Communist Terror Coming for You
Within a year of seizing power in Russia in 1917, the Bolsheviks, Lenin established the Cheka, the "political police" of the new communist government. The Cheka was in charge of administering The Red Terror--the unbelievably brutal policy of state-sanctioned murder--terror as a policy goal--by which tens of millions of innocent Russians lost their lives. Here are a baker's dozen verifiable facts to give you an idea of what it was like in Russia while the Bolsheviks held power:
Woodrow Wilson downplayed the 1918 flu pandemic. Then, he got violently sick.
Even a U.S. president couldn't avoid a pandemic that swept the world and infected millions.
The year: 1919. The president: Woodrow Wilson.
The disease dubbed "The Spanish flu" emerged in 1918 during the last months of World War I.
Initially, the Wilson administration tried to play down the disease even as it spread worldwide.
When Bill Kristol Heard the Vince Foster Witness Story
The headquarters of the conservative Heritage Foundation is located on the edge of Capitol Hill a block east of Union Station. I have attended quite a few functions there in their main auditorium to hear interesting speakers. They serve refreshments in a little anteroom where one can socialize with other attendees, often including the guest speaker. In this instance in the first week of March 1996, the speaker was the influential editor of the conservative Weekly Standard, William Kristol. I don't recall his topic. I had been working with Patrick Knowlton, the key witness in the matter of the July 20, 1993, mysterious death of Vincent Foster, the deputy White House counsel in president Bill Clinton's administration, and with Knowlton's lawyer, John Clarke. At the after-speech refreshments, I sidled over to Kristol and told him that I'd like to talk to him about Patrick Knowlton.
Coronavirus Is Not the First Mass Killing by Dr. Fauci — How Many Tens of Thousands of Americans Must Die Before Dr. Fauci Loses His Job?
By: Ethan Allen and...
Dr. Risch described how Dr. Fauci allowed at least 17,000 AIDS victims to die by not certifying an effective drug for treatment back in the 1980s.
Angela Davis vs. O.J. Simpson
Angela Davis and O.J. Simpson are two of the most famous people in America to have been tried for murder and acquitted.
Here's a question: 50 years after Judge Harold Haley had his head blown off by a shotgun purchased by Dr. Angela Davis two days before, is there even a theory explaining how Davis could not have committed felony murder?
Of course, in the opinion of the jury, the prosecution failed to prove Davis was involved in murder beyond a reasonable doubt, just as the jury felt that the prosecution failed to prove Simpson was a murderer beyond a reasonable doubt.
But … I at least hear clever theories excusing OJ from his supporters, but not from Angela Davis's many fans, who tend to be better placed in the media.
Will A Military Coup Undo The November Elections, Donald Trump, & The Republic Itself?
Authored by Matthew Ehret via The Strategic Culture Foundation,
On March 20, I published an article called Why Assume There will be a 2020 Election? where I laid out the existential threat of a new Wall Street military Coup which would not only render elections obsolete, but would impose a new fascist hell onto America and the world.
In that article I discussed the importance of General Smedley Butler's strategic decision to expose the Wall Street plot to overthrow the newly elected president Franklin Roosevelt who was in the midst of waging a war on both Wall Street, the City of London and the chaos these financiers engineered during the great depression. Butler's congressional testimony put the spotlight on these shadow creatures and gave FDR the breathing space and public supported needed to wage war on America's deep state while pushing a bold healing of the nation under the New Deal.
I would love to say that this would be impossible in this country, but as a history buff, I cannot say that, at this moment in our country's history, with any confident degree of certainty.
The CIA Has Never Worked for the American People
Historically, the U.S. never had an official permanent civilian central intelligence agency. The functions of intelligence and espionage were carried out by the State Department, the different branches of the armed forces, particularly the Navy, and the FBI. This explains why, after the end of WWII, Truman disbanded the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) in charge of intelligence and refused to hear its chief, General Bill Donovan, arguments favoring the creation of a central intelligence agency. It contributed to his decision the fact that rumors that Donovan was trying to create an American Gestapo had been leaked to the press, most likely by FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover.
FLASHBACK - Latvia: Year of Horror, 1940 – The Year Assimilated Jews Turned on Their Neighbours
Latvia: Year of Horror. is an highly illustrated, chronological eyewitness and documented account of the suffering the Latvian people endured at the hands of the Jewish-Bolshevik invaders and, the assimilated Latvian-Jews, who, in the summer of 1940, began a slaughterous oppression with the arrival of the Jewish Red Army.
Flashback: Why The WHO Faked A Pandemic
The World Health Organization has suddenly gone from crying "The sky is falling!" like a cackling Chicken Little to squealing like a stuck pig. The reason: charges that the agency deliberately fomented swine flu hysteria. "The world is going through a real pandemic. The description of it as a fake is wrong and irresponsible," the agency claims on its Web site. A WHO spokesman declined to specify who or what gave this "description," but the primary accuser is hard to ignore.
The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE), a human rights watchdog, is publicly investigating the WHO's motives in declaring a pandemic. Indeed, the chairman of its influential health committee, epidemiologist Wolfgang Wodarg, has declared that the "false pandemic" is "one of the greatest medicine scandals of the century."

When Charlie Chaplin Was Banned From America For Communist Rumors
British-born Charlie Chaplin was one of America's best-loved silent film stars and one of the few who made a smooth transition into "talkies." He enjoyed a prolific career in Hollywood well into the '50s until the Red Scare got Charlie Chaplin banned from America.
When The C.I.A. Is Formed In 1947 (Established By President Truman)
The C.I.A. has long loomed large in the minds of tinfoil hat–wearers and fans of police procedurals alike, but its formation was born out of the need for oversight. Following World War II, the U.S. government was desperate to prevent another Pearl Harbor, which would require a new agency that could gather information on threats to national security and keep it all in one place. A central intelligence agency, if you will. At the time, President Truman was iffy on the creation of a new agency, but at the onset of the Cold War, he changed his mind and brought the C.I.A. to life.
COUP 53 SHEDS NEW LIGHT ON HOW CIA AND MI6 BROUGHT TYRANNY TO IRAN
Trailer for COUP 53, a new documentary on the joint CIA-MI6 operation to overthrow the democratically elected government of Iran. The coup that toppled a democratically elected government in Iran in August 1953 and replaced it with a tyrannical monarchy that lasted 25 years was an intelligence operations whose effects are still felt to this day.

