Federal officials are scrambling to contain the fallout from a massive Social Security data exposure that has thrust millions of Americans into the crosshairs of identity thieves. A whistleblower has alleged that more than 300 m Social Security records were placed at risk, potentially affecting virtually every working-age and retired person who depends on federal benefits. The breach is not just a technical failure, it is a direct threat to people’s credit, bank accounts, and long term financial security. Continue reading
In the ancient town of Casinum – modern-day Cassino, Italy – parts of a Roman amphitheater still stand after nearly 2,000 years.
King David sinned by taking a census (trusting in numbers rather than God). A plague hit Israel. David looked up toward the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
A Personal Note from Tom DeWeese:
For decades many of us have been trying to wake the public up to the machinations of a plethora of our leaders working toward a one-world order controlled by the rich and powerful, to be structured on Marxism/communism.
The mega-billionaire George Soros and his son may not be funding the anti-Ice protests directly, but they send money to other projects and organizations that could be. Soros already sent money indirectly to fund the “No Kings” protests. Soros also funded the elections of far-left district attorneys in blue cities across the country. Those DAs let criminals go free to commit more crime including murder. 
Judging from opinion polls, the American public has increasingly become largely disenchanted with the bizarre behavior of President Donald J Trump and the clownish entourage that surrounds and encourages him.
President Trump has put a $1 billion price tag on membership for nations who wish to permanently join his new ‘Board of Peace’.
President Trump’s bid to knock four letters off the “Department of Defense” in a rebrand to the “Department of War” could cost upwards of $100 million, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has estimated.
In 1987, American historian Paul Kennedy wrote an influential book, “The Rise and Decline of Great Powers.” Its thesis was that powerful nations falter once they devote too much energy and resources to military interventions at the expense of their own economy.
Both Bill and Hillary Clinton refused to comply with the House Oversight Committee’s subpoena that required them to testify about Jeffrey Epstein. It only underlines the hypocrisy of the Democrats, who repeatedly stated ‘nobody is above the law’ as they concocted bogus charges against Trump. The Clintons are above the law. Hillary committed egregious crimes, and her comrade James Comey let her off the hook. 
After years of heading in the wrong direction, nobody can deny that the United States is facing overwhelming problems. So why don’t we focus on fixing those problems first? The truth is that we can’t do everything because our resources are very limited. U.S. households are more than 18 trillion dollars in debt, and the federal government is more than 38 trillion dollars in debt.
