FPR Blog 76: Anon's 30 Day War on Banks. #OpIcarus Mission Accomplishments.

Op Icarus (#OpIcarus) is an Anonymous hacking operation.

Don't let the word hacking pressure or scare you into judging a book by its title.

Icarus and the other Anons that have hooked up with, Ghost Squad (#GhostSquad) are far from evil-doers.

Wait. Let me rephrase. They do evil shit to evil people, but just online.

They don't physically harm anyone they just delete them or make their online lives a living hell.

Think Dexter, but the online version.

FPR Blog 75: The Truth About the 2016 Presidential Election.

The Truth About the 2016 Election

The truth is that this thing's a sham...

I’m sure you’ve heard people say that our election process is rigged. But, never has it been so egregiously blatant as the 2016 presidential election.

Republicans are still trying to move Donald Trump out of the race even though he's the only candidate left.

FPR Blog 74: Panama Papers. Oh Boy!

What can I say about this that hasn’t already been said?

Oh, Wait. I know…

NOOOOOOOO REALLY!?

How this is a surprise to anyone is beyond me.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m cool with the leak. I’m a huge believer in whistleblowers and hackers releasing information that throw dirty politicians under the bus.

I just don’t understand the shock.

I also don’t understand the mainstream media’s coverage on this.

FPR Blog 73: OverWorked, Under-Paid and Unappreciated. Story of an Employee.

People are working over 50 to 60 hours a week on average.

I’m not speaking of people who run their own business or love what they do. An equation with those two factors equals a labor of love. This means it’s not a job, it’s a lifestyle.

I’m speaking of those who do not enjoy what they do. Even those who might like their job don’t want to waste their life on it.

Working hard does not entail 60 plus hour work weeks. That’s just an abuse of one’s work ethics.

That person who never says “no” or “I can’t” or “won’t” is usually the one you see come early and stay late.

Those people that will come in on Sundays because they’ve been “asked” to by their bosses aren’t saying yes because they love the company. They are saying yes because they’re afraid to lose their jobs.

FPR Blog 72: So, There's More Than One Phone the FBI Wants to Crack.

I only had one question as soon as I heard that the FBI couldn’t decrypt an iPhone. What the hell does our tax money go to? 

This isn’t just the FBI, these are multiple agencies pulling their resources together.

This was a horrific act and it seems like an honest breach of privacy to find out what’s on their phone.

FPR Blog 71: Profiling People on Twitter. A Questionable New Government Project.

What is our government up to these days?

In the past, United States agencies have been involved in many illegal acts. 

The clandestine community has had its fair share of scandals. 

Allowing drug and gun trafficking to fund secret wars. 

Economic hitmen to overthrow foreign leaders.

These agencies do not believe in the right to privacy, warrants, courts or our constitution.

How much farther can they go in this day and age?

FPR Blog 70: Indian Point, Lies we're Fed and the Resistance a Corrupt System.

I’ve never considered myself a news writer and I’m certainly no journalist…

I’ve never “faked it till I made it” or tried carrying myself as one. Though I’ve written close to a thousand blogs on a vast variety of topics, that doesn’t make me anything more than a blogger.

I’ve always been ok with that. I’ve never tried to write for anyone else. Again, I don’t think much of myself and have way too much respect for the people who go out there to report on important, issues that we need to know about.

Unfortunately, the news is just another form of entertainment via drama, horror, and bad comedy.

FPR Blog 69: Wikileaks is not done with the NSA just yet.

Julian Assange took to Wikileaks to reveal his latest leak, the NSA spy program.

You might be thinking this is old news, and you would be correct in thinking so. But, do you ever believe what the government tells you to be completely honest?

Do you believe that they are transparent when assigning a fall guy?

FPR Blog 68: So we started a Sound Cloud Account. Explanation inside.

Why the hell not. It can't hurt when trying to reach new people.

Besides this gives me a great opportunity to refresh an old blog.

JUST KIDDING. Well, kind of...

Last time I did a little weak online "press release". Only press release about it was the google docs format I used to write it.

This isn't that.

It's a chance to promote what I think is a good project.

So, here goes...

By the way, this blog is for anyone who most likely have never heard of this crap.

FPR Blog 67: Living and Not Liking What You're Learning

Reality. What a kick in the balls…

I have to say, no matter how crazy it sounds, I sometimes wonder if this is all real.

Can this life really be so bleak? Is it just a sad truth that society always disappoints? Friends turn out to be anything but. Loyalty is punished not rewarded.

I still don’t want to believe it, but the learning part of living is showing me that there isn't much in the way of kindness in this society. And that begins to change you.

