the Palestinians lose at least $3.4 billion a year in resources diverted to Israel. Mondoweiss posted 2016 May 9 (Story) (Cached)

UK: The Department for International Development reported that, since 2011, as much as $7.35 million in British aid to supposedly moderate rebels in Syria was diverted to ISIS. In 2013, the DFID admitted that almost $720,000 of its aid and equipment had reached the al-Qaeda-linked al-Shabab militants based in Somalia.

Dead Harvest is a documentary film that shows how environmentalists and politicians are deliberately causing a water shortage in California’s central valley. This is part of a long-standing plan to destroy agricultural production, cause unemployment, and cripple the economy. This is being done in the name of saving some fish, but the real goal is the destruction of capitalism, private property, and independence. You must see this film, because this same plan is being executed all across America. National Alliance for Environmental Reform posted 2016 May 7 (Story)

CHEMTRAIL THEORY
2016 May 7 from Laura Ludwig
I have been doing some dot connecting, and came up with a theory that chemtrails are more vindictive than we originally thought. Back in the 60’s there was a morning-sickness drug that caused mothers to give birth prematurely or have babies that were badly defective or even dead. When that was found out, they turned to vaccines and upped them to insanely dangerous levels, not that there was ever a sane level.

When people started complaining about vaccines, Monsanto poisoned-food was pushed and it, too, caused tumors, birth defects, premature births and even death. All the while, the government is pushing abortions on young unsuspecting mothers, and breaking up families.

Now they spray our skies with poisons, and the rates of birth defects and diseased children have skyrocketed in the past 20 years.

I do not think that the spraying is really intended to block the sun, I believe it is intended to destroy our next generation while, at the same time, making us sickly as well.

Thank you for your time and consideration of my theory,

THE GOAL IS MONEY, NOT CURE
posted 2016 May 5 from Olo
Suspend disbelief for a moment. I have been studying these methods for 10 years now, particularly in the web page www.cancertutor.com, which is a must Text Book for anybody who wants or needs to know other methods to cure cancer. They empower every person to do much more than the traditional methods. Why traditional medicine and government do not make this available to you? Very simple, the income of the medical establishment due to cancer would fall by about 80 or 90 % … no more lavish life styles if people can cure themselves. But it is not only a matter of cost … it is a matter of survival and not suffering with the treatment.

The cashless society is under construction

Two news stories this week are huge reminders that the cashless society already is under construction throughout the Western world.
I have added the word Western, because there are rumblnigs from Middle-Eastern countries that Islamic scholars are now working on a new interpretation of Sharia Law to allow gold to be used in commerce. So, while the West is moving toward a digital fiat system, the East is headed in the opposite direction with the intent of placing precious metals at the center of all monetary transactions. What a tragedy for the West.

The European Central Bank has announced it will stop issuing the €500 euro note by 2018, using the excuse that these notes often are used for illegal activities. A financial expert says that the move benefits the banks because people will find it more convenient to keep their money in the bank and it sets the stage for a cashless society with negative interest rates. Reuters 2016 May 5 (Story)

Last month, more than 100 executives from some of the biggest financial institutions, including Nasdaq, Citigroup, Visa, Fidelity, Capital One, and Pfizer met in secret for the unveiling of a proposed digital money system that converts US dollars into digital currency. Promoters say this will reduce crime and corruption, but the real attraction for this group is its role in a cashless society. If there is no currency, then money will exist only in the computers of banks, which means that every transaction – even the payment of a child’s allowance – will generate a bank transaction fee. Your money also will be forever available for confiscation for bank bail-ins and government taxes and fines. These guys can hardly wait. Economic Collapse 2016 May 2 (Story) (Cached)

THIS WEEK IN REVIEW

Indiana: Anti vote-fraud activist and Trump supporter, Gary Welsh, was found dead just before the Indiana primary in the stairwell of an apartment with a gun next to him. Police quickly ruled it a suicide. An ominous message was posted on his blog before his death hinting that he may not be around to see the election results. Welsh claimed that Senator Marco Rubio attended gay ‘foam parties’ in the 1990’s and provided photos of the event. He also provided photographic evidence that Senator Rubio’s father had worked with Oswald and was involved in the JFK assassination. Yup. Suicide, for sure. InfoWars 2016 May 6 (Story)

Baghdad, Iraq: The US is sending 25 heavily armed Marines to defend the American embassy. This is in response to hundreds of protestors breaking into the international ‘Green Zone’ last week where politicians are headquartered. Protests have been led by a Shi’ite cleric. CNN 2016 May 6 (Story)

Greenpeace leaked 248 pages of the secret Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) treaty that show how it will destroy jobs, food safety, and online privacy. Following France’s refusal to endorse the treaty, a poll in Germany showed that 70% of its citizens also oppose the TTIP. Support for the deal is falling apart in the US – and the UK as well.

Washington State: Three more workers were hospitalized after inhaling radioactive fumes at the Hanford Nuclear Plant. Last week, 19 workers were sent for radiation evaluations after being exposed to a leaking nuclear-waste tank. Hanford stores 2/3 of America’s nuclear waste, a total of 56 million gallons, and the system is gradually falling into disrepair. RT 2016 May 4 (Story)

New Mexico: For decades, the Los Alamos Nuclear Laboratory has discharged water from its cooling towers into Sandia Canyon. The towers are lined with chromium, which has led to the creation of a mile-long, underground chromium deposit that now threatens an aquifer, drinking water, and tribal lands. High levels of chromium can cause cancer. To neutralize this contamination will cost hundreds of millions of dollars. RT 2016 May 4 (Story)

Detroit: Nearly three years following the city’s record-setting bankruptcy, residents face a continuing and growing crisis over lack of money. City officials say they must turn off water service to as many as 20,000 households that have failed to pay their water bills. If that’s not cataclysmic enough, for a second straight day, nearly all public schools were closed after teachers called in sick in a wage dispute. 47,000 students have no school to attend.

The Johnson & Johnson company was hit with a $55-million judgment based on evidence that its talcum powder was a primary cause of the plaintiff’s cervical cancer. This follows a similar jury verdict in February for $72-million in the case of another woman who had cervical cancer and died from it. The company denies responsibility, but an expert witness said that there have been 20 studies that indicate talc is carcinogenic. There are more than a thousand more cases pending.

A class-action lawsuit for false advertising has been filed against Quaker Oats after traces of the pesticide glyphosate were found in samples of oatmeal. The complaint is not that the levels were thought to be dangerous, but that the company was not telling the truth when it labeled the product as 100% natural. Glyphosate is the active ingredient in Monsanto’s weed-killer, Roundup. Plaintiffs are seeking refunds and asking PepsiCo (Quaker’s parent company) either to reformulate the product or disclose the presence of glyphosate in it. Eater 2016 May 2 (Story) (Cached)

US Senator Charles Schumer is calling for a federal probe into the practices of a billboard advertising company that uses electronic devices inside its billboards to extract data from the smartphones of people walking or driving by. The company says it gathers no information about their identities, just their purchase and travel patterns. Critics, however, point out that it is an easy matter to merge this information with data obtained from other sources to discover personal identities. IB Times 2016 May 2 (Story) (Cached)

NATO will send four battalions of ground troops, a force of about 4,000 soldiers, to the Russian border along the Baltic.