Erasing History and Erasing Truth: Censorship and Destroying Records Is the Cornerstone of Tyrants
Tyranny requires that the truth be silenced, that real history be erased and rewritten, that speech be restricted, and that individual thought be silenced. In this time of constant turmoil, false flags, wars, civil unrest, and now internal bio-terrorism and manufactured pandemics, a major agenda of the state apparatus is to silence all dissent, and mandate conformity. It is imperative considering the state's plan for total control that it stifle criticism and retain the power to control the mainstream narrative, while aggressively eliminating all other resistance and questioning. This is the state of the world that we live in today. As things continue to deteriorate, nonconformance cannot be allowed if global governance and a global reset are to be successful.
As of 2018, the Late Ruth Bader Ginsburg Had Hired Only One Black Clerk in 38 Years on the Bench
One of the impressive things about the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was her lack of Wokeness by 2020 standards. For example, she refused to saddle herself with an affirmative action law clerk. As a Supreme Court justice from 1993-2020, she had 119 clerks. In 2018, the Washington Post reported that only one had been black. Before her elevation to the Supreme Court, she had no black law clerks during her 13 years as a judge on the prestigious D.C. Circuit of the US Court of Appeals.

The Library of Alexandria is on Fire - corbettreport
SHOW NOTES AND MP3: https://www.corbettreport.com/?p=37562
We all know the story of the Library of Alexandria, the vast repository of ancient texts that was burnt to the ground by Caesar in 48 B.C. While the story itself isn't accurate, it speaks to us today as we face the digital book burnings that are threatening the modern-day Library of Alexandria: the internet. In this speech delivered at the AE911Truth Justice Rising conference on September 13, 2020, James Corbett connects the dots from that ancient story to the internet censorship of today, and outlines what we can do to fight the fire that is threatening our most important information.
14 Presidents Before George Washington? These Figures Predate Office as We Know It
It could be said that 14 men served as president of the United States before George Washington, and although they led the Continental Congress, they were unquestionably among the leaders who shaped the country.
Washington was sworn into the office of U.S. President as we know it in 1789. But the historical figures who occupied the office of president of the Continental Congress, later called the Confederation Congress, led the first organized government of what is now the United States, Free Republic contends.
Benghazi: The Forgotten "September 11th" Attack On The US Consulate In Libya
If you say "September 11" most people automatically think of the attacks on the World Trade Center buildings and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001. What they probably don't even remember happened on September 11, were the attacks on the United States Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, in 2012.
Once the Libyan Revolution began in February 2011, the CIA began placing assets in the region, attempting to make contacts within the region. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, whose name and image would soon become synonymous with the Benghazi attacks, was the first liaison between the United States and the rebels. The task before the American intelligence community at that time was securing arms in the country, most notably shoulder-fired missiles, taken from the Libyan military.
The First Draft: FDR Signs Selective Training And Service Act
Conscription, or the draft, is something that every young man in America thinks about when they turn 17. In order to do anything—get a driver's license, vote, or just move freely throughout the states without a hassle—you've got to sign up for the draft, whether we're at war or not. This hasn't always been the case: For most of the country's young life, Americans have only had to sign up for the draft when there's an actual war on, but in 1940, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Selective Training and Service Act, creating the first draft in the United States.

Birmingham Church Bombing: The 16th Street Baptist Church Killings Of Four Black Children
On Sunday, September 15, 1963, the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama was destroyed by members of the local chapter of the Ku Klux Klan. This deadly bombing killed four black children, injured more than 20 other parishioners, and ripped through the Civil Rights movement like a bolt of lightning. The perpetrators went unpunished for decades, but thanks to the vigilance of the FBI, three of the four members of the group who took the lives of four innocent girls were put away for good.
Black And Mexican Cowboys Made Up At Least 25% Of The American West
When you think of the Wild West, you probably think of a lonesome cowboy who maybe looks a bit like John Wayne, out on his own, fighting the elements and struggling to survive the harsh conditions and brutal lawlessness of a vast and desolate countryside. While this image isn't exactly wrong, it's only a tiny fraction of the true picture of the West, which was a much more complex and diverse place than most modern cowboy tales depict. To really understand the cowboy's place in history, we first have to separate the cowboy as the literary hero archetype from the true cowboys who played a pivotal role in shaping the future of America.
A Hacker Said He Had Proof the CIA Caused the Anthrax Attacks. They Had Him Arrested for Child Porn.
Sonia Kennebeck begins her documentary Enemies of the State with an epigraph from Oscar Wilde: "The truth is never pure and rarely simple." By the conclusion of Kennebeck's film, which premiered this week at the Toronto International Film Festival, the convoluted series of events she recounts reveal that nothing is straightforward about the case her documentary dissects—the strange saga of Matt DeHart, a man hailed by his supporters as a whistleblower and denounced by his detractors as a sex predator. Instead of assuaging the audience's curiosity and providing a clear-cut resolution to this murky scenario, Kennebeck, whether courageously or perversely, leaves her viewers hanging. Perhaps the opaque nature of the DeHart controversy, replete with unyielding positions from partisans on both sides, leaves her no choice.

