"The case arose in 2013 because of the actions of then Mayor of Houston, Annise Parker, who instructed the city financial officer to give legal status and recognition to so-called same-sex “marriages” for city employees and to provide benefits to same-sex “spouses” of employees at the expense of Houston taxpayers. This was in clear violation of the Texas Marriage Amendment in the Texas Constitution.
Mayor Parker’s edict occurred before the U.S. Supreme Court’s Obergefell decision allowed homosexuals to be legally “married.” The Court’s decision was an exercise of raw judicial power in order to advance the homosexual agenda of creating moral anarchy in society. It had no legal basis in the U.S. Constitution. The concept of homosexual “marriage” is a mirage because it is a lie, foisted upon the American society by five unelected justices.
Marriage was established by God. “For this cause a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife and they shall become one flesh” (Genesis 2:24). Jesus reaffirmed this in Matthew 19:4-5. The Obergefell ruling is in direct violation of God’s law and standard for marriage and as such must be opposed by elected officials in lower positions of authority, as they interpose themselves between the citizens from wicked rulings by higher authorities in order to prevent the citizens from being forced to violate God’s law. The Obergefell decision is a perversion of God’s standard for marriage.
This Pidgeon v Parker case was won initially in state district court in Harris County. The City of Houston appealed the decision to the 14th Court of Appeals, comprised of all Republican judges. The initial trial court decision in favor of Woodfill’s plaintiffs, Pastor Jack Pidgeon and Larry Hicks, was reversed by the appellate court. This reversal effectively expanded Obergefell to include taxpayer-funded benefits. This led to Woodfill’s appeal for a rehearing before the Texas Supreme Court on the grounds that the appellate court’s ruling infringed upon taxpayers’ religious liberties and upon Tenth Amendment State’s Rights.
It was the well-reasoned dissent by Supreme Court Justice John Devine, to the initial denial of the Texas Supreme Court, which caused a public outcry over this denial, that led Atty. Gen. Ken Paxton to file an Amicus Brief with the Supreme Court which was signed by Gov. Greg Abbott and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick.
Additionally, I filed an Amicus Brief which was signed by 70 Republican legislators, statewide officials, and leaders of various Texas conservative organisations.
The written opinion in Pidgeon v Parker is expected to be issued by June of this year.
Jared Woodfill is to be commended for pressing this case to the Texas Supreme Court. He had been advised to drop the case after the 14th Court of Appeals overruled the state district court’s favorable ruling. Jared knew that this case had the potential to limit the scope of the Obergefell “same-sex” marriage decision and even lead to Obergefell being overturned on appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Jared Woodfill has proven that he has a lion’s heart: “The righteous are as bold as a lion” (Proverbs 28:1)."

http://www.naturalhealth365.com/chicken ... -2156.html
"Americans love chicken. Whether from factory farming or organic free range chicken, we eat an average of 84 pounds of it per person per year. However, nutrition experts from Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) are now warning that grocery stores and factory farming are bringing you meat contaminated with chicken feces.
Scientists from the PCRM were surprised at just how common it was to find contaminants on grocery store chicken. For the study, chicken products from 15 U.S. grocery store chains in 10 cities were tested for E. coli bacteria as evidence of fecal contamination.
E. coli plus toxic chemicals and viruses found in store-bought chicken
Some of the chicken products from each store chain and city tested positive, and overall, 48 percent of the samples tested positive for E. coli. In addition to feces, store-bought chickens have tested positive for toxic chemicals and even “superbugs” that are resistant to antibiotics.
Chicken is often treated with chlorine as part of the factory farming process in an attempt to clean it. However, the addition of this chemical only adds to the potential contaminants and carcinogens on grocery store chicken.
In poultry farms and during transportation, chickens defecate freely and are often standing in feces. Feces can also be released from the intestines during slaughter. This makes the presence of contaminants common during the processing of chicken meat.
Nearly all grocery stores and brands tested positive for toxins
Chicken meat is often rinsed with chlorinated water and inspected for visible contamination. However, factory farms and plants that process a high volume of chicken are clearly missing some of the fecal matter, as evidenced by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine study.
Chicken brands tested included Foster Farms, Gerber’s Poultry, Piggly Wiggly, Nature’s Promise, Open Nature, Publix, Red Bird Farms, Sanderson Farms, Wild Harvest Natural, Safeway O Organics, Springer Mountain Farms, Pilgrim’s, Eating Right, Harris Teeter, Harvestland, H-E-B, Smart Chicken, Roundy’s, Safeway, Super G, Supervalu, Hill Country Fare, Perdue, Murray’s and Covington Farms.
The grocery store chains tested included Fry’s, Albertsons, Dominick’s, Giant, Harris Teeter, Kroger, Pick ‘n Save, H-E-B, Jewel-Osco, Piggly Wiggly, Publix, Winn-Dixie, Ralphs, Randalls and Safeway.
Despite risk, U.S. Department of Agriculture standards are being reduced
Among the samples tested, chicken with skin on or off seemed equally at risk for contamination. Antibiotic-free chicken samples and conventional samples were both found to be contaminated at around the same levels.
Over 8 billion chickens are slaughtered each year in the U.S. However, instead of ramping up inspection procedures for factory farming, the U.S. Department of Agriculture is planning to decrease standards and measures for keeping consumers safe from contaminants. This is despite chicken feces being found in over half of the chicken sold in stores across the U.S.
Favor organic free-range chicken over factory farming
These findings underscore the importance of thoroughly rinsing raw chicken under running water before cooking to remove contaminants. Doing so can help to clean off what the processing plant may have missed.
Of course, purchasing higher quality organic free-range chicken – from a local farmer instead of mass produced products – will greatly reduce your odds of exposure to contaminants. In addition, be sure to cook chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of at least 165 F to ensure food safety.