US: The House Armed Services Committee approved an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act that now requires women to register with the Selective Service. If Congress brings back the draft, women will be conscripted the same as men. Some people support the draft in hopes that it will cause opposition to aggressive wars. However, Ron Paul argues that this will not happen until people recognize and reject the war propaganda from the military-industrial complex and mainstream media. RPI 2016 May 1 (Story) (Cached)

Zwickau, Germany: Angry protesters shut down the pro-refugee speech of Federal Justice Minister Heiko Maas and then chased him into the streets. The leftist leaders who opened Germany’s borders are complaining that the speaker’s right to free speech was violated. However, Maas, himself, is an advocate of censorship laws that classify opposition to mass immigration as “hate speech” and, for that, he demands persecution, fines, and jail-time.

Kunduz, Afghanistan: The US military bombed a ‘Doctors Without Borders’ hospital in October, 2015, killing 42 people. Initially, the government denied the charge but, later, changed its story and blocked an independent investigation. It now says it was a tragic accident. The Intercept 2016 Apr 29 (Story) (Cached)

Aleppo, Syria: A ‘Doctors Without Borders’ hospital was bombed last week, killing at least fourteen people, including three doctors. Rebel groups, backed by the US, blamed the attack on Syrian or Russian forces, but are not sure which. Russia denies involvement, and Syria has nothing to gain from such an attack. This appears to be part of an ongoing false-flag operation in which the only benefit is to blame the attacks on one’s enemy so as to engineer public opinion. RT posted 2016 Apr 30 (Story) (Cached)

Insurance companies participating in Obamacare are set to collect $5 billion in taxpayer bailouts in spite of the fact that Congress passed a law in 2014 that expressly forbids it. Obama’s attorneys devised a scheme in which insurance companies were invited to sue the government for their losses. The next step is for the government to put up such feeble resistance that the suits undoubtedly would be decided in favor of the insurance companies. The final step is for the government to pay the settlements which, although they would be equal to the amount of a bailout, would be classified for accounting purposes as legal settlements instead. If Congress and the public allow this scheme to succeed, Congress will no longer have control over government expenses. CNS News 2016 May 3 (Story) (Cached)

Suspend disbelief for a moment. I have been studying these methods for 10 years now, particularly in the web page www.cancertutor.com, which is a must Text Book for anybody who wants or needs to know other methods to cure cancer. They empower every person to do much more than the traditional methods. Why traditional medicine and government do not make this available to you? Very simple, the income of the medical establishment due to cancer would fall by about 80 or 90 % … no more lavish life styles if people can cure themselves. But it is not only a matter of cost … it is a matter of survival and not suffering with the treatment.

HEALTH STARTS WITH A PHILOSOPHY
2016 May 4 from Bert Maupin
Mr. Griffin: As I see it, the basis of health is a proper philosophical outlook. Our youths must be made aware of the gifts they have been given. The gift of a fantastic thing called a human body; the gift of a beautiful earth and all it contains; and the gift of twenty four hours each day. The proper response to be given gifts is appreciation. But too many only use their gifts for their own titillations and ego service; and they/we reap the consequences.

The nuclear age is aging

The debate over the merits and demerits of nuclear energy is as heated as ever (pun intended). Back in the 60’s and 70’s, I was aware that there were critics of nuclear power who spoke passionately about the dangers of radiation leaks, meltdowns, and severe health hazards, but who had other agendas that were not so praiseworthy.

The coal and oil industries, for example, knew that nuclear power could put them out of business. The best way to eliminate that competition was to get on the “safety” bandwagon to generate public and political opposition to nuclear power. They played a significant role in funding the anti-nuclear-power movement in those days.

Another example was the block of Leninist countries, led by the Soviet Union and, later, by China, who used fear of nuclear energy as a psychological weapon to cause the American people, themselves, to inhibit the ability of their own country to remain competitive on the world stage.

I learned that nuclear power was no more dangerous, and perhaps less so, than the generation of power by coal. That was hard to believe, at first, due to the fact that nuclear accidents are so much more sudden, dramatic, and visual than the unseen, slow deaths of thousands and thousands of cancer and lung-disease victims who succumb to the long-term inhalation of soot and invisible toxic gases – and have no idea they are victims of coal energy.

In more recent times, cleaner emissions have reduced this factor, but there also are newly developed measures, available at reasonable cost, to help people get rid of radiation toxicity, so the score is fairly balanced on that issue.

The nuclear-power industry is playing this game just as aggressively as its opponents. It has a long history of getting governments (tax-payers) to cover their investment risks and losses, and they shamelessly ignore real safety issues, knowing that, if they make the necessary repairs and upgrades, the cost must be paid by them but, if they wait until there is a disaster, the cost will be picked up by taxpayers.

The point here is, not that one type of power generation is better, safer, or more efficient than the others, but that most of the contestants in the arena have axes to grind that have little to do with safety or efficiency. They talk about these things and they produce reams of statistics to prove their points, but their primary concern is the money that will flow into their pockets.

There are three stories in this weeks’ news that touch on the hidden cost of nuclear power. I hope this brief analysis of the larger issues will put these stories into context of why things are unfolding as they are.

G. Edward Griffin
2016 April 29

Belgium: The government will distribute iodine pills to its population of 11-million people to help protect them against radiation in case of a nuclear-reactor meltdown. Germany has requested that two of Belgium’s aging nuclear reactors be shut down following a series of problems from defective pressure vessels, metal degradation, and fires. IB Times 2016 Apr 29 (Story) (Cached)

Defects in Israel’s nuclear reactor spark a secrecy dilemma. A recent study uncovered 1,537 defects in the decades-old core of the Dimona nuclear reactor, where it is believed that Israel produced its nuclear weapons. Israel has refused to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, which would authorize it to build another reactor, but the government does not want to disclose what nuclear weapons it has, so it has chosen a calculated risk that could lead to a national disaster. AFP 2016 Apr 28 (Story) (Cached)

Kiev, Ukraine: In 1986, the Chernobyl nuclear plant was quickly embedded in a concrete sarcophagus to stop radioactive leaks following its meltdown. However, the leaks have continued and, now, the reactor building is getting a $1.5 billion containment shelter that will encase the old sarcophagus. [The significance of this story is twofold: (1) The building and placement of this gigantic structure is impressive, and (2) when considered in context of the enormous cost of patching up failed reactors at Fukushima and Three-Mile Island, we are mindful that the long-term cost of nuclear energy may be higher than the publicized figures indicate, which do not include the cost of inevitable disasters. This is especially important in the US where most of the nation’s aging reactors are operating long past the termination dates for which they were designed.] AFP 2016 Apr 25 (Story)