Released in 1985, Super Mario Bros. began as the last gasp of the cartridge era for Nintendo and became the game by which everything that followed was measured. Mario has had three decades of monumental success, with a movie, a few cartoons, and of course, a myriad sequels that have kept players glued to their consoles. How this simple 2-D platformer came to life and inspired pretty much every game for the next 35 years is the story of a small group of creatives who poured all of their talent into 31 kilobytes of data while turning glitches and limitations into part of the gameplay.
Never Forget: Smoking Gun Intel Memo From 1990s Warned Of 'Frankenstein The CIA Created'
As Americans pause to remember the tragic events of September 11, 2001 which saw almost 3,000 innocents killed in the worst terror attack in United States history, it might also be worth contemplating the horrific wars and foreign quagmires unleashed during the subsequent 'war on terror'.
Bush's so-called Global War on Terror targeted 'rogue states' like Saddam's Iraq, but also consistently had a focus on uprooting and destroying al-Qaeda and other armed Islamist terror organizations (this led to the falsehood that Baathist Saddam and AQ were in cahoots). But the idea that Washington from the start saw al-Qaeda and its affiliates as some kind of eternal enemy is largely a myth.

Porvenir Massacre Of 1918: A Harrowing Night Of Racial Murder By Local Texans, US Military
On January 28, 1918, a group of Texas Rangers, U.S. Cavalry soldiers, and local ranchers descended on the village of Porvenir in Presidio County, Texas to avenge a series of cattle raids along the Mexico-Texas border. Under the cover of night, this band of armed vigilantes marched residents out of their homes before murdering 15 unarmed Mexican men and boys with no proof that anyone from Porvenir had anything to do with the crimes.
The Roots of America's Disastrous Overseas Failures: Hubris as Foreign Policy Goes Back More Than a Century
No doubt Bull Halsey thought little of Perry's actual mission or its consequences when he ordered that Perry's flag be transported half-way around the world to celebrate what was America's second victory over Japan. Yet the very war that was concluding would not have occurred had Perry's expedition never be sent. The flag represented the unmitigated, counterproductive, even disastrous hubris that dominates American foreign policy today.
Vanderbilt Quiz On Constitution Marked Students Wrong Who Said It Was Not Designed To Perpetuate White Supremacy
A conservative student organization has flagged a quiz at Vanderbilt University where students were asked "Was the Constitution designed to perpetuate white supremacy and protect the institution of slavery?" A student who answered "false" was marked wrong by the professor. The class is taught by Professors Josh Clinton, Eunji Kim, Jon Meacham, and Dean John Geer entitled PSCI 1150: U. S. ELECTIONS 2020.
Meacham is a regular guest on MSNBC and CNN and other networks as well as a contributing editor for The New York Times Book Review.
The question posed to students is shown below:
"Was the Constitution designed to perpetuate white supremacy and protect the institutional of slavery?
The faculty would only accept "true" as the answer.

Piggly Wiggly: The First Supermarket That Let You Pick Out Your Own Food
Going to the grocery store in the early 1900s was nothing like what it is today. Instead of rolling in with a cart and grabbing things off the shelves to the strains of the in-store audio system's tasteful muzak, customers handed their shopping lists to a clerk who would collect the groceries for them. This kind of "full-service" shop was perfect for preventing theft and a premium customer experience, but it was an expensive way to do business.
Los Pobladores: The 44 Mexican-Indigenous People Who Founded Los Angeles In 1781
Los Angeles is a city of constant reinvention. There's the past that the city remembers and the past that the city rewrites until the real story is forgotten. One such part of that past is the actual founding of Los Angeles by a group of Mexican and Indigenous people known as Los Pobladores, a collection of 44 settlers who came to to Los Angeles in 1781. The group was a racially diverse collection of men and women who built a pueblo community that expanded across the city as we know it today, and without their bravery and commitment, who knows if Los Angeles would even be on the map today?
Sleeping Beauty Syndrome And How It Takes Over Your Life
Just like Princess Aurora in the Sleeping Beauty fairy tale or Rip Van Winkle in the Washington Irving short story, some people have a medical condition that causes them to sleep for extended periods of time, much longer than the typical teenager on summer break. For the rare few who suffer from Sleeping Beauty syndrome, the common name for Kleine-Levin syndrome or KLS, the condition is more like a nightmare than a fairy tale. The prolonged sleep interferes with their school, work, social life, and relationships, leaving them almost totally dependent on others.
AMERICA: FREEDOM TO FASCISM - Aaron Russo
Viewing for the Labor Day weekend:
The true enemies of liberty and all modern societies and people are the central bank counterfeiters. The largest counterfeiter in the history of the world consists of the Federal Reserve banking scheme, which counterfeits American dollars through fiat currency and fractional reserve banking.
America Freedom to Fascism exposes the fraud and deceit of the Federal Reserve Banks (Fed), the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the 16th Amendment, the income tax, the Federal Reserve System, national ID cards (REAL ID Act), human-implanted RFID tags (Spychips), Diebold electronic voting machines, New World Order (globalization), Big Brother, taser weapons abuse, and the use of terrorism by government as a means to diminish the citizens' rights.

23 Years Later: The Oklahoma City Bombing Story You Were Never Told About
Terry was a few blocks away from Timothy McVeigh and the now infamous Ryder truck-which was brimming with explosives-when it detonated and erased the lives of 168 people, including 19 children. Yeakey rushed to the blast site, and without regard for his own life, began pulling people from the rubble one by one.
Instead of being showered with accolades by his government for his heroic efforts, Terrance was silenced for what he witnessed in the direct aftermath of one of largest mass murders that the United States has ever seen.
No one is quite sure what Terry actually observed at the Murrah building that April morning, but according to all indications, whatever it was he witnessed did not sync up with the official narrative released by the United States government.

