This article was originally published by offGuardian. *** In the hysterical wake of the Trump-Putin Summit in Helsinki, President Donald Trump was roundly criticised in the media for taking the side of a “hostile state” over his own intelligence agencies. The Guardian referred to Mueller as a “heroic marine” who Trump disbelieved in favour of a “Russian dictator”. In the past, when Trump has criticised the FBI, CIA or NSA he has been accused of “undermining faith in our institutions”. He’s been blamed for a collapse of trust in the government. But was this trust ever earned? At every corner, we are urged to simply believe ...

Sacha Baron Cohen's "Who is America?" returned Sunday for its second episode, featuring a sketch with Jason Spencer, a Republican state lawmaker from Georgia, that rivals the debut episode's guns-for-toddlers segment in shock value. The new episode of Cohen's Showtime series, which also features the comedian duping Dick Cheney and Corinne Olympios from "The Bachelor," revives his Israeli anti-terrorism expert character Col. Erran Morad. As Morad, Cohen convinces Spencer that he's acting in a training video, similar to how he persuaded former and current congressmen to record public-service announcements for the fake "Kinderguardians" program ...

Bombshell: Evidence That Ann Dunham Is Not Obama’s Real Mother At this point, we have no way of knowing who Barack Obama really is. Everything surrounding his birth is highly suspicious. He has never produced a live birth certificate, after all these years and all the doubts raised about whether or not he was a natural US citizen. Barack Obama Sr., a Kenyan Muslim who was known for being a con artist, is obviously his officially recognized father, which is suspicious enough already. But on top of the doubts of his birthplace, theories have arisen as to whether or not Obama is even his real father. Frank Davis and Malcom X are among those speculated to be Obama Jr’s real dad, ...

New Jersey — Just when we start to garner a little hope for humanity, almost like clockwork some insane politician comes out and tries to ruin it. For those who thought reefer madness was a thing of the past, a lawmaker in New Jersey will quickly reverse that thought. State Sen. Ronald Rice (D) —a lawmaker who calls himself a “progressive” — recently told reporters that he believes marijuana is a gateway drug that if legalized will lead to the selling of “sex toys and oils” all over the state. Rice, completely contradicting the massive evidence to the contrary, claims that if New Jersey legalized cannabis, “the number of people who’ve ...

It is no accident that police have become more brutal – in appearance as well as action – since they became law enforcement.The term itself is a brutal syllogism. The law exists and must be enforced because it is the law. I am just doing my job, only following (lawful) orders. People were hanged for using such reasoning to justify the enforcement of vicious, evil laws and went to the gallows baffled as to why.Victor’s justice, they called it. And perhaps they were right, if a bit prematurely.Today’s defendants – well, one hopes that they will be that, one day – are just as guilty in kind if not degree.They enforce the laws. All of them. They do not question ...

A black owner of a gourmet lemonade stand in San Francisco claims he was approached by police officers on Thursday after someone in the neighborhood thought he was breaking into his own business. Viktor Stevenson, the owner of Gourmonade, said four San Francisco Police Department officers approached him last week when he was checking the security system of his lemonade kiosk. One officer, according to him, had a hand on his gun, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. “Four cops just hopped out on me guns almost drawn took my ID at my own store. This racist thing is out of control but it won't stop me! Living my dreams like they are golden because they are,” Stevenson wrote on ...

A dozen migrants in the city of Antwerp pelted a handicapped elderly lady with large stones while calling her a “dirty, smelly Belgian” during an alarming attack. The woman was visiting her old neighbors on Thursday afternoon on her mobility scooter. She met an old acquaintance and stopped to chat before being approached by a gang of migrant youths who immediately began throwing stones at her. “They flew near my head and my scooter was hit. They weren’t small stones, they were paving stones of around 15 centimeters across,” the woman said. When the woman asked why she was being attacked, her assailants responded by hurling racist slurs. “I asked them what ...

