Protect First Amendment Rights
Tuesday, November 29th, 2016Question Authority!
Both Government & Corporate
Freedom of Speech and Freedom of the Press go hand-in-hand. They are guaranteed under the First Amendment. Read the important article by Ben Norton and Glenn Greenwald entitled “Washington Post Disgracefully Promotes a McCarthyite Blacklist From a New, Hidden, and Very Shady Group. The Washington Post and this new shady group smears dozens of U.S. news sites that are critical of U.S. foreign policy as being “routine peddlers of Russian propaganda.” – Read the article about the smear here: http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article45927.htm Also read Washington Post Promotes Shadowy Website That Accuses 200 Publications of Being Russian Propaganda Plants <https://is.gd/HBTUjL>
Here is a link to the sites named. http://www.propornot.com/p/the-list.html I regularly read many of the sites and value the information they provide. Here are a few. Mahalo. Jim Albertini

A New Thanksgiving!
Monday, November 21st, 2016Save Civilization:
Prevent Climate Disaster & Nuclear War!
The stakes couldn’t be higher. It is imperative that people mobilize, stand up, speak out, and become activists to make a difference. We have no time to waste. In the face of impending climate disaster from accelerating global warming, and escalating wars and global tensions that could result in the use of nuclear weapons, the time to act to save civilization is now.
Silence in the face of injustice, violence, and evil is not a responsible option. It is part of the problem. The time for band aides being applied to deep systematic problems is wishful thinking. It is time to stand united in protest against injustice, violence, and evil in all its forms –racism, sexism, bigotry, war, exploitation, the addiction to money and power, and the destruction of the planet. Too many have lost sight of respecting the sacred, protecting the planet, and building communities and a world based on principles of justice and peace for all.
Let the power of non-violence (Kapu Aloha) be your guiding light. Draw from your own spiritual well, and the strength and wisdom passed to you by your ancestors. Speak for the voiceless – the earth — air, land and sea, and for future generations depending on our responsible actions now. Demonstrate your solidarity with victims of injustice. When we fail to speak, we speak. When we fail to act, we act. No longer be afraid to show the courage of your convictions. Give new meaning to Thanksgiving!