The First African-American to Hold a Patent Invented 'Dry Scouring'
The next time you pick up your clothes at the dry cleaner, send a thank you to the memory of Thomas Jennings. Jennings invented a process called 'dry scouring,' a forerunner of modern dry cleaning. He patented the process in 1821, making him likely the first black person in America to receive a patent.
America's always had black inventors – even when the patent system explicitly excluded them
America has long been the land of innovation. More than 13,000 years ago, the Clovis people created what many call the "first American invention" – a stone tool used primarily to hunt large game. This spirit of American creativity has persisted through the millennia, through the first American patent granted in 1641 and on to today.
One group of prolific innovators, however, has been largely ignored by history: black inventors born or forced into American slavery. Though U.S. patent law was created with color-blind language to foster innovation, the patent system consistently excluded these inventors from recognition.
As a law professor and a licensed patent attorney, I understand both the importance of protecting inventions and the negative impact of being unable to use the law to do so. But despite patents being largely out of reach to them throughout early U.S. history, both slaves and free African-Americans did invent and innovate.
8 Black Inventors Who Made Daily Life Easier
Most people have heard about famous inventions like the light bulb, the cotton gin and the iPhone. But there are countless other, often overlooked inventions that make our daily lives easier. Among the creative innovators behind these devices are African-American inventors. From the traffic light to the ironing board, see a list of products that have sprung from the minds of black inventors.
INVENTIONS MADE BY BLACK SLAVES DENIED PATENTS
Shontavia Johnson, a lawyer and professor of Intellectual Property Law at Drake University, wrote an eye-opening piece on the history of African American slaves being denied (or having outright stolen), patents for their inventions.
Johnson writes, "One group of prolific innovators, however, has been largely ignored by history: black inventors born or forced into American slavery. Though U.S. patent law was created with color-blind language to foster innovation, the patent system consistently excluded these inventors from recognition."
She explains that the patent system–which started officially in 1787–was not open to African Americans born into slavery as they weren't considered citizens.
That barrier didn't stop African Americans from inventing and their patents from being exploited. According to Johnson's research, owners often took credit for slave inventions.
Here are a few examples of African American inventions during the time of slavery that Johnson cites:
14 Black Inventors You Probably Didn't Know About
Many people have read the story of how George Washington Carver invented peanut butter. Others are familiar with the story of Sarah Breedlove, aka Madam C. J. Walker, the inventor of beauty products and the first woman to become a self-made millionaire in America. And thanks to the Academy Award nominated film, Hidden Figures, we're now all familiar with the amazing contributions of Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson.
But, did you know that many of the products we use every day were created by black people? Here's a list of 14 of them that, until now, you probably didn't know about.
Why the state seeks to abolish both tradition and history
Today our society is wracked by germinal totalitarians eager to destroy history. Ostensibly this is in the name of justice, but this destruction and historical desecration are little more than a tactic for securing power for themselves. America is supposedly infected on the genetic level with unforgivable sins of racism and oppression and those seeking to destroy history conveniently have the solution: hand over power to them to facilitate our collective reeducation and penance. By failing to recognize the important role that tradition serves by preserving historical consciousness we aid and abet the rise of the forces currently seeking the complete overthrow of our society and the complete annihilation of our traditional rights and liberties.
What Happened To Aaron Burr After He Shot Alexander Hamilton?
Even if you haven't seen the smash Broadway musical Hamilton, you probably know that Alexander Hamilton, one of America's founding fathers and the first secretary of the treasury, was killed in a duel by then–Vice President Aaron Burr, back when it wasn't uncommon for gentlemen to settle their differences with pistols. We know what happened to Hamilton after the duel, but what about Burr? How did the duel impact his life and his political career?
Kamala Harris' ancestors owned slaves
Though the "fact-checkers" are already decrying it as "fake news," evidence continues to pour in showing that vice presidential hopeful Kamala Harris, who is not actually black, is directly descended from one of the most notorious slave owners in Jamaican history.
Hamilton Brown, a relative of Kamala, owned so many slaves in Jamaica that there is actually a town there known as "Brown Town" that was named directly after him. Snopes says this is false, of course, but the proof is there for those who care about facts over politics.
Brown is on record as having recruited large numbers of Irish migrants to come to Jamaica to work on his massive sugar plantations after the British empire abolished slavery. And Kamala's own father, Donald J. Harris, admitted in a piece for Jamaica Global Online entitled, "Reflections of a Jamaican Father," that his family was very involved in the Jamaican slave trade.
California To Set Up Task Force To Examine Slavery Reparations
Authored by Rick Moran via PJMedia.com,
The California Assembly will vote before Monday on a state Senate bill that creates a task force to look at the question of slavery reparations. The measure passed the state Senate in a bipartisan vote.
This is a surprise. California was a free state when it entered the Union in 1850 as a result of the Compromise of 1850. But now we're told there was "chattel slavery" in California.
Well… sorta.
Although California before the Civil War was officially a free state, Mitchell listed legal and judicial steps state officials took at the time to support slavery in Southern states while repressing Blacks.
But what about the fact that white people alive today had nothing to do with slavery?
That last question is a large one to me.
And then there is the question of how these reparations will be dispersed; will it simply be a check, written by the State of California, to individuals, or will it be part of a multi-disciplinary program, offering educational, literacy programs, computer literacy programs, counseling to change life-style issues which may be holding people back?!?
The second approach makes more sense to me, but will that wind up making Black Californians more angry?!? I can't tell you, but there is one thing the state of California will not do; that would be tracking how the reparations money will be spent.

