Thoughts
From Danny Sjursen
Remember that the owners of this country - the real owners in the corporate military-industrial complex - count on your apathy. They count on a distracted populace. They count on you not caring so they can perpetuate ill-advised, counterproductive (but quite profitable) wars indefinitely.

So why is it that absolutely no one or no group dares to bring any part of the United States government into any state or federal court to prosecute their illegal acts at home and abroad??? Where are all of these so-called " Constitutionalists " that cite the United States Constitution every day and night but never ever use their law degrees to challenge our rogue government in any court of law???

There are two places on our troubled planet where world war III could start!!! One is a nuclear war between India and Pakistan!! The other, and the most likely place, is a war between Israel and Iran!! Yes Israel, with backing by the United States could easily wipe out Iran, but would China and Russia stand idly by and let that happen or would they provide arms to Iran to fight back??? Sooner or later the United States is going to start something that is going to get out of hand and put this world on a path toward extinction!!!

Donald Trump is as phony as a three dollar bill!! The United States of America is as phony as a three dollar bill!!
It is all a grand make believe charade to hide what this country is all about!! As the Congresswoman said: " It is all about the Benjamins"!! It is all about the money and nothing else matters!! No morality, no ethics, no God, no nothing; just the money and my getting my piece of it!! Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton have different genders but they are both slimy crooked criminals that our political parties put before us to choose from!!! Our government is way beyond corrupt; are population is way beyond ever waking up to any hint of reality!! That is just the way that it is here!!! The " Trance " is worshiped because the fog of make believe hides all of the very nasty demons!!!

From James Bovard
A democratic government that respects no limits on its own power is a ticking time bomb, waiting to destroy the rights it was created to protect.

The " main stream media (and whomever is pulling their strings)" have a " Russia " agenda that they are ruthlessly following!! The " Democratic Party " is wholeheartedly on board with this agenda!! Meanwhile President Trump and the Republican Party are hellbent on going after every Obama official possible to " lock them up " for their illegal actions while they ran the United States government!! I am just one old man but it looks to me like very serious American Chaos is right around the corner!! Fasten your seat belts folks because there is absolutely no way of telling just how insanely rough this ride is going to be!!!

The " coup plotters in the U.S.A. " are probably already considering that Mr. Juan Guaidos stock has expired and that he needs to be replaced!!! Mr. Juan Guaido gets killed and the U.S.A. blames it on " the dictator " and sends U.S. troops there to " restore order " and " liberate " all of the oil!!!!

From Judge Damon J. Keith
Democracies die behind closed doors.
The unfettered right to vote is the bedrock of a free and democratic society - without it, such a society cannot stand.
He did the best he could with his God-given talent, and he used his life and the law to try to make things better for all Americans.

Politicians and diapers must be changed often and for the same reason.

From President Jimmy Carter
President Carter said the United States has been at peace for only 16 of its 242 years as a nation. Counting wars, military attacks and military occupations, there have actually only been five years of peace in United States history-1976, the last year of the Gerald Ford administration and 1977-80, the entirety of President Carters presidency. President Carter then referred to the United States as "the most warlike nation in the history of the world," a result, he said, of the United States forcing other countries to "adopt our United States of American principles."

From Thomas Merton
The immature conscience is one that bases its judgments partly, or even entirely, on the way other people seem disposed toward its decisions. The good is what is admired or accepted by the people it lives with. The evil is what irritates or upsets them. Even when the immature conscience is not entirely dominated by people outside itself, it nevertheless acts only as a representative of some other conscience. The immature conscience is not its own master. It is merely the delegate of the conscience of another person, or of a group, or of a party, or of a social class, or of a nation, or of a race. Therefore, it does not make real moral decisions of its own, it simply parrots the decisions of others. It does not make judgments of its own, it merely "confirms" to the party line. It does not really have motives or intentions of its own. Or if it does, it wrecks them by twisting and rationalizing them to fit the intentions of another. That is not moral freedom.

Some people call it " The Deep State "!!! They are the " behind the scenes " people that actually run this country!! Every United States President is like the " head ornament " on a car; we get a new head ornament every election!! The last " Real President of the United States " was John F. Kennedy!!! President Kennedy went up against the deep state and he was killed for it!! Everybody either follows the deep states masters orders or they suffer the consequences!!! Human beings are a " bloodthirsty species "; we kill each other for any reason or for no reason except to just kill!!! Our " inhumanity to everything " is what we excel in; of that there can be no doubt!!! Donald Trump is our present " hood ornament " but he is surrounded by people like Pompeo and Bolton who were sent over to him by the deep state to make him do whatever they want!!! They call us " taxpayers " but we are just fools that are mesmerized by the charade that we are the good guys!!!

More From Thomas Paine
Society in every state is a blessing, but government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one; for when we suffer, or are exposed to the same miseries by a government, which we might expect in a country without government, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer.

From William Ellery Channing
I call that mind free which protects itself against the usurpations of society, which does not cower to human opinions, which feels itself accountable to a higher tribunal than mans.

From Ryan McMaken
Lawmakers, courts, and their accomplices have managed to define down who is a journalist in order to protect the government from embarrassment. Establishment journalists have been happy to play along, claiming special privileges for themselves while demanding those outside their circle of friends be sent to federal prison.
