Berkeley Mayor Member of Facebook Group for Militant Leftist Organization That Orchestrates Riots

We Are Change

Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguin, who many have speculated was behind stand down orders to police during recent riots in the city, is a member of the Facebook group of far left militant organization, By Any Means Necessary (BAMN).

BAMN was named by the FBI in 2005 as thought to be involved in domestic terrorist activities, and have boasted that they  were the “organizers of Berkeley’s shutdown of white neo-fascist Milo Yiannopoulos.” 

BAMN is perhaps best known, however, for a 2016 incident in which they showed up to a rally held by the white-nationalist Traditionalist Workers Party outside the California state capitol building in Sacramento. The militant group was confrontational with the white-nationalists within minutes of arrival, and ten people were stabbed and hospitalized in a bloody fight. Police have verified through videos taken by members of the group, news organizations, and bystanders, that BAMN initiated the violence.

Arreguin, a far-left liberal, made headlines in February for his tweets prior to BAMN organizing a riot to prevent right-wing political commentator Milo Yiannopoulos from speaking at the city’s University of California campus.

“Using speech to silence marginalized communities and promote bigotry is unacceptable. Hate speech isn’t welcome in our community,” Arreguin had tweeted.

The mayor also referred to Yiannopoulos as a “white supremacist,” and was forced to issue an “apology.”

“I consider much of what Mr. Yiannopoulos says to be hateful. But I regret and apologize for the white national label,” Arreguin tweeted.

Hours after his tweet, supporters of President Donald Trump who hoped to listen to Yiannopoulos speak were under a violent attack. People were assaulted with pipes, a generator-powered spotlight was firebombed, and looters destroyed several businesses in the area including a Starbucks.

The rioters smashed windows, spray painted violent messages all over the area — including “Kill Trump” — and began committing arsons. It was estimated that the rioters caused $100,000 in damage to the MLK Student Union, and $400,000 to $500,000 in damage to the area surrounding the university.

It was immediately alleged that the mayor had ordered the police to stand down and allow the violence and destruction.

Arreguin denied the accusations, saying that the police strategy was ordered by the department, not him. “They did an excellent job in preventing further risk to safety,” he added.

It was alleged by journalist and author Mike Cernovich, who broke the Susan Rice scandal as well as impending Syria strikes, that the FBI was investigating Arreguin role in the stand down.

Last weekend, violence and chaos erupted in the city once again as anarchists in black bloc attire attempted to shut down a pro-free speech rally dubbed “Patriot’s Day.” The militant leftists, including BAMN, assaulted the free-speech activists with bottles, M80s, and other instruments of riots.

“At first police were doing a good job keeping the crowd divided, then antifa exited the park and went into the street,” journalist Tim Pool told Big League Politics of the police response during the event, “but the police just stayed in the park, so huge fights broke out and there were no police at all.”

Liberal Mother Jones reporter Shane Bauer also confronted several officers to ask why they were not intervening to stop the violence. One of the officers he confronted shrugged, shook his head, and responded that “would be a good question for the chief of police.”

The Patriot’s Day rally was organized in response to violent attacks by antifa at a “March 4 Trump” in the city on March 4. Multiple Trump supporters were injured at the event, including an elderly man who was assaulted and pepper sprayed by the militant left.

We have reached out to Arreguin’s office about his possible interactions and involvement with BAMN. We will update this story if a response is provided.

Chinese Navy Possibly Testing Missiles Near North Korea

We Are Change

Many sources are reporting that China is testing their missiles on a ship that is located near North Korea. Although there is seemingly no specific mention of this on a major Chinese media site, these claims are backed up with a video, which shows Chinese troops using naval weapons. However, it is difficult to confirm the validity of this footage, or if it is near North Korea.

When you search through any of the major Chinese media outlets, Xinhua, CCTV, or People’s Daily, this story is seemingly missing, but this does not necessarily mean the story isn’t true in a world of military secrets. Recently, China’s armed forces have made an important announcement, as reported by all three main Chinese media outlets.