Watch Joe Biden Slam 'Fatherless Predators' While Promoting 1994 Crime Bill That Targeted Blacks
The former Vice President, who insisted in May that African Americans 'ain't black' if they don't vote for him, suggested last year that 'poor kids are just as smart as white kids,' and worried in 1977 that desegregation would force his children to grow up in a 'racial jungle' - went on a tirade against minorities in 1993 while sponsoring the Democrats' 1994 crime bill, which supercharged the mass incarceration of people of color.
There's also that clip of Biden speaking fondly of his work with segregationists which his running mate Kamala Harris slammed him for during the primary debates (and later dismissed as nothing more than politics).
I love the smells of irony and hypocrisy in the morning!!
The Attempt To Overthrow America
Authored by Guy Millière via The Gatestone Institute.
Already in 2017, former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich had worried about the sporadic riots that were breaking out, for instance, when conservative speakers were invited to speak. The United States, he said , "is in the throes of a one-sided cultural civil war.... Surrender or fight – our country is at stake."
The situation, in fact, had become "worrying" even before the results of the 2016 presidential election were known.
As we now can read in the report by Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz, the senior levels of government during the Obama Administration were colluding to prevent President Trump from winning the election, and then, after it, to frame him in an attempted coup d'état.
IF this country yields to "mobocracy", and the rule of law no longer exists, we can expect to see an economic and social breakdown in this country the likes of which will dwarf the effects of the Great Depression in the 30s.
Sweden's Conservatives Warn Surging Violent Crime Has Become A "Second Pandemic"
As the shooting of a man in Portland last night intensifies Americans' fears about mounting violent crime and the increasingly out of control "protest movement" spawned by the killing of George Floyd, the Financial Times has chosen to write a story about Sweden that could offer some insight into the mindset of the American "silent majority".
Now that Sweden has successfully beaten back its coronavirus outbreak, politicians in the country are pivoting to focus on a new issue that has emerged in the aftermath of the economic destruction wrought by the global outbreak. Even though Sweden never locked down its economy, it suffered an even larger economic contraction than its Nordic neighbors.
This, combined with years of heightened migration fueled by crises in the Middle East and Africa, has continued to fuel growth in crime across stodgy Sweden.
Looks as though Sweden's experiments in "cultural enrichment" are working just splendidly (if one loves mayhem, looting, burning businesses, and chaos, that is).
Robert Johnson: The Most Important Bluesman Of All Time Who 'Sold His Soul To The Devil'
Robert Johnson is easily the most important blues artist of all time. The influence of his simple guitar lines and somber howl can still be heard in music today, but separating Johnson's life from the myth that surrounds him isn't a simple task. Leaving us at the age of 27 with only 29 songs, Johnson's genius is distinctly tied to the Delta blues scene of the 1930s. It's been claimed that he sold his soul to the devil at the crossroads to gain his legendary guitar skills, but that couldn't have actually happened ... right?

The Invention Of Potato Chips In 1853 By A Half-Black, Half-Native Man Named George Crum
If there's anything people love more than sweet, sweet fried potatoes, it's getting one up on the hoity-toity. The legend of the creation of potato chips marries these two beloved concepts, as it was said that the popular snack food was invented as a sarcastic gesture toward a finicky restaurant patron. While there is evidence that potato chips were enjoyed prior to this event, the legend has prevailed.
Stalingrad: 600 Luftwaffe Planes Bomb Civilians In WWII's Deadliest Battle
There are a myriad important battles littered throughout World War II, but Stalingrad stands above them as one of the most bloody and strategically important. With more than two million casualties, it lasted nearly half a year, changed the direction of the war, and left Germany on the defensive for the first time. Thanks to nonstop Luftwaffe bombing, the city of Stalingrad was left in shambles, but the Russian forces proved that they were capable outlasting anyone in the Axis, even if they were outgunned.

Harmonic Convergence: Planets Aligning In Real-Life Started Today In 1987
Everyone sit down, close your eyes, and say "Ommmmmmmmm." In 1987, the call for the world's first synchronized global peace meditation went out, bringing people from every culture together to focus their energy as the planets aligned to facilitate a new era of peace and love. If that sounds a little woo-woo to you, then maybe it'll help to learn that the belief in aligning human frequencies with the solar system is ancient.
Ugly Laws: A 1867 San Francisco Attempt At Making Ugly People Stay Home
Can you imagine walking down the street and being stopped by a police officer for public unattractiveness? It sounds like a bad comedy sketch, but it was something that really happened at the tail end of the 19th century. "Ugly laws" got their start in San Francisco before spreading across the country to keep the cities safe for perfect 10s (and also make sure people with disabilities, homeless people, and people who weren't white stayed out of major metropolitan areas). The "ugly laws" of San Francisco and other major cities around the country are some of the, well, ugliest laws of recent history, so it's no surprise that the city wants to keep their existence under wraps.
Things You Didn't Know About The March On Washington (1963)
If there's one thing that everyone knows about the March on Washington, it's that it was the site of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech. They probably know even more—it was a watershed moment in the Civil Rights movement, some of the biggest names in hippie music performed there, it was in Washington—but it wasn't the big kumbaya moment it's presented as in the history books. Backroom deals, annoyed government officials, and bad vibes throughout the day all threatened to derail the good intentions of Dr. King. The fact that the march even happened, let alone became one of the most important moments in the Civil Rights movement, is astounding.
Doc Holiday: Stories, Trivia, And Facts You Didn't Know About The Gunslinger
The infamous shootout at the O.K. Corral has become part of our romanticized version of the Old West, where lawmen were the good guys but outlaws were the heroes of folklore. Doc Holliday has become one of those legends, but behind the slick action movies was a real-life man who led an extraordinary life at a pivotal time in American history.
1894: Two Scientists Discovered The Bacteria That Causes The Plague At The Same Time
By 1894, the bubonic plague had been, well, plaguing the globe for centuries. Scientists had been trying for just as long to figure out just what the disease was and how to stop it, but that fateful year, two of them succeeded at the same time.
The Disappearance Of Amy Lynn Bradley: Everything We Know
Amy Lynn Bradley left her family's state room on a Caribbean cruise bound for the Antilles in the early hours of March 24, 1998. Somehow, in the span of only 30 minutes and with no way to leave the ship, Bradley went missing and never turned up again. In spite of a massive search for Bradley by the ship's crew and the authorities, no one could figure out how she got off the ship without anyone seeing her. In the time since her disappearance, Bradley sightings have popped up all around the Caribbean, but her disappearance is still under investigation.
The Devil's Footprint: A German Cathedral's 600-Year-Old Deal With Satan
Inside a massive Gothic church in Germany, you can literally walk in the footsteps of the devil. The huge, 600-year-old church, called Frauenkirche or the Church of Our Lady, has a long and storied history as well as one truly unique feature: an image of the devil's own footprint. Supposedly, anyway.
Herschel Grynszpan: The Man Who Got Revenge On The Nazis, Sparking World War II
When it comes to one single act affecting the entire world for generations to come, people often cite the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the bizarrely implausible incident that kicked off a chain of events that led to World War I. But did you know that some historians claim another assassination was equally responsible for a potentially even more significant war? Unlike the Ferdinand case, there's no massive conspiracy involving a shady organization like the Black Hand. It's simply the tale of a moody teenager who just decided one day that enough was enough.
Napoleon's Last Days: How The Exiled French Emperor Spent His Death
As a military leader, Napoleon Bonaparte was unmatched, and as a ruler, he was one of the most feared men on the planet—but you don't get that reputation by being nice. Napoleon burned bridges throughout Europe, and by the time he was on his second round of leading France, he had few friends in the government.
The History Of Kissing: Why Do We Kiss Each Other And Where Did It Come From?
From a long, passionate kiss to a peck on the cheek to a smooch goodbye, kissing is a key component of our culture and an important ingredient in our relationships. But when did humans first start locking lips, and why? Not all cultures in history practiced kissing, so it seems like it must be something more than instinctual. Whatever the case, the history of kissing goes back much further than our modern notions of love and manners.