President Trump late Sunday tweeted out to Iranian President Rouhani to never threaten the U.S. again or face historic consequences. The tweet came on the heels of Rouhani’s warning to Trump that hostile policies could lead to the “mother of all wars" with Iran. Trump called for Rouhani to stop the rhetoric or--in caps lock-- “suffer the consequences the like of which few throughout history have ever suffered before. We are no longer a country that will stand for your demented words of violence and death. Be cautious!” Donald J.

(Big League Politics) – Former President Barack H. Obama had a slip of the tongue during a speech in Kogelo, Kenya today. “Now, three years ago, I visited Kenya as the first sitting American President to come from Kenya,” he said.

Libertarianism's terrible, horrible, no good, very bad idea

Ideas have consequences — and bad ideas have bad consequences. Just how bad the consequences turn out to be depends to a large extent on the precise character of the bad idea. A bad idea that influences no one isn't really that bad. It's just stupid, and instantly forgettable. But a bad idea that lodges in people's minds, fires their imaginations, inspires them to persuade others of its wisdom, and motivates them to make bad decisions in the world — that idea is truly bad. Some bad ideas inspire world-historical acts of evil. "The Jews are subhuman parasites that deserve to be exterminated" may be the worst idea ever conceived. Compared with such a ...

July 10 (Reuters) - A federal U.S. judge on Tuesday allowed hundreds of lawsuits alleging that Monsanto Co's glyphosate-containing weed-killer Roundup causes cancer to proceed to trial, finding that there was sufficient evidence for a jury to hear the cases. The decision by U.S. District Judge Vince Chhabria in San Francisco, California, followed years of litigation and weeks of hearings about the controversial science surrounding the safety of the chemical glyphosate, the key ingredient in Monsanto's top-selling weed-killer. Monsanto is a unit of Bayer AG, following the $62.5 billion takeover of the U.S. seed major which wrapped up in June. Chhabria in his 68-page opinion called ...

DETROIT — For Rachel Conner, the 2018 election season has been a moment of revelation. A 27-year-old social worker, Ms. Conner voted for Hillary Clinton in the 2016 primaries, spurning the more liberal Bernie Sanders, whom many of her peers backed. But Ms. Conner changed course in this year’s campaign for governor, after concluding that Democrats could only win with more daring messages on issues like public health and immigration.

With this article I hope to help keep the demand low, or at least to explain to libertarian correspondents why they don't impress me with comments like "You sure love letting people steal your money!" Good libertarians and the other kind This article has been rewritten, for two reasons. First, the original article had sidebars to address common objections. From several people's reactions, it seems that they never read these. They're now incorporated into the text. Second, and more importantly, many people who call ...

Key Concepts of Libertarianism

The key concepts of libertarianism have developed over many centuries. The first inklings of them can be found in ancient China, Greece, and Israel; they began to be developed into something resembling modern libertarian philosophy in the work of such seventeenth- and eighteenth-century thinkers as John Locke, David Hume, Adam Smith, Thomas Jefferson, and Thomas Paine. Individualism. Libertarians see the individual as the basic unit of social analysis. Only individuals make choices and are responsible for their actions. Libertarian thought emphasizes the dignity of each individual, which entails both rights and responsibility. The progressive extension of dignity to more people — to ...

President's Trump successful summit with President Putin was used by the "resistance" and the deep state to launch a coup-attempt against Trump. Their minimum aim is to put Trump into a (virtual) political cage where he can no longer pursue his foreign policy agenda.One does not have to be a fan of Trump's policies and still see the potential danger. A situation where he can no longer act freely will likely be worse. What Trump has done so far still does not add up to the disastrous policies and crimes his predecessor committed.The borg, financed and sworn to the agenda of globalists and the military-industrial-media complex, has its orders and is acting on them.

Joseph Crowley (D-NY) last month, and since then she's been all over the mainstream media channels. Some political pundits have even begun to say that she's is the new face of the Democratic Party.
