Now that the EU won against Google, any one with a simple blog, like here on Blogger, is required to suddenly understand all the legal ramifications and legal language.

Of course, Google just dumped this on bloggers with nothing but confusing messages of how to notify you of their cookies you already knew existed. Look below for the links to Google of all their "privacy" notices and other goodies. I'm in the process of figuring out how to install cookie consent notices on all my 26 blogs so this page is the starter for cookies notification.

We all get followed all over the web and reported back to the NSA and other intelligence agencies, collecting data globally. Use Opera as a free and excellent browser (from Germany) for no reporting at least to the NSA. Use duckduckgo as your search engine instead of Google or Bing because it comes out of The Netherlands and they do not report your browsing data.

Well, friends, consider yourself "cookie" notified. Surf the web wisely and don't let these annoying Big Business types spoil your fun.

A Truth Journal: End Ukraine Occupation: Force Money Out Of Russia By Defying Industrialists

A Truth Journal: End Ukraine Occupation: Force Money Out Of Russia By Defying Industrialists: From Denny: Europe's military and EU politicians, most notably Germany, are making the very same mistakes that were made during the lead up to World War Two: appeasement of a world bully hell bent on expansionism as a strategy for land grabs and natural resource hoarding.

The same propaganda lies are employed in this generation as previously: "Oh, our ethnic population in foreign lands need us to come rescue them from their host countries." The names of the villains have changed but the strategy and ruthlessness remain the same. In this generation, instead of Germany on the march, it's Russia that is on the march across Europe, claiming to first make a short stop and "rescue" ethnic Russians in former Soviet satellite countries.

Once Putin is done conquering his nearest - and very weak - neighbors he plans to move across all of Europe. He's gambling that NATO is too weak and indecisive to oppose him. Will NATO prove him right in his assessment? Stay tuned. Right now, countries like Germany, France, the UK and Italy are too slow to react to Putin's aggression, comfortable in the false belief they will not ever be attacked because they are trading partners and of great benefit to him. Wake up, Europe, and run from your comfort zone. "Why trade with a country when Russia can outright own them?" is Putin's thinking right now...

A Truth Journal: President Obama: Can I Please Use My Drone to Kill a U. S. Citizen Overseas?

A Truth Journal: President Obama: Can I Please Use My Drone to Kill a U. S. Citizen Overseas?: From Denny: Are you ready for the latest weird out of this White House that popped like an ugly zit today?

Apparently, according to "them" (intelligence community [IC], Pentagon, White House), there is a U. S. citizen who is a member of Al-Qaeda. They claim he is planning attacks on U. S. targets overseas and they want to kill him using a drone.

Enter President Obama's supposed new stricter targeting guidelines the government claims are hobbling their efforts to kill said U. S. citizen who they claim is a terrorist. Now, mind you, has the guy had a trial? Nope...

A Truth Journal: Govt Shutdown Shutstorm 2013: Late Nite Jokes Display Congress' Malfeasance In Office:

From Denny: Have you been enjoying the Washington soap opera lately - known as The Government Shutdown? The word is that sometime tonight Speaker Boehner will finally do his job and allow the full House to vote on the bill to end this idiot shutdown and reopen the government.

Of course, there are conservative groups still urging members to vote against raising the country's debt ceiling to avoid default. Those same groups also don't want the government reopened. No one said groups like Club For Growth were smart enough to understand the global implications of such a screamingly stupid strategy...

A Truth Journal: Obama And DOJ Harassing 3 Million Voters - and Journalists - With New Tactic

Señalización de lugar de votación en Californi...

A Truth Journal: Obama And DOJ Harassing 3 Million Voters - and Journalists - With New Tactic: From Denny: As an Independent and a liberal I rarely take the Louisiana newspapers seriously. Most of their red state conclusions from the news are flawed thinking at best and so opinionated the facts get lost in the shuffle. Most, like my Baton Rouge paper, The Advocate, are too busy advancing the promotion of scare tactics from the Republican propaganda machine.

However, the facts remain to be seen clearly from the latest DOJ's suspect and downright sinister wrongdoing. You know it's really bad when I finally write about it. The DOJ is claiming their need for private information of almost 3 million Louisiana voters - and thousands of journalists in that database - as necessary to protect the voting rights of the possibly disenfranchised, primarily African-Americans and Hispanics. And what ever happened to my rights: my civil rights, my constitutional right to vote unhindered, both as a journalist and as a liberal voter?

The rights of the many are getting trampled in the aggressive effort "claiming" to protect the rights of the few. It is becoming more and more evident the DOJ actions are not truly about helping disenfranchised voters but something else...

