editor victoria’s comment ~ quite horrifying (but not surprising given what we know now) human trafficking increased over 800% during the years of 2010 and 2015. smack dab in obama-land presidency.

In a lengthy proclamation issued on Dec. 31, Trump said that it’s not enough to merely denounce such horrific assaults, instead, we must “actively work to prevent and end this barbaric exploitation of innocent victims.”
“Human trafficking is a modern form of slavery,” the proclamation stated. “We are morally obligated to confront and defeat the abhorrent practice of human trafficking, and I am keeping my pledge to take aggressive action.”
Such crimes are often described as an everyday problem hidden in plain sight. Data from a landmark Global Slavery Index report in July last year found that 1 in 800 people in the United States lives in modern slavery. The phrase is a broad term used to describe victims of forced labor, sexual exploitation or servitude, and forced marriages, among other abuses.
Trump has made combating human trafficking a focal point of his administration over the past two years. In February 2018, he signed an executive order to dismantle transnational criminal organizations that traffic and exploit people. In January 2018, Trump signed a similar declaration for the month.
A school system in Massachusetts is proving to be malicious, incompetent, or maybe both.
Of course, we suspected that already. But the latest example comes from a lawsuit from a woman who pulled her 8-year-old son from Worcester Public Schools to homeschool him last January.
Josilyn Goodall is suing the Worcester School Committee, Superintendent Maureen Binienda, and the state Department of Children and Families after police entered her home, handcuffed her, and arrested her over what amounted to a paperwork dispute.
According to the lawsuit, Goodall is seeking unspecified compensatory damages for the violation of her Constitutional rights and for the “mental pain and suffering” inflicted upon her and her son.
The lawsuit details Goodall’s multiple attempts to contact the Superintendent after filing paperwork in January saying she was going to homeschool her son. She said she never got a response to any of her phone calls or emails.
In Massachusetts, parents who wish to homeschool their children must submit an education plan to the superintendent of the local school system for approval. However, according to Care and Protection of Charles (1987), the court case upon which homeschool legal precedent was established, the burden of proof is on the school to show that the homeschool program is insufficient.
The lawsuit further alleges that the Worcester School Committee’s homeschool policy is unlawful, in that it requires students to continue attending public school until the education plan is approved. Charles allows for homeschooling to begin as soon as the plan has been submitted.
To most rational people, Charles makes sense. If parents are to have any right to educate their children at home, they must be able to begin homeschooling before receiving approval from the schools. Otherwise, a school could conveniently hold hostage the education plan and never approve it, essentially forcing the child to stay in the public school.
But instead of following the state law or even their own policy, Worcester school administrators ignored Goodall’s education plan and her attempts to contact them, continued marking her son absent, and never reached out to Goodall to discuss their concerns.
It would be hard to tell if the school was being passive-aggressive or just plain incompetent, unable to send or receive emails and phone calls. Except that they had no problem contacting the Department of Children and Families to report Goodall for “educational neglect.”
DCF officials apparently took the school’s word for it, never asking for attendance records for Goodall’s son before showing up at her door on March 30. In addition, a DCF investigator believed the superintendent’s secretary, who told her there was a new law that required homeschooled students to continue attending school until their education plan was approved.
Yes, a state department took legal advice from a superintendent’s secretary.
Then, police escalated the situation, to the surprise of absolutely no one. The lawsuit states that officers pounded on Goodall’s door and threatened to forcibly open it. When Goodall was intimidated into letting them in, an officer laid hands on Goodall, handcuffed her, ordered her into a chair and yelled in her face — while her son watched and cried.
Additional officers arrived and started searching the home, while the DCF investigator questioned the son. Goodall was arrested and brought to the police station and was booked, though no charges were filed. She paid bail and finally made it back home after a 7-hour ordeal.
The legal battle continued with DCF filing a complaint of educational neglect that was eventually dropped by the court. Goodall submitted another education plan to the Superintendent on April 10.
You would think school officials would jump right on it this time around, but they dragged their feet yet again. Goodall left another voicemail and sent an email before finally hearing from the secretary on April 25. Her plan was not officially approved until May 9, after Goodall’s legal counsel wrote a letter essentially asking the Superintendent’s Office to piss or get off the pot.
Goodall’s ordeal is just the most extreme of many examples of harassment and intimidation the Worcester School District is doling out to homeschoolers.
According to the Worcester Telegram, many homeschooling families were waiting on District approval of their education plans months after submitting them. To add to the stress, many were receiving letters that said they could face truancy charges if their children were not in school and they had not received approval.
The hypocrisy of the District is astounding. Rather than sending approval letters—or even rejection letters— in a timely fashion, they sent letters threatening parents, as though it was the parents’ fault that their plan might not be approved “in time.”
While it is bad news that school administrators seem intent on harassing homeschoolers and escalating disputes, there is a silver lining to this whole issue.
We’re not going to take it.
Homeschoolers routinely show up in large numbers to protect their right to homeschool their children. The Homeschool Legal Defense Association hosted an informational forum on Aug. 15 in Worcester to discuss the concerns of local homeschooling families and to clarify the state’s laws.
