By John & Nisha Whitehead “When players are piled on top of each other after a mad scramble for a loose ball, it’s a free-for-all. There are no rules. Anything goes. That’s because there’s nobody in the pile to monitor what’s going on.” —Mike Thomas, sports editor What is playing...
By John & Nisha Whitehead There is new meaning to back-to-school in the United States today. Instead of being taught the three Rs of education (reading, writing and arithmetic), young people are being drilled in the three Is of life in the American police state: Indoctrination, intimidation, and intolerance. Indeed,...
By John & Nisha Whitehead “There is more than one way to burn a book. And the world is full of people running about with lit matches.” —Ray Bradbury What we are witnessing is the modern-day equivalent of book-burning which involves doing away with dangerous ideas—legitimate or not—and those who...
By John & Nisha Whitehead There’s a meme that circulated on social media a while back that perfectly sums up the polarized, manipulated mayhem, madness and tyranny that is life in the American police state today: “If you catch 100 red fire ants as well as 100 large black ants,...
By John & Nisha Whitehead Get ready for the next phase of the government’s war on thought crimes: Mental health round-ups and involuntary detentions. Under the guise of public health and safety, the government could use mental health care as a pretext for targeting and locking up dissidents, activists and...
By John & Nisha Whitehead We’re all being targeted now. We’re all guilty until proven innocent now. Thanks to the 24/7 surveillance being carried out by the government’s spy network of fusion centers, we are all sitting ducks, just waiting to be tagged, flagged, targeted, monitored, manipulated, investigated, interrogated, heckled...
By John & Nisha Whitehead How many Americans actually have bothered to read the Constitution, let alone the first 10 amendments to the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights (a quick read at 462 words)? Take a few minutes and read those words for yourself, rather than having some court...
By John & Nisha Whitehead The government is goosestepping all over our freedoms. Case in point: America’s founders did not want a military government ruled by force. Rather, they opted for a republic bound by the rule of law: The U.S. Constitution. Yet, over the course of the past 240-plus...
By John & Nisha Whitehead We’re not dealing with a government that exists to serve its people, protect their liberties and ensure their happiness. Rather, we are the unfortunate victims of the diabolical machinations of a make-works program carried out on an epic scale whose only purpose is to keep...
By John & Nisha Whitehead And so it continues. This entire fiasco, indicting Donald Trump for allegedly violating both the Espionage Act and obstructing justice by improperly handling classified records, is merely the latest in a never-ending series of distractions, distortions, and political theater, aimed at diverting the public’s attention
By John & Nisha Whitehead We have become a nation in a permanent state of emergency. Power-hungry and lawless, the government has weaponized one national crisis after another in order to expand its powers and justify all manner of government tyranny in the so-called name of national security. COVID-19, for...
By John & Nisha Whitehead Let’s be clear about one thing: Seditious conspiracy isn’t a real crime to anyone, but to the U.S. government. To be convicted of seditious conspiracy, the charge levied against Stewart Rhodes who was sentenced to 18 years in prison for being the driving force behind...
By John & Nisha Whitehead Power corrupts, we know. In fact, we know it from experience learned the hard way at the hands of our own government. So, why is anyone surprised to learn that the FBI, one of the most power-hungry and corrupt agencies within the police state’s vast...
By John & Nisha Whitehead Once again, the police state is up to its old tricks, stoking tensions over whether or not the government is forced to shut down, even partially, due to a default on the national debt. Yet while these political games dominate news headlines, send the stock...
By John & Nisha Whitehead How far would you really go to secure the Nation’s borders in the so-called name of national security? Would you give the government limitless amounts of money? Surround the entire country with concrete walls and barbed wire? Erect a high-tech, virtual wall of AI-powered surveillance...
By John & Nisha Whitehead What does it say about the state of our freedoms that there are now more pencil-pushing, bureaucratic (non-military) government agents armed with weapons than U.S. Marines? Among the agencies being supplied with night-vision equipment, body armor, hollow-point bullets, shotguns, drones, assault rifles, and LP gas...
By John & Nisha Whitehead Absolutely, there is a war on free speech. To be more accurate, however, the war on free speech is really a war on the right to criticize the government. Although the right to speak out against government wrongdoing is the quintessential freedom, every day in...
By John & Nisha Whitehead What the police state wants is a silent, compliant, oblivious, citizenry. What the First Amendment affirms is an engaged citizenry that speaks truth to power using whatever peaceful means are available to us. Speaking one’s truth doesn’t have to be the same for each person,...
By John & Nisha Whitehead We’re not living the American dream. We’re living a financial nightmare. The U.S. government is funding its existence with a credit card. The government, and that includes the current administration, is spending money it doesn’t have on programs it can’t afford, and “we the taxpayers”...
By John & Nisha Whitehead Let’s talk about fake news stories, shall we? There’s the garden variety fake news that is not really news so much as it is titillating, tabloid-worthy material peddled by anyone with a Twitter account, a Facebook page and an active imagination. These stories run the...
