The simple fact that you actively engage in suppressing this and other alternative news sites means we have won and TRUTH will prevail in the end.

 The Corporate/Banker Run State of America -- Democracy Died Decades Past
Jake Johnson via cyd, Monday, Jun 25 2018, 8:46pm
Mega-Corporations and big banks run America, governments are a facade, window dressing, pure and simple, so it shouldn't surprise anyone that these entities work hand-in-glove in their self-interest. AT&T is but one of numerous large companies that work in the interests of minority elites to the great cost of the people and nation.

A World of Free Movement Would Be $78 Trillion Richer
staff report via claire, Sunday, Jun 24 2018, 9:29am
Consider a tiny spec of a planet in a far off solar system where its inhabitants are all divided and compete/fight with each other though if they worked together the planet would be a paradise not a hell hole. Indeed, that planet is OUR earth.
The following radical proposal is well worth a read and deep consideration, as continuing division and conflict is not only counter-productive but self-destructive.

Crisis in U.S. Power -- The Dollar System
F. William Engdahl via tony, Sunday, Jun 24 2018, 6:38am
This article is dated (2003), nevertheless it remains relevant, perhaps more so today than before.
No other nation on earth, alone, comes near to the commanding superiority in overall military and economic strength. The US position in the world since 1945, and especially since 1971, has rested on two pillars: The superiority of the US military over all, and, the role of the dollar as the world's reserve currency. However, the dollar is the Achilles heel of American hegemony today. (story and 2 images)

Russia LEGALLY Defends Ally Against US Illegal Occupation And Its Paid Proxy Fighters
Leith Aboufadel via rick, Sunday, Jun 24 2018, 1:15am
Orwell's new world of the inverted and absurd is alive and well TODAY. Russia has entered the Syrian war LEGALLY to defend a sovereign ally while America continues to ILLEGALLY occupy the country and engage in direct military action against sovereign state Syria and also continues to engage in indirect action by supporting Jihadist/extremist rebel forces in its pay. Furthermore, the criminal state that flouts all international laws and conventions, AMERICA, has issued a "stern warning" to Russia and the government of sovereign Syria NOT to interfere with its CRIMINAL activities of attempting to appropriate the precious oil and gas resources of SYRIA -- how's that for a classic Orwellian inversion, crime is right and legality/law is wrong?

Government Eyes Are Watching You: We Are All Prisoners of the Surveillance State
John W. Whitehead via trixie, Saturday, Jun 23 2018, 10:26am
First broadcast in America 50 years ago, The Prisoner—a dystopian television series described as “James Bond meets George Orwell filtered through Franz Kafka”—confronted societal themes that are still relevant today: the rise of a police state, the freedom of the individual, round-the-clock surveillance, the corruption of government, totalitarianism, weaponization, group think, mass marketing, and the tendency of humankind to meekly accept their lot in life as a prisoner in a prison of their own making.

Today’s Global Refugee Crisis and its CAUSE
rob, Friday, Jun 22 2018, 10:13pm
Prior to dealing with the outcome issue -- millions of refugees fleeing for their lives to other nations -- I would draw your attention to the fact that the elite owned and CFR managed western mass media goes to great pains NEVER to mention or discuss the OBVIOUS CAUSE of the refugee crisis globally.

In Whose Interest?
stacey, Friday, Jun 22 2018, 1:51am
It is farcical to imagine that ANY western government acts in the interests of the people today; all western governments serve their corporate and banker masters, fact, regardless of what they claim. Flying in the face of true Democracy the western world sees time and time again major parties promise this and that to the people and then renege on all their promises and act in the interests of the mega-rich and powerful MINORITY elites.

The New Nazi State -- America
peter, Wednesday, Jun 20 2018, 6:43am
The would-be Fuehrer of America, Donald Trump, true to form, has now openly embraced and deployed racist Nazi tactics on desperate immigrants attempting to cross the border into the United States. Trump’s shocking and inhuman practice of separating children from their parents and families is nothing more than a calculated tactic to hopefully stem the tide of immigrants seeking refuge, notwithstanding that corporate Trump supporters stand to make $millions from detention centres to house and concentrate the new ‘Jews, ’ that is, brown skinned Mexicans and Latinos.

Climate Catastrophe: NASA Scientist Blasts Complacency
Oliver Milman via jenny, Tuesday, Jun 19 2018, 10:23pm
The privately owned and shaped mass media is obsessively focused on petty, idiot 'news' as usual, Trump and other matters that do not concern the majority. However, climate change, now becoming a real catastrophe, CONCERNS ALL HUMANITY as its impact would be more than catastrophic. For instance, one third of the Great Barrier Reef is already DEAD due to climate change, numerous island nations in the Pacific have already been impacted by sea level changes, huge ice shelves in the Arctic and Antarctic are melting at an alarming rate, and the list goes on, particularly the impact on all our oceans and vital fish resources. But what is the mass media focused on? Trump and other non-critical idiotic political matters while climate barely rates a mention. The following comments from a specialist should alarm everyone, and hopefully galvanise the pathetic, irrelevant mass media to focus on critical matters that affect us all rather than irrelevancies and titillation.

US Provides Military Assistance to 73 Percent of World’s Dictatorships
Rich Whitney via brian, Friday, Jun 15 2018, 11:15pm
For decades, the American people have been repeatedly told by their government and corporate-run media that acts of war ordered by their president have been largely motivated by the need to counter acts of aggression or oppression by “evil dictators.” We were told we had to invade Iraq because Saddam Hussein was an evil dictator. We had to bomb Libya because Muammar Gaddafi was an evil dictator, bent on unleashing a “bloodbath” on his own people. Today, of course, we are told that we should support insurgents in Syria because Bashar al-Assad is an evil dictator, and we must repeatedly rattle our sabers at North Korea’s Kim Jong-un and Russia’s Vladimir Putin because they, too, are evil dictators.