Obama released 19,723 illegal-alien criminals, including rapists, sex offenders, and 200 murderers back onto the streets of American cities after their prison sentences ended instead of deporting them. GOP frontrunner, Donald Trump, has made the deportation of illegal aliens a key part of his campaign and says he would deport up to 11 million without court hearings, because the immigrants are in the US illegally. Brietbart 2016 Apr 28 (Story) (Cached)

China passed new laws to crack down on foreign non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that it believes are fronts for other governments trying to interfere with China’s internal social and political life. [This story has mixed overtones. First, the Chinese Communist government is well known for its intolerance of citizen dissent and its quickness to label any person or group that criticizes the government as a tool of foreign enemies. Second, it also is well known that the US government does, indeed, use NGOs as fronts to interfere in other nations by affecting elections and even fomenting revolution. This time, we are inclined to agree with China’s determination to defend its sovereignty, but that does not mean we agree with what it does with that sovereignty.] Reuters 2016 Apr 28 (Story) (Cached)

Venezuela: The government more than doubled the supply of money in 2015, so it is certain that the country’s hyperinflation will continue. The cost of printing small bank notes is higher than the value of the notes, but the government refuses to print larger denominations because that would confirm that there is an inflation problem. The collectivist country now is so broke that it may not have enough money to pay for its money. ZeroHedge 2016 Apr 27 (Story) (Cached)

US: Former House Speaker Dennis Hastert was sentenced to 15-months in prison for illegally structuring bank transactions to conceal payments to a man who was sexually abused by Hastert decades ago when he was a high school student, and Hastert was his wrestling coach. The statute of limitations prevented prosecution for sexual abuse but not for violation of tax laws. CBS News 2016 Apr 27 (Story)

Monsanto claims that its pesticide glyphosate, also known as RoundUp Ready, can make crops more uniform and produce higher yields. Because of that claim, even some non- GMO food producers are spraying it on their crops. Therefore, if a food is labeled ‘non-GMO’, there is no guarantee that is has not been saturated in glyphosate. The best bet is to buy organic. Natural News 2016 Apr 27 (Story) (Cached)

Boston, Massachusetts: Harvard University reported that 40 students have been infected with the Mumps despite all of them having been vaccinated, as required by the school. Instead of questioning the effectiveness of the vaccine, school officials followed the party line that the vaccine is wonderful but (are you ready for this?) the students, themselves, are to blame because they exposed others to the virus. [Huh? If a vaccine does not make a person immune to the disease when exposed to it, then what is it good for? Answer: mega-profit to the vaccine industry and those who serve it.] Harvard Crimson 2016 Apr 26 (Story) (Cached)

Independent reporter Lisa Haven reviews the International Monetary Fund’s Articles of Agreement and reveals that it is nothing less than a license to lie, cheat, steal, have immunity against prosecution for any act, no matter how vile, avoid all taxes, and to do everything in total secrecy. If you ever wondered what the view is like from the top of the pyramid of the New World Order, you will see it here. LH News posted 2016 Apr 26 (Story)

Kansas Governor, Sam Brownback, announced that his state is withdrawing from plans to resettle Syrian refugees. This is in reaction to failure of the Federal government to provide security information on them. More than thirty governors have attempted to block refugees from their states but, so far, courts and attorneys general have said that security and settlement issues are the prerogative of the federal government. Reuters 2016 Apr 26 (Story) (Cached)

The US Supreme Court has ruled that Iran is to blame for terrorist attacks against Americans. Therefore, $2-billion of Iranian assets, that have been frozen in the US, is to be used to compensate American victims. Iran threatened to take the case to the International Court of Justice. Additionally, a court in New York levied a $10-billion judgment against Iran, claiming that it was involved in the 9/11 attacks. It is not clear, however, how that judgment is to be collected.

The great cholesterol scam finally begins to unravel. A study from researchers at the Universities of North Carolina and Illinois confirms that avoiding saturated fats in the diet to reduce cholesterol levels provides zero health benefit. There is no connection at all between polyunsaturated fat consumption and risk of heart disease. Statin drugs to depress cholesterol levels may be the next scam to be exposed. Natural News 2016 Apr 25 (Story) (Cached)

The UN Security Council rejected Israel’s demand that the UN recognize the Golan Heights as the legitimate territory of Israel. The Golan Heights was taken from Syria in the Six Day War in 1967. Israel says it is essential for its military security. However, large oil reserves were discovered there in 2015, which makes it a great economic prize. A UN resolution in 2006 acknowledged the sovereignty of the Arab population over their natural resources in the Syrian Golan Heights, and any move by Israel to take the oil likely will be considered by the international community as theft. Gulf News 2016 Apr 25 (Story) (Cached)

California: The health of marine animals has been in steep decline for three years, and many sea lions recently have been found sick, covered in sores, and starving due to a loss in cold-water food. Sea lion pups are stunted. [Ironically, there is not a word in this article about the radioactive Fukushima flotsam that, for several years, has arrived at the coast of California up to Washington State. To mention that fact would be politically incorrect.] ENE News 2016 Apr 25 (Story) (Cached)

President Obama is sending 250 more Special Forces ‘trainers’ to Syria (against the wishes of the Syrian government) supposedly to help anti-government rebels fight against ISIS. [It is well known, however, that the real objective is to topple the present regime.] The Pentagon was forced to abandon its previous training program that cost US tax payers $500 million but produced only a handful of soldiers. RT 2016 Apr 25 (Story)

Austria: Citizens, angered by mass immigration, are supporting the anti-immigration far-right party. For the first time since 1945, Austria will not have a president from either the center-left Social Democrats or the center-right People’s Party. Norbert Hofer, the far-right candidate who received 37% of the vote, says he packs a Glock to protect himself from refugees. He supports exiting the EU, wants to deport all foreigners, and advocates prohibiting women from wearing head scarves. PJ Media 2016 Apr 24 (Story) (Cached)

The Chinese government is cracking down on parents protesting vaccines. Parents are angry over a recent scandal involving the distribution of $90-million worth of expired vaccines, which they believe is responsible for illness and debilitating conditions in their children. The government is countering with a media campaign to discredit the parents and with intimidation and arrests to break their solidarity.

ANALYSIS

News and commentaries that reveal historical facts and trends that place current events into perspective and make it possible to anticipate future events.

