Benjamin Fulford May 20 2013 - Signs of end game in Washington D.C. proliferate
One of the most frustrating but necessary things for journalists is to hold information on embargo until a go ahead is given for publishing. This is one of those frustrating times. Embargoes are needed to ensure plans are not sabotaged and lives are not endangered.
Rand Paul Call For Independent Commission On The IRS Targeting Of Tea Party Groups
Rand Paul Call For Independent Commission On The IRS Targeting Of Tea Party Groups
The IRS is nothing but a collection agency of the Rothschild/Rockefeller private federal reserve bank,which is not federally owned or controled at all.Geting rid of the IRS is the right and moral thing to do, and the PTB do plan to close it down. However, what they plan to replace it with is going to be FAR WORSE. This is why we all need to help FORCE the taken down of the IRS but also make sure NOTING else is put in it’s place. We cannot let them try and put the scandals back in closet if they see that replacing it with their planned scheme is not working.

Michael Rivero is the webmaster of http://whatreallyhappened.com/ and host of the What Really Happened radio shows on the Republic Broadcasting Network. Formerly with NASA, Michael transitioned his image processing skills (along with a brief stint as an actor) into the then-new motion picture computer animation field and has worked on films such as "Star Trek", "The Day After Tomorrow", and has supervised visual effects on "Brainscan," "LOST", and "Hawaii Five-0." Michael has taken a sabbatical from film work to focus all his efforts on peace activism. Michaels foray into blogging began before the word was even invented, and happened almost by accident when he spotted a suspicious photograph being broadcast on ABC news in 1994 related to the death of White House deputy Council Vincent Foster. Since that sudden beginning, Michaels website has expanded to cover diverse topics including the JFK assassination, the accidental shoot-down of TWA 800, election fraud, health issues, Saddams non-existent nuclear weapons, 9-11, the economy, and of course, the lies used to trick the United States into wars of conquest on Afghanistan, Iraq, and now Iran. Michael resides in Hawaii with his wife Claire, who is a composer and creates much of theme music used on the What Really Happened radio show.

