Dec 2014

It is heartbreaking finding out what has been hidden, but I still like knowing the truth no matter how terrible it is.

After getting over the initial shock and betrayal I became determined to learn all I can.

I have been doing research since 2008.

I am now mentoring my 41 year old niece on this journey of U.S. historical truth.

The internet is an awesome tool !!!!!!!!

She can view the actual documents, listen to lectures, read independent news sources, etc.

She just added the Democracy Now app to her cell phone.

Link TV is a treasure trove of knowledge and truth.

Have a great Sunday.
