Connecticut Patriot Group Fights Back Against Confiscation Order: ‘We Are Armed… And Are Familiar With the Finer Points of Marksmanship’ Mac Slavo February 28th, 2014SHTFplan.com The war on liberty is coming to a head in Connecticut, where tens of thousands of gun owners have refused to comply with their state government’s gun registration laws. Officials have literally ordered those who failed to meet the registration deadline to surrender their firearms or face arrest. The State of Connecticut is now demanding that gun owners across the state turn in all newly-banned, unregistered firearms and magazines or face felony arrest. The State Police Special Licensing ...

Obama's Dirty Hands Manipulating Venezuelan Violence by Stephen Lendman He wants Venezuela looking like Ukraine. He wants fascists replacing democrats. He wants Washington dictating Venezuelan policy. He's mindless of what most Venezuelans cherish. Bolivarian fairness is polar opposite neoliberal contempt for social justice. It's too precious to lose. Venezuelans remember. February 27 marked the 25th anniversary of what's called "El Caracazo (meaning Caracas with the suffix 'azo')." A popular rebellion confronted former President Carlos Andres Perez's hated government. It lasted days. Security forces killed hundreds. Some estimates said thousands. ...
Connecticut Prepares for Gun Confiscation Over Citizens Not Abiding by New Laws

Think back to the day that the Boston Marathon bombers were found to be still in the city and martial law nearly took effect. The streets were empty, people were asked to remain indoors, and police took over the city streets with vehicles you typically only see in movies. Now, imagine a whole state with thousands of gun owners who refuse to register their firearms and magazines even though the government is threatening them to do so. That is exactly the scenario we are looking at in the state of Connecticut. In 2013, a law was passed that citizens of the state of Connecticut would have to register their modern sporting rifles and high-capacity magazines. For example, an AR-15 with a 30 ...
Cheerleading Ukrainian Fascism

Cheerleading Ukrainian Fascism by Stephen Lendman Major media scoundrels praise what demands condemnation. They reinvent history doing it. Managed news misinformation substitutes for legitimate journalism. More on this below. Ukraine's fascist coup against its democratically elected government was made in the USA. Washington's dirty hands manipulated things. Billions of dollars were spent doing it. Obama got another imperial trophy - if he can keep it. Events remain fluid. It's uncertain how they'll play out. For now, neo-Nazis control western Ukraine. Eastern areas reject them. Internal conflict may follow. Kiev fascists are consolidating power. They ordered dozens of ...

Back in 2013, Texas resident Larry Davis ran either a red light or stop sign (reports vary) in his Buick in the city of Austin. Despite his insistence that he had had only one drink, he was put in handcuffs and arrested for driving while intoxicated. Then, when he was given a Breathalyzer test by the AustinPolice Department, he blew a 0.00. Nonetheless, as KVUE reports, Mr. Davis spent the night in jail. While at the station, Mr. Davis agreed to give a blood sample as well, to prove he was not under the influence of any drugs or alcohol. The results would later come back 100% negative. Davis’ attorney, Daniel Betts, told KVUE, “My reaction was just shock that this happened." ...

Police State Ukraine by Stephen Lendman What kind of government establishes itself by force? What kind does it extrajudicially? What kind of legitimacy do ultranationalist, xenophobic, neo-Nazi, anti-Semites have? What kind substitutes unrestrained coercion for rule of law principles? What kind rules by intimidation? What kind eliminates all political opposition? What kind bans all opposition information and opinions? The same kind substituting fascist dictatorship for democracy. On Saturday, Ukrainian freedom died. Fascist extremism replaced it. Coup plotters seized power. They did so extrajudicially. They began consolidating rule straightaway. A previous article discussed it. ...

Wall Street Journal Reinvented History by Stephen Lendman Mary O'Grady a Wall Street Journal columnist. She's one of its editorial board members. She's a Rupert Murdoch favorite. She's a neocon propagandist. She defends the indefensible. She masquerades as a journalist. Her reinvented history doesn't wash. It doesn't pass the smell test. Her background gives her away. Earlier she worked for Advest, Inc., Thomson McKinnon Securities and Merrill Lynch. She's associated with the neocon Heritage Foundation. She co-edits its so-called Index of Economic Freedom. It's what most people worldwide deplore. She's a right-wing Liberty Fund (LF) board of ...