Government Controlling People with Force and Fear is Almost Over
There is the ultimate world war taking place between those who are manipulated and those who are manipulating.
This war has gone on for thousands of years. People being controlled by fear by a few people at the top, who are controlling the police and military with fear, to do their dirty work to control the population of the world with fear. The people giving the orders are really cowards themselves. Kids in school used to do this. They would buy the toughest guy sweets and cakes, and give him money for protection, it’s very similar. They are buying the might of the military they created to protect themselves and steal and kill for them, to amass great fortunes and power.
The military are a bit like hunting dogs who are told ‘fetch’ with one point of a finger in the direction of Iraq, Libya, Syria or anywhere, and off they go without questioning their masters, until the masters say stop, and call them back with the catch or kill. Often splendid treasures are returned of oil, gold, minerals, money, swathes of land, and millions of ‘orphans’ for the unscrupulous IMF to adopt and manipulate with false love and bank loans, imprisoning them for generations to come.
The Government oligarchs have in essence bred a huge pack of dogs for protection as a mighty force around them. They teach them to fight and kill, and most importantly to take orders. It is quite simple, and works really well, imposing the ultimate threat of violence or death for the population if they dare to resist. The military enforcing the threats to the people are ironically also controlled by fear of Court Martial, imprisonment or death themselves if they dare to try to escape the hands of those that control and feed them, and their families wellbeing is also at stake.
Any megalomaniac can control people by fear and force, history is full of them. It is a sickness that the people of the world have been subjected to for thousands of years, over and over again. It is so instilled and accepted now as the normal thing, that up till now it has carried on, with the people believing that the police and military are protecting them. The shocking realisation now is that the military are the governments protection for themselves against anyone that threatens them, including its own population who they know would turn on them in a moment if they weren’t frightened of the police and military.
This is a pretty interesting truth to ponder over. What kind of system is this? Is it not a virtual concentration camp without walls? That answer is obvious. Anyone who doubted this is now seeing the proof of it playing out across the world, with people so crushed that the innate fear is dissipating and the stage is being set. I am convinced that the military and the CIA covert operatives are about to completely disarm the Governments once they feel they cannot live with the knowledge that they are working for evil instead of good, and there is no doubt now that they are on the wrong side, and for most people that’s too big a burden to carry through your life.
What is playing out at the moment in the Middle East is that the manipulators are using the already manipulated people’s despair to win them over, and tyrants are replacing tyrants with new lies and deceit, but the people are not so stupid any more, and will soon realize this.
Nobody would be resisting, demonstrating, and fighting against suppression if there wasn’t any, nobody is imagining being a suppressed slave for life. This truth is a good indicator as to how well a system is. If people are in harmony and feel in peace and at one with a system that is making them whole and fulfilled then there would be peace and harmony throughout, with no need for uprisings or unrest. The uprising is a natural effect ‘springing’ from a suppression. The only reason it doesn’t happen every day is because of brainwashing and fear, a powerful combination.
But holding people down can only last so long. It is very similar to trying to stop the rising of a fountain with its beautiful force and energy pushing out of the ground upward, in the most natural way. If you were to try to smother that fountain of that life loving, living force, it would burst out somewhere else nearby, and you could try all you liked, but that fountain would keep reaching for freedom the more you supressed it. People are that fountain, their spirits however tired want the freedom to reach skywards, and burst forth and flourish, and be all they can be, not just slaves living hand to mouth. This is what is taking place on this planet, people want to be free and gush forth as the beautiful living fountains that they are.
If we cannot rise in one place then we must rise in another, by bringing forth our fountains of energy together as a mighty force where we cannot be controlled. Which means creating our own systems independent of destructive leaders.
Interestingly the fountain analogy is a good one, and more of a reality than an analogy because the truth is that humans are actually not solid, but literally fountains of energy that are renewing themselves continually, that is a fact on a very real level of science and can be proved. All matter and energy occur in waves, and we are no exception, so we are standing waves of energy like fountains.
It is worth quoting again some words by a great teacher of mine that sounds timely in our current planetary emergency:
‘The people of the ‘democracies’ are living under oppression, with continuance built into the laws enacted by the party clique in control, which even the elections or the revolutions change only in name, not in psychological type or character.
This situation of rule by gangs of the most deceptively unscrupulous people in a country will continue unchallenged until human society is enabled to function benignly and independently of destructive leaders. We call this enabling point the inception of manual override as will be seen’. - Musaios. Jason Liosatos. www.jasonliosatos.com

Bill O'Reilly : Obama as Being a Power Mad Control Freak - Laura Ingraham Radio Show
Bill O'Reilly Analyzes Obama as Being a Power Mad Control Freak - Laura Ingraham Radio Show
5/20/13 - Bill O'Reilly is definitely not a psychiatrist, but that didn't stop him from offering up his own diagnosis of President Obama's "control" issues on Laura Ingraham's radio show Monday. According to O'Reilly, growing up without a father in the house has led directly to Obama's desire to "control his environment" in the White House. O'Reilly told Ingraham that "control" is a "hallmark of Barack Obama's personality." He mused, "I don't want to be a psychiatrist here, but when you're a kid raised in a real turbulent situation... no authoratative figure, no father, all of that, when you get to be an adult, the chances are you're going to want to control your environment." The Fox host conceded that "every president" wants "control" and "loyalty" to some degree, but with Obama is goes a step further, saying it rises to the level of "absolute power." And "most of his acolytes give him that," O'Reilly said, "they just bow down to Barack Obama." He suggested that the only people capable of telling the president he's "wrong" are First Lady Michelle Obama and adviser Valerie Jarrett. O'Reilly suggested that all of this explains why the administration goes after leaks so aggressively. While he doesn't think someone like, say, Ronald Reagan would have cared much about going after whistle-blowers, "it's a big thing for Obama."

