Congress: "Corrupt to the Core"

Sleaze balls 'R Us








Who are the most dangerous thieves in America?

That's easy and it's not that hard to find them.

They have a branch office in every state of the union.​

The new US health care program

The Obama Plan is the Romney Plan and both of them are a total joke






You already know it's a total scam.

But here are the details.

Funny and illuminating...​

How JP Morgan "supports" the troops

Illegal foreclosures on soldiers overseas





"It's all about the troops"

Unless it comes to a too-big-to-fail bank...

Then they can break any law, impose any hardship, engage in any underhanded scheme and it's A-OK.​

It takes a lot to get people to suck down poison

Do NOT watch this if you're quitting or trying to quit









A short meditation on the nature of the US news media.

Warning; Do not watch if you're quitting or trying to quit smoking.​

Romney Family Owns Ohio Voting Machines

And there's no law against it


If there's no law against it, I guess you can do it.

Insanity at the ballot box - again.​

"The Sky Is Pink"

How PR poisons the world







The topic is fracking, but it could apply to anything.

Up is down, good is bad, black is white.

Corporate PR with their compliant friends in the "news" media pave the way for mass misery.​

Try to film Congress, get arrested.

Director of "Gasland," the fracking documentary, taken away in handcuffs when he tries to shed light on Congressional chicanery.​

Battle at the top for UFO disclosure













Never having personally seen a UFO, I don't know what to make of them.

On the other hand, some very intelligent and reliable sources say there is indeed "something out there", source unknown.

That said, here's some insight into the politics behind the control of this information.

Fascinating.​

Please Move The Deer Crossing Signs

This woman is serious










Big storm coming to our neck of the woods..

And it's Monday.

Time for a little humor.​

Philip K Dick: Science Fiction Prophet

"A Day in the Afterlife"







A little "Arts and Leisure" for a Saturday afternoon.

Once there was a time before Internet...before high definition video...before cable...before color TV...

One novelist wrote about our age, and what it would be like, decades before it happened.

His fans called him PDK.

Meet Philip K. Dick.​

Iraq, Libya and 9/11

Jailed for telling the truth











A CIA whistle blower, jailed for telling the truth, is out and still talking.​
























:hmm:
 
What's Behind the Libya Attack?













What really happened at the Libyan consulate?

Obviously, the "official story" makes no sense.

Here's an informed view.​

Free Lunch and Corporate Welfare

Bill Moyers and David Cay Johnston










Eye opening details about how the government works with big corporations to rip us off.

It's not just banking. It's in every aspect of life.​

Crony Capitalism - American Style

We're still living in the Reagan Era














Truly scary. Good for Halloween.

How American life has been totally skewed in favor of a handful against the interests of the country.​
























:hmm:
 
Some truth about the 14th Street SubstationI'd like to believe them, but I don't...

Read text below





It's one thing to be out in the countryside with no power.

Even the suburbs are manageable.

But over 250,000 people in an eight square mile area - many in high rises and some elderly and disabled?

Major holes in the city's promise to turn the power back on soon that no one
seems to be willing to talk about.​

How to Fix Health Care in the US

Karl Denninger










It's one of the biggest problems the US faces.

We have increasingly poor medical services at increasingly higher costs.

At some point this is a problem that can bankrupt the nation.

The real story of how we got here - and how to get out.​




















:hmm:
 
Helping the Third World?

How GMOs poison farmers in the developing world












The chemical companies that want to ram genetically modified organisms down our throats make the following claim:

"The world, especially the rural poor, need GMOs to feed themselves."

Here's the truth about what happens to people when they are forced to live on a GMO-only diet.​






















:hmm:
 
Corporate thugs vs science and your health

Vote YES on your right to know












As someone who has been studying institutional corruption for over two decades I thought I'd seen it all.

What I never counted on - even in my most dystopian science fiction fantasies - was the corruption of science in the service of companies
that want to profit by feeding us poison.

Well, we're here - and we have to take a stand.

This is a battle we can win, but ONLY if people know the truth, please share this one far and wide.​
























:hmm:
 
Vote YES to Your Right to Know

California: Make them label GMO












Genetically modified organisms...

