i began this blogspot to save sending emails to all i suspected might need or want to review: avoid being a spammer. so consider these things i thought you might find interest in. if you like what you see, pass it on.
If the power elites didn’t need the consent of the public to rule, they wouldn’t have to lie constantly about their reasons for their wars on everyone.

one small successful step in opposing the thin blue line;
Billings, MT — As TFTP has consistently reported over the years,
knowing your rights and filming police interactions is the best defense
against police officers who are willing to trample your rights. We’ve
reported on multiple videos in which people shut down cops who try to
violate their rights. However, the video below depicts one of the most
fiery rights flexers we’ve ever featured on this site.
Angela Whitehead is one strong woman who knows her rights and is not
afraid of letting police—who try to violate those rights—know that will
be challenged.
Whitehead proved this point over the weekend after two Billings
police officers entered her home without a warrant on the basis that
they heard an argument inside.
Hearing an argument is not reasonable suspicion to warrantlessly
enter someone’s private property and Whitehead knew this. What’s more,
Whitehead says there was no argument anyway and that she just talks loud
— as you will see below.
“He can’t!” Whitehead says as the cops hold open her door, trying to look around her home with no warrant.
When Whitehead turns around and sees that she is being filmed, she is reassured and proceeds to let the cops have it.........https://thefreethoughtproject.com/watch-rights-flexing-mom-sends-cops-packing-after-they-try-to-enter-her-home-with-no-warrant/
more evidence in the postulate that you aren't allowed to criticize your owners;
JERUSALEM (Reuters) – The United States may review its ties with
countries it deems as being anti-Israel after what a U.S. envoy said on
Sunday was a shift in policy toward equating anti-Zionism with
anti-Semitism.
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a March speech that
anti-Zionism – opposition to Israel’s existence as a homeland for the
Jewish people – was a form of anti-Semitism, or hostility toward Jews,
that was on the rise worldwide and that Washington would “fight it
relentlessly”.
The State Department’s special envoy for monitoring and combating
anti-Semitism, Elan Carr, said this U.S. position could spell reviews of
ties with foreign governments or leaders.
“The United States is willing to review its relationship with any
country, and certainly anti-Semitism on the part of a country with whom
we have relations is a deep concern,” he told Reuters during a visit to
Israel.
“I will be raising that issue in bilateral meetings that I am
undertaking all over the world,” he said. “That is something we are
going to have frank and candid conversations about – behind closed
doors.”
Carr declined to cite specific countries or leaders, or to elaborate on what actions the Trump administration might take.
“I obviously can’t comment on diplomatic tools that we might bring to
bear,” he said. “Each country is a different diplomatic challenge, a
different situation, number one. And number two, if I started disclosing
what we might do it would be less effective.”
Some U.S. political analysts say that President Donald Trump and
other Republicans hope support for Israel will attract Jewish voters,
including those disaffected by pro-Palestinian voices within progressive
Democratic Party circles..........https://fromthetrenchesworldreport.com/u-s-may-review-ties-with-countries-deemed-anti-israel-envoy/246224
which of us can be really sure what's true in the inner workings of the empire but this article asks some good questions and posits some interesting suggestions;
The discussions between Putin and Trump,
sometime in early May 2019, have revealed frightening truths about US
policy in Venezuela and elsewhere.
If reports are to be believed, there was
wide agreement between Putin and Trump on Venezuela and much of what
had been said by the US policies “mouth pieces,” John Bolton and Mike
Pompeo, had never been approved by President Trump.
Moreover, discussions, we are told, also
covered wide areas of nuclear disarmament that would involve not just
the US and Russia but China as well, and broader cooperation and
economic ties between Russia and the US.
Let’s remember, it was Donald Trump that
ordered two missile attacks on Syria for use of chemical weapons.
Perhaps the single greatest divergence from sanity by the corporate
media has involved these attacks, long proven fake, and the organization
known as the White Helmets, defended by the corporate media as heroes
but clearly terrorists.
Thus, we enter a “free fall zone” of one
initiative being reported that, when examined alongside the popular
narrative and statements made from policymakers, all we get are
contradictions, insane contradictions.
Let’s take a second to examine how
confusing things really are. Trump has only recently vetoed, an act
upheld by a razor thin minority (an oddity of US procedure), attempts to
end US bombing of Yemen. We may claim Saudi Arabia and Israel are doing
it, and for those who don’t know, not only is Israel bombing Yemen,
they have lost planes, 2 IAF F16s with pilots, over Yemen back in 2016.
This is really an American war, American
planes, American bombs, American fuel, American mission planning,
American ships servicing the blockades and America’s supposed policy,
driven by broad corruption within the American administration through
“lobbying efforts” on behalf of a partnership between select “Israeli
interests,” big oil, arms dealers and their organized crime financiers.