David Icke : The Left is a Controlled Opposition
David Icke And Alex Jones To Speak At The Bilderberg Fringe Festival Sat 08 Jun 2013 in Watford
David Icke is one of the most visible outspoken and controversial speakers and writers about the Illuminati and the New World Order control agenda
Some David Icke Quotes :
A gift of truth is the gift of love.
David Icke
And why do we, who say we oppose tyranny and demand freedom of speech, allow people to go to prison and be vilified, and magazines to be closed down on the spot, for suggesting another version of history.
David Icke
Everyone is a son or daughter of god.
David Icke
Have you ever wondered what your subconscious mind looks like? Well today, I can show you.
David Icke
I am a channel for the Christ spirit. The title was given to me very recently by the Godhead.
David Icke
I believe that the human race has developed a form of collective schizophrenia in which we are not only the slaves to this imposed thought behavior, but we are also the police force of it.
David Icke
I couldn't walk down any street in Britain without being laughed at. It was a nightmare. My children were devastated because their dad was a figure of ridicule.
David Icke
I know that you are part of me and I am part of you because we are all aspects of the same infinite consciousness that we call God and Creation.
David Icke
In the Atlantean period there were many energies being used and information and knowledge being used which were, for particular reasons of safety, withdrawn, shall we say, to prevent complete catastrophe, to prevent total destruction of your planet.
David Icke
Infinite love is the only truth. Everything else is illusion.
David Icke
One of my very greatest fears as a child was being ridiculed in public. And there it was coming true. As a television presenter, I'd been respected. People come up to you in the street and shake your hand and talk to you in a respectful way.
David Icke
So reports of my madness, as they say, were greatly exaggerated. Not that I give a bugger either way.
David Icke
The best way of removing negativity is to laugh and be joyous.
David Icke
The Earth needs rebels!
David Icke
The reason most people don't express their individuality and actually deny it, is not fear of what prime ministers think of us or the head of the federal reserve, It's what their families and their friends down at the bar are going to think of them.

Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut, that held its ground.

Why is not Switzerland invaded by the bad guys?
The citizenry is armed, works both for foreign invasions and local tyrants booting their arses to kingdom come.

Plain, simple objective fact.
Michelle Malkin: IRS Scandal & The 'Chicago Way' - Megyn Kelly - Happening Now - 5-20-13
Michelle Malkin to Megyn Kelly: IRS Not Just Scandal Because Of 'Ideology,' 'Obama's Intimidation'
(May 20, 2013) - Michelle Malkin joined Megyn Kelly on Fox News Monday afternoon to discuss the latest developments in the investigation into the IRS targeting conservatives for audits. Malkin insisted it was not merely her "ideology" that has led to critique the Obama administration on their handling of the IRS issue and others, but rather the evidence she's seen of their "bully brigade tactics" to "intimidate and criminalize their political opponents."
Malkin began by going after White House Press Secretary Jay Carney for his handling of the various Obama "scandals," saying the "clown Carney press briefings have turned in to a circus. We need Benny Hill music for all the backpedaling going on there." On the IRS issue specifically, she added, "the idea that they had no idea about the bombshells that were about to explode is completely laughable."
"Of course you don't buy it," Kelly said to Malkin, "because you're a conservative and you don't really like this particular president's policies. But, the question is whether this is seeping out beyond party politics."
This line of questioning led to Malkin's assertion that it is not simply her political leanings that are causing her to criticize President Obama. After a break, she continued bashing the administration's "brass-knuckled intimidation. whether it's directed now against grassroots activists or small nonprofits or reporters and journalists like James Rosen," referring to the Fox reporter who was tracked by the Justice Department. Malkin urged "everyone who has felt the boot of the Obama administration and its goons on their necks" to show solidarity by joining the Tea Party Patriots in their march against IRS offices tomorrow around the country.

Bilderberg 2013 ~ Why don't the Mainstream Media report on The Bilderberg Meetings? - Gerard Batten MEP
Why don't the mainstream media report on Bilderberg meetings? - Gerard Batten MEP
• European Parliament, Strasbourg, 20 May 2013
• Speaker: Gerard Batten MEP, UKIP (London), Europe of Freedom and Democracy (EFD) group -
Transcript:
Thank you, Mr President. The commision has recently replied to my written question, confirming that Commissioners Almunia and Kroes, attended the Bilderberg meeting in St.Moritz in June.
The commission cannot tell me details of what was discussed but assured me that the Bilderberg meetings do not take decisions. If Bilderberg meetings are just talking shops, why do the most important and powerful figures from around the world, including George Osborne, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, bother to attend?
And what other summit of world leaders in Politics, finance and business would go completely unreported in the mainstream media such as the BBC?
It is impossible not to reach the conclusion that the non reporting of these events is anything other than a conspiracy between the organisers and the media.
It merely confirms the belief of many that the hidden agenda and purpose of the Bilderberg group is to bring about undemocratic world government.
It is a disgrace that the European commission is colluding in that.