As a Massachusetts homeschooler myself, I attended the meeting. There were upwards of 100 people in attendance from Worcester and surrounding towns. The group shared advice, made plans to turn out en masse to School Committee meetings, and made sure they were educated on what is and is not legally required in state homeschool law.
Public schools are in the business of teaching conformity and unquestioning obedience of authority. Meanwhile, homeschoolers are by definition educational non-conformists. They also tend to have a healthy skepticism of authority figures and government in general.
They show up to fight stupid policies. They protest. They write letters. They politely decline unlawful demands from school systems.
They file lawsuits.
And since homeschoolers are in the business of educating their children, it seems likely that these ideals will transfer to the next generation.
And that is why I expect an education revolution in my lifetime, one in which consent and freedom dominate children’s learning.
Public schools, with their policies of intimidation and coercion for children and adults alike, have at least one lesson to offer homeschooled kids: everyone deserves better.
On Friday, December 7, 2018, the President signed into law:
S. 2152, the “Amy, Vicky, and Andy Child Pornography Victim Assistance Act of 2018,” which requires Federal courts to order mandatory restitution against a defendant who is convicted for trafficking in child pornography.
Russian President Vladimir Putin brushed off concerns about his country’s recent military confrontation with Ukraine, calling it a “minor incident.”
On Wednesday, he then went on to accuse Ukraine of stirring up anti-Russian sentiment as a way to placate its population, saying that if the Ukrainians wanted to eat babies, then the government would let them do that too.
“Kiev is actively stirring up anti-Russian sentiment. That’s all they have. And it all works. If they want to eat babies for breakfast tomorrow, they’ll probably give them babies,” he told an audience at a conference in Moscow.
On Monday, Ukraine’s government announced that it would declare martial law in 10 of the regions that are believed to be at risk of a Russian military invasion. The government in Kiev said that its intelligence services have evidence that Russia is planning a ground invasion.
The escalation began on Sunday when Russian ships prevented three Ukrainian navy vessels from entering the Sea of Azov from the Black Sea via the Kerch Strait. The incident ended with three wounded Ukrainian soldiers being detained by Russia, and they still remain in Moscow’s custody. They later emerged on Russian television confessing that the Ukrainians had been provocative, but officials in Kiev said that the men had been forced to lie.
Judicial Watch has obtained exclusive information and photos from Guatemalan authorities revealing that they have recovered seven unaccompanied minors from human smugglers working inside the caravan. The children have been taken into custody and they are being provided with food, water and medical attention, according to a high-level Guatemalan government official. The smugglers have been arrested and the broader investigation into criminal activity in the caravan is ongoing.
A Judicial Watch team, headed by Director of Investigations Chris Farrell, spent several days on the Guatemala-Honduras border covering the illegal alien caravan, which originated in the northern Honduran city of San Pedro Sula. The team filed a number of exclusive reports and videos and met with Guatemalan President Jimmy Morales and other top government officials.
“Judicial Watch has been at the forefront of this top news story, reporting exclusive information from inside that no other news organization is reporting,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “Chris Farrell and Irene Garcia put themselves in harm’s way to get this material, and Judicial Watch supporters nationwide are highly grateful for their sacrifices.”
editor victoria’s comment ~ i remember in my 20’s beginning to question all of these “children’s organizations” – the ones aiming to end poverty, hunger, disease and yet seeing NONE of those issues eradicated much less lessened (only increasing). all of that money spent with little if any results. that’s when the alarms in my brain began to go off. another very detailed NEONREVOLT piece below.
I’m a bit overwhelmed by the amount of information I’m about to send your way.
What’s come of this research is so massive, so earth-shattering, the sheer scope of it all boggles the mind.
This could EASILY end up being the largest article I ever write on the site, and to truly understand all the implications of what I’m about to say, you’ll have to be one of my longer-term followers. Needless to say, I never, not in a million years, thought my research would lead me here.
What started out as a suspicion (followed by a lot of keen observation) has ballooned into something so much greater.
But before I get in to the details, I have to give MAJOR kudos to an individual who only wishes to be referred to as “Anon”for helping with the digs. I started the research, but this Legionary just took it and ran, and came back with some of the most mind-blowing leads I have ever seen in my history of the chans, doing research. Working with Anon on this has been a joy, and it’s the kind of thing I would be very glad to see more of from the community – not just people messaging me with a potential lead for me to investigate, but taking the initiative to really research and dig on their own. Anon took it to the next level here, put in a ton of work, and, in my opinion, struck solid gold.
What we’re about to see here started, initially, as a follow-up to my #BlackListAnonarticle.
It then spiraled out, onto the world stage, into international aid groups, celebrities, finance, and so much more.
Brace yourself, and get ready to cover a LOT of ground. To call it a “web” barely does it justice, and it goes so deep, I’m not sure we’ve hit the bottom just yet. I’m going to do my best to try and document all the manifold relationships here, so you’ll have to bear with me if things get a bit bumpy, but I want to get what’s been dug up out there already, so more eyes can start digging along the same lines, and in similar fashion.