"The Voice of the Martyrs:
VOM contacts study weather patterns carefully in order to choose the best time to launch gospel balloons into North Korea. The winds must be just right to ensure that the balloons and their precious cargo of gospel literature reach populated areas.

Although North Korea is one of the most restricted and isolated nations on earth, VOM contacts continue to find unique ways of spreading the gospel there. One effective method involves launching helium-filled weather balloons carrying gospel tracts and New Testaments into the country.

By including a GPS transponder in the balloons, Christian workers can even track their paths and see where the precious gospel payload lands.We also use radio broadcasts to reach into North Korea over the airwaves. The North Korean government often tries to jam our signal, but by repeatedly changing frequencies we have been able to continue sharing the Good News.

In a nation where owning a Bible is only a dream for most Christians, these radio broadcasts are of immeasurable value. North Korean defectors in South Korea read the Scriptures over the air in a slow, deliberate manner so listeners can write down passages of God’s Word themselves. These handwritten verses are likely the only Bibles that many North Koreans will ever have."

From Robert Spencer: " Facebook and Twitter are censoring Jihad Watch as "hate speech," in accord with assurances they recently gave to the European Union that they would stop tolerating such speech. Now, I do not accept and will never accept the idea that reporting on jihad activity and Sharia oppression constitutes "hate speech," but that is, of course, the longstanding claim of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and Muslim groups in the West, and has been uncritically adopted by the Left, with which Facebook and Twitter are so firmly aligned. In reality, what constitutes "hate speech" is a subjective judgment. The label itself is a tool in the hands of the powerful, enabling them to control the discourse and silence dissenters to their agenda. That is ultimately what this is about: the purveyors of the Big Lie always have to shut down those who tell the truth, because they are aware that their whole enterprise rests on a lie and is deeply threatened by the truth. They can only put their lie across by constant repetition and relentless persecution of those who tell the truth. The truth-tellers, in contrast, need not resort to censorship against the liars, for they are confident that the truth, if given a fair hearing, will be obvious and compelling.

The good news in all this is that despite this choking-off of referrals from Facebook and Twitter, Jihad Watch's overall readership is growing. Apparently many people who used to come to the site from Facebook and Twitter are finding different avenues. That is very important in general: free people must not accept this censorship, which is a desperate lashing-out of a discredited and weakening political and media elite against an inexorably growing populist revolution. If Facebook and Twitter shut out the truth, then we have to, in large numbers, shut out Facebook and Twitter. That is certainly what I am going to do: while each Jihad Watch post automatically goes up on Facebook and Twitter (for as long as that will last), I will never personally go to either one again. And despite the ever-decreasing platform for those who dissent from the socialist, globalist, internationalist agenda of these sinister and authoritarian elites, there is every reason to be confident. They have all the money and all the power and all the platforms, and even so, Brexit was voted in, Trump was elected, and much, much more is to come. There is, after all, one weapon they do not have on their side, and that is why, for all their intermediate success, they are doomed to failure: that weapon is, of course, the truth.

Robert Spencer is the director of Jihad Watch and author of the New York Times bestsellers The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades) and The Truth About Muhammad. His latest book is The Complete Infidel's Guide to ISIS."

"The makers of Disney's new Beauty and the Beast movie have included a "gay character and love scene" between Gaston and his male sidekick, LeFou, according to the BBC. The movie hits theaters March 17.
"LeFou is somebody who on one day wants to be Gaston and on another day wants to kiss Gaston. He's confused about what he wants," director Bill Condon told Attitude magazine. "It's somebody who’s just realising that he has these feelings. And [LeFou] makes something really subtle and delicious out of it. And that’s what has its payoff at the end, which I don't want to give away. But it is a nice, exclusively gay moment in a Disney movie."

In response, American Family Association is encouraging all its friends to take a stand, by signing an open letter of protest to Disney, and by joining AFA in co-producing a godly family Film, The Pilgrim's Progress.

Take Action Now!
And please share this important message with your friends and family members.

"Abortion Activists Kill Baby Jesus in Graphic Abortion on Virgin Mary Outside Catholic Church.

Pro-abortion activists staged a gross and disgusting publicity stunt outside a local Catholic Church. The protest was meant to draw attention to the nation’s pro-life laws on International Women’s Day — as if killing baby girls in abortions somehow advances the cause of women. As part of International Women’s Day (March 8), feminist protestors simulated a bloody abortion on a woman dressed as the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ, outside the cathedral in Tucuman, Argentina.
In the mock abortion in front of the cathedral, a young woman is wearing a white dress, a blue veil, and a crown of flowers. She is also wearing what appears to be a rosary around her neck.
She is sitting on a chair with her legs spread and several “abortionists” wearing pink “pussy” hats are removing and dismembering a bloody fake baby from her vagina. Fake blood and body parts cover the street."