Do you really want to be eating them?

Well, in the US (unlike most other countries), you do not have a choice.

Californians are trying to change that.

If they win, we all win.

If you can vote in California vote YES on Proposition 37.

Let your California friend know.​
























:hmm:
 
Allergies, autism and GMOs

The poisoning or our children














Yes, it's GMO week here at Brasscheck TV.

Why?

We can recover from a lot of things.

We can't recover from having our food supply systematically contaminated.

Pass it on.​




























:hmm:
 
Save your health/Stop eating GMOs

Here's how to avoid them












The Monsanto/Dow criminals have succeeded in nearly totally colonizing the US supply of corn, soybeans, beet sugar and a handful of other key crops.

Does they mean they've won?

No. Far from it.

First of all, they can't poison you and your family without your permission.

Here's the info you need to protect yourself.​
























:hmm:
 
The best diet

Yes, there really is one













Yes, there really is a best diet.

You can believe what you want, but the science is in and it's crystal clear.

(This diet is also an EASY way to avoid GMOs, hormones, chemicals, and ther
contaminants and criminal adulterations of our food supply.)

Must watching - and sharing.​

Wozniak: Web crackdown coming, freedom failing











Remember when the rising stars were people who made useful things?

Now the "stars" are financial industry scavengers and Surveillance State
suppliers.

Here's what they guy who helped kickstart the personal computer revolution thinks about where we're headed.

Coping with the aftermath (11/7/12)

Help: http://www.HelpAfterSandy.org















I don't know what the reporting about post Hurricane Sandy is outside of New York.

There doesn't seem to be much.

Here's the deal:

This is Katrina with cold weather

And with about the same amount of help from FEMA, Red Cross etc.
Next to nothing.

I was in Far Rockaway, Queens yesterday and this video sums up CURRENT conditions - with another major storm on the way.​



















:hmm:
 
How to Fix Health Care in the US

Karl Denninger












I learned with some shock that the forces of evil - Monsanto, Dow and the
corporate peddlers of their GMO products - succeeded in killing the food labeling law in California.

This is not over...watch this space for details.

Meanwhile...

The core problem with US health care is that the entire system is criminally corrupt from top to bottom.

Until that's addressed, there will be no progress.

And of course, neither candidate Tweedly-Dee nor Tweedle-Dee- Dumb addressed that.​


























:hmm:
 
Information current as of 11/10/2012

It's easy to help

Instructions:

Step 1. Select a region.

Step 2. Read about the local groups that are serving the community.

Step 3. Select the need(s) you can fill and contact the organization to arrange delivery details of the specific items they need now.

Thanks!















The post-Sandy catastrophe continues.

It's Katrina with cold weather and only a massive volunteer effort is holding things together.

Note: FEMA closed its office yesterday because of snow flurries.

Please share widely.​

Turning Mexico in a war zone (2010)

The Queen of Mena speaks and more











Is the US going to turn Mexico and other South American countries into Iraq and Afghanistan?

Maybe it already has.

A look at the drug business and the "endless anti-insurgency."​
























:hmm:
 
What is the government good for?

Not a whole lot it turns out












Here's what governments do well:

1. Cash extraction (taxation),
2. Influence peddling (selling the country out to the highest bidder),
3. Bribe distribution (see items #1 and #2),

When it comes to these things the government works like a well oiled machine.

As for everything else, not so well.

You need to know what's going on in New York and New Jersey.

Don't think it can't happen in your home town.​
























:hmm:
 
The Red Cross is NOT helping

Just like after 9/11 and Katrina







The Red Cross is taking its sweet time getting help to freezing, hungry and homeless victims of Sandy.

But their barrage of "gimme" TV commercials cashing in on the post-Sandy catastrophe is running full steam ahead.​























:hmm:
 
Who's helping, who's not

Hint: FEMA is not






Who's helping - and who is not - as the social catastrophe following Hurricane Sandy unfolds.​































:hmm:
 
"The world as it is"

Slow motion coup d'etat










Are we an empire?

If we are, will we share the fate of all other empires?

And if so, exactly how far down the road are we?

Straight, unsugared talk from Chris Hedges.

Good post-election watching.​
