If an independent voice is important to you, please support Intrepid Report

We are among the last of the truly independent voices. Unlike the controlled opposition, a.k.a. the gatekeepers, Intrepid Report receives no funding from foundations, corporations or sugar daddies/mommies. We have even eschewed becoming a non-profit corporation to avoid running afoul of IRS regulations on what we publish. All we have is you, our readers, to keep us going. Continue reading

WE’RE BACK!!

First of all, I want to thank all the well-wishers for their support and understanding during our time of tribulation Continue reading

Why we had to temporarily suspended publication

My husband suffered a respiratory infection and wound up in the hospital on Feb. 7 and I nearly lost him on Feb. 13. He’s home now and doing remarkably well but my time is going into tending to him, therefore, I have had to temporarily suspend publication of Intrepid Report. Continue reading

If voters truly had enough, why such a schizophrenic outcome?

Sorry to dampen the celebrations but what have Americans learned from Tuesday’s elections? Continue reading

D-Day is here or is it?

This is the day Americans are supposed to “elect” a president and, despite the naysayers who call the inconvenient truth about election thefts “conspiracy theory,” the Big Money Masters behind the curtain will determine the winner: the awesomely evil Barack Obama or the supremely evil Mitt Romney, i.e., if we don’t again have to suffer months of limbo until the decision winds up in the hands of the US Supreme Court.

Americans suffer from Charlie Brown syndrome

Followers of the comic strip Peanuts know that every fall Lucy would con Charlie Brown into kicking the football by promising she would hold it. Falling for her promise every time, ol’ Charlie Brown would run at the ball and, as he lifted his foot to kick it, Lucy would pull it away and Charlie Brown would wind up splat on the ground.

Intrepid Report is back up and running, following a hardware failure

The curious timing of the anti-Islam video

Isn’t interesting that right before the US presidential election, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu champing at the bit to involve the US in a war against Iran over its nuclear program, along comes an anti-Islam video, which sat practically unnoticed on the web until an Arabic translation was added, that has set off riots and mayhem in some 20 Muslim majority countries in condemnation of the US? Continue reading

Intrepid Report needs your support

Imagine, George Zimmerman, the accused murderer of Trayvon Martin, has thus far raised nearly $250,000 in donations for his legal defense and living expenses while Intrepid Report struggles to raise $25,000 a year. What is wrong with that picture? Continue reading

We need your help

Washington, the corporations, the banksters and their cohorts would be gleeful if Intrepid Report would go away — another thorn out of their sides. For nearly 14 years, though, we’ve hung on, first as Online Journal and now Intrepid Report, thanks to the support of our readers. But as the economy tanked, so did donations and now we’re running on fumes. To put it bluntly, we need your help. Continue reading

A personal medical odyssey

The great election charade

Americans, whether in large numbers or small, will dutifully march to the polls in November and the majority will cast ballots for either the candidate from Column A or the candidate from Column B. If the majority feel they cast their votes for the Column A candidate and the Column B candidate is declared the winner, they will be stunned, as they were in 2000 and 2004. Continue reading

By signing the NDAA, Obama turned the US into a police state

President Obama, while vacationing in Hawaii, sneakily used last Saturday (when few would notice) to sign the NDAA that gives him the power to order anyone, including US citizens, arrested without charge, turned over to the military and imprisoned indefinitely without a trial or recourse to the courts. Continue reading

We suffered an equipment failure Sunday

Our three-year old modem/router chose New Year’s Day to die, leaving us no way to connect to the Internet, thusly, putting us two days behind in posting new articles. Continue reading

A class society, you say?

Unlike Britain that has a class society—top dog class (the Royals), upper class, middle class and lower class—in which its citizens are stuck, for the most part, in whichever station they are born—America has depicted itself as a classless society. Until now, that is. Continue reading

We are living in the Twilight Zone

With all that is going on around, above and below us, it conjures up visions of evils past and evils current. Continue reading