Sustainable and Frugal Living The Heart of Los Angeles
Erik Knutzen and Kelly Coyne have been farming their yard in Los Angeles for over a decade. In addition to a mini orchard and extensive veggie garden, they have all the instruments of an urban homestead: chickens, bees, rainwater capture, DIY greywater, solar fruit preserver, humanure toilet, rocket stove, adobe oven. But they don't like to talk about sustainability of self-sufficiency, instead they prefer the term self-reliance.
"I don't like the goal of self-sufficiency, I think it's a fool's errand to chase that goal," explains Knutzen. "I think we live in communities, human beings are meant to live, and trade and work together. I think self-reliance is okay, in other words, knowing how to do things."
Knutzen and Coyne share their tinkering, DIY and small scale urban agriculture experiments on their blog Root Simple and in their books "The Urban Homestead: Your Guide to Self-Sufficient Living in the Heart of the City" and "Making It: Radical Home Ec for a Post Consumer World". They believe in the value of shop classes and old-school home economics (back when you learned how to make things, not shop for things).
For the couple, their true goal with all of this self-reliance is freedom to live as they please. By growing their own and canning, pickling, preserving, freezing and baking their own breads and beans, they live frugally. They also only own one car (plus a cargo bike), one cellphone and no tv. "I think a lot of it has to do with our overdriving ambition to be free," explains Coyne, "makes being cheap fun, because it means you can be free".
Financial Fraud prosecutions down despite Obama's promise
corporate crime is overlooked as are the wealthy and the powerful in every state in the union,from behemoth Washington to tiny vero beach,Florida,its all corrupted by the wealthy and the powerful.this is corrupt government,we need laws that treat all Americans the same,from the homeless old woman,to Donald Trump.
President Obama promised that American taxpayers will never again bear the brunt of a financial sector crash at the hands of bankers making risky trades. But if we look at the sheer statistics behind the number of criminal prosecutions for financial institution fraud, you'll notice a shocking trend. Data released by the US Justice Department shows that over the past 20 years, the number of federal prosecutions for financial fraud has gone down significantly. RT's Meghan Lopez spoke to Kevin Whelan, campaign director for the Home Defenders League, for more