All branches of China’s military have recently pledged to obey Party leadership to “enhance combat readiness and build an indestructible army.” As reported by Xinhua, the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) is undergoing a “major military reshuffle” and is experiencing a period of reform as the future of the Korean peninsula is questionable.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lu Kang was recently quoted in Xinhua to express that the PLA’s intent is not to spark a war, but rather to protect the peace in the Korean peninsula, according to Kang:

“China is committed to denuclearizing the Korean Peninsula, maintaining peace and stability there, and resolving problems through dialogue and consultation. China’s stance on this is unswerving.”

Kang also stated that China firmly opposes any words and actions that serve to increase the hostilities in the region. China is reportedly “seriously concerned” about the nuclear development in North Korea.

An article from People’s Daily expresses doubt that any U.S. attack could effectively destroy all North Korean nuclear capabilities before a retaliatory nuclear strike would occur, and asserts that the USA should instead be using diplomacy rather than flexing their military might, saying that “talks are the only way to resolve the issue.”

U.S. officials harbor a different opinion, with Secretary of State Rex Tillerson saying that “diplomatic and other efforts” with North Korea have failed. Vice President Mike Pence also recently stated amidst a trip to the Korean peninsula that the time of “strategic patience” is over, as Trump ordered an Armada to Korea, but this armada has since taken a rather long detour and it is unclear if it is headed towards North Korea after all.

The Top 7 Reasons Marine Le Pen Is A Globalist-Stomping Bad Ass

We Are Change

Marine Le Pen, left, and her niece Marion Le Pen

With the French presidential election this weekend, the people of France are being offered a true choice.

On one side, the globalist backed banker Emmanuel Macron will ensure the wishes of the world elite continue taking their toll on France.

On the other side, Marine Le Pen is promising an independent France the likes of which have not been seen in decades.

Here are the top 7 reasons Marine Le Pen is a globalist-stomping bad ass, and a nightmare for the likes of George Soros and the Rothschilds.

1. No, she won’t wear that hijab. In February, Le Pen was scheduled to meet with the Grand Mufti of Lebanon. At the meeting, Le Pen was told to wear a headscarf in order to meet with the mufti. She refused and walked out.

“I met the grand mufti of Al-Azhar,” Le Pen said. “The highest Sunni authority didn’t have this requirement, but it doesn’t matter. You can pass on my respects to the grand mufti, but I will not cover myself up.”

Score one for women’s rights.

2. Le Pen has promised to given Julian Assange and Edward Snowden asylum in France. While U.S. authorities are threatening to bring charges against Assange, Le Pen has promised asylum for the Wikileaks founder Assange and the NSA whistleblower Snowden.

3. She called out the BBC for trying to start World War 3. In an interview with the fearmongering BBC, Le Pen outright stated, ““You want war at all costs! What is your problem? You want to go to war! Do you like war? You want conflicts – you want us to start World War Three!”

The globalist controlled BBC, like its mainstream media counterparts in the U.S., has been pushing for war with Russia, and casting Vladimir Putin as a bogeyman that must be annihilated.

“At the moment no one wants to go to war with anyone. I’m happy to go into all the hypotheses, but no one is going to war with anyone – no one wants to go to war with anyone else,” Le Pen said. “There was a territorial conflict with Ukraine – these things happen. Now it has to be resolved diplomatically, and I think France’s voice has weight as long as France is France, not a region of the EU…Honestly, if you’re trying to say that Russia is a military danger to European countries, I think you’re mistaken in your analysis.”

4. Le Pen called out Trump for his embrace of NATO and attack on Syria. When Donald Trump ran on a non-interventionist foreign policy and called NATO “obsolete,” peace lovers around the world took notice. When Trump turned around and embraced NATO, Le Pen called him out.

“Undeniably he is in contradiction with the commitments he had made,” Le Pen said. “I am coherent, I don’t change my mind in a few days. He had said he would not be the policeman of the world, that he would be the president of the United States and would not be the policeman of the world, but it seems today that he has changed his mind.”