Towards a US-China War? The Creation of a Global Totalitarian System, A "One World Government"?
On behalf of the Powers That Be (PTB), World War II was orchestrated by the circles of the City of London and of Wall Street to maneuver two great obstacles—Russia and Germany—to wage a war to the death against each other, in order that those Anglo-Saxon PTB could reorganize the world geopolitical chess board to their advantage. It largely succeeded, but for the small detail that after 1945, Wall Street and the Rockefeller brothers were determined that England play the junior partner to Washington. London and Washington then entered the period of their global domination known as the Cold War.

Obama State Department Official Destroyed Records At Christopher Steele's Request
In January 2017, former State Department official Jonathan Winer destroyed several years worth of reports from former UK spy Christopher Steele, at Steele's request, according to the Daily Caller, citing a report released Tuesday.
Winer, a former legislative assistant to former Sen. John Kerry who became the State Department's Special Envoy for Libya when Kerry was Secretary of State - was Steele's contact at the State Department, and received the now-debunked reports claiming that President Trump had been compromised by the Russians.
According to the Senate report, Winer disclosed that he destroyed reports that Steele had sent him over the years. The Senate report also says that Winer failed to reveal when asked in his first interview with the committee that he had arranged the meeting for Steele at the State Department months earlier. -Daily Caller.

