Zombie School

By Tammy Derouin

Our schools have been forced into a national curriculum, controlled by the current powers that be and their cronies.  What an excellent way to change our history and our traditions.  What an excellent way to gain control of the youths by filling their minds with propaganda.  Theories in the real world become facts in Zombie School. 

Didn’t Hitler take control of the youths in Germany?  Oh yes, they were called Hitler’s Youths.  I wonder if that will be taught in Zombie School.  Surely, it will be include in the chapter where Hitler also took control of the press, confiscated weapons, never accepted any blame, created an enemy and then pointed his finger at them, all the way to the gas chambers.  Millions of innocent Jews were murdered because one man deceived a nation.  One man, who was in the minority, took control.  He painted a picture full of lies and deceit but he used pretty pastels to depict his Final Solution.

If the schools were once our way to study and learn from the past, the press was once our source of news and current information.  The press served as an additional “check” to keep the government accountable.  The government has commandeered the press to promote their agenda.  A once free press has become a puppet press, a tool of the state.  The once tenacious bull dogs, those who searched for and demanded the truth, have become little yip, yip lap dogs who quiver when their master raises an eyebrow.

Here’s The Guy Rudy Is Talking About: Frank Marshall Davis, Communist Party No. 47544

Here’s The Guy Rudy Is Talking About: Frank Marshall Davis, Communist Party No. 47544:

"Rudy Giuliani is being roundly criticized for several recent statements he has made about President Barack Obama, including the claim that Obama in his youth was influenced by a literal communist. I cannot address all of Giuliani’s remarks, but I can certainly speak to the influence of the communist he referred to. In short, Rudy was correct; and he even had Obama’s exact age (nine) right when he was first introduced to this person.

“From the time he was 9 years old, he was influenced by Frank Marshall Davis, who was a communist,” Giuliani said."

The slow-motion collapse of a civilization-----Japanese robot bear nurses soon to care for rapidly ageing population

Japanese robot bear nurses soon to care for rapidly ageing population - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation):
"Robotic nurses with cute bear faces developed by Japanese engineers could soon be the future carers of the nation's growing elderly population.
Japanese research institute Riken developed the Robear to support healthcare workers, with enough power to lift frail patients from bed and support unstable patients on their feet.

...A historically low birth rate and ever-increasing life expectancy means Japan's population of elderly people is growing, while the pool of youngsters to look after them is shrinking.
Japan's declining population puts it on course to lose half its workforce by 2060, and possibly its status as an economic superpower.
Despite calls for large-scale immigration into the racially homogenous country, residents remain reluctant, meaning an increasing reliance on robots, especially to perform physically difficult work."

"Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) on Tuesday admitted that Democrats in the Senate are blocking a bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security — something that many other Democrats have been unable to say in public.

“Last night, the Senate rightly so, the Democrats held up and blocked, and the bill was not successful, to have [DHS] funding tied to the elimination of the executive… actions,” Jackson Lee said on C-SPAN. “Rightly so.”

"RUSH:
"An Oregon Democrat believes that the fight for amnesty for illegal immigrants is the 'civil rights battle' for Millennials that will decide who controls the country for the next three decades. 'Immigration reform is probably the biggest issue of the 21st century,' Rep. Kurt Schrader (D-OR) reportedly said at an 'Immigration Day Action' event this weekend. 'It will decide who is in charge of this country for the next 20 or 30 years.'"

"The Department of Justice announced Tuesday that it will not file civil rights charges against George Zimmerman, the Florida man who claimed self-defense in his shooting of 17-year old Trayvon Martin, and instead has closed the case.

“After a thorough and independent investigation into the facts surrounding the shooting, federal investigators determined that there is insufficient evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt a violation of these statutes,” Justice said. “Accordingly, the investigation into this incident has been closed.”