An Open Letter to Barack Obama by Stephen Lendman Congratulations, Mr. President. You're the latest in a long line of lawless leaders. You achieved rogue status without really trying. Contempt for rule of law principles, duplicity and moral cowardice define your administration. Pretense otherwise doesn't wash. Instead of improving lives for ordinary Americans, you created worse than ever conditions. You more than ever made America a gangster state. Millions worldwide call it a pariah one. They do so for good reason. You stole public wealth. You handed Wall Street crooks trillions of dollars. You gave war profiteers trillions more. You impoverished millions. You left 100 ...

Ukraine: Coup Plotters Consolidate Power by Stephen Lendman Events continue fast moving. The Wall Street Journal headlined "White House Backs Political Change in Ukraine," saying: "The Obama administration Saturday issued a cautiously worded statement about the swift political change in Ukraine, but generally endorsed the parliament's moves to set new presidential elections in May and to remove President Viktor Yanukovych from office." European officials reacted the same way, said the Journal. They "backed the decisions of the parliament and rejected Mr. Yanukovych's allegations of a coup." Britain officially recognized Ukraine's coup ...

The chief of police in Austin, Texas, addressed the controversial video showing a young jogger being arrested for jaywalking, insisting that his officers have done nothing wrong. In a press conference held Saturday, a defiant Chief Art Acevedo came out swinging against the critics of his department and refused to apologize for the arrest of 24-year-old Amanda Jo Stephen. Stephen was taken into custody while out for a run on 24th Street Thursday morning after she illegally crossed the street and then refused to give her name to police officers. Stephen's dramatic arrest marked by sobbing and yelling was captured by a bystander, Chris Quintero, whose video went viral after being ...

Unconditional Surrender in Ukraine by Stephen Lendman As things now stand, Obama won. EU partners won. Fascist extremists won. Russia lost. So did ordinary Ukrainians. Months of struggling for something better apparently turned out in vain. More on this below. Events remain fast-moving. Overnight negotiations produced an early Friday morning deal. Talks lasted eight hours. Opposition leaders Arseniy Yatsenyuk, Oleh Tyahnybok and Vitali Klitschko were involved. So were Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, Russian Human Rights ombudsman Vladimir Lukin, German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier and Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski.

Obama Targets Press Freedom by Stephen Lendman Obama is obsessed with secrecy. He wants government wrongdoing suppressed. Whistleblowers are criminalized for doing their job. Independent journalism is threatened. Helen Thomas (1920 - 2013) covered five decades of US administrations. She began during the Kennedy years. In July 2009, she complained about Obama. She called his press-controlling efforts unprecedented. "It's shocking. It's really shocking," she said. "What the hell do they think we are, puppets?" "They're supposed to stay out of our business. They are our public servants. We pay them." Press control is worse than ever before, she ...

Destabilizing Venezuela Continues by Stephen Lendman A previous article discussed multiple Obama regime change fronts. His rogue agenda exceeds the worst of his predecessors. He heads a homeland police state apparatus. He's waging war on humanity. He's ravaging one country after another. He wants independent governments in Syria, Iran, Ukraine and Venezuela toppled. He's got other targets in mind. It's hard keeping track of his lawlessness. He's got multiple initiatives ongoing at the same time. Tens of billions of taxpayer dollars fund efforts to destabilize governments en route to toppling them. Vital homeland needs go begging. Obama wants the same neoliberal ...

US-Stoked Violence Rocks Ukraine by Stephen Lendman Washington bears full responsibility for three months of street protest violence. At issue is toppling Ukraine's democratically elected government. More on this below. On Sunday, Ukraine offered amnesty to anti-government protesters. It did so provided they vacated occupied public buildings. An official statement said: Amnesty "comes into force from February 17, 2014 and stipulates that charges against the people having committed offenses…will be dropped." It took effect after protesters met authorities half-way. They left some occupied Kiev buildings. They evacuated others in Lvov, Ivano-Frankovsk ...

Britain Harasses Human Rights Lawyer by Stephen Lendman Britain, America and Israel are likeminded. They're rogue states. They're axis of evil partners. They operate ruthlessly. They mock democratic values. They trash rule of law principles. They tolerate no one challenging their lawlessness. They vilify them. They imprison some. They do so to threaten others. Most often they harass. They do it no-holds-barred. The Government Accountability Project (GAP) calls itself "the nation's leading whistleblower protection and advocacy organization." Jesselyn Radack is a prominent human rights lawyer/whistleblower. She's GAP's National Security & Human Rights ...