"Soldiers at Paris' Orly airport who shot dead a man who tried to grab their female colleague's weapon heard him say he was ready to die for Allah.
The incident triggered a major security alert that caused travel chaos today local time.
It came as France remains on high alert following a series of jihadist attacks that have claimed more than 230 lives since January 2015.
Prosecutors said they had opened an anti-terror investigation.
"Put your weapons down. I'm here to die for Allah. In any case people are going to die," the man told three patrolling soldiers, Paris prosecutor Francois Molins said, giving an account of the attack.
A cousin of the attacker was also detained, as well as his father and brother, Mr Molins added.
Flights were halted at Orly for several hours, with incoming flights diverted and thousands of passengers stranded at Paris' second-largest airport, but normal service resumed mid-afternoon.
France goes to the polls on April 23 in the first round of a two-stage presidential election in which security is one of the main issues on voters' minds.
Interior Minister Bruno Le Roux said the attacker, who he named as Ziyed Ben Belgacem, was "known to the police and intelligence services".
He said the suspect was also linked to an attack on police just north of Paris earlier the same day in which an officer was slightly wounded.
At the airport, the 39-year-old man knocked the soldier to the ground and grabbed at her rifle, a senior military source said.
Two other soldiers with her then opened fire, killing him, the source said.
No-one else was injured.
According to an eyewitness, the man had at one point grabbed the female soldier by the neck.
"The man took a soldier hostage, he was holding her by the neck and he was threatening two other soldiers with the woman's rifle," the traveller said.
The incident took place at about 8.30am local time in the south terminal. About 3000 people were evacuated from the building.
Franck Lecam, a traveller bound for Tel Aviv, said he heard "three or four shots" as he was queueing to check in.
Addressing reporters at the airport, Mr Le Roux said Belgacem had tried "but not succeeded" in his bid to grab the soldier's rifle.
He said the same man was also suspected of opening fire on police during a routine traffic inspection in the northern Paris suburb of Garges-les-Gonesse about 7am. One officer suffered minor head injuries.
He was thought to have stolen a car and driven to Orly, Mr Le Roux said.
Sources close to the investigation said Belgacem had committed several armed robberies and was investigated for radicalisation in 2015, although he did not feature on the list of those thought to pose a high risk.
He lived in an apartment in Garges-les-Gonesse, which was searched by investigators after the airport incident.
Air traffic to Orly was suspended and all incoming flights rerouted to Paris' main Charles de Gaulle airport, north of the city.
Passengers in the western terminal were kept inside the building, which reopened at around 1200 GMT. Operations resumed soon afterwards at the southern terminal, where the incident occurred.
Elite police teams secured the airport and searched it for explosives but none were found.
The shooting took place on the second day of an official visit to Paris by Britain's Prince William and his wife Kate, which was unaffected.
France remains under a state of emergency after a series of terror attacks, including the November 2015 massacre in Paris and a truck attack in Nice last July.
In mid-February, a machete-wielding Egyptian man attacked a soldier outside Paris's Louvre museum before being shot and wounded.
The soldiers on patrol at Orly airport belong to Operation Sentinelle, a force of 7,000 troops deployed in the capital and other cities after the January 2015 attacks in Paris.
On Thursday, a letter bomb exploded at the Paris offices of the International Monetary Fund, injuring a secretary who suffered burns to her hands and face.
French President Francois Hollande called that incident an "attack", saying it showed the country was "still targeted".

"The advertisement talks about hazelnuts and a hint of cocoa, but neglects to mention refined palm oil and a massive dose of sugar. Sugar and Palm Oil Do Not Make for a Healthy Breakfast, an infusion of sugar is not part of a balanced diet. In fact, eating sugar triggers natural opioids in your brain and may be as addictive as cocaine to some people.
Sugar increases your risk of disease, tricks your body into gaining weight and may trigger behavioral changes.The second ingredient making the news is palm oil,
Health Effects of Refined Palm Oil Called Into Question
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), akin to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, recently released a study finding the chemical contaminants that result from refining vegetable oils (including palm oil), may increase your risk of cancer.
The substances causing concern included: glycidyl fatty acid esters (GE), 3-monochloropropanediol (3-MCPD), and 2-monochloropropanediol (2-MCPD) and their fatty acid esters. When refined at approximately 200 C (392 F), palm oil and palm fats had the highest number of contaminants, including GE.
No tolerable or safe levels have been set for GE as the group found sufficient evidence it is genotoxic and carcinogenic.
Palm oil is the cheapest vegetable oil, costing $800 per ton, compared to $845 for sunflower and $900 for rapeseed.8 Ferrero uses 185,000 tons each year, so switching could increase costs between $8 to 22 million annually.
Although the World Health Organization and the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization also flagged refined palm oil with the same risk, they did not recommend banning the ingredient. The palm oil industry, valued at $44 billion, has found a vocal and passionate supporter in Ferrero.
Without prompting, and following the release of the study, a large supermarket chain in Europe decided to boycott processed palm oil. Barilla has also eliminated it from their products.
It isn't the effects of palm oil that are in question, but rather what happens to the oil during the refining process to remove the color and neutralize the smell. considered and evidence-based research demonstrates significant negative effects on health. For instance, when vegetable oils are heated they become unstable, producing large numbers of dangerous oxidation products, including aldehydes associated with lung cancer.
Vegetable oils also have large amounts of biologically active omega-6 fats that lowers the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fats in your body, which may trigger cardiovascular disease, asthma, cancer, obesity and rheumatoid arthritis.
When you eat foods high in omega-6 fats it increases the amount of inflammation in your body, contributing to the development of the illnesses listed above. The less omega-6 fats you eat the less omega-3s you need to maintain a healthy balance. An imbalance of omega-6 fats increases your risk of cancer, even without the additional toxic load of GE molecules from the refining process.
According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), glycidol has been classified as a 2A carcinogen. In the IARC monograph they state:
"Glycidol is probably carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A). In making the overall evaluation, the Working Group took into consideration that glycidol is a direct-acting alkylating agent that is mutagenic in a wide range of in-vivo and in-vitro test systems."