What Patricia Arquette Got Wrong about the Constitution

What Patricia Arquette Got Wrong about the Constitution:

"As a result, voting eligibility varied by state. Certain states denied blacks the right to vote—but a majority did not. And—here comes the whopper—women were voting in New Jersey at the time of the Founding! For the first time in recorded history, women voted alongside men in elections. And it happened right here in America—the first country in the world dedicated to the proposition that all men and women are created equal.

The 19th Amendment, therefore, did not give women the right to vote. It guaranteed women the right to vote. By the time it was ratified in 1920, more than three-fourths of the states already allowed women to vote in some or all elections. Ultimately, the seeds of women’s suffrage were sown in the Declaration of Independence’s dedication to equality."

14 Signs That Most Americans Are Flat Broke And Totally Unprepared For The Coming Economic Crisis

14 Signs That Most Americans Are Flat Broke And Totally Unprepared For The Coming Economic Crisis | Zero Hedge:
The following are 14 signs that most Americans are flat broke and totally unprepared for the coming economic crisis…

#1 According to a survey that was just released, 24 percent of all Americans have more credit card debt than emergency savings.

#2 That same survey discovered that an additional 13 percent of all Americans do not have any credit card debt, but they do not have a single penny of emergency savings either.

#3 At this point, approximately 62 percent of all Americans are living paycheck to paycheck.

#4 Adults under the age of 35 in the United States currently have a savings rate of negative 2 percent.

#5 More than half of all students in U.S. public schools come from families that are poor enough to qualify for school lunch subsidies.

#6 A study that was conducted last year found that more than one out of every three adults in the United States has an unpaid debt that is “in collections“.

#7 One survey discovered that 52 percent of all Americans really cannot even financially afford the homes that they are living in right now.

#8 According to research conducted by Atif Mian of Princeton University and Amir Sufi of the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, 40 percent of Americans could not come up with $2000 right now without borrowing it.

#9 That same study found that 60 percent of Americans could not say yes to the following question…

“Do you have 3 months emergency funds to cover expenses in case of sickness, job loss, economic downturn?”

“Student Success Act” to Crush Religious Freedom, Private School Autonomy, Parental Rights: #NO on HR5 | COMMON CORE

“Student Success Act” to Crush Religious Freedom, Private School Autonomy, Parental Rights: #NO on HR5 | COMMON CORE:

 "2.  FEDERAL TAKEOVER OF PARENTAL RIGHTS

On page 567, Section 6564, we read that “…Other than the terms and conditions expressly approved by State law under the terms of this subpart,  control over public education and parental rights to control the education of their children are vested exclusively within the autonomous zone of independent authority reserved to the states and individual Americans by the United States Constitution, other than the Federal Government’s undiminishable obligation to enforce minimum Federal standards of equal protection and due process.”

By tying inalienable parental rights to the receipt of funds and federal “obligations,” the bill just claimed authority to take parental rights away, under conditions it has just defined.

Even in the statement of purpose on page 11, the bill minimizes parents and maximizes itself, by “affording parents substantial and meaningful opportunities to participate in the education of their children”.

To reduce parents to a recipient of government-granted “opportunities to participate in” the education of a child is de-parenting.  It’s far, far different from Utah’s  legal code, which states in multiple places that: “A student’s parent or guardian is the primary person responsible for the education of the student, and the state is in a secondary and supportive role to the parent or guardian.”


Our government is determined to take all of our rights away.  They must be stopped!

Yep. Snyder's government is too broke to fix the roads...........$4.1 million state grant announced for Muskegon Community College's Downtown Center

$4.1 million state grant announced for Muskegon Community College's Downtown Center | MLive.com:
"MUSKEGON, MI -- A $4.1 million state grant announced by Gov. Rick Snyder Tuesday will provide a big boost for Muskegon Community College's new Downtown Center.
MCC was one of 18 community colleges chosen to receive more than $21.5 million in funding for skilled trades equipment.
The money will be used for several MCC programs, including welding, machining, electrical technology and manufacturing automation, that are moving into the Downtown Center at the former Muskegon Chronicle building.
"This serious investment -- one of the largest of its kind in the country - will tap our top-notch community colleges and help new students and adults looking for new opportunities gain the skills sought by companies looking to grow and expand, creating more and better jobs in Michigan," Snyder said.
West Shore Community College in Scottville received nearly $424,000 for its registered nursing, protective services and welding programs."

