An interesting place to find news and our commentary on it. Journalism is an awesome field, but a lot of people ruin it. So this is us saying STFU.

Libertarians, let’s just go and move to a floating pod in the ocean and start humanity over again. Let’s live like it’s the end of the world, UTOPIA. Silicon Valley billionaire is giving money to start one. LET’S GO.
Flickering Lights Could Power The World
Regular light bulbs straight from the shelf could be the future of wireless technology.
Energy-efficient light-emitting diodes (LED) have long been eyed as a convenient replacement for energy to supply wireless networks. But German researchers successfully converted light bulbs that come right off the shelf.
If used widely, the technology not only creates a vast new application for light, but could also expand our limited wireless capacity.
Nobody tell Michele Bachmann.

So the term “credit card” was first used in a novel about a socialist utopia? Good. No, no that’s not ironic at all. New Déjà Vu!
OMG, an actual Republican, with an actual plan. But I thought that defaulting was not important, that’s what your leader Preibus says.
Anyways.
“massive plan to cut the nation’s deficit by $9 trillion over the coming decade, including $1 trillion in tax increases opposed by most of his fellow Republicans.” He is calling the plan, ‘Back in Black’.
OK, Republican Senator from Oklahoma, a.k.a., Tom Coburn, what’s the plan?
“proposals like raising to 70 the age at which people can claim their full Social Security benefits. It would cut farm subsidies, Medicare, student aid, housing subsidies for the poor, and funding for community development grants. Coburn even takes on the powerful veterans’ lobby by proposing that some veterans pay more for medical care and prescription drugs.”
Coburn even threw out a year like 2080, that is how far into the future he is looking.
When everyone on Tumblr will be dead.
You cut education to college students, America will have no future. You cut money to veterans, you will not have people willingly volunteering in your armies. AND YOU CANNOT CUT FUNDING TO THE POOR, that is the opposite of a future.
Back in Black- AC/DC will be very upset at you.
It all started when the Obama presidential campaign released a video of Obama asking supporters to get involved in his reelection campaign and enter a contest to win dinner with him and the Vice President. Some Republicans raised questions about the ad being filmed in the White House.
What is the president supposed to do? Specifically leave the White House so he can film an ad.
“crime for the President of the United States to solicit political contributions in a place of official government business.” Says Reince Priebus, Chairman of the Republican National Committee.
Obama lives there, he works there, he eats there, he sleeps there.
This, this, this is what the CHAIRMAN of the Republican nat. co. has a problem with.
Priebus instead of wasting countless time and energy on stuff that doesn’t even matter, why doesn’t he focus his time and opinions on the national default of our country.
But ads filmed in the White House residence are perfectly legal, according to a 1979 opinion by the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel.
Ok, ok, but now Priebus says, “no, it looks like the map room.”
Guess what, the MAP room is considered part of the residency.
Fickle, fickle.
It’s a Priebus kind of night.
So, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus is desperate.
He wants, nay, he needs more candidates to run against Obama. Cause, honestly, the motley crew out right now is not cutting it.
Herman Caine makes a fool of himself talking about closing down mosques and confusing separation of church and state.
Michele Bachman’s clinic not only takes government money to ‘pray away the gay,’ but her family also squeezes farm subsidies. She is a contradiction onto herself, and she says God talks to her.
Mitt Romney is Mormon, not that I have anything wrong with that, but their beloved tea party does.

San Francisco Police Are Lying About Killing Teenager, Witnesses Say
Is the San Francisco Police Dept lying? Witnesses say yes.
The police are lying. The poor young man is already dead, and gains nothing from the witnesses being on his side, but the police have plenty to lose (more credibility). I don’t care how drugged out you are, no one dies for a bus fare. No way this 19 year old riding the bus went “Al Pacino ‘Heat’” on these cops because a bus fare.
Easy mistake to make, the keys are right next to each other.
I absolutely love how Michael Wolff handles himself in this scenario, too bad they cut him off. It would have been interesting to see what he actually knew.