"David Rockefeller the last of his generation of the fabled banking dynasty synonymous with wealth and power, died at the family’s sprawling country estate in Pocantico Hills, New York, on Monday, March 20. He was 101. The grandson of Standard Oil co-founder John D. Rockefeller, he was the youngest of five brothers, and the one destined to leave the biggest mark on the world.
The titles of news stories and obituaries announcing his passing refer to him as a banker, billionaire, businessman, and philanthropist. He was much more than that, but there has been little amongst the glowing tributes in the Rockefeller-friendly media to hint at his darker passions and accomplishments, particularly as they relate to his promotion of globalism and world government.
During the 1970s and 1980s, especially, David Rockefeller was considered by knowledgeable observers across the political spectrum to be the undisputed “chairman of the Eastern Establishment.“ In addition to being chairman of the Chase Manhattan Bank, the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), the Trilateral Commission (TC), the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, and the Americas Society, David Rockefeller was a director, trustee, and/or funder of numerous foundations, corporations, organizations, and think tanks. Fortune magazine put his personal net worth at about $3 billion in 2015. However, the Rockefeller family empire of companies, directorships, and foundations — not to mention David Rockefeller’s incomparable rolodex of personal contacts with presidents, prime ministers, poohbahs, and potentates — extended his influence far beyond his pecking order in the “personal net worth” game.
Typical of many obituaries, the one provided by the Associated Press described him as growing up “in a famous American family that taught its children that wealth brings great responsibility. Even as children, he and his siblings had to set aside portions of their allowances for charitable giving.” And, according to the AP account, "he embraced business and traveled and spoke widely as a champion of enlightened capitalism.”
What the AP obit fails to mention is that David Rockefeller’s definition of “enlightened capitalism” had nothing to do with traditional notions of free enterprise, market economics, and property rights, and everything to do with promoting global centralized government and bureaucratic/technocratic rule, a “new world order” overseen by an elite oligarchy, of which the Rockefellers would be primus inter pares — first among equals.

In Memoirs, his autobiography, published in 2002, David Rockefeller made this startling confession:
For more than a century ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents such as my encounter with Castro to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as ‘internationalists’ and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure — one world, if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it. A longtime leader at the ultra-secretive Bilderberg Group conferences, David Rockefeller had this to say to the accommodating members of the establishment media in attendance at the 1991 Bilderberg meeting: We are grateful to the Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But the world is more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries.
Rockefeller’s confidence in the establishment “fake news” media was well placed. They made sure that any publicly asked questions concerning the machinations and inordinate influence of groups such as Bilderberg, the Trilateral Commission, the CFR, etc., would be smothered — sent down the Orwellian memory hole — and anyone who persisted in seeking answers to these questions would be tarred as a whacko “conspiracy theorist.”
It’s no secret that the Rockefeller family wrote the check for the United Nations that enabled that aspiring dictators’ club to buy the Turtle Bay property in New York City that became its global headquarters. And American taxpayers have been paying for it — in innumerable ways — ever since. Likewise, the Rockefellers utilized both their financial and political clout to advance schemes for empowering various UN-related institutions: the World Bank, International Monetary Fund, World Health Organization, World Trade Organization, UNICEF, etc.
The Rockefeller hands behind the creation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA), Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP), and the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) were also clearly apparent, even though the controlled media completely covered up this important aspect of these regional “trade” agreements.
The New American repeatedly exposed the secretive dealings of the Rockefeller “new world order” operatives in these crucially important developments. Writing about the 2001 Summit of the America’s in Quebec, for instance, we reported (“Pincer Strategy Behind the FTAA”):
The Quebec Summit, like the 1994 Summit of the Americas in Miami, where the 34-nation Free Trade Area of the Americas was launched, was completely a production of the CFR and the Rockefeller family. As we noted in these pages following the Miami event, the Summit of the Americas and the FTAA were conceived, nurtured, and brought to fruition by the Council of the Americas (David Rockefeller, founder and honorary chairman), the Americas Society (David Rockefeller, chairman), the Forum of the Americas (David Rockefeller, founder), the U.S. Council of the Mexico-U.S. Business Committee (Rodman C. Rockefeller, chairman), the Council on Foreign Relations (David Rockefeller, former chairman), the Trilateral Commission (David Rockefeller, founder and honorary chairman), the Chase Manhattan Bank (David Rockefeller, former chairman), and the Institute for International Economics (David Rockefeller, financial backer and board member).