 

The government of New Zealand is planning to deny local communities the right to choose whether or not to fluoridate their water systems. This action was triggered by the success of an organization called Fluoride-Free NZ, which has convinced many local governments to reject fluoridation. Only 23 of 67 local councils are still fluoridating. [There now is overwhelming evidence that drinking fluoridated water does NOT reduce tooth decay, as its promoters claim, and it is extremely toxic as well. However, the strongest argument against its use in public water systems is that, even though politicians may be voted into office, they have no right to compel us to undergo a medical treatment. That is a choice that should be ours. If people want to take fluoride supplements, they can do so for a few cents a day, but the rest of us should not have to seek private water supplies to avoid medication we do not want. It is our suspicion that the hidden hands that promote fluoridated water belong to those who seek to reduce global population by reducing fertility. Reduced fertility is one of the effects of fluorides. Fluoridated communities have lower birth rates than non-fluoridated. This issue has little to do with dental caries.] InfoWars 2016 Apr 28 (Story) (Cached)

Goldman Sachs is opening a new bank online to attract depositors. It appears that this is in response to a rule from the Federal Reserve that requires banks to hold highly liquid assets (those that can be converted into cash quickly) to meet short-term obligations when those banks face losses from their bad loans. [The experts in this report have nothing to say about the recent Fed approval of ‘bail-ins’, which will allow banks to take money from depositors’ accounts to cover bank losses. Since the potential losses are large, customer deposits to cover those losses must be equally large. That is the reason Goldman Sachs, which traditionally deals heavily in derivatives rather than consumer checking accounts, now must scramble to attract cash deposits. In short, that cash will be the source of the next legalized plunder of Americans. That is the part of the story not mentioned in this report.] Bloomberg 2016 Apr 26 (Story)

Islamic migrants in the UK are creating their own courts under Sharia Law. Muslims who refuse to participate in a Sharia court are targeted for intimidation and violence. [We are not advocates of Sharia law, especially if the definition of ‘law’ includes the application or intimidation or violence to enforce it. However, if compliance is voluntary and, if the law is based on one’s religious convictions, how is it different from Christians who voluntarily follow church doctrine, instead of government laws, on such issues as marriage and divorce? Should that, too, be forbidden? Send your views here.] InfoWars 2016 Apr 25 (Story)

HUMOR

Need to Know is as serious as it gets, but laughter is good for the soul and helps to keep our equilibrium amid the chaos. So, here are quips, gags, and images to put a smile on your face. If you have some you would like to share, please send them here.

GREAT TRUTHS CHILDREN HAVE LEARNED
1) No matter how hard you try, you can’t baptize cats.
2) When your Mom is mad at your Dad, don’t let her brush your hair.
3) If your sister hits you, don’t hit her back. They always catch the second person.
4) Never ask your 3-year old brother to hold a tomato.
5) You can’t trust dogs to watch your food.
6) You can’t hide a piece of broccoli in a glass of milk.

GREAT TRUTHS ADULTS HAVE LEARNED
1) Raising teenagers is like nailing jello to a tree.
2) Wrinkles don’t hurt.
3) Families are like fudge…mostly sweet, with a few nuts.
4) Today’s mighty oak is just yesterday’s nut that held its ground.
5) Laughing is good exercise. It’s like jogging on the inside.
6) Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fiber, not the toy.

GREAT TRUTHS ABOUT GROWING OLD
1) Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional.
2) Forget the health food. You need all the preservatives you can get.
3) When you fall down, you wonder what else you can do while you’re down there.
4) It’s frustrating when you know all the answers, but nobody bothers to ask you the questions.
5) Time may be a great healer, but it’s a lousy beautician.
6) Wisdom comes with age, but sometimes age comes alone.

GREAT TRUTHS ABOUT SUCCESS
At age 4 success is . . . . Not piddling in your pants.
At age 12 success is . . . . Having friends.
At age 17 success is . . . . Having a driver’s license.
At age 35 success is . . . . Having money.
At age 50 success is . . . . Having money.
At age 70 success is . . . . Having a drivers license.
At age 75 success is . . . . Having friends.
At age 80 success is . . . . Not piddling in your pants.

I have accepted the Freedom Force call to action. We all need to step up to the plate and run for office if we want to really make a difference in our government. It is our right and our duty. So I am running for Congress in the 30th District, California, San Fernando Valley. I need a campaign manager and anyone else who wants to help. My priority issues are to secure our freedom, harden the power grid against cyber hackers, terrorists, and EMP strikes, and get politics out of money and banking.

Titanic; A Perfect Crimetitanicbook

This novel explores little known facts of that famous tragedy and provides jaw-dropping insights to new discoveries that came with the finding of the 100-year-old ship wreck. The book’s scenario of what really happened that fateful night is amazingly consistent with the historical record. No other theory explains so many parts of the mystery. (More)

“There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters.” 

Return to news Quotes archive

This is what happens when the warning is ignored

THE WARNING:
In his 1796 Farewell address, George Washington, the First President of the United States, said: “Observe good faith and justice toward all nations. Cultivate peace and harmony with all. … Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake, since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government. The great rule of conduct for us in regard to foreign nations is, in extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible.”

THE CONSEQUENCES of ignoring that advice are painfully evident in this this week’s news:

The late Saudi foreign minister, Prince Saud al-Faisal, told John Kerry in 2014, ‘Daesh [ISIS] is our response to your support for the Da’wa – the Tehran-aligned Shia Islamist ruling party of Iraq’ after the city of Mosul fell to the US military offensive. In other words, the Saudis created ISIS in response to US intervention in the region that shifted the balance of power to Iran. According to a CIA document, the US approved of this plan and intended to use ISIS to topple Syrian President Assad. ZeroHedge 2016 Apr 20 (Story) (Cached)

In this discussion led by Ron Paul, we learn that the Saudis now admit they first created al-Qaeda and then ISIS. They did this in response to the US attack on Iraq, which gave a political advantage to Iran. Creating terrorist movements, they say, was a countermeasure to weaken their enemies and protect their interests in the region. But the plot thickens. The CIA followed the same strategy when it helped create the Mujahideen in Afghanistan to counter the 1979 Soviet invasion. The bigger picture here is that interventionism, regardless of who initiates it, almost always backfires and causes unintended consequences as bad or worse than those it is intended to avoid. All of this is related to the 28-page confidential report on Saudi connections to 9/11 that may soon be made public. Ron Paul Institute 2016 Apr 21 (Story)

THIS WEEK IN REVIEW

Over the past week at the Hanford Nuclear facility in eastern Washington, 3,000 gallons of nuclear material leaked from a defective inner shell of a double-shell storage tank into its outer shell. The facility was built in 1943 to accommodate plutonium production for World War II. Despite assurances by the US department of Energy and the Washington State Department of Ecology that the leak poses no risk to the public, a former employee (who was the one who first reported the leak) says it is catastrophic.