Cyprus: The Next stage in Euro Crisis
Cypriots have been on the streets demanding their money back ever since the government took the incredible decision to take money out of the savings of its people, without asking them.
"It's worse than a war. At least in a war you know who your enemies are" a Cypriot said.
The government has since reversed its decision but the crisis has just begun. Who are the Cypriots enemies? Many say Germany and many say the EU.
On this week's INFocus, we travel to Cyprus to document the next chapter in the European economic crisis. First it was Greece, Portugal, Spain and Ireland, now it is Cyprus.
Ron Paul : The IRS Job Is To Violate Our Liberties
Ron Paul's Texas Straight Talk 5/20/13: The IRS's Job Is To Violate Our Liberties
The IRS's Job Is To Violate Our Liberties
by Ron Paul
"What do you expect when you target the President?" This is what an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agent allegedly said to the head of a conservative organization that was being audited after calling for the impeachment of then-President Clinton. Recent revelations that IRS agents gave "special scrutiny" to organizations opposed to the current administration's policies suggest that many in the IRS still believe harassing the President's opponents is part of their job.
As troubling as these recent reports are, it would be a grave mistake to think that IRS harassment of opponents of the incumbent President is a modern, or a partisan, phenomenon. As scholar Burton Folsom pointed out in his book New Deal or Raw Deal, IRS agents in the 1930s where essentially "hit squads" against opponents of the New Deal. It is well-known that the administrations of John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson used the IRS to silence their critics. One of the articles of impeachment drawn up against Richard Nixon dealt with his use of the IRS to harass his political enemies. Allegations of IRS abuses were common during the Clinton administration, and just this week some of the current administration's defenders recalled that antiwar and progressive groups alleged harassment by the IRS during the Bush presidency.
The bipartisan tradition of using the IRS as a tool to harass political opponents suggests that the problem is deeper than just a few "rogue" IRS agents—or even corruption within one, two, three or many administrations. Instead, the problem lays in the extraordinary power the tax system grants the IRS.
The IRS routinely obtains information about how we earn a living, what investments we make, what we spend on ourselves and our families, and even what charitable and religious organizations we support. Starting next year, the IRS will be collecting personally identifiable health insurance information in order to ensure we are complying with Obamacare's mandates.
The current tax laws even give the IRS power to marginalize any educational, political, or even religious organizations whose goals, beliefs, and values are not favored by the current regime by denying those organizations "tax-free" status. This is the root of the latest scandal involving the IRS.
Considering the type of power the IRS excises over the American people, and the propensity of those who hold power to violate liberty, it is surprising we do not hear about more cases of politically-motivated IRS harassment. As the first US Supreme Court Chief Justice John Marshall said, "The power to tax is the power to destroy" — and who better to destroy than one's political enemies?
The US flourished for over 120 years without an income tax, and our liberty and prosperity will only benefit from getting rid of the current tax system. The federal government will get along just fine without its immoral claim on the fruits of our labor, particularly if the elimination of federal income taxes are accompanied by serious reduction in all areas of spending, starting with the military spending beloved by so many who claim to be opponents of high taxes and big government.
While it is important for Congress to investigate the most recent scandal and ensure all involved are held accountable, we cannot pretend that the problem is a few bad actors. The very purpose of the IRS is to transfer wealth from one group to another while violating our liberties in the process, thus the only way Congress can protect our freedoms is to repeal the income tax and shutter the doors of the IRS once and for all.
The IRS's Job Is To Violate Our Liberties
by Ron Paul
"What do you expect when you target the President?" This is what an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agent allegedly said to the head of a conservative organization that was being audited after calling for the impeachment of then-President Clinton. Recent revelations that IRS agents gave "special scrutiny" to organizations opposed to the current administration's policies suggest that many in the IRS still believe harassing the President's opponents is part of their job.

Chossudovsky: Criminal and Complicit Mainstream Media
Michel Chossudovsky speaks in Kuala Lumpur (2012). Reflections on the criminal mainstream mass media after the 9/11 events and "covering up" as obstruction of justice.
Journalists working for corporate media have the blood of literally millions of people on their hands & must be held accountable for war crimes. In the meantime STOP paying for the propaganda.

Global Economic Meltdown 2013 - 2014
Global Economic Meltdown 2013 - 2014
Amazing how the more they print fiat, the price of silver is decreasing. Imagine if silver got down to equal par with the silver. Dollar for dollar. If there is 100 trillion dollars fo fiat in circulation and was redemmable in silver, can the above equation work if there was only 1 billion ounces worldwide? that is a ratio of 100,000 to 1. Therefore a one ounce silver coin should be worth 100,000 fiat dollars. Kind of crazy. Even if it was to hit 100,000 per ounce, the US goverment mint will still produce the silver one ounce coin with a face value of one dollar. If the government is producing the $1 silver liberty dollar, why are we not using this currency as it is stated in the constitution? We are so entrenched with fiat money being priced on every single item, people do not have the understanding on how to get out of it. Is there a plan when it collapses? Martial law, Fema camps, starvation, death, disease.

The Real IRS Scandal by Brother Nathanael
The Real IRS Scandal
When the government does wrong, they get to say sorry and everything’s OK . When YOU do wrong, you get to go to jail and pay the government. This societal acceptance of misusing the IRS perhaps stems from the conviction of Al Capone who apparently could be jailed by no other means.
So then it is a well known tale of the federalis outsmarting the bad guys by cleverly employing the IRS.
Free people can never be governed or they are by definition not free. Private property can never be taxed or it is by definition not private property. We live in the midst of traditionalized oxymorons. Much must be undone before we can successfully find our way.
With liberty AND justice for all.