The Miami summit had come close on the heels of the globalists’ victorious passage of NAFTA (accomplished thanks to plentiful lying, bribing, arm-twisting, and deceiving). Avid one-worlder Henry Kissinger, a member of the executive committee of the Trilateral Commission and a longtime power in the CFR, called the vote on NAFTA the single most important decision that Congress would make during President Clinton’s first term. Indeed, Kissinger admitted in the Los Angeles Times in 1993 that passage of NAFTA “will represent the most creative step toward a new world order taken by any group of countries since the end of the Cold War.” NAFTA “is not a conventional trade agreement,” he said, “but the architecture of a new international system."
David Rockefeller’s behind-the-scenes manipulations in the election of Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter to the White House in 1976 began to be a significant public issue, as it became apparent that this supposed “outsider” had staffed his administration with insiders from the elite Trilateral Commission and its sister organization, the CFR. “The Trilateral Commission (TC),” we noted in The New American last year, “was founded in 1973 by uber-banker David Rockefeller, who was, at the time, the CFR’s chairman of the board. He retired from that active position in 1985, but has remained as honorary chairman ever since. The TC serves the same one-world agenda as the CFR, but has joined Asian, European, and Canadian one-world elites to its American globalists. The late Barry Goldwater referred to it as ‘David Rockefeller’s newest cabal.’” “It is intended to be,” said the former Republican Party presidential candidate and author of Conscience of a Conservative, “the vehicle for multinational consolidation of the commercial and banking interests by seizing control of the political government of the United States.”
In his 1979 memoir With No Apologies, Goldwater stated: "In my view the Trilateral Commission represents a skillful, coordinated effort to seize control and consolidate the four centers of power — political, monetary, intellectual, and ecclesiastical.... What the Trilaterals truly intend is the creation of a worldwide economic power superior to the political governments of the nation-states involved.... As managers and creators of the system they will rule the future."
David Rockefeller responded to these and other attacks at the time with an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal on April 30, 1980. Rockefeller, who at the time was chairman of both the CFR and the Trilateral Commission, said that "far from being a coterie of international conspirators with designs on covertly ruling the world, the Trilateral Commission is, in reality, a group of concerned citizens interested in fostering greater understanding and cooperation among international allies."
Yes, David, and the Trilats are merely “concerned citizens” working selflessly for “greater understanding and cooperation.”
Progressivism, Communism, Socialism, Fascism, Perversion, Environmentalism

Long before George Soros became the sugar daddy of the American Left and the bête noire of the American Right, David Rockefeller was bankrolling and promoting a huge array of statist and subversive movements through his network of foundations and organizations. Together with the Ford Foundation and Carnegie foundations, the Rockefeller group of foundations helped push America toward ever bigger, more intrusive, more costly, more centralized government. They also funded the creation of a vast army of organizations that have formed the bases for exploiting most of the “wedge issue” conflicts in our society: abortion, population control, homosexual/LBGT rights, gender identity, immigration/migration, gun control, voter identification, environment, global warming, social justice, racial justice, etc.
Concern about the subversive activities of these “great foundations” became serious enough that two congressional investigations were launched in the early 1950s. Of considerable concern for investigators was not only that the foundations frequently used their tax-free status to fund projects that were inimical to American society, but also that often the foundation grants were designed simply as seed money to start programs that were intended to become government programs, with the taxpayers then paying directly for the foundation-initiated projects. One recent example of this type is the Obama administration’s Global Health Initiative (GHI), a population control scheme that was actually launched by David Rockefeller’s “Good Club,” an elite coterie of billionaires that includes George Soros, Ted Turner, Bill Gates, Michael Bloomberg, and Oprah Winfrey.

Among the many additional “accomplishments” David Rockefeller can claim to have had a major role in are:
The promotion of socialism throughout Western Europe following World War II via the Marshall Plan, and the launching of the sovereignty-destroying European Union.
The promotion of corruptive and unconstitutional “foreign aid” programs, as well as an ever-increasing funding for UN agencies, projects, and programs.
Funding for the Kinsey Institute and the perverse (and criminal pedophile) activities of Alfred Kinsey and other sex “experts.”
Promoting Communist China and transforming it from a backward Third World country into a global military-economic-technological power. In addition to placing his top protégé, Henry Kissinger (CFR/TC), into the Nixon administration, Rockefeller returned from a visit to Communist China in 1973 to chillingly declare that "the social experiment in China under Chairman Mao's leadership is one of the most important and successful in human history." Mass-murderer Mao's "social experiment" had by that time slaughtered up to 64 million Chinese.
Promoting the leftward drift of the legal profession and the so-called social sciences by funding a plethora of leftist “scholars,” journals, and organizations, such as Gunnar Myrdal, Franz Boaz, John Dewey, Stuart Chase, the Social Science Research Council, the National Education Association, etc.
While living a luxurious globe-hopping lifestyle, he funded numerous militant “green” groups that agitate for ever-harsher restrictions on energy use by the common man and increasing empowerment of UN bodies to exercise more controls over all human activity.
While many eulogies by the rich and famous will sing his praises and media obituaries will laud his philanthropic giving, David Rockefeller’s true legacy is one of aiding tyrants and tyranny, while simultaneously undermining Christian morality, our constitutional order of checks and balances, and our national sovereignty."