When Trump sent Tomahawk missiles into Syria after what was likely a false flag attack done by ISIS, Le Pen questioned the attack, asking “Is it too much to ask that we wait for the results of an independent international investigation before carrying out a strike like this in Syria?”

5. Le Pen promised to take France out of the EU and NATO. Le Pen has vowed to bring Brexit to France.

“Frexit will be a part of my policy,” Le Pen said in an interview. “The people must have the opportunity to vote for the liberation from slavery and blackmail imposed by technocrats in Brussels to return sovereignty to the country.”

6. The unchecked migration to France will be curbed under Le Pen. There have been 21 deadly terrorist attacks by radical Islamists in France since the Charlie Hebdo massacre alone – resulting in 238 deaths. While many Muslims are peaceful, the current wave of migrants to Europe is causing astronomical levels of violence, rape, and death.

This import of migrants that despise the West was exposed as part of George Soros’s plan for a world government.

France has been in a state of emergency for since 2015, and Le Pen promises to fix the situation with policies designed to protect the French people.

7. Le Pen has helped her niece Marion Le Pen become another leading French freedom fighter.

In a political landscape devoid of strong independent leaders, Le Pen has helped her 27-year-old niece Marion Le Pen rise to the national stage. Marion Le Pen could lead a parliamentary group of Front National MPs if they are voted in following the French presidential election. The younger Le Pen said, “Why not be in charge of a parliamentary group?”

Thanks to Marine Le Pen, France could wrest control of it’s executive and legislative branches in one fell swoop.

Don’t bet against her – a leading analyst that predicted Trump’s rise is betting on Le Pen.

Viva La France!

The Australian Housing Bubble Is Ready To Burst! – Home Prices Skyrocket To 7 Year High

We Are Change

Recently, I spoke with author and economic analyst John Sneisen about the alarming rate at which Australian home prices are rising as the real estate bubble proves to be more volatile than ever.
Home prices in Australia have risen the most in 7 years as massive market manipulation takes place forcing even the middle class to rent rather than buy homes.
The average home values in capital cities surged 12.9% in March alone.
The annual home value growth in Sydney, Australia was 19%. This is a startling development. Especially when you compare the housing bubble in Australia to past housing bubble bursts around the world and of course the aftermath.

See the full report here:


In the video above, John Sneisen went into the interest rates, inflation, market manipulation and the continued corrupt use of Credit Default Swaps and Collateralized Debt Obligations as banks offer packages with a couple of good deals mixed in with a huge amount of terrible deals in an attempt to rid themselves of possible future problems while pawning them off on uneducated, glassy eyed investors and buyers.
As John points out, your house is not an asset. Yes, you can invest in realty and can be quite successful with it, but your home as it is, is not an asset and people run into a lot of trouble believing such misinformation.

In a time when almost every market in the world has become artificial under the state’s manipulation, these bubbles are popping up everywhere. In the past years, we’ve reported on the expansive, volatile housing bubbles in the United Kingdom, China, Toronto and Vancouver Canada as well. All of these places show heavy market manipulation which cuts out true demand and causes the possibility of horrifying crashes, something that can ruin so many lives and needs to be taken seriously and analyzed properly.

So in the above video, John breaks down what’s happening in the Australian housing market, what it means and what individuals can do to avoid the burst.

Stay tuned as we continue to follow this story as it develops, as it no doubt will.

Senator Feinstein Endorses War in Syria: Assad “Should Be Ousted From Office”

We Are Change

Longtime U.S. Senator Diane Feinstein held a town hall in Los Angeles yesterday where she called for a quick end to the Syrian crisis, also stating that Assad “should be ousted from office,” according to journalist Michael Tracey who was at the event.

Tracey listened in on Feinstein’s town hall, where the Senator discussed the situation in Syria, among other topics. She asserted that an aggressive role was necessary in Syria, stating: “the time has come to end it… we have to take a more aggressive role.”

