We’ve lived so long under the spell of hierarchy—from god-kings to feudal lords to party bosses—that only recently have we awakened to see not only that “regular” citizens have the capacity for self-governance, but that without their engagement our huge global crises cannot be addressed. The changes needed for human society simply to survive, let alone thrive, are so profound that the only way we will move toward them is if we ourselves, regular citizens, feel meaningful ownership of solutions through direct engagement. Our problems are too big, interrelated, and pervasive to yield to directives from on high.

Obama Justice Department Demands Personal Information on Website Commenters

Click here to access article by Donn Marten from The Greanville Post.
Obama’s new Attorney General Loretta Lynch has had one hell of a start to her new gig. There was the sweetheart deal with the big banks over the FOREX currency market rigging, the politically motivated international bust of several FIFA officials as cover for revoking the 2018 World Cup from Russia and now the escalation of the police state. The pissing contest over Lynch’s confirmation provided a nice racially tinged cover for the fact that she is yet another establishment insider, a fox tasked with guarding the hen house. Her service on the board of the New York Federal Reserve while Timothy Geithner was heading it was a dead giveaway.

Lynch is a very dangerous woman and she is just getting warmed up right now, keep that in mind when you are making your comments folks.

Fascism just never sleeps here in the Homeland.