"Leptospirosis (or lepto) is a disease caused by an infection with bacteria that are spread by the urine of an infected animal and can be found in water or soil. The bacteria can survive there for weeks, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Wild animals can spread the disease and then dogs can pick it up through an open cut or when drinking from an infected water source.
Rats can also be common carriers of the disease, so lepto can be found in large urban areas where rodents are a problem. They might transmit the disease after drinking in a puddle or leaving droppings on streets or in kennels where dogs are housed.
The disease is zoonotic, meaning it can be spread from animals to people. The disease isn't very common, but it is serious. several strains of the bacteria can cause the disease.
One common sense precaution you can take to keep your pet safe is to always carry drinking water for your pet. That will keep him from drinking out of puddles or streams or any other place where water can be infected with lepto bacteria.
"It's not simple to get leptospirosis but if you're a dog and you get it, you're really sick and you could die," veterinarian Lori Bierbrier, D.V.M, a medical director at the ASPCA, tells MNN. "And on top of that it can then be transmitted to a person. It’s a pretty big deal all around.”
lepto can cause a slew of serious human health problems, including liver failure, kidney damage, meningitis, respiratory issues and can eventually lead to death.
Lepto can cause serious damage to a dog's liver and kidneys, according to the American Veterinary Medical Association. Symptoms can include fever, vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, muscle tenderness, increased thirst and lethargy ...some of the same symptoms seen in many other conditions.
If your dog is diagnosed with lepto, there are key steps you have to take to keep yourself and your family safe. Avoid contact with your dog's urine and if you have to clean up a spill, be sure to wear rubber gloves. Wash your hands after handling your pet and try to keep your dog from urinating in any standing water that other animals might come in contact with."

" psychologist and TV show host Dr. Phil exposed the little-known phenomenon of human trafficking of sex slaves among the elite echelons of society. According to Dr. Phil, the victim, and reliable sources who corroborated her story, the girl — now a young woman, perhaps in her mid-20s — was flown around the world on private jets and forced to have sexual relations and engage in unspeakable acts with wealthy businessmen, political leaders, and other establishment figures. Much of what was described on the the Dr. Phil Show sounded satanic."

“London is more Islamic than many Muslim countries put together,” says London Islamic preacher Maulana Syed Raza Rizvi.
The city of London – dubbed “Londonistan” by outspoken journalist Melanie Phillips – now has 423 new mosques, which are “built on the sad ruins of English Christianity.” So writes Italian journalist and writer, Arutz Sheva columniist Giulio Meotti in an article written for Gatestone Institute reported here.
The Hyatt United Church, for instance, on Hamilton Road, was purchased by the Egyptian community and is being converted into a mosque. St Peter’s Church is now the Madina Mosque, and the Brick Lane Mosque used to be a Methodist church. Not only buildings are converted, writes Meotti, but also people: “The number of converts to Islam [in London] has doubled; often they embrace radical Islam, as with Khalid Masood, the terrorist who struck Westminster.”
“Given the current trends,” he predicts, “Christianity in England is becoming a relic, while Islam will be the religion of the future.”
It is estimated that by 2020, the number of Muslims attending prayers will top the number of Christians attending weekly Mass, 683,000 to 679,000. Within a generation, the number of churchgoers will be three times lower than that of Muslims who go regularly to mosque on Friday.
Meotti cites a Wall Street Journal report stating that 500 London churches of all denominations had been turned into private homes.
Demographically, Britain has been acquiring an increasingly Islamic face in many cities. A study carried out in 2015 showed that the most common name in England was none other than Mohammed and variations thereof.
Birmingham, England’s 2nd largest city, has a population that is 21.8% Muslim; Manchester, #6, stands at 15.8% Muslim, and Bradford, with well over 300,000 people, is a quarter Muslim, including half its children. In Leicester, too, Britain’s 10th largest city, half the children are Muslim.
Meotti cites a report in The Spectator according to which only two of the 1,700 mosques in Britain follow the modernist interpretation of Islam, compared with 56% in the United States.
But possibly most telling is the presence in London of no fewer than 100 sharia (Islamic law) courts, according to official statistics; there are likely many more. “The advent of this parallel judicial system has been made possible thanks to the British Arbitration Act and the system of Alternative Dispute Resolution,” according to Giotti. “These new courts are based on the rejection of the inviolability of human rights: the values of freedom and equality that are the basis of English Common Law.”
One of Britain’s leading judges, Sir James Munby, said that courts must be more “multicultural” – an allusion to “Islamic.” Leading personalities such as former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams and Chief Justice Lord Phillips have suggested that British law should “incorporate” elements of sharia law.
Analysts continue to observe and report on the trend, and invariably conclude by asking: “Is anyone doing anything to stop it?”

"Over the last decade, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has donated cash and commodities totaling more than $42 million to eight community and religious organizations that serve the homeless in Salt Lake City. There are dozens of partners that draw upon the Church’s food reserves at bishops’ storehouses on a monthly basis. In addition, the Church offers counseling services, employment training, job placement and personal ministering to the homeless.

The Church’s institutional response is made possible by the ongoing generous humanitarian and other contributions of Church members. In addition, many members do what they can as individuals and families to support community efforts designed to assist the homeless"

"Abortion Activists Kill Baby Jesus in Graphic Abortion on Virgin Mary Outside Catholic Church.

