With Glenn Beck leading the charge, mainstream media swarms on TX Gov. candidate Medina for not disavowing 9/11 Truthers

(America20xy) – Today, in a move that illustrates exactly why Glenn Beck has painstakingly tried to portray himself over the past year as some kind of man of the people while hosting a show on the infamous Fox News Channel that cheered the War in Iraq, he turned an interview with Debra Medina, a candidate for the TX Governer seat, into a PR ambush on her and the 9/11 Truth movement.

Video: Obama Declares He Will Rule by Authoritarian Decree

(KurtNimmo) – The Obama administration has announced it will now rule by fascist decree and ignore Congress and the American people.
“With much of his legislative agenda stalled in Congress, President Obama and his team are preparing an array of actions using his executive power to advance energy, environmental, fiscal and other domestic policy priorities,” reports The New York Times. “We are reviewing a list of presidential executive orders and directives to get the job done across a front of issues,” said Rahm Emanuel, the White House chief of staff who is fond of cracking his knuckles in Obama’s face.

Video: Gerald Celente on ‘Grim’ Economic Report

“This is the beginning of a financial war” – Celente
(RussiaToday) – The annual Economic Report of the President was released yesterday and it’s pretty gloomy – predicting slow employment growth this year and next. It basically says that the US economy will add an average of 95,000 jobs a month this year, but that’s not enough to make much of a dent in unemployment. The unemployment rate is projected to come down quite slowly after that, averaging 8.2 percent in 2012, when Obama will be up for reelection. Continue reading

Video: Debra Medina – Another Vicitim of Glenn McCarthyist Beck – Brian Romanoff

(NorCalTruth) – Debra Medina, a candidate for Governor of Texas, is about to be slammed by all corporate, and many “independent” news organizations.
She recently went on air to be interviewed by entertainer and saboteur Glenn Beck. The topic of 9/11 came up as Glenn is the new McCarthy of 9/11 truthers. Without taking  a position on Glenn Beck’s question she said, “there are some very good questions that have been raised.” Continue reading

Video: International Bankers Finance Both Sides in War

“They were terribly cynical people who felt that the war would end as all wars do and they would go back to business as usual.”
It is ironic that the video below – “Banking with Hitler” – begins with a mechanism for the payment of reparations by Germany to the victors of the “War To End All Wars” – the Bank for International Settlements (BIS). Somehow this international banking mechanism became the enabler for the next worldwide bloodbath – World War 2. I suspect the same is occuring today. Read More Here

Obama’s Murder Inc.

“There are no warrants or indictments or grand juries impaneled in order for Barack Obama to decide to kill any individual he chooses.”
No one has the right to kill, or so we are told. Regardless of motive, murder is illegal, and the legal system rightfully sets the bar at a very high level before excusing this act. Not so where the government is concerned. Our constitutional law professor president, Barack Obama, like his predecessor George W. Bush, claims the right to murder American citizens. Read More here

The Useless Logic of Round Numbers: A Massacre is a Massacre, a War of choice is a Crime

(GlobalResearch) – The media’s habit of revisiting certain issues at set intervals can be strange and even illogical at times. For example, many news outlets commented on President Barack Obama’s first 100 days in office, as well as on the anniversary of his election win, and then again one year after his inauguration day. With every new round number, more commentators joined in and discussions heated up between proponents and detractors of his government’s performance. Continue reading

The Evil of Sanctions

(FreedomDaily) – When strong governments wish to impose their will on weaker regimes, they often resort to sanctions. The effects have included the death or debilitation of millions of innocent people. Two good examples are Cuba, on which draconian U.S. sanctions have been enforced since 1960, and Iraq, where brutal sanctions were enforced from 1990 to 2003. Continue reading

MSM: Climategate – The Official Cover-up Continues

Video: Neocon Guerrilla’s in the Midst – Glenn Beck’s Take-down of Debra Medina

Were it not clear before yesterday in the manner which Glenn Beck sandbagged and set a trap for surging Texas gubernatorial candidate Debra Medina who was rising in the polls and closing in on establishment insiders Rick Perry and Kay Bailey Hutchinson, it should be clear now that Glenn Beck is an inside job, an establishment status quo shill masquerading and posing as a revolutionary. His job is to obfuscate the truth, to serve as an outlet for the supremely misguided and ill informed in America, a master manipulator, a minister of disinformation and propaganda telling authorized truths as a card carrying member of America’s propaganda matrix.

No doubt this hit list was drawn up in Tel Aviv. Continue reading

A Warning To The Tea Party Nation – Chuck Baldwin

As far as grassroots activism goes, the surge in Tea Parties across America is one of the more encouraging developments to recently take place. It reminds me of the “Conservative Revolution” of 1994, when the GOP reclaimed both the US Senate and House of Representatives. At that time, it had been over 40 years since the Republican Party controlled both the US House and Senate. And, between the two, the House victories were the most significant. Continue reading