Here are a few recent so-called hate crimes that turned out to be hoaxes: A gay preacher claimed that the staff at a Whole Foods store wrote ‘fag’ on his cake, but evidence from the surveillance camera indicates that he himself wrote it to draw attention to discrimination. Another example occurred at Kean University in New Jersey where a black student made death threats to all black students but later admitted she did it in order to generate enthusiasm for her racial-injustice rally.

Could it be outrage at the spread of polio by the vaccines?] Shanghai Daily 2016 Apr 20 (Story) (Cached)

Michigan: A District Judge accepted charges against three state and local officials involved in the Flint water-pollution tragedy in which tens of thousands of people were poisoned. This is the first time a public official has been charged with a crime in this matter. The defendants are charged with tampering with evidence and other crimes. Governor Rick Snyder has refused to resign but promised to drink Flint water for a month to prove it is safe. RT 2016 Apr 20 (Story)

The World Health Organization is calling for the destruction of the triple-strain, live-virus, oral, polio vaccine because it can cause polio. Last year, 100 cases of polio were reported, and 30 of them were caused by the vaccine. David Knight reports that authorities are trying to cover up the fact that the vaccine causes the disease it claims to cure. InfoWars 2016 Apr 19 (Story)

Here is another report on the fact that the 3-strain oral polio vaccine is a primary cause of polio. It is significant, however, in that it is released by a strongly pro-Big-Pharma publication. Even though it states the facts in the most pro-vaccine way possible (“Don’t worry, folks. We now have a better vaccine.”) the truth is in the story nevertheless: Within the last 10 years, there have been 725 cases of polio paralysis, and 90% of those were caused by the vaccine.

Deutsche Bank admitted it conspired to rig gold and silver prices. In addition to paying fines, the bank also agreed to expose others participating in the price-fixing scheme.

In response to lawsuits filed by gold and silver traders, Deutsche Bank has reached financial settlements for manipulating gold and silver prices.

ANALYSIS

News and commentaries that reveal historical facts and trends that place current events into perspective and make it possible to anticipate future events.

 

A team of Oregon State University experts found that blue-green algae contains a compound, called coibamide A, that cuts off the ability of cancer cells to communicate with blood vessels, causing cancer to die. It is effective against two of the most aggressive forms of the disease: brain tumors and triple-negative breast cancer. [It is fascinating to read how researchers, having found something in nature that works against cancer, immediately set out, not to grow the algae and mass-produce it, but to find out how it works so they can create a synthetic version in the laboratory. That’s because anything in nature cannot be patented, which means low profit. Synthetics, on the other hand, are patentable and can become the source of fantastic profit margins. That’s why nothing from nature, no matter how effective it is, will ever be approved by the pharmaceutical industry for cancer therapy. All of that becomes painfully obvious in this article.] DailyMail posted 2016 Apr 21 (Story) (Cached)

US: Last week, the Federal Reserve scheduled an unprecedented number of secret meetings, including an emergency meeting with Obama. Bank insolvency has surfaced once again, this time because of over-extended credit to oil companies. As many as 60% of the loans to these companies are about to go into default – as a result of depressed global oil prices. The author of this analysis believes there is little that the banks and the government can do now to prevent a total collapse of the system. He may be right, but we should not forget that depressed oil prices appear to be motivated, not by free-market competition, but by political intervention from Washington as an economic weapon against Russia and her allies. The outcome of these secret meetings, therefore, possibly could involve an end to low oil prices. Even that, however, will not solve the problem of bank insolvency – which, literally, is not solvable without tax subsidies – or allowing the corrupt banks to fail. Therefore, there is little doubt that the near future of the US will see bank bail-ins, negative interest rates, and an end to large-denomination US currency, all which will force Americans to keep their monetary wealth in bank accounts where they can be legally and easily plundered by banks to keep them in operation.

Here is Ron Paul’s analysis of the recent flurry of secret meetings between Obama and the Federal Reserve banking cartel. Paul concludes that Congress must cut spending, and the Fed must be audited and then abolished. Ron Paul Institute 2016 Apr 17 (Story) (Cached)

The Federal Reserve and FDIC issued a 19-page letter to Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JP Morgan Chase, claiming that the bank’s lack of a credible plan for winding down if the bank should fail poses a threat to ‘the financial stability of the United States’. Morgan Chase is the country’s largest bank and has $2 trillion in assets. Large as that may seem, it is frail support for its $51 trillion in derivatives. (Derivatives are bets on the future value of something else. They have no intrinsic value of their own.) That means a slump of only four percent in the market value of derivatives would cause Morgan to be bankrupt. [Keep in mind, however, that a ‘credible plan to unwind’ in the event of failure could include such mechanisms as negative interest rates, bail-outs, bail-ins, and other manifestations of legalized plunder. Don’t think for a second that the Federal Reserve is the White Hat in this story. It is merely insisting that all banks get their plans in place for the next big move.] Wall Street On Parade posted 2016 Apr 16 (Story) (Cached)

Except for the date, George Orwell saw the future (our present) with amazing clarity. My first thought was to bring all of this week’s stories together that illustrate the theme of his book, 1984, but there were so many, it would have made this editorial section larger than the news section. So, let’s keep it short and simple: Orwell was an optimist.

GREATEST INSURANCE FRAUD IN HISTORY?
2016 April 14 from Patrea Patrick
Hello Ed. Thank you for writing such a great foreword to my book, Titanic; A Perfect Crime. The anniversary of Titanic’s demise is upon us. As I was reflecting on the grim fate of those who went down in the bitter-cold ocean that night, I recalled this cartoon commentary on our present time.

IF TITANIC HAD SUNK IN 2016


Titanic is full of intrigue. When she sank, sending 1,500 people to their watery graves, it was called an accident and an act of God. But, as you know, it was no accident. It was an act of Man – one man in particular, JP Morgan. It was the greatest insurance fraud in history.

I am delighted by the brisk sales of the book on the Reality Zone site. Thanks for giving it visibility.

PUT ME IN CHARGE
posted 2016 April 2
This was in the Waco Tribune Herald, Waco, TX

Put me in charge of food stamps. No cash for Ding Dongs or Ho Ho’s, just money for 50-pound bags of rice and beans, blocks of cheese, and all the powdered milk you can haul away. If you want steak and frozen pizza, then get a job.

Put me in charge of Medicaid. Then, we’ll test recipients for drugs, alcohol, and nicotine. If you want to use drugs, alcohol, or smoke, then get a job.

Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in a military barracks? You will maintain our property in a clean and good state of repair. Your “home” will be subject to inspections anytime, and possessions will be inventoried. If you want a plasma TV or Xbox 360, then get a job and your own place.

In addition, you will either present a check stub from a job each week or you will report to a “government” job. It may be cleaning the roadways of trash, painting and repairing public housing, whatever we find for you. We will sell your 22-inch rims and low profile tires and your blasting stereo and speakers and put that money toward the “common good.”

