Posted on by

“The Dantzlers refused to allow the police to enter and search their home and indicated that they should get a warrant if they wanted to do so. One officer then seized Huntly Dantzler, handcuffed him, pulled him away from the door and threw him to the ground. Alarmed by the treatment of her husband and the inherent coercion, Susan Dantzler allowed one of the officers to enter the house and look around. After searching the house and finding nothing, the officers left. Huntly Dantzler was compelled to seek medical care for deep gashes on wrists left by the handcuffs.”

US Spy Chiefs Reverse Course on Phone Spying — But Just For Huawei

Posted on by

“The FBI and other US intelligence agencies are suddenly and ever so deeply concerned with preserving your smart phone privacy.  Testifying before the US Senate Intelligence Committee, officials from the FBI, CIA, NSA, et al. warned Americans against using phones made by Chinese companies Huawei and ZTE.  Why? Because, Christopher Wray (Comey’s successor at the FBI) explains, the Chinese government might equip, or find and exploit weaknesses in, such phones to ‘maliciously modify or steal information’ and ‘conduct undetected espionage.'”

The Military Industrial Complex Will Bankrupt America

Posted on by

“The Trump Administration is pushing for a $4.4 trillion budget for fiscal year 2019 that would add $7 trillion to the already unsustainable federal deficit in order to sustain America’s military empire abroad and dramatically expand the police state here at home. Trump also wants American taxpayers to cover the cost of building that infamous border wall.  Truly, Trump may turn out to be, as policy analyst Stan Collender warned, ‘the biggest deficit- and debt-increasing president of all time.'”