A Truth Journal: Daily Show Comic John Oliver Interviews Sen. Gillibrand: Fight To Fix Military Sexual Abuse And More

A Truth Journal: Daily Show Comic John Oliver Interviews Sen. Gillibrand: Fight To Fix Military Sexual Abuse And More: 4 videos. From Denny: Did you know that the Daily Show's comic, John Oliver, is an American citizen? Did you know his wife is career military?

You can easily guess who it was who suggested he interview Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand in her efforts to curb the Pentagon's so-called leadership values, refusing to give up even an ounce of command authority no matter how wide-sweeping and perverted is their corruption. But then, that's the point, isn't it, to be able to have the authority necessary to cover-up that corruption and law-breaking.

In short, the Pentagon wants to do what they want, when they want and how they want without any real oversight or any consequences. It's obvious those in Congress who should be exercising oversight are too busy with their fund-raising and insider trading to take the time to hold the Pentagon's feet to the fire and get those sexual assault and rape cases properly prosecuted.

That attitude has resulted in a rape culture that is at epidemic proportions in the U.S. military. While it's clear it's acceptable to the highest levels of the military command, like Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dempsey, it isn't acceptable or palatable to the rest of the country or women in general.

A Truth Journal: NSA Leak Satire: If You Really Believe U.S. Govt Then Awesome Investment Opportunities Available

A Truth Journal: NSA Leak Satire: If You Really Believe U.S. Govt Then Awesome Investment Opportunities Available: From Denny: Does anyone really believe the U.S. government and the President about this NSA leak? No, of course not.

Are the polls running in favor of NSA leaker Edward Snowden labeled as a whistleblower rather than a traitor? Yes, the American public really is smarter than a fifth grader though it appears the military, intelligence community (IC), Justice Department, Congress and the President cannot match wits with the American public.

So, in that vein, do I have several investment opportunities for the bone-head stupid and the gullible in our government. They do so love to participate in the game of insider trading, coming to Washington as paupers when first elected and leaving just a few years later as millionaires. My own Louisiana Republican Gov. Bobby Jindal did just that when he went to Washington as a Congressman. Why not follow his corrupt example? Capitalism careening out of control is alive and well, thriving in Washington, D.C.

Listed in order of greatest investment returns where you can gobble up some serious jack:

A Truth Journal: NSA Leak Funny: White House, Justice Dept Are Dumb and Dumber Mishandling Case

Edward Snowden

A Truth Journal: NSA Leak Funny: White House, Justice Dept Are Dumb and Dumber Mishandling Case: From Denny: This NSA Leak case is one real life raucous comedy. A comic could not ask for better material so readily available in the news, especially of how inept the entire United States government and Justice Department look to the world.

What President Obama has accomplished is to unite the entire world against the United States in their fury of getting spied upon and so thoroughly publicly embarrassed. Nice going, guys.

All you had to do was refuse to prosecute Snowden and then proceed to bring him in from the cold early in this drama, placing him elsewhere inside the government in a position better suited to his abilities where he really could protect the public's interests. Instead, President Obama chooses the heavy-handed approach that demanded Snowden remain out of grasp for his own physical safety.

A Truth Journal: Obama Legacy At Risk? Thuggish Justice Dept Needs Reform?

Seal of the United States Department of Justice

A Truth Journal: Obama Legacy At Risk? Thuggish Justice Dept Needs Reform?: From Denny: It's no wonder there now exist 300 million guns owned in America since terrorism struck in 2001. People are afraid of outside terrorists, desperate to protect themselves and their families.

Americans now feel threatened by and afraid of their own government. Just check out the latest Pew Research poll where the majority feel the federal government threatens their personal rights.

Do they have good cause since the erosion of individual rights, freedoms, civil rights and privacy taken away under the last two administrations, courtesy of the Justice Department, all because of the War on Terror?

It's the general perception in America that our Justice Department is heavy-handed in its prosecution of cases. OK, the perception is that it persecutes people, not prosecutes. Clearly, there needs to be a top-down review from an outside consultant, preferably a team of investigators.

The Social Poets: WTF? DOJ Attorney Threatens Reporter At Public Hearing?

(Photo credit: Wikipedia)

The Social Poets: WTF? DOJ Attorney Threatens Reporter At Public Hearing?: From Denny: Turns out that President Obama's "transparency in government" does not seem to apply to the Department of Justice (DOJ) and at a public hearing. Talk about obnoxious and a denial of the freedom of the press. A newspaper reporter from The Daily Iberian was actually denied his civil rights - and publicly by a DOJ attorney at a public meeting.

This is downright bizarre. Since when does the DOJ have the right to deny a reporter to record, take notes or quote one of their attorneys who is making public comments at a public hearing? That is exactly what happened. Who died and made the DOJ God? The arrogant attorney's name is Rachel Hranitzky and this happened in New Orleans, Louisiana.