Before you write that I’ve violated someone’s rights, realize that all of the above is voluntary. If you want our money, accept our rules.Before you say that this would be “demeaning” and ruin their “self-esteem,” consider that it wasn’t that long ago that taking someone else’s money for doing absolutely nothing was demeaning and lowered self-esteem.

If we are expected to pay for other people’s mistakes, we should at least attempt to make them learn from their bad choices. The current system rewards them for continuing to make bad choices.

While you are on Gov’t subsistence, you no longer can VOTE! Yes, that is correct. For you to vote would be a conflict of interest. You will voluntarily remove yourself from voting while you are receiving a Gov’t welfare check. If you want to vote, then get a job.

The US Department of Agriculture is allowing the introduction of genetically modified foods without testing for safety because of a regulation loophole. Testing is required only if new genetic material is introduced into food. The latest technology, however, involves, not the introduction of new genes, but the alteration of existing ones. Hence, no testing. Under obedience to the GMO industry, which heavily lobbies national and state legislators, government regulators are simply looking the other way. Quartz 2016 Apr 15 (Story) (Cached)

California has asked the federal government to approve Obamacare for illegal aliens through its state-run exchanges. Immigrants who earn too much money to qualify for Medi-Cal health welfare and federally-funded health emergency programs would qualify for Obamacare. The LA Times made the absurd claim that it will not cost state or federal taxpayers a dime. IB Times 2016 Apr 14 (Story) (Cached)

Two Russian jets made close-range, low-altitude passes over a US ship, the USS Donald Cook, as it engaged in war games in the Baltic Sea. That’s in Russia’s backyard. K2P 2016 Apr 14 (Story) (Cached)

The US is preparing a ‘Plan B’ for Syria if/when the current cease-fire agreement is violated. The plan is to arm Syrian opposition forces with anti-aircraft weapons. Those, of course, will be a threat to Russian pilots when the shooting war resumes. The CIA has hinted that rebels already have MANPAD anti-aircraft weapons in their possession. RT 2016 Apr 13 (Story)

The US State Department reports that Israel is applying ‘excessive use of force’ against Palestinians in the occupied territories. Half of the Palestinian killed who were described as ‘attackers’ weren’t attacking anyone. Instead, they were killed at demonstrations or during routine operations, and posed no threat when they were killed. AntiWar 2016 Apr 13 (Story) (Cached)

Robert DeNiro, after pulling the anti-vaccine film, Vaxxed, from his Tribeca Film Festival, now says he regrets that decision. He says it is an important film, and people should see it. [He offered no explanation of why he removed it from the event, leading to speculation that he was threatened – perhaps by legal action by vaccine makers.] Us Weekly 2016 Apr 13 (Story)

US: Uber, the ride-sharing company, said that between July and December 2015, it provided requested information to government agencies on more than 12-million riders and drivers. Reuters 2016 Apr 12 (Story) (Cached)

US: Strawberries now are the most contaminated crop. 98% of conventionally grown strawberries had detectable pesticide residues. 40% had 10 or more pesticide residues. [The word ‘organic’ is sounding better every day.] Fox Business 2016 Apr 12 (Story) (Cached)

A UN report says that one-fifth of suicide bombers from the militant group Boko Haram are children, and the majority are girls. In 2015, 44 children carried out suicide bombings in Nigeria, Cameroon, Niger and Chad, compared to four in 2014. It is believed that the girls are from the group of 276 who were kidnapped in Nigeria two years ago and are victims themselves. Newsweek 2016 Apr 12 (Story) (Cached)

Iceland is considering a move to remove the power to create money from commercial banks and turn it over to the exclusive prerogative of the government. That would change nothing except which group of criminals will plunder the people: bankers or politicians. Daily Bell 2016 Apr 11 (Story) (Cached)

US: Goldman Sachs has agreed to pay $5.06 billion to settle claims that it used fraudulent practices to mislead mortgage-bond investors between 2007 and 2009. The Department of Justice has the option to prosecute the executives and managers who committed this crime, but it is unlikely to happen. Reuters 2016 Apr 11 (Story) (Cached)

 

The CIA has provided funding to a beauty-products company called Skincential Sciences because it has a technology that painlessly collects human DNA. The CIA is interested in collecting biomarkers on as many citizens as possible. CBS News 2016 Apr 11 (Story) (Cached)

Douglas County, Colorado: ‘They are a corrupt bunch of thieves,’ says a Republican delegate who was illegally removed from the voting list because he voted for Trump. Intellihub 2016 Apr 10 (Story)

If you don’t rent to criminals, you are a racist. That’s the meaning of a new policy issued by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development that forbids landlords to reject potential renters based on the fact that they have a criminal conviction. The government says that would be discrimination on the basis of race or national origin. Boston Globe 2016 Apr 10 (Story) (Cached)

US: UnitedHealth Group, the nation’s largest health insurer, lost hundreds of millions of dollars under Obamacare (the so-called ‘Affordable Care Act’) and is withdrawing from the program starting with Georgia and Arkansas. It is likely that other major insurers such as Aetna and Anthem will follow suit. [Eventually, all the losses will be paid by taxes and inflation.] Fiscal Times 2016 Apr 10 (Story) (Cached)

The Truth About Cancer – A Global Quest, is being broadcast LIVE every day this week through Thursday, April 21 ending at 9 PM, Eastern US time. A different episode each day. Even if you have seen this documentary, it is worth watching again, especially if you can do so with someone who needs information on cancer. It literally could save a life.

This is the most comprehensive documentary ever produced on this topic. One of the 9 episodes will be broadcast continuously for 24 hours. After the 9th episode, the series will end.

Each program stands alone, so you don’t have to see the first ones to benefit from the information in those that follow. There is no charge for this series.

Wells Fargo has admitted to “deceiving” the US government into insuring thousands of risky mortgages. It settled the matter for $1.2 billion, which is the highest-ever fine relating to the housing bubble. The government continues to protect the executives and managers who committed the fraud. They received their bonuses and never have been prosecuted. ZeroHedge 2016 Apr 9 (Story) (Cached)

Recently, a settlement of $20 billion was approved to close the BP Oil case in which the Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010. However, US taxpayers will foot most of the bill. BP Oil will be able to deduct $15.3 billion of that from its taxes. Only $5.5 billion is non-deductible. RT posted 2016 Apr 9 (Story)

Germany: The government says it brought in more than a million migrants for cheap labor. In truth, however, most of them became welfare recipients. Collectivist governments see migrants as a voting block that will support the expansion of government in return for welfare. In Sweden, 58% of welfare payments already go to immigrants.

 WHY I AM RUNNING FOR CONGRESS
from Patrea Patrick

ANALYSIS

News and commentaries that reveal historical facts and trends that place current events into perspective and make it possible to anticipate future events.