Justice Dept. Reveals Border Logic: ‘Integrity of the Border’ Best Served by Protecting Illegal Immigrants | TheBlaze.com

Justice Dept. Reveals Border Logic: ‘Integrity of the Border’ Best Served by Protecting Illegal Immigrants | TheBlaze.com:

"The Justice Department argued Monday that by stopping the Obama administration from conferring benefits to illegal immigrants, a federal court is actually making it harder for the administration to enforce U.S. immigration laws.

The argument is likely to ring hollow with opponents of Obama’s plan to protect millions of illegal immigrants from deportation and let them work in the United States. Those opponents say Obama’s plan skirts U.S. immigration laws, and that last week’s court decision to block Obama’s plan was an effort to return to the rule of law."

‘The Incarnation of Hell…on Planet Earth’: Author Reveals Why Everyone Should Fear the Islamic State and Its ‘Apocalyptic Worldview’ | TheBlaze.com:

"In his forthcoming book, “Defying ISIS: Preserving Christianity in the Place of Its Birth and in Your Own Backyard,” Moore, who is attending the National Religious Broadcasters convention in Nashville, Tennessee, this week, offers stories of “horror and hope,” taking readers into some of the heart-wrenching and disturbing first-person accounts of the atrocities carried out by the Islamic State.

Moore, who doesn’t mince words when talking about the terror group, warns in the book that a Christian genocide is underway in the Middle East, as the Islamic State drives Bible-believers from their homes, seizes their possessions and brutally murders children and families.

“ISIS is the incarnation of hell, itself, on planet Earth,” Moore told TheBlaze in an interview."

Obama Exploits the Ignorance of Young People to Seize Control of the Internet - The Rush Limbaugh Show:

"RUSH: On Thursday the FCC is gonna vote on net neutrality.  I have some people sending me e-mail, asking me what it is.  I'll sum it up as best I can for you, but what is going to happen Thursday is a direct result of Obama hijacking the effort -- essentially, let me just put it to you this way.  Do you own a website, do you operate a website?  If Obama gets his way, you're gonna have to get a license for it just like radio and TV stations get licenses, because the Internet is gonna be subject to regulation under Title II like broadcast facilities are.  Cable is not, but over the air broadcast -- But they can't wait to regulate the Internet, folks, they just can't wait. "

Republicans Cave to Dem Demands, Agree to Split DHS, Immigration Legislation | TheBlaze.com

Republicans Cave to Dem Demands, Agree to Split DHS, Immigration Legislation | TheBlaze.com:

"Senate Republicans on Tuesday caved in to Democratic demands by saying they’d agree to hold separate votes on a bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security, and another bill to defund President Barack Obama’s executive action on immigration.

Republicans cast the move as the only way forward to ensure that a DHS funding bill can be passed by Congress this week. Democrats have conspired to block that bill for the last several weeks, given that it currently includes language to defund Obama’s immigration action."

Mental Mistake

Mental Mistake « Watchdog.org:
"Medicare pays for designated costs related to both inpatient and outpatient mental health services. (This is pretty important to beneficiaries who have a mental health condition that needs to be treated.) An article posted on Local10.com tells how the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of a Florida psychiatric hospital made a crucial mental mistake by overseeing the submission of $67 million in fraudulent claims to Medicare.

The story states that the scam occurred over a nine-year period of time during which the COO was supervising employees in the company’s inpatient and outpatient facilities.
He admitted to being aware that his employees were submitting the bogus claims for treatments that were neither medically necessary nor provided.
Many of the patients, who were found by paying bribes and kickbacks to patient brokers, were often admitted for mental health treatment before they saw a doctor and regardless of whether they qualified for treatment. (Medicare paid $40 million of the $67 million in claims submitted.)..."