Obama's Multiple Regime Change Fronts by Stephen Lendman Previous articles discussed Obama's rogue agenda in detail. His destructive pattern continues unabated. Throughout his tenure, he did what supporters thought impossible. He exceeded the worst of George Bush. His policies replicate Republican hardliners. Neocons infest his administration. He's waging war on humanity. He's doing at home and abroad. He wrecked America's economy. He looted the nation's wealth. He handed Wall Street crooks multi- trillions of dollars. He gave trillions more to war profiteers. Other corporate favorites benefitted hugely. So did super-rich elites. Ordinary Americans struggle ...

Washington v. Chavismo by Stephen Lendman Destabilizing Venezuela is longstanding US policy. Chavez denounced it many times. President Nicolas Maduro does now. After his April 2013 election, he accused opposition candidate Henrique Capriles of coup plotting against him. "Preparations are under way for an attempt to de-recognize democratic institutions," he said. Dark forces never quit. Washington prioritizes regime change. Venezuela is a prime target. At the time, Maduro accused US embassy officials of plotting "acts of violence." He expelled two Obama military attaches. He accused another embassy employee of plotting sabotage against Venezuela's electrical ...

US Political Prisoner Near Death by Stephen Lendman Thousands of political prisoners languish in America's gulag. It's by far the world's largest. It's one of the most ruthless. Injustice is longstanding US policy. Political targets are guilty by accusation. Long prison terms are commonplace. Rogue states operate this way. America is by far the worst. Russian pilot Konstantin Yaroshenko is one of many innocent victims. Obama's Justice Department claimed: He's "an aircraft pilot and aviation expert who transported thousand-kilogram quantities of cocaine throughout South America, Africa, and Europe." "In his capacity as a pilot and businessman, ...

Disgraceful NYT Op-Eds by Stephen Lendman NYT policy is consistent. It's longstanding. It's deplorable. It's opposite of what readers deserve.

Published on Feb 10, 2014 I verbally objected to an unconstitutional search of my vehicle in Electra, Texas. Police officers Matt Wood and Gary Ellis maliciously responded by issuing me two false citations. I got a copy of the dashboard-camera video at the pretrial hearing. It showed all. City attorney Todd Greenwood demanded I give my copy of the evidence back, and tried to have me arrested when I refused. Todd Greenwood then compared rural Texas to the movie Deliverance, and warned me "What's written down in the Constitution is one thing, and the real practice is another." All charges dropped. Section 1983 anyone? Poster Comment:It's 18 minutes of the bad side of ...

The critical reader could be forgiven for feeling like he or she had stepped into a surreal universe while reading The New York Times on Tuesday? When he read, in a demure column on the left-hand side, that the U.S. was debating slaughtering another American by drone strike. And that this “debate” was occurring in the hallowed halls of justice where according to the U.S. Constitution our duly elected leaders shoulder the not inconsiderable burden of ensuring not only our safety, but also our recourse to a fair trial should we fall foul of the law. That before we are tossed into that mixer of ruinous injustice known as the American penal system, our accusers must bring clear ...

Grand Theft Healthcare by Stephen Lendman Healthcare is about prioritizing health. Medical professionals say it's about maintaining, restoring and preserving it. It's doing it through illness and disease prevention. It's obeying Hippocratic Oath principles. It's a sworn duty to heal. It's about rendering treatments effectively. It's doing it responsibly. It's doing no harm. Obamacare is polar opposite. Numerous previous articles explained. Marketplace medicine doesn't work. Obamacare is a healthcare rationing scheme. It's a boon to predatory providers. It enriches insurers, drug companies and large hospital chains. It does so at the expense of ...

Obama's Kill List by Stephen Lendman Obama heads an administration Murder, Inc. agenda. He appointed himself judge, jury and executioner. He targets anyone, anywhere for any reason or none at all. US citizens are vulnerable like foreign nationals. Murdering them in cold blood is one Obama signature away. Drones are his weapon of choice. They're instruments of state terror. They target alleged enemies half a world away or nearby. Rule of law principles don't matter. Obama makes his own rules. Despots govern this way. He operates like the worst of them. He does so with technological ease. The Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) says Obama's kill list mocks due process ...