 

Costco is having difficulty keeping up with the growing demand for organic food. To solve this problem, the company plans to help farmers buy land and equipment to grow more organic produce. Costco is working closely with a poultry plant in Alabama that raised the 83-million rotisserie chickens it sold last year and it recently bought cattle to be raised on organic fields in Nebraska.

‘Social Autopsy’ is a company that is building a database of ‘negative’ online comments with the goal of identifying those who use harsh words to criticize others in social media. The idea sounds like it has merit in terms of casting public scorn on Internet bullies, but the predictable result will be different. This project will be easily dominated by corporations and government agencies who can afford to hire 24-7 trolls to castigate anyone they hold in disfavor. This already is a reality on Wikipedia where anyone who criticizes the Establishment line is categorized as a conspiracy theorist and a fruitcake. InfoWars 2016 Apr 13 (Story) (Cached)

In this analysis, Max Blumenthal explains that, as the Boycott, Divestiture and Sanctions movement is gaining support for Palestinians against Israeli occupation of Gaza, the Israeli lobby is launching a global agenda to outlaw BDS. The plan is to promote legislation to punish businesses that decline to do business with Israel or divest from their Israeli holdings. The lobby also is advocating an expanded definition of anti-Semitism to include opposition to the government of Israel or the political agenda of Zionism. The Real News 2016 Apr 12 (Story)

Chicago lost more millionaires in 2015 than any other US city. The exodus is motivated by racial turmoil and crime. About 2% of the city’s ultra-wealthy left the city. Paris, Rome, and Athens also lost large numbers of wealthy taxpayers. Chicago Crusader 2016 Apr 11 (Story) (Cached)

Obama is poised to give the UN another slice of US sovereignty and prosperity through a treaty covering the world’s oceans. In the name of environmentalism, it will stop research and development in large areas of the sea. A provision called ‘technology sharing’ will prohibit countries from exclusively benefitting from their own efforts and investments. All advancements must be globally shared. High production nations will be required to share profits with lower producers. That will kill incentives to explore and develop, creating yet another obstacle for production and innovation. Collectivism is strangling the world. Constitution 2016 Apr 9 (Story) (Cached)

Little Johnny is always being teased by the other neighborhood boys for being stupid. Their favorite joke is to offer Johnny his choice between a nickel and a dime — Johnny always takes the nickel.

One day, after Johnny takes the nickel, a neighbor takes him aside and says, “Johnny, those boys are making fun of you. Don’t you know that a dime is worth more than a nickel, even though the nickel’s bigger?”

Johnny grins and says, “Well, if I took the dime, they’d stop doing it, and so far I’ve made $20!”

GREATEST INSURANCE FRAUD IN HISTORY?
2016 April 14 from Patrea Patrick
Hello Ed. Thank you for writing such a great foreword to my book, Titanic; A Perfect Crime. The anniversary of Titanic’s demise is upon us. As I was reflecting on the grim fate of those who went down in the bitter-cold ocean that night, I recalled this cartoon commentary on our present time.

IF TITANIC HAD SUNK IN 2016


Titanic is full of intrigue. When she sank, sending 1,500 people to their watery graves, it was called an accident and an act of God. But, as you know, it was no accident. It was an act of Man – one man in particular, JP Morgan. It was the greatest insurance fraud in history.

I am delighted by the brisk sales of the book on the Reality Zone site. Thanks for giving it visibility.

PUT ME IN CHARGE
posted 2016 April 2
This was in the Waco Tribune Herald, Waco, TX

Put me in charge of food stamps. No cash for Ding Dongs or Ho Ho’s, just money for 50-pound bags of rice and beans, blocks of cheese, and all the powdered milk you can haul away. If you want steak and frozen pizza, then get a job.

Put me in charge of Medicaid. Then, we’ll test recipients for drugs, alcohol, and nicotine. If you want to use drugs, alcohol, or smoke, then get a job.

Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in a military barracks? You will maintain our property in a clean and good state of repair. Your “home” will be subject to inspections anytime, and possessions will be inventoried. If you want a plasma TV or Xbox 360, then get a job and your own place.

In addition, you will either present a check stub from a job each week or you will report to a “government” job. It may be cleaning the roadways of trash, painting and repairing public housing, whatever we find for you. We will sell your 22-inch rims and low profile tires and your blasting stereo and speakers and put that money toward the “common good.”

Before you write that I’ve violated someone’s rights, realize that all of the above is voluntary. If you want our money, accept our rules.Before you say that this would be “demeaning” and ruin their “self-esteem,” consider that it wasn’t that long ago that taking someone else’s money for doing absolutely nothing was demeaning and lowered self-esteem.

If we are expected to pay for other people’s mistakes, we should at least attempt to make them learn from their bad choices. The current system rewards them for continuing to make bad choices.

While you are on Gov’t subsistence, you no longer can VOTE! Yes, that is correct. For you to vote would be a conflict of interest. You will voluntarily remove yourself from voting while you are receiving a Gov’t welfare check. If you want to vote, then get a job.

Return to news Quotes archive

Sorry. I couldn’t help it.

Many years ago, I made a resolution to stop poking fun at global-warming believers with news stories about unusual cold weather, snow storms, and blizzards.

Although global-warming myth-makers never tire of reporting every unusual hot spell as though it were proof of their claims, I knew it was dishonest to imply that short-term events mean anything except that they are short-term events. Yes, of course, there will be unusual hot spells, even in periods of planetary cooling. I resented the fact that the media was playing mind games with the public, and I resolved that, if we are to take the high ground, we must not stoop to that tactic. Since then, we have never reported on unusual cold spells in such a way as to imply they disproved the theory of global warming. Only reliable records of long-term trends can do that – and those we do report.

As you can see from the photo at the top of this week’s edition, I broke my promise. Sorry, but I just couldn’t help it. I take comfort in the thought that no jury of my peers would ever convict me.

Here are two news stories from this week that are back on track of just reporting the facts.

A team of scientists at Stockholm University performed a study of climate and geology and compiled twelve centuries of ‘water history’ for Europe, North Asia, and North America. They concluded that current climate models and rainfall predictions are wrong. They found that there were more dramatic wet-dry weather extremes (climate change) in earlier centuries long before the industrial revolution that now is blamed for climate change and global warming. AFP 2016 Apr 6 (Story) (Cached)

To keep the myth of global warming alive in the minds of Americans, the White House issued a warning on April 4th that ‘extreme heat is expected to cause an increase in the number of premature deaths’. On that same day, the National Weather Service issued advisories for April snowstorms. A bitter-cold Arctic front descended on New England, the Upper Midwest, and Great-Lakes areas bringing heavy snowfall expected to last through next week. CNS News 2016 Apr 4 (Story) (Cached)

Another high-level whistleblower has come forward to condemn the MMR vaccine (Mumps, Measles and Rubella). Dr. Peter Fletcher, who served in the 70s as the Chief Scientific Officer at the UK Department of Health, says that, if governments continue to ignore the risks of the MMR vaccine, it will become one of the greatest scandals in medical history. He says there are people in very powerful positions who deny the link to autism because they have staked their reputations on the safety of MMR and are willing to do anything to protect their careers.