This Is Why 675,000 AT&T Employees Went On Strike In 1983
On August 7, 1983, phone service across the country was interrupted when 675,000 workers at AT&T went on strike following a breakdown in communication with their employer. The strike came at a crucial moment for the phone company: They were in the middle of being split up into 22 local operating companies, a task that had to be finished by January 1. The 21-day walkout of hundreds of thousands of employees—encompassing repair techs, switchboard operators, secretaries, file clerks, data processors, and more—could have been the straw that ended the monolithic corporation. The employees returned after their unions settled with AT&T, but it wouldn't be the last strike for this phone company.
1965: Voting Rights Act Is Signed By Lyndon B. Johnson
The Civil Rights movement was alive and kicking long before Lyndon B. Johnson was sworn in following John F. Kennedy's assassination in 1963 and freely elected the following year, but it was Johnson who signed the 1965 Voting Rights Act. The act, which was signed on August 6 of that year, is widely believed to be the most comprehensive Civil Rights law in United States history.
10 Ways the Communist Manifesto Has Infiltrated the USA
In America, the goals of the communists have crept their way into society with little fanfare. Many people have no idea that public schools, the graduated income tax, and even a central state-controlled bank (like the Federal Reserve) were tenets of the Communist Manifesto.
BOMBSHELL: Kamala Harris covered up sex abuse crimes of priests, buried records, and took cash from church officials
In his book Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by America's Progressive Elite, Peter Schweizer explains how Kamala failed to prosecute even one case of child sex abuse by Roman Catholic priests, despite having numerous cases thrown her way.
During the 13 years that Kamala was a district attorney, and later attorney general, she systematically covered for the big guys while betraying the little guys – though you are unlikely to hear about any of this from the mainstream media, which is worshiping Kamala almost to the degree that it worshiped Barack Obama.
While at least 50 other major cities at that time were busy prosecuting pedophile priests for molesting and raping young boys, Kamala "would strangely hide vital records on abuses that had occurred," Schweizer contends. Kamala also retaliated against a district attorney who tried to do the job that she refused to do, almost as if she herself was secretly guilty.
Kamala Harris: An Annotated Guide
Government Accountability Institute President Peter Schweizer said (On Tucker Carlson show) ""Tucker, from 2004 to 2011, she was San Francisco attorney general," he continued. "She did not prosecute a single case of sexual abuse involving Catholic Church priests. To put that in context, of the 50 largest cities in America, all 50 of them prosecuted at least one case during that time period, except for Kamala Harris. And in addition to that, she inherited, from her predecessor, Terence Hallinan, hundreds of pages of internal Catholic documents that included the names of 40 current or recent priests who had been charged by parishioners with molestation."
Kamala Harris isn't the first Black woman to run for VP. Meet Charlotta Bass.
Indeed, while Harris will indeed be the first Black woman and the first Asian American to appear on a major-party ticket, she is not the first Black woman to run for vice president. That title belongs to Bass, who joined a long-shot Progressive Party ticket in 1952, more than a decade before the Voting Rights Act was signed into law.
Before Kamala Harris became Biden's running mate, Shirley Chisholm and other Black women aimed for the White House
U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris, the American daughter of Jamaican and Indian immigrants, is Joe Biden's choice for vice president. If Biden wins in November, Harris would break three centuries-old barriers to become the nation's first female vice president, first Black vice president and first Black female vice president.
Geraldine Ferraro was the first female vice-presidential candidate on a major party ticket, in 1984. In 2008, Alaska's then-governor Sarah Palin was Republican John McCain's running mate.
Before Harris was picked as Biden's running mate, she was his competitor for the Democratic presidential nomination. She is one of many Black American women who have aimed for the highest office in the land despite great odds.
"Imagine if you will, a situation in which the economy of a nation is overdue to experience an economic collapse of epic proportions, but remains endlessly at the brink. Every day, a collapse is more likely, yet the economic house of cards remains in a state of suspended animation. Some people become increasingly edgy, while others become more complacent. Only a few choose to actually prepare for what's coming. -- An impossible situation? Yes. But we'd be well-advised to recognize that it couldn't only occur… in the Twilight Zone."
The Jakarta Method: How The U.S. Used Mass Murder To Beat Communism
Indonesia was considered especially crucial during the 1960s as one of the leading non-aligned countries with the largest communist party outside the USSR and China. U.S. officials saw it as a "prize" far more valuable than South Vietnam, and in 1965-66 it was violently yanked into the U.S. orbit by mass murder. The Indonesian military under Suharto and its auxiliaries carried out mass killings against communists and suspected communists, and they murdered up to one million innocent people for nothing more than their presumed political affiliations.
India and China: Behind the Conflict: The two most populous countries in the world are battling over a border, but it's really about energy and water.
Chinese and Indian forces have pulled back from their confrontation in the Himalayas, but the tensions that set off the deadly encounter this past June – the first on the China/India border since 1975 – are not going away. Indeed, a poisonous combination of local disputes, regional antagonisms, and colonial history could pose a serious danger to peace in South Asia.
In part, the problem is Britain's colonial legacy. The "border" in dispute is an arbitrary line drawn across terrain that doesn't lend itself to clear boundaries. The architect, Henry McMahon, drew it to maximize British control of a region that was in play during the nineteenth-century "Great Game" between England and Russia for control of Central Asia. Local concerns were irrelevant.
The treaty was signed between Tibet and Britain in 1914. Although India accepts the 550-mile McMahon Line as the border between Indian and China, the Chinese have never recognized the boundary.
Let us hope that some "Adults in the Room" of geopolitics can get tensions ratcheted down, before something truly even more ugly than what has happened this year, happens again, and from which there will be no backing down by either side.

Another Hiroshima Is Coming — Unless We Stop It Now
Today, an unprecedented campaign of propaganda is shooing us all off like rabbits. We are not meant to question the daily torrent of anti-Chinese rhetoric, which is rapidly overtaking the torrent of anti-Russia rhetoric. Anything Chinese is bad, anathema, a threat: Wuhan …. Huawei. How confusing it is when "our" most reviled leader says so.
The current phase of this campaign began not with Trump but with Barack Obama, who in 2011 flew to Australia to declare the greatest build-up of US naval forces in the Asia-Pacific region since World War Two. Suddenly, China was a "threat". This was nonsense, of course. What was threatened was America's unchallenged psychopathic view of itself as the richest, the most successful, the most "indispensable" nation.
Looking at the US setting up these "freedom of navigation" exercises in the Pacific, is right now, the military equivalent of the role of a picador in a bull fight; get the bull enraged so that it charges the matador, ultimately with deadly consequences for the bull.
I would like the people who think this would be a "great idea" to consider the following; the US government and military doesn't have the money; the manufacturing; the troop strength, or the weaponry to create a positive outcome to a war against China.
I don't really know who will win the 2020 Presidential election in this country, but I would almost bet real money on the following; that shortly after the winner takes the Oath of Office in January, there will be a coming national discussion of the return to a draft in this country, and why our weaponry seldom lives up to the hype; many times is obsolete before delivery to our military; and costs so much more than Chinese or Russian weaponry cost their respective countries.
Underage girl forced to have sex with Prince Andrew, US court document claims
The sex offender Jeffrey Epstein allegedly tried to gather incriminating material against Prince Andrew by forcing an underage girl to have sex with him, according to newly released court documents.
The papers released by a court in New York say the alleged encounter took place on the late US financier's private island in the US Virgin Islands. A document claims Epstein instructed the girl, referred to as Jane Doe #3, but known to be Virginia Roberts Giuffre, to "give the prince whatever he demanded and report back to him on the details of the sexual abuse".
Epstein allegedly sexually trafficked the girl to powerful people to "ingratiate himself with them for business, personal, political and financial gain, as well as to obtain potential blackmail information". They included "numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well-known prime minister, and other world leaders."