Any statement about American policy that
fails to make these truths clear will appear to be either insane or
fake based on the divergence between corporate media narrative supported
by what we choose to call “Deep State operatives,” such as Lindsey
Graham, John Bolton, Robert Barr or Mike Pompeo, and real facts.
What we are saying is this. Analysis is
impossible as long as outlandish versions of events are continually fed
into the “popular narrative” and then rubber stamped by not just the
media but clearly psychopathic public officials as well.
Donald Trump called these individuals
“the swamp.” Where we are going today may well be the first instance
where “swamp draining” might be considered possible.
most of those who i speak with have no trust in 'our' government and this article shows some of why that is the case speaking about vaccines, and how they get to be required including what happens after they are injected;
The studies the FDA relied upon for its measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine approval was finally revealed two weeks ago. This after FOIA requests forced the FDA’s hand. The fact that this sunlight was delayed so long in itself points to massive corruption and unethical behavior. These studies should have been open sourced years ago and available to anybody.
But we also learned that the FDA approval was only based on small, short-duration studies on 834 children — this for a vaccine that would be administered to hundreds of millions of children around the world. It compared contraindications for MMR compared with rubella only or with other lots of MMR. Not only were the study sizes criminally negligent, but they were never tested against a salient non-vaxxed control group. The study duration was a mere 42 days.
bolton and pompeo are insane warmongers and here mr. cole speaks about bolton and his history;
Ann Arbor (Informed Comment) – Uber warmongerers John Bolton and Mike Pompeo, somehow the National Security Adviser and Secretary of State of the United States, respectively, have sent an aircraft carrier battle group toward the Gulf in the vicinity of Iran, in hopes of provoking a military confrontation with that country.
Iran does not have so much as a battleship and has no air force to speak of, and so you do not actually need an aircraft carrier to deal with it. Back when Dick Cheney was trying to provoke Iran, late in the Bush administration, he also sent an aircraft carrier to the Gulf, and the snowflake conservatives were crying that Iranian skiffs had menaced it. Skiffs.
Fareed Zakaria did a piece on Bolton on Sunday in which he depicted him as just a very conservative man who sees the world as full of menacing enemies.
This picture of Bolton is a complete misreading. Bolton is a sadistic bully who wants to dominate people. He never got to be more than temporary UN ambassador under George W. Bush because he had mercilessly tortured his office staff. Bolton likes to hurt people who are weaker than he. He is not after Iran because he is afraid of it. He is after it because it is one of the last countries in the world still bucking the US power architecture and which is too weak to resist an all-out assault. He wants to see flies walking on the Iranians’ eyeballs and wants even their dogs to be f–ked..........https://www.juancole.com/2019/05/warmongers-aircraft-confrontation.html
pcr says it well here describing pompeo as the aggressive idiot he is;
The US Desperately Needs a New Secretary of State
Paul Craig Roberts
The ignorant warmonger masquerading as an American Secretary of State should be arrested for his impersonation of an American government official.Mike Pompeo cannot possibly be the US Secretary of State, because not even Donald Trump would appoint an idiot to this high position who thinks that Article 2 of the Constitution gives the president the authority to declare war and invade other countries.
Here is what the moronic imposter Pompeo said: “The president has his full range of Article 2 authorities and I’m very confident that any action we took in Venezuela would be lawful.” This was Pompeo’s answer when asked if President Trump could intervene in the country’s power struggle without congressional approval. https://www.rt.com/usa/458433-venezuela-military-invasion-lawful-pompeo/Of course, it is not “the country’s power struggle.” It is Washington’s effort to overthrow the Bolivarian Revolution and regain control over Venezuela’s resources.
Pompeo is twice idiot.The US Constitution gives the power to declare war only to Congress. Moreover, under the Nuremburg laws laid down by the US government after World War 2, it is a war crime to commit aggression, which is what US military intervention in Venezuela would be.
I should have said that Pompeo is three times idiot, because he asserts that countries that are diplomatically defending the democratically elected government of Venezuela are “interfering with the Venezuelan people’s right to restore their own democracy.”Someone should tell the idiot Pompeo that it is the Venezuelan people and the Venezuelan military that have refused Washington’s financial bribes and threats who are supporting Venezuelan democracy, not Washington whose failed coup might be followed up with another Washington war crime invasion.
Lavrov and Putin have found it difficult in the past to put down a hard foot in order to deter more illegal war crime aggression from Washington.Lavrov is too civilized of a person to have to confront a neo-nazi like Pompeo.
Putin should send Shoigu to deal with Pompeo. The time for polite, accommodating talk is long past.A country and its people are at stake.
Let’s hope Russia and China do not permit another Libya.