Wikileaks says that the Panama Papers document dump was ‘produced’ by the US Agency for International Development and George Soros. The goal was to weaken public support for Russia and Putin. It is well known that USAID and Soros worked together behind the scenes to overthrow Serbian leader Milosevic in 2000, to organize the Rose Revolution in Georgia in 2003, the Orange Revolution in Ukraine in 2004, and the Tulip Revolution in Kyrgyzstan in 2005.

Brussels and Dutch political leadership decided, without consulting their constituents, that Ukraine should be admitted to the European Union. However, when a referendum was held in Holland, 61% voted against Ukraine entry into the EU. Dutch voters’ dissatisfaction with the EU system indicated that they may follow the UK in their June attempt to exit from the EU. TruNews 2016 Apr 7 (Story) (Cached)

The Department of Justice says it has the names of 200 Americans whose offshore investments were revealed in the Panama Papers. It is significant that no high ranking political figures are among them, suggesting that the list was scrubbed before being released. Attorney Mike Papantonio says that the DOJ likely will only go after ‘low hanging fruit’ tax dodgers. RT 2016 Apr 7 (Story)

Drug companies have increased prices of many drugs sold in the US by 50% over the last five years. Prices of four of the ten top-selling drugs for high cholesterol and arthritis rose by more than 100% since 2011. The companies claim they need to recoup costs for research and failed drugs. [We think they raise prices because they have a monopoly in the market, and buyers have no choice – and it’s paid by insurance anyway.] Care2 2016 Apr 6 (Story) (Cached)

President Obama is putting $589 million into development of a Zika-virus vaccine and into research on how it is spread by mosquitoes. He is calling on Congress to provide a total of $1.9 billion for this purpose. The mainstream media is continuing to make the false claim that the Zika virus is linked to the birth defect microcephaly in children. There is no evidence to support that claim and much that disproves it. CBS News 2016 Apr 6 (Story)

We reported months ago that there were many reasons to reject the claim that the Zika virus was linked to microcephaly. Now, investigative reporter Jon Rappoport presents additional facts from Brazil to strengthen that skepticism. There are many other potential causes that range from malnutrition and poor sanitation to mosquito pesticide that was added to drinking water. All of these are more likely than the Zika-virus theory, but they don’t justify putting $2-billion of taxes into the political cookie jar. Jon Rappoport Blog posted 2016 Apr 6 (Story) (Cached)

A US federal judge granted approval Monday to an estimated $20.8 billion final settlement in the 2010 BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Most of the money will go to federal, state, and local governments. We don’t expect to see much of it trickle down to the people whose livelihoods and health were ruined. CBS News 2016 Apr 5 (Story)

The US Department of Justice (DOJ) set up a fake school called the University of Northern New Jersey to entrap students and enrollment brokers who were seeking, not an education, but a way to obtain visas. Twenty one brokers were arrested, and 1,076 foreign ‘students’, mostly from China and India, were enrolled in non-existent classes. CBS News 2016 Apr 5 (Story)

Iceland’s Prime Minister, Gunnlaugsson, under massive public pressure, resigned over the Panama Papers. He moved millions of dollars in personal holdings from his country’s failing banks to offshore banks. Then, one day before a law was enacted requiring government officers to disclose such holdings, he sold his shares to his wife for $1. CBS News 2016 Apr 5 (Story)

In the past three months, the Veterans Affairs Department has taken away the Constitutional right-to-bear arms from over 250,000 veterans. The VA created a program supposedly to help veterans manage their finances. That’s the bait. If veterans accept the assistance, the VA reports them to the FBI as unqualified to own a firearm. Without psychological evaluation, it is assumed that anyone who can’t manage money cannot be trusted with a gun. [Politicians are the world’s worst managers of money, but don’t expect this rule to apply to them.] RT 2016 Apr 5 (Story)

Michigan: Khalil Abu-Rayyan says that he pretended to make plans for a mass shooting in order to impress a woman he wanted to marry. Unknown to him, the woman was an FBI informant who was encouraging him to undertake violent acts. This is merely the latest in a long history of the FBI encouraging violence so it can intervene at the last minute and claim that it ‘prevented’ terrorism. RT 2016 Apr 4 (Story)

To keep the myth of global warming alive in the minds of Americans, the White House issued a warning on April 4th that ‘extreme heat can be expected to cause an increase in the number of premature deaths’. However, on that same day, the National Weather Service issued weather advisories for April snowstorms. A bitter-cold Arctic front descended on New England, the Upper Midwest, and Great-Lakes areas bringing heavy snowfall expected to last through next week. CNS News 2016 Apr 4 (Story) (Cached)

The ‘Panama Papers’ is the name given to an enormous collection of documents leaked from a financial firm in Panama relating to about 300,000 off-shore holding companies created to protect the assets of politicians, royalty, and celebrities from 40 countries. [The fact that the 11.5 million documents contain no names from the US and no names of people in other countries who are supporters of the US suggests that the list was scrubbed for political purposes. Who would do such a thing? See James Corbett’s report, below, for the answer.] RT 2016 Apr 4 (Story)

James Corbett explains that the Panama Papers were released by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, which is funded by George Soros’ Open Society Foundation, the Ford Foundation, and other major components of the Western globalist community. It is not surprising, therefore, that the parties who are singled out for exposure all are in disfavor of the US State Department. Corbett Report 2016 Apr 4 (Story)

Maryland: Former Judge Robert Nalley was sentenced to participate in an anger-management program and fined $5,000 for ordering a police officer to administer a 50,000-volt shock to defendant Delvon King. During court proceedings, the judge was angered when King defied his order to stop talking. India posted 2016 Apr 2 (Story) (Cached)

The US Food and Drug Administration is being sued by a coalition of environmental, fishing and consumer groups for approving genetically engineered salmon. There is danger that the ‘Frankenfish’ may breed with natural salmon and cause their extinction. RT posted 2016 Apr 2 (Story)

A new study shows that 67% of canned foods tested contained Bisphenol-A, a chemical that is linked to cancer, infertility, diabetes, obesity, asthma and behavioral changes. Campbell’s Soup and Del Monte both tested high for BPA. RT posted 2016 Apr 2 (Story)

US: Last December, the Department of Justice suspended its ‘equitable-sharing’ program that allows local police to keep 80% of any assets they seize on mere ‘suspicion of wrongdoing’. This week, that asset-forfeiture program was reinstated. [Expect policing-for-profit to return to America with a vengeance.] RT 2016 Mar 31 (Story)