2020 Junior Eurovision Reviews – Ukraine
Ukraine has a lengthy history at Junior Eurovision, with a win under their belt alongside a number of Top 5 finishes. Hoping to bring Ukraine back to the Top 5 this year is Oleksandr Balabanov with his song Vidkryvai which was selected through an online national final.
Song + Vocals
Last year, Ukraine was represented by Sophia Ivanko and her entry, The Spirit of Music, a unique song unlike any of the previous Ukrainian entries. Despite placing fairly low on the results table (unjustified, if you ask me), it was good to see Ukraine step outside the box and send something alternative to Junior Eurovision. This year, the nation is in a similar boat with Oleksandr and his entry, Vidkryvai. This entry is not at all what you would expect to hear at Junior Eurovision – but is that a positive or negative?
Considering Junior Eurovision is directed towards a younger demographic, I don't know that Vidkryvai will really appeal to that age group. This is not a formulaic song, and while it does have a nice melody, it's not exactly boasting the same earworm abilities as other entries this year, such as Spain or France.
As someone outside of that demographic, I actually really enjoy this song. The jazz undertones in the backing music provide an interesting contrast with his vocals, but as a package, it all works. I enjoy the fact that you can listen to this song, and not know where it's going next. The pauses throughout the song really keep you on edge, waiting for what's on the other side.
We've heard Oleksandr perform this live in his national final video, and he is a very strong vocalist. He hits every note with confidence, and that makes me eager to see the full performance on the Junior Eurovision stage.
Act + Performance
I really enjoyed the stage show from Ukraine's performance last year, and I hope they can deliver something equal in quality. Looking back at the national final performance, while it wasn't a professionally produced music video, there are aspects that could actually work really well on the Junior Eurovision stage. I like how they used mirrors to change the perspective, where you think the camera is pointing directly as Oleksandr, but rather it's a mirror shot. Imagine that on a bigger scale – I think that would look so great on camera at Junior Eurovision!
I think this song is probably too niche for Junior Eurovision as was last year's entry from Ukraine, but nonetheless it's actually one of my favourite songs of this year's competition. It could definitely surprise and reach the top end of the table, but it's one of those entries where it's hard to predict right up until the votes come in.
If you support Ukraine at Junior Eurovision this year, vote in our Poll here.

A Politician Dies And Has To Spend Just ONE Day In Hell
A politician dies and ends up standing in front of the pearly gates. Saint Peter looks at him for a second, flicks through his book, and finds his name.
"So, you're a politician…"
"Well, yes, is that a problem?"
"Oh no, no problem. But we've recently adopted a new system for people in your line of work, and unfortunately you will have to spend a day in Hell. After that however, you're free to choose where you want to spend eternity!"
"Wait, I have to spend a day in Hell?!" says the politician. "Those are the rules," replies St Peter, clicks his fingers, and WOOMPH, the guy disappears. He awakes, curled up with his hands over his eyes, knowing he's in Hell. Cautiously, he listens for the screams, sniffs the air for brimstone, and finds… Nothing. Just the smell of, is that fabric softener? And cut grass, this can't be right?
"Open your eyes!" says a voice. "C'mon, wakey wakey, we've only got 24 hours!" Nervously, he uncovers his eyes, looks around, and sees he's in a hotel room. A nice one too. Wait, this is a penthouse suite… And there's a smiling man in a suit, holding a martini. "Who are you??" The politician asks.
"Well, I'm Satan!" says the man, handing him the drink and helping him to his feet. "Welcome to Hell!"
"Wait, this is Hell? But… Where's all the pain and suffering?" he asks.
Satan throws him a wink. "Oh, we've been a bit misrepresented over the years, it's a long story. Anyway, this is your room! The minibar is of course free, as is the room service, there's extra towels next to the hot-tub, and if you need anything, just call reception. But enough of this! It's a beautiful day, and if you'd care to look outside…"
Slightly stunned by the opulent surroundings, the man wanders over to the floor-to-ceiling windows through which the sun is glowing, looks far down, and sees a group of people cheering and waving at him from a golf course.
"It's one of 5 pro-level courses on site, and there's another 6 just a few minutes drive out past the beach and harbour!" says Satan, answering his unasked question.
So they head down in the lift, walk out through the glittering lobby where everyone waves and welcomes the man, as Satan signs autographs and cheerily talks shop with the laughing staff. And as he walks out, he sees the group on the golf course are made up of every one of his old friends, people he's admired for years but never met or worked with, and people whose work he's admired but died long before his career started. And out of the middle of this group walks his wife, with a massive smile and the body she had when she was 20, who throws her arms around him and plants a delicate kiss on his cheek. Everyone cheers and applauds, and as they slap him on the back and trade jokes, his worst enemy arrives, as a 2 foot tall goblin-esque caddy. He spends the day in the bright sunshine on the course, having the time of his life laughing at jokes and carrying important discussions, putting the world to rights with his friends while holding his delighted wife next to him as she gazes lovingly at him.
Later, they return to the hotel for dinner and have an enormous meal, perfectly cooked. As everyone is falling about laughing and flinging bread sticks at each other, his wife whispers in his ear… And they return to their penthouse suite, and spend the rest of the night making love like they did on their honeymoon. After hours of passion, the man falls deep into the 100% Egyptian cotton pillows, and falls into a deep and happy sleep… and is woken up by St Peter.
"So, that was Hell. Wasn't what you were expecting, I bet?" "No sir!" says the man. "So then," says St Peter. "You can make your choice. It's Hell, which you saw, or Heaven, which has choral singing, talking to God, white robes, and so on."
"Well… I know this sounds strange, but on balance, I think I'd prefer Hell," says the politician. "Not a problem, we totally understand! Enjoy!" says St Peter, and clicks his fingers again.
The man wakes up in total darkness, the stench of ammonia filling the air and distant screams the only noise. As he adjusts, he can see the only light is from belches of flame far away, illuminating the ragged remains of people being tortured or burning in a sulphurous ocean. A sudden bolt of lightning reveals Satan next to him, wearing the same suit as before and grinning, holding a soldering iron in one hand and a coil of razor-wire in the other. "What's this??" He cries. "Where's the hotel?? Where's my wife??? Where's the minibar, the golf-courses, the pool, the restaurant, the free drinks and the sunshine???"
"Ah", says Satan. "You see, yesterday, we were campaigning. But today, you voted."
An engineer dies and goes to hell.