Pro-abortion activists staged a gross and disgusting publicity stunt outside a local Catholic Church. The protest was meant to draw attention to the nation’s pro-life laws on International Women’s Day — as if killing baby girls in abortions somehow advances the cause of women. As part of International Women’s Day (March 8), feminist protestors simulated a bloody abortion on a woman dressed as the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ, outside the cathedral in Tucuman, Argentina.
In the mock abortion in front of the cathedral, a young woman is wearing a white dress, a blue veil, and a crown of flowers. She is also wearing what appears to be a rosary around her neck.
She is sitting on a chair with her legs spread and several “abortionists” wearing pink “pussy” hats are removing and dismembering a bloody fake baby from her vagina. Fake blood and body parts cover the street."

"United Airlines has released four official statements in response to the backlash against the company since a customer was dragged from an oversold flight Sunday evening at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.

The first three were from the parent company's CEO, Oscar Munoz. The fourth was posted on the company's website Thursday after a news conference by the passenger's attorneys.

Here is the text of those statements:

First statement, released by the airline midday Monday:This is an upsetting event to all of us here at United. I apologize for having to re-accommodate these customers. Our team is moving with a sense of urgency to work with the authorities and conduct our own detailed review of what happened. We are also reaching out to this passenger to talk directly to him and further address and resolve this situation.

Oscar Munoz, CEO, United Airlines

Second statement, sent to employees Monday evening:

Dear Team,

Like you, I was upset to see and hear about what happened last night aboard United Express Flight 3411 headed from Chicago to Louisville. While the facts and circumstances are still evolving, especially with respect to why this customer defied Chicago Aviation Security Officers the way he did, to give you a clearer picture of what transpired, I've included below a recap from the preliminary reports filed by our employees.
As you will read, this situation was unfortunately compounded when one of the passengers we politely asked to deplane refused and it became necessary to contact Chicago Aviation Security Officers to help. Our employees followed established procedures for dealing with situations like this. While I deeply regret this situation arose, I also emphatically stand behind all of you, and I want to commend you for continuing to go above and beyond to ensure we fly right.

I do, however, believe there are lessons we can learn from this experience, and we are taking a close look at the circumstances surrounding this incident. Treating our customers and each other with respect and dignity is at the core of who we are, and we must always remember this no matter how challenging the situation.

Oscar

Summary of Flight 3411

• On Sunday, April 9, after United Express Flight 3411 was fully boarded, United's gate agents were approached by crewmembers that were told they needed to board the flight.

• We sought volunteers and then followed our involuntary denial of boarding process (including offering up to $1,000 in compensation) and when we approached one of these passengers to explain apologetically that he was being denied boarding, he raised his voice and refused to comply with crew member instructions.

• He was approached a few more times after that in order to gain his compliance to come off the aircraft, and each time he refused and became more and more disruptive and belligerent. • Our agents were left with no choice but to call Chicago Aviation Security Officers to assist in removing the customer from the flight. He repeatedly declined to leave.

• Chicago Aviation Security Officers were unable to gain his cooperation and physically removed him from the flight as he continued to resist - running back onto the aircraft in defiance of both our crew and security officials.

Third statement, sent to employees Tuesday afternoon:

Dear Team,

The truly horrific event that occurred on this flight has elicited many responses from all of us: outrage, anger, disappointment. I share all of those sentiments, and one above all: my deepest apologies for what happened. Like you, I continue to be disturbed by what happened on this flight and I deeply apologize to the customer forcibly removed and to all the customers aboard. No one should ever be mistreated this way.

I want you to know that we take full responsibility and we will work to make it right.

It's never too late to do the right thing. I have committed to our customers and our employees that we are going to fix what's broken so this never happens again. This will include a thorough review of crew movement, our policies for incentivizing volunteers in these situations, how we handle oversold situations and an examination of how we partner with airport authorities and local law enforcement. We'll communicate the results of our review by April 30th.

I promise you we will do better.

Sincerely,

Oscar

Fourth statement, posted on the company's website Thursday:

We continue to express our sincerest apology to Dr. Dao. We cannot stress enough that we remain steadfast in our commitment to make this right.

This horrible situation has provided a harsh learning experience from which we will take immediate, concrete action. We have committed to our customers and our employees that we are going to fix what's broken so this never happens again.

First, we are committing that United will not ask law enforcement officers to remove passengers from our flights unless it is a matter of safety and security. Second, we've started a thorough review of policies that govern crew movement, incentivizing volunteers in these situations, how we handle oversold situations and an examination of how we partner with airport authorities and local law enforcement. Third, we will fully review and improve our training programs to ensure our employees are prepared and empowered to put our customers first. Our values — not just systems — will guide everything we do. We'll communicate the results of our review and the actions we will take by April 30.

United CEO Oscar Munoz and the company called Dr. Dao on numerous occasions to express our heartfelt and deepest apologies."

