Is Mayor diBlasio

Friday, June 8, 2018

“Though New York City has one of the most segregated schools systems in the country,” writes Elizabeth Harris of The New York Times, until now, Mayor Bill de Blasio “was all but silent on the issue.” He was “reluctant even to use the word ‘segregation.’” Now the notion that the liberal mayor belongs in the same basket as Southern governors in the ’50s and ’60s like Orval Faubus of Arkansas and Ross Barnett of Mississippi seems a bit of a stretch.

While I don’t think “leaking” is the honorable thing to do, that being said reporters and their materials are essential to free press.

Owner of the Lolita Express and Orgy Island

Thursday, June 7, 2018

Have you noticed, fellow truth-seekers, how the information we are pursuing seems to be coming at us in fits and starts these days? How some investigations begin, are stalled, and others long forgotten return to the public eye? As we attempt to decipher and interpret revelations about behind-the-scenes sexual abuse and pedophelia among the powerful elite in our society, we might do well to imagine a larger, more coherent process taking place that adheres to the well-worn phrase: timing is everything.

No doubt, Jeffrey Epstein has dirt on many friends in high places, like the aforementioned Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, and even Donald Trump, who is known to have visited Epstein’s island. Perhaps this is where FBI interests lie, or perhaps it is in gathering information about people who are not in the public eye. Is it possible that the FBI is leveraging Epstein to continue to get enough information to eventually prosecute people who are higher up the totem pole? One would hope so, although there are certainly less promising conclusions one could draw on the strength of this piece of information alone.

Why aren’t the patrons of the Lolita Express and Orgy Island listed on the front page of every paper and news website?

One set of rules for everyone?  Don’t make me laugh!

Texas Bullion Depository Open for Business

Thursday, June 7, 2018

The Texas Bullion Depository officially opened for business this week. The creation of the facility represents a power-shift away from the federal government, and sets the foundation to undermine the Federal Reserve’s monopoly on money.

The Texas Bullion Depository will create a mechanism to challenge the federal government’s monopoly on money and provides a blueprint for other states to follow. If the majority of states controlled their own supply of gold, and people began using precious metals in daily transactions, it could conceivably make the Federal Reserve completely irrelevant.

That’s going to take some time, but it becomes an interesting way create a “store of value”.

Reason #6831 Why Gun Registration Is Evil – Bearing Arms

Wednesday, June 6, 2018

There’s a saying that ignorance of the law is no defense, which I get. I really do.Yet at some point, there has to be a line. If men and women can be arrested when they’re clearly trying to not break the law, then what hope does any law-abiding citizen have? There’s a theory that the average person goes through life committing something like three felonies per day. I don’t know how accurate that is, but I have little difficulty believing that we break laws all the time without realizing it.

“If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him.” —Cardinal Richelieu

Same thing with all the gun laws.  The Constitution (of no account) is specifically clear.  The right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

How is this not “infringement”?

“Not Spots”!

Unfortunately, everything comes at a cost.

As far as I’ve seen, all the public libraries have free internet.

How elite military and scientific teams bring home fallen U.S. soldiers | Popular Science

Tuesday, June 5, 2018

All of Oxford’s siblings, friends, and his ­fiancée were dead by the time his family held a service for him in a high school auditorium near Concord. Nonetheless, hundreds of people turned out—dozens of relatives, as well as scores of neighbors, veterans, local politicians, and other well-wishers. At a cere­mony before the burial, a framed photo of the airman stood next to his casket. Beside it, his family placed pictures of the other seven Hot as Hell crewmembers.

Veterans’ Group Says ‘No’ to Emmy for PBS Vietnam War Series – Antiwar.com Original

Saturday, June 2, 2018

VFP concludes its ad, just above an iconic photograph of protesting G.I.s holding a banner emblazoned with, “We won’t fight another rich man’s war,” by saying that if the Burns/Novick series is “crowned with an Emmy, this defective history of the Vietnam era will become required viewing for generations of young Americans – a seductive, but false, interpretation of events.”

Seems like a valid criticism of the politicians that got us into the mess and the terrible toll in human lives it took and is taking.  Unfortunately, most get their news and history from the media so it’s got to be brutally correct.