She also discussed Bernie Sanders’ medicare bill, asserting that it is a government “takeover” of healthcare, and furthermore reassured the frantic voters worried the new Red Scare that that the Senate is working to find the “witting agents of Russia” who are in the United States, according to Tracey.

Feinstein Overtly Shows Ignorance To The U.S. Constitution

Feinstein previously made similar inaccurate statements earlier this week at another town hall in San Francisco, where she claimed that Assad has “participated in the killing of a half million of his own people.” With the latest chemical attack being questioned, putting the blame on Assad for an estimated number of deaths there is premature. She later brought up the recent airstrike in Syria ordered by President Trump, which immediately attracted boos from the crowd.

One man in the crowd particularly irritated her. She responded to his heated response to the Syrian airstrike by asserting: “if you believe you know more than I do about it, then you go right ahead, that’s fine with me… but if you want me to speak you’re going to have to let me speak.”

She then claimed “under our Constitution the president has 60 days to take a military action without the approval of Congress, so this President now needs to put together a strategy and come to the Congress before he does anything else, with a strategy, and if he’s asking for a resolution to use military force to do that.”

Contrary to what Feinstein says, there is no such clause in the U.S. Constitution. The War Powers Resolution – likely what Feinstein refers to – is a separate piece of legislation and not an amendment to the U.S. Constitution in any way. As a longtime Senator, this verbal mistake must be humiliating.

According to the U.S. Constitution Article 1 Section 8, only Congress has the authority to declare war. An act of war is essentially the same as a declaration of war throughout history and according to the legal definition. The last time the U.S. officially declared war was during WWII.

Feinstein has received large campaign contributions from Northrop Grumman, a military weapons manufacturer that receives massive contracts from the U.S. government.

Reports: Around 300 U.S. Marines Deployed To Afghanistan

We Are Change

The Marine Times is reporting that there are 300 U.S. Marines on their way to Afghanistan to “help Afghan troops stop the Taliban from swallowing more of the hard-fought territory for which so many Marines have bled and died.”

According to an Associated Press report last month, there are already around 8,400 troops currently stationed in Afghanistan. This recent troop movement comes after Gen. John W. Nicholson requested a “few thousand” more soldiers to Afghanistan.

The Marine Times claims that this is the largest Marine deployment to Afghanistan since 2014, marking increased levels of conflict in the country with more U.S. troops under fire. The new troops will reportedly be replacing the Army’s Task Force Forge, and will remain in the country for a 9-month tour.

The military newspaper furthermore states that “Helmand province is becoming increasingly dangerous for U.S. troops. In March, three American soldiers were shot at an Afghan military base in an apparent insider attack and in February, a Special Forces soldier was severely wounded in Sangin”

The marines are expected to train the Afghan National Army and police in marksmanship, indirect fire, small-unit tactics, and other skills. Col. Matthew Reid elaborated further, telling the Marine Times:

“Make no mistake, though we are no longer in a combat role in Afghanistan, it is still a combat environment… As Marines, we train and deploy with a combat mindset.”

Recent Violence In Afghanistan

Even though it appears that sources from the military are painting this development as one which only serves as a training mission for Afghanistan soldiers, it doesn’t explain the fact why a General would request a “few thousand” more soldiers or why the bombing campaign has reached new heights. As the Associated Press report on this story illustrates, the General requested the soldiers in an effort to “help break the stalemate in the war-torn country.”

The conflict in Afghanistan could be reaching new levels as the U.S. recently detonated a Massive Ordinance Air Blast bomb there. Although not as powerful as a nuclear bomb, it was the largest non-nuclear bomb used by U.S. military in combat throughout the nation’s extensive military history.

[RELATED: U.S. Drops ‘Mother of all Bombs’ In Afghanistan]

If we study historical trends of troop numbers, we can see that there was once over 100,000 troops in Afghanistan. If troops gradually come out of a country historically following a conflict, this move could be solely to provide the framework for a switch of military power in the country back to the Afghanistan government, as reported by the Marine Times.

However, given the unpredictable nature of the Trump administration’s military policy, nothing can be assumed or expected as of now.