"You can reduce your chemical exposure by eliminating chemicals in your home, and using only natural cleaning products that are plant based. There are many safe cleaning products like Ecover, Mrs. Meyers, Seventh Generation, Sun & Earth, and Orange Plus. Even though they are more expensive, they are more concentrated, and worth it because they are safe.
Another alternative is to make your own natural cleaning products. Using homemade natural cleaning products makes “cents,” because it is cheaper, healthier and non-toxic, and it is fun.
To clean with natural products all you need is:


• Baking soda
• Vinegar
• Borax
• Hydrogen peroxide
• Liquid castile soap
• Organic essential oils (optional)
• Mixing bowls
• Spray bottles
• Micro fiber cloths
• Vodka (optional)
Baking soda is great to scrub your bath and kitchen. Put it in a glass grated cheese container with a stainless steel top that has holes in it, and just sprinkle the baking soda on the surfaces and scrub. You may add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to this. Lavender and tea tree oil have anti-bacterial qualities.
Baking soda mixed with apple cider vinegar is a bubbly combination that has many uses. As a drain cleaner, sprinkle baking soda down the drain then add apple cider vinegar and let it bubble for 15 minutes, then rinse with hot water. This is a safer alternative to dangerous drain cleaners. Baking soda and apple cider make a wonderful spa-like bath for soaking away aches and pains and detoxifying. It also cleans the tub and the drain.
Baking soda can also be used as a fabric softener in your laundry.
To polish silver, instead of using toxic silver polish, fill your kitchen sink with hot water, add a sheet of aluminum foil and baking soda, and let the silver pieces soak until clean. It is an easy and fun way to clean silver.
Vinegar can clean almost anything in your house; you can add liquid castile soap, essential oil (optional), and filtered water, then clean floors, windows, bath, kitchen, etc. Vinegar can also be used as a fabric softener. Never use dryer sheets -- they are toxic too. In the laundry, use vinegar in the wash cycle to prevent fabrics from fading.
Commercial window cleaners contain butyl cellosolve -- a toxic ingredient that is not listed on the labels, so vinegar and water is much safer. Use a micro fabric cloth, not newspaper, which contains toxic dyes.
Borax is a good laundry booster and cleaner (it can even remove mold) -- and is safe and non-toxic.
Hydrogen peroxide is a disinfectant, and is safer to use than chlorine bleach for disinfecting and whitening. Lemon juice is also a natural whitener.
Liquid Castile Soaps can be found in health food stores and are safer than commercial liquid cleaning products.
Organic essential oils may be used in homemade cleaning products depending on your personal preference and tolerance to these scents. Never use synthetic fragrances or air cleaners.
Commercial fabric refreshers also contain dangerous chemicals, therefore, use vodka in a spray bottle to freshen up chairs and upholstery. The vodka is cheaper, non-toxic and the alcohol evaporates, and is not harmful. The alcohol in hand sanitizers is harmful, however, and should not be used on children since the alcohol absorbs into your body via your skin. Therefore, use only hand sanitizers that are plant based from the health food store, or just good old soap and water.
Making your own natural cleaning products is rewarding and fun, and you can use the natural scents that you prefer while ensuring that your home is safe from dangerous chemicals that are harmful to your, and your family’s, health."

"NORTH KOREAN VIDEO SHOWS US WIPED OUT
Meanwhile, video footage played during a military celebration in Pyongyang over the weekend emerged on Wednesday and shows North Korean missiles destroying an American city.
The video was shown during the birthday celebration for the country’s founder Kim Il Sung and depicts rockets streaming across the ocean before exploding when reach land. It also shows a US flag in flames and rows of white crosses in a cemetery, the Korean Central News Agency reported.
“When the performance was over, all the performers and participants in the military parade broke into enthusiastic cheers of ‘hurrah!’,” the state-run news agency reported. “The Dear Supreme Leader waved back to them and congratulated the artistes on their successful performance.”

"North Korea says it is ready to sink a US aircraft carrier to demonstrate its military might, as two Japanese navy ships joined a U.S. carrier group for exercises in the western Pacific.
US President Donald Trump ordered the USS Carl Vinson carrier strike group to sail to waters off the Korean peninsula in response to rising tension over the North's nuclear and missile tests, and its threats to attack the United States and its Asian allies, including Australia.
The United States has not specified where the carrier strike group is as it approaches the area.
US Vice President Mike Pence said in Sydney on Saturday it would arrive "within days" but gave no other details.
North Korea remained defiant.
"Our revolutionary forces are combat-ready to sink a US nuclear powered aircraft carrier with a single strike," the Rodong Sinmun, the newspaper of the North's ruling Workers' Party, said.
The paper likened the aircraft carrier to a "gross animal" and said a strike on it would be "an actual example to show our military's force".
The commentary was carried on page three of the newspaper, after a two-page feature about leader Kim Jong Un inspecting a pig farm.
North Korea will mark the 85th anniversary of the foundation of its Korean People's Army on Tuesday.
It has in the past marked important anniversaries with tests of its weapons.
North Korea has conducted five nuclear tests, two of them last year, and is working to develop nuclear-tipped missiles that can reach the United States.
North Korea says its nuclear program is for self-defence and has warned the United States of a nuclear attack in response to any aggression.
It has threatened to lay waste to South Korea and Japan, and also warned Australia about a nuclear attack if it continues to "blindly" follow the US.
The two Japanese warships, the Samidare and Ashigara, left western Japan on Friday to join the Carl Vinson and will "practice a variety of tactics" with the US strike group, the Japan Maritime Self Defence Force said.
The Japanese force did not specify where the exercises were taking place but by Sunday the destroyers could have reached an area 2,500 km south of Japan, which would be waters east of the Philippines.
From there, it could take three days to reach waters off the Korean peninsula."
