The great William Norman Grigg, formerly of the John Birch Society, brings to our attention rich Congressional testimony by a tax goon who went straight. LewRockwell.com is such a great site that Freedom's Phoenix sometimes sends a survey of its recent highlights among its own news links.
Mr. Grigg's specialty is covering the problem of rogue police.

Spendocrats never stop
Did you know there's a depression on? Yes, we are in a DEPRESSION. The politicians and other "chattering classes" are calling it a recession, but that is traditionally defined as two consecutive quarters of falling gross domestic product or GDP. the USA is way beyond that point. Don't look to the fedgov for any real indication of this, however -- the multi-trillion-dollar warmongering and giveaway programs go merrily on as if things were still the economically rosy (if illusory) 1990s.... and even expands, as if money grew on trees! Here are recent items from very useful if sometimes liberaloid Freedom's Phoenix organization in the great and sometimes rebellious state of Arizona and the ever-revealing News Of The Weird syndicated feature.

Federal spending rises a record 16% in 2009, Census Bureau says
Washington Post Federal domestic spending increased a record 16 percent to $3.2 trillion in 2009, the Census Bureau reported Tuesday, largely because of a boost in aid to the unemployed and the huge economic stimulus package enacted to rescue the sinking economy.

http://www.newsoftheweird.com/archive/index.html Americans continue to agonize over government "giveaways," but as News of the Weird has noted several times, somehow federal farm subsidies continue unabated -- even though much of the money no longer goes to cuddly "family farms" but to rich urban industrialists who hardly know a plow from a sow. In the latest accounting from Environmental Working Group records, the weekly New York Press revealed such "agrarian" handout-seekers as Manhattan billionaires Leonard Lauder and David Rockefeller -- and Rockefeller's son Mark. (In fact, for 10 years now, the federal government has handed Mark $54,500 a year not to grow anything on his 5,000 acres in Idaho. According to the Press, Mark never intended to, in that he only bought the land because it was adjacent to the upscale, socialite-hangout South Fork fly-fishing lodge he runs next door.)

Playing with the spin at IRS
This from www.BlacklistedNews.com, a site I (needless to say) recommend very highly:
Other headlines from the site today show somebody's tax dollars at work:
The Internal Revenue Service on Wednesday said it would rebrand its big business unit, adding the word "international" to reflect a renewed focus on companies that stash money abroad to avoid taxes.
Other headlines from the site today show somebody's tax dollars at work:
The Department of Defense spends tens of billions of dollars annually creating software that is rarely reused and difficult to adapt to new threats. Instead, much of this software is allowed to become the property of defense companies, resulting in DoD repeatedly funding the same solutions or, worse, repaying to use previously created software.
The Ultimate Betrayal: Police and Military Working Together to Oppress Americans
Now it turns out that some police agencies are storing the controversial images after all. The U.S. Marshals Service admitted this week that it had surreptitiously saved tens of thousands of images recorded with a millimeter wave system at the security checkpoint of a single Florida courthouse.

Network News: Seeing Through Illuminati Eyes
(The CBS Logo is also the symbol of the Illuminati, a dot in a circle.)by L. C. Vincent
(for henrymakow.com)
After WWII, with the emergence of three rival television networks, each with their own news departments, most Americans would have argued that the new age of television would grant them a multiplicity of sources and viewpoints.
Yet from their very inception, all three TV networks have been guided by men who were a product of and beholden to America's intelligence agencies. From the beginning, the men who ran ABC, CBS and NBC as well as those sitting on their boards of directors, had the deepest ties to the CIA, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Rothschild Banks and the Rockefeller Foundation. From the very beginning, the US news media has been designed to promote the New World Order, guided by the "light" of the Illuminati. This is why network newscasts are virtually identical.
According to the late investigative reporter Eustace Mullins, CBS Chairman William S. Paley was both conduit and operative for the CIA. Many directors of CBS had CIA ties. NBC and ABC Television networks were also riddled with CIA and Rothschild banks-linked directors.

Will Arizona immigration bill thrive in SC?
This is exciting. Whether the plan described ever comes to pass or not, it's exciting to see a "bedroom community" in the PN's home state considering doing what the fedgov refuses to. Local action has the power to overcome any amount or type of federal corruption if only people will stand up and do it in sufficient numbers!
The Patriot Network is not as an organization opposed to immigration, and this story does not represent an official PN statement of any kind -- but we do of course uphold the Constitution and the rule of law. -- NW

Immigration skirmish brews in quiet SC town
- Associated Press Writer
SUMMERVILLE, S.C. — In a quiet Southern bedroom community of gardens and parks across the country from Arizona, another skirmish in the battle over illegal immigration is brewing.
Summerville Councilman Walter Bailey, worried there is a void in immigration laws, has proposed an ordinance that goes farther than state law, which was sharpened two years ago to allow police to identify illegal immigrants for deportation.
The proposal would prevent illegal immigrants from living in the town of 45,000, which calls itself "Flower Town in the Pines," and in most cases prevent them from working here.
Bailey, a former state prosecutor, says it was prompted in part by the Obama administration's challenge of the new Arizona law that was to have taken effect this week.
"It was outrageous that when, by default, the state of Arizona has to go in there and do the job the federal government ought to be doing - instead of showing appreciation and support in Arizona, the federal government sues," Bailey said...........

From the darkside: new law is nightmare for the IRS
You've heard of the myriad new ways that we' the people (and the small businesses) are going to have to stop what we're doing and report petty (and very private) details of or business life to the faceless tax goons. Horrors -- woe is us -- how will we get out of it alive? WHAT NEXT?
The devil must have a great sense of humor, because this time the whammy is on the tax rats too! Found this only by probing the deeper site ideas in my main general news forum -- you know what that is perhaps.
I like their "mopping up" metaphor. It reminds me of the time a few years ago when it was our distinct pleasure to report that the main IRS in the District of Criminals had been half wrecked by flooding. What, they don't like bureaucrats they've never met piling on new red tape obligations that have no connection to reality and only serve to bog life down, ever further down down down? OUR HEARS BLEED FOR THEM.