Okay, to start:
If you’ve been following me for at least a month, you probably saw my #BlacklistAnon article, wherein I came out and announced that it was, in fact, I who was BlacklistAnon:
In researching that story, I uncovered a web of of Soros-influence within the lower levels of Hollywood, designed to effectively choke out Conservative voices, and promote a “progressive” agenda. Through my research, I documented how the man above, Franklin Leonard, was connected to three different Soros-related orgs:
Reinvent.
The Aspen Institute.
And-
MoveOn.org.
The reaction to the article was outstanding. People not only saw what I saw, but it clear that this was one great example of how Soros’ spread his influence by using strategically placed assets throughout, in this example, Hollywood.
His reaction was, perhaps, the most entertaining of all:
And then, he had to capitalize on the “antisemitic” angle that was going around the next week, to try and discredit my research:
Still, I began to look even more closely at Franklin in the wake of that article. I saw him openly supporting men like Tom Steyer (read: Billionaire who financed child trafficking out of Haiti), Andrew Gillum, and Stacey Abrams – all radical Bolshevik candidates for office, funded by Steyer.
And then I realized… Leonard actually had a history with Gillum, going back years:
Turns out there are a whole bunch of photos from this event up on Getty Images (but because it’s Getty Images, I can’t embed unless I buy the whole thing – so you’ll just have to click through the link to see the image in question):
Notice anything about this next photo from the same event?
Yeah, the red shoes.
Could be coincidence.
Might not be.
As researchers, we have to be open to avenues of inquiry like this. My long-term readers will understand the implication of red shoes, but some of my newer readers might not just yet. If that’s the case, well… you’ve got a LOT of catching up to do – and yes, it’s shocking. I know.
Here’s a good place to start with said catching-up:
But then, the other day, Franklin tweeted out this link:
@FRESHSpeakers, huh?
Deciding to see if he had inadvertently given away a new lead (Franklin is either arrogant like that, or stupid like that – hard to say which) I went to the site, looked around, and said to myself, “This just reeks of #Soros.”
Within five minutes of searching I had a definitive link that, yes, this is just another Soros group:
Vanessa Valenti – a #Feminazi funded by Soros, who literally runs Feministing.com, and who is connected to both the Aspen Institute (both Franklin Leonard and John “#TheMolesta” Podesta have connections at the Aspen Institute) and the Open Society Foundation – by her own admission:
It’s probably worth it for #Anons to conduct a major dig into this gal and her connections at some point – but that’s beyond the scope of this particular article, for now.
The point I’m trying to get at with this is that we now have Franklin Leonard connected to FOUR Soros-funded organizations:
Reinvent.
The Aspen Institute.
MoveOn.org.
And-
FRESHSpeakers.
…Vaccine injury lawyer Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Del Bigtree, producer of the suppressed anti-vaccine documentary, Vaxxed and the Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN) are credited with this victory. They demanded the relevant government documents proving that all federally approved vaccines had been tested for quality over the past 32 years — and there were none.
Here are the huge legal and practical implications in this legal victory for the American people:
o This means that the US Department of Health and Human Services and all vaccine makers have been lying to the American people for over 30 years about the effectiveness and safety of vaccines; this may
ultimately mean that continuing the existence — at least in their current form — of five US “healthcare” agencies are now in doubt: the CDC, the FDA, the IOM, the NIH and the “Health” part of DHHS itself;
this may also threaten the existence of state medical boards and exclusive medical guilds like the AMA:
o This means that vaccine makers have been fraudulently exempt from what all other pharmaceutical drug makers have been forced to do concerning biannual recertification for quality and effectiveness — meaning that that their vaccines have never been tested for quality and have had no proven safety or effectiveness for over 30 years;
o This case can now be legally cited by all parents fraudulently mandated by any government/organizational regulation/requirements that they must vaccinate their children for school or any other activity to stop
the forced vaccination of their children;

News that Yazidi sex slave survivor Nadia Murad has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her efforts to end the use of sexual violence as a weapon of war barely registered on the American media radar screen.
Murad was abducted in northern Iraq in August 2014, when Islamic State (ISIS) jihadists took over her village.

“At just 21 years old, she was kidnapped alongside an estimated 3,000 other Yazidi women and girls, traded as sex slaves from one ISIS fighter to another. She was forced to pray, dress up, and apply makeup in preparation for her rape, which was often committed by gangs,” Kelsey Harkness wrote for The Daily Signal on Oct. 12.
Murad said: “My hope is that all women who speak about their stories of sexual violence are heard and accepted, that their voices are heard so they feel safe.”
But, Harkness wrote, “Nadia’s story is falling on deaf ears. Because being ‘heard’ requires others to listen. Imagine the difference ‘feminists’ could make if, in addition to banging on the doors of the U.S. Supreme Court, they also took a few minutes to bang at the doors of the United Nations.”

A 13-year-old Long Island boy battling a rare and deadly form of leukemia stood with his parents in family court Monday, sharing another disappointment as a judge rejected the family’s emergency petition to halt his daily chemotherapy treatments.
