Another fake government “cyber attack”

Fora decade, government supremacists have demanded that people surrender freedom of speech and press and allow the government to take control of the internet.

They frequently claim “cyber terrorists” will use the internet to shut down the “power grid” or otherwise disrupt American life.

Of course the nation’s power plants are not online and are safe from such threats. (They would be even safer without government ‘public utility commissions’ controlling them.)

Yesterday the (secretly government-funded) Washington Post proclaimed that a Vermont electric utility had fallen victim to “Russian hackers” (perhaps the same Russian hackers who convinced 90 percent of U.S. counties to vote against Hillary by spreading “fake news”).

The Post story quickly collapsed upon scrutiny and the Post has quietly retracted it. See here.

As Venezuelan Socialism Collapsed, America’s Government Trusters Never Saw it Coming

By Roger Roots,
founder, Lysander Spooner University

I remember many conversations with fellow graduate students while I obtained my Ph.D. in Sociology at UNLV around 2002-2004. Socialist politics had recently taken power in Venezuela and my fellow grad students all spoke warmly of Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez.

Some of my friends told me that Venezuela was plowing new ground for “the people” by throwing off the oppression of Capitalism. Venezuela would soon be an example of the wonders of central planning, I was told.

Today after 15 years of socialism, the people struggle to survive by dumpster diving, and eating dogs, cats and pigeons. Starving Venezuelan prisoners recently killed, cooked and ate a fellow inmate for food. Other Venezuelans have broken into zoos to kill and cook rare horses and other zoo animals for food. Hookers turn tricks for as little as a tube of toothpaste or a box of diapers.

Writer Jeff Jacoby has a new column recounting the deceptions and excuses offered by prominent government trusters regarding Venezuela over the years.

In a Salon piece titled “Hugo Chavez’s economic miracle,” David Sirota declared that the Venezuelan ruler, with his “full-throated advocacy of socialism,” had “racked up an economic record that . . . American president[s] could only dream of achieving.” The Guardian offered “Three cheers for Chavez.” Moviemaker Oliver Stone filmed a documentary gushing over “the positive changes that have happened economically in all of South America” because of Venezuela’s socialist government. And when Chavez died in 2013, Jimmy Carter extolled the strongman for “improving the lives of millions of his fellow countrymen.”

Pro-government “news” sources say the North Pole is much warmer than normal; but conceal record cold in nearby Greenland and Siberia

Days ago, the government-worshipping New York Times published a headline saying “Spiking Temperatures in the Arctic Startle Scientists.”

But the Times fails to mention that the unusual warm temps at the North Pole are a fluke caused by a weather pattern.

The same weather pattern has pushed record cold temps into nearby Siberia and Greenland.

The Greenland ice sheet is at AN ALL TIME HIGH. Greenland ice levels are growing faster than ever recorded. See here.

Government now stealing newborn babies from parents who refuse to get Social Security numbers for the babies

Here is a news story for anyone who thinks America is a free society.

Two proud parents in Alabama went to pick up their newborn baby from a hospital only to find that the government had stolen their baby.

The reason: the parents were unfit because they refused to “apply for” (apparently meaning accept) a Social Security Number for the child!

The Social Security program was always supposed to be completely voluntary. Many thousands if not millions of Americans have no Social Security numbers and many others have 2 or more.

Chinese government arrests civil liberties activist for exposing “state secrets”

Every government ultimately comes for all property, all freedom, and to kill all who resist.

For decades, Chinese governments chased, hunted, imprisoned and killed libertarian advocates or critics of the state.

This repression eased slightly with market freedoms, and as Chinese society slowly became more prosperous.

Now, however, The founder of one of China’s few websites dedicated to reporting human rights abuses has been formally arrested for “leaking state secrets”, Amnesty International said Thursday — the latest blow in a broad crackdown on activists. See here.

As millions of Americans struggle to live in trailers and shacks, the employees of the federal government increasingly live in luxury.

According to the U.S. Census, 9 of the nation’s 20 wealthiest counties are suburbs of Washington, D.C., where overpaid federal employees live like royalty. See here.

And one of the 20 richest counties is Los Alamos, New Mexico, where money-gorged federal defense labs and contractors dominate the economy.

Facebook increasingly networking with government; will launch censorship operation

isis

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has often met secretly with U.S. President Obama at the White House and elsewhere. The corporation–which monitors millions of users–has now launched an operation to regulate its content for “fake news.”

“Fake news” is a government-generated meme currently circulating widely in mainstream (i.e., government supporting) news media.

The government and its trusters and acolytes have suggested that news critical of government declarations, statements or decrees is “fake news.”

Now Facebook will monitor and label “news.”

“A company spokesperson told Business Insider that the social network will also use other signals, like algorithms that detect whether a story that appears fake is going viral” and then “bury it in peoples’ feeds.”

Venezuelans give away their children to save them from socialist poverty

pover

Just 15 years ago, Venezuelans were among the richest and freest people in Latin America.

Then the country voted for socialism.

Now Venezuelans struggle for daily survival. The government dispenses all food, education and medical care. Men die in the streets fighting over dollars. Women walk the streets as prostitutes for as little as a package of diapers or a tube of toothpaste.

Families dig through trashbins for food. Cats, dogs and pigeons are regularly eaten for food.

Groups of Venezuelans have broken into zoos to cook and eat zebras and other animals.

Starving Venezuelan prisoners killed, cooked and ate another inmate for survival.

Now families with daughters are giving them away because “It’s better that she has another family than go into prostitution, drugs or die of hunger.” See here.

Update: U.S. Department of Homeland Security attempted to hack Georgia’s election computers TEN TIMES

2016-07-05t123425z_1461976969_d1betnvemrab_rtrmadp_3_pamplona-bulls-protest-jpg

We previously reported that the Georgia Secretary of State’s office computers were attacked prior to the election by an IP address that was traced back to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

The money-gorged Department had been releasing press statements throughout the election year claiming that the Department needed to “protect” state election systems from attacks by foreigners.

It has now come out that the Department sought to invade the Georgia Secretary of State’s office TEN (10) times.

Was the Department trying to invade the election computers in order to stage a false flag attack? Such an operation would be consistent with the Department’s claims that “the Russians” hacked the election.