I’ve been trying to understand the why, but I’m asking the wrong question to something I don’t even want the answer to.

FPR Blog 66: Disappointments.

Disappointment comes in all forms.

It can come in the form of someone you trust letting you down. It can be in the form of a parent or a child. It can come from a job in the form of a boss or a co-worker.

You may think the worst is when it comes in the form of a broken heart by the one you love.

No matter what disappoints us in our life it all feels the same; pretty shitty.

The worst isn’t your love leaving you. It’s not even being let down by a parent. 

The worst disappointments for me come from me.

FPR Blog 65: Who, What and Why? Hello Friend.

It's been a long time since I've blogged. I've had what I call bloggers block. I don't consider myself a writer, so writers block doesn't apply to me.

When I started this project I didn't necessarily know what I wanted to do with it. I guess I was just being a child who couldn't let go of the blanky he's had since he was a baby.

It had been ten years of the previous project (fjs) and I had enough of it. I wasn't following up on anything. I wasn't broadcasting live anymore and I sure as hell wasn't writing.

So, when it was time to buy another decade of fjs I decided not to.

Unfortunately, I'm too crazy to sit still and not be creative. So not two days later I was birthing a new project. I knew I didn't want to do anything that involved the real world, so my only option was online radio, again.

FPR Blog 64: How do we know if we're in control?

How do we know if we're in control?


Are we just making the best of what comes at us, and that's it?

Constantly trying to pick between two shifty options.

Coke or Pepsi, McDonalds or Burger King, Hyundai or Honda.

It seems to all be the same blur. Just out of focus enough to give us the illusion of choice.

FPR Blog 63: Greedy HIV Drug CEO Has Been Arrested For Fraud.

                                                                                                                                   Update Blog 47
Remember this guy? 

Whether you do or don't, you'll want to read this because justice might just be served.

Martin Shkreli is the drug maker CEO who raised HIV medication from 13 dollars to 700. It sucked, it angered, but it still didn't matter.

Well, it looks like karma just bit him in the ass because the FBI has just confirmed that Martin Shkreli has been arrested.

FPR Blog 62: Factory Farms and the System That Makes it Possible.

There is more information about GMOs on the net than porn...



Well, maybe not more than porn, but there is more info on GMOs out now than ever before. Celebrities have even gotten behind the anti-GMO movement. Using their fortune, fame and influence some have even made it up to capitol hill.



So why isn't the media covering it?

FPR Blog 61: Owners To Cut Costs From New Wage Hike Rule With Mandatory Layoffs & Part Time Work.

Before I get into statistics, compensation, slave work, lack of care for health, and 20-minute breaks for a 14-hour shift, allow me to inform the New York Government that this mandatory wage hike is not going to pan out as Governor Cuomo expected or at least hoped.

A minimum wage hike of $2.50 cents has to be met by restaurants now…

Many might not know that minimum wage has gone up from $5.00 an hour to $9.00 in the last 3 years. It was about time, considering minimum wage stayed at 5 dollars for over ten years.

There was a catch, though… 

FPR Blog 60: 3 Important Events Happened While You were Distracted by Starbucks Cups.

You would think being sick would mean you have more time to pay attention to the world around you.

I like to do the opposite. I unplug, veg, rest and watch enormous amounts of mindless television.

Well after 3 days of working from my bed, I decided to plug back in just to wish I had a coma instead of a cold.

I snap out of reality to find that people are beyond upset over Starbucks serving coffee in red cups instead of one's dawning Christmas propaganda.

FPR Blog 59: Professional Sports Teams Cashing Our Taxes to Show Support for Wars.

To say war is not pretty is, a cliched understatement. War his pretty horrific.

We think we understand because we see images of war-torn desert cities on television. We may say, “oh my god that’s horrible”. 

Most get angry that these wars are costing us too much money. Others will say, "we need to mind our business and stop being the world’s judge, jury, and executioner". 

And, the rest, the rest say we should wipe everyone out.

FPR Blog 58: Rappelling off the Nosebleed Seats, The only way to get the Message Out.

I was chatting with a friend today and I was saying that if we could find a way to jack access and control a media satellite for at least 3 minutes, we would be able to reach a lot of people and make a huge difference in our world.

We can grab everyone's complete attention, especially when they flip the channel to find the same thing broadcasting.

FPR Blog 57: Undercover Police Officer gets a Huge Dose of Reality.

I get a lot of news in a week. Emails, tags, posts and notifications from twenty or so news sources. 


I get mainstream nonsense, underground stories, conspiracies, and reliable independent news sites. 


By the way, I did not include the twitter, tumbler or Instagram notifications.

Much of the news I receive is horrible and depressing. And, it is not in the traditional way.