The Social Poets: John Edwards: DOJ Admits His Innocence, Drops Charges

The Social Poets: John Edwards: DOJ Admits His Innocence, Drops Charges: From Denny: The word is with several investigations launched - and from many different quarters - breathing down their necks, the DOJ decided to clear their desk and end the political vendetta against former Senator John Edwards. Are they trying to bury any evidence that would place them in danger of being put in jail for witness and jury tampering?

Law experts all believed it would be months or a couple of years before Edwards could breathe a sigh of relief, anticipating whether or not the DOJ would file a second trial against him after the mistrial on five counts but an acquittal on the major count.

After all, this is one seriously vicious political year and Obama must turn his attention away from savaging fellow Democrats to savaging his contender, Romney. Romney sure won't spare Obama any slack on the vicious front. He's a Republican with truckloads of cash suddenly pouring in from Wall Street to help deluge Obama with negative ads. Democrat donors are fed up with the Obama-Axelrod coalition and the money is just not there for his reelection.

The Social Poets: John Edwards Trial: Free At Last! Edwards Wins New Life

Four Trials by John Edwards (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

The Social Poets: John Edwards Trial: Free At Last! Edwards Wins New Life: From Denny: After nine days of deliberations, the jury found John Edwards not guilty on the central count, count three. The jury found Edwards not guilty of receiving illegal campaign contributions.

There is no verdict on the other five counts because the 12-person jury could not come to a unanimous decision as is required under federal criminal law. So, the judge was forced to declare a mistrial.

What was interesting today is how the judge received a note from the jury of the acquittal on one count, though she did not announce which way the verdict went. Instead, she and the prosecutors insisted that the jury go back and reconsider changing their positions and keep working on all the counts. Did the judge not like the acquittal on the one count and wanted the jury to change it?

The jury sent a second note about an hour later with the fact they were deadlocked for a unanimous decision on the remaining five counts under consideration. Read that as a frustrated jury saying, "Screw you, judge, we're done and are going home."

GREENSBORO, NC - MAY 25: Former Democratic presidential candidate and former U.S. Senator John Edwards (D-NC) (4th L) leaves a federal courthouse with his parents Bobbie (3rd L) and Wallace Edwards (L) at the end of the day of May 25, 2012 in Greensboro, North Carolina. The jury of the John Edwards trial has wrapped up its sixth day of deliberations without reaching to a verdict. (Image credit: Getty Images via @daylife)

The Social Poets: John Edwards Trial: Dirty Judge Seeks Mistrial?: From Denny: Why would a judge abruptly stop jury deliberations as Judge Catherine Eagles did last week early Friday morning? Have the U.S. Marshals guarding the jury been passing on information to the federal prosecutors and the judge about which way the jury is leaning for or against Edwards?

With the Political Fix Is In Crowd leaning on the judge and the prosecutors to get guilty verdicts and bury Edwards, are the prosecutors and the judge motivated to declare this trial a mistrial? It would appear they are strongly motivated at this point to save their careers since they are no longer confident they can deliver a conviction.

After three days of jury deliberations, and the particular requests from the jury, especially in regard to the Mellon exhibits and transcript testimony, it would appear the jury smells a rat. The judge denied the Mellon transcript testimony and ordered the jury to rely upon their memories. That's odd. Since when does a judge deny a jury the trial testimony they have just heard? How is she trying to influence the jury?

The Social Poets: John Edwards Trial: Bizarre Alternate Jury Antics

Four Trials by John Edwards (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

The Social Poets: John Edwards Trial: Bizarre Alternate Jury Antics: From Denny: For the past couple of days the four alternate jurors have been acting out in the courtroom during the wait for the jury deliberation. Talk about strange.

Yesterday, the four alternate jurors all wore yellow shirts in solidarity. Solidarity for what? Today they all wore red. Just what are these people up to and who paid them to do it - and why now?

The past couple of days there has been more odd behavior. Of the four jurors, three are men and one is a woman. The woman has been seen giggling and tittering when entering the courtroom, flirtatious with Edwards constantly.

Talk about inappropriate. Why has the judge not dismissed this woman? Why is this alternate juror just now doing this after weeks of testimony? What's going on here?

The Social Poets: John Edwards Trial: Kangaroo Court Seeks To Direct Jury Conviction: From Denny: Here's just a small snippet of how this Kangaroo Court breaks it down to cover their asses, both the judge's and the jury's should they enjoy convicting this man.

The judge is first baffling the jury with so much contradictory bullshit as to confuse and frustrate them into finding Edwards guilty out of sheer exasperation. Judge Catherine Eagles basically informs the jury to find a way to hang Edwards and the court will give them cover.

Oh, and did I mention that the government never did specify where said crimes were committed and was not even sure when it was supposed to have happened? How can you bring a case when you can't even nail down the specifics? You want to send a man to jail for 30 years without any direct proof of said conspiracy?
