Christian policeman and military vet tells of killing a pod of Bigfoot creatures
Host Brenton Sawin
"Michael," not his real name, gives a first hand account of Sasquatches he was ordered to kill while on active duty for the U.S. government running a security detail for police removing booby trapped marijuana crops.
The CDC (Center for Disease Control), MIB (men in black), DEA, MP (military police), local state troopers, game wardens, and other governmental agencies know all about it and have known for some time.
Native Americans know Sasquatches are real and warned the invaders, only for it to be kept secret by the white Man...until white men who moved into the area had their own run ins with these wild creatures ("demons").
These creatures have features in common but are of distinct types. Some are peaceful nature protectors, others are utter monstrosities: giants, cannibals (half human, half hair-covered beasts), brutes.
He saw enormous breeding monsters, babies
While in the military Michael was helping state troopers in Kentucky (though he does not mention the state) when he ran across a troop of Bigfoot (called Yakkhas/ogres in Buddhism).
Hear the testimony, which includes confirmation of the "giant" (red haired, six fingered rakshasa reported by Steve Quayle) taken down in Afghanistan by a special American tactical team. COMMENTS

Climate chaos: Rain, mudslides from dramatic storms in Pacific Northwest 2015(AP)
Almaden Reservoir is filled after series of storms, March 14, 2016, in San Jose, NoCal: Four straight days of rain have replenished key reservoirs in drought-stricken California (AP).
The "drought" is kind of a farce because only slow melting snow is counted as water, and almost all rain is allowed to rush out to sea in storm drains.
Nature is doing its part, and government is dropping the ball. More than the amount of water needed to declare the drought over (measured in a specific number of gallons) is sitting in California's Lake Tahoe and could be moved where it's needed.
Water from the Pacific Ocean could be desalinated. But, but...! People parrot naysayers in the mainstream media about cost or convenience or nonsense based on not understanding the technology, which works just fine on an industrial scale in Israel.
There is no imminent "shortage" of water just a human certainty of prices for it going up -- and for that a "drought" is needed with austerity measures, continued chemtrail spraying (now admitted by the government after years of silence poisoning population centers, soil, and waterways), enforced conservation, and hefty fines.
UPDATE: Some NorCal reservoirs at flood stage, SoCal lagging
Castaic Lake July 2014: no swimming allowed due to low water levels (Chris Austin).
.
(SCPR) Storms over the weekend pushed an important water
supply reservoir in Northern California to above average capacity for
the first time in years.
Water levels at Lake Shasta are now 103 percent of their historic
capacity. Despite a storm here Friday, Southern California hasn't seen
anywhere near the same kind of rain this winter, and local reservoirs
remain low.
The series of storms that started late last week drenched the state, closing roads and schools while causing flooding and power outages. Northern California was the hardest hit over four days. Other parts of the state saw the heaviest rainfall late last week.
Forecasters had issued an avalanche warning that expired Monday along the crest of the Sierra Nevada, where the highest peaks received up to 5 feet of snow over the weekend. The snowpack normally stores about 30 percent of the state's water supply.
As the latest storm weakened, warm temperatures and blue skies were forecast throughout California during the rest of the week. The El Nino-related storms led to the death Sunday of a highway patrol officer who was struck while directing traffic on a snowy Sierra Nevada freeway.
Full reservoirs and a lush snowpack in Northern California are critical for the entire state as the water eventually flows to the agriculture-rich Central Valley and densely populated Southern California, which has seen relatively little rain this winter.
In Northern California, officials reported that lakes Shasta and Oroville have not been as full since 2013. Lake Shasta, the state's largest reservoir, was at 79 percent capacity and at 103 percent of its historical average for this time of year.
The 21-mile long reservoir north of Redding now holds 3.6 million acre-feet of water, enough to supply 3 million to 6 million households for a year. "It's definitely welcome news, but it's kind of a mixed bag for us," said Shane Hunt, a spokesman for the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation. "We still don't have water in all the right places to meet demand going into peak season."
For example, man-made New Melones in the Sierra Nevada foothills remains at just 22 percent of capacity and well below the historical average. The state's second-largest reservoir, Lake Oroville, was at 70 percent of capacity and hit its historical average Monday. Folsom Lake, 25 miles northeast of Sacramento, was at 69 percent of capacity.
California Governor Jerry Brown ordered mandatory cutbacks of 25 percent in water use last year. George Kostyrko, spokesman for the State Water Resources Control Board, said the panel will reconsider restrictions in May.
"March is really looking good so far and we're hoping for an awesome April, but we can't revisit our regulations until the end of the water year, which is April," he said. Heavy snow fell throughout the weekend in the Sierra Nevada... More
An extremely rare and "extremely cute" Sierra Nevada red fox, which has nearly gone extinct with only 50 left in the U.S., has been spotted in the park (Yosemite National Park).
Red fox sighted in Yosemite
Yosemite National Park confirms first sighting. The elusive Sierra Nevada red fox has been spotted at Yosemite National Park for the first time in nearly 100 years.
“They are extremely cute little animals,” said Yosemite spokeswoman Kari Cobb. “When you see them, they are pretty majestic.”
Motion-sensitive cameras captured the red fox -- one of 14 mammals protected by California -- on Dec. 13 and Jan. 4. Park officials are still trying to determine whether the cameras caught the same fox or a second one. “The chance of running into them is very unusual,” Cobb added.

California’s Sierra Nevada red fox is one of the rarest mammals in North America, Cobb said: Fewer than 50 of the bushy-tailed mammals exist in North America.
The last time a red fox was seen at Yosemite was in 1915, she said.

The shy creatures avoid human interactions. They burrow in soil and logs at 6,000 feet elevation, according to the park’s website. Little is known about the creature because sightings are so rare. Photographs of the Sierra Nevada red fox were taken in 1990 during a wolverine study at the Lassen National Forest.

"Hell's Valley" (Jigokudani Monkey Park) may not be a familiar name, but one thing about it is very popular -- a place in Nagano where one can see "snow monkeys," Japanese macaques, taking an onsen, a hot mineral bath.
Hell's Valley is easy to pass while driving on the way up to Shiga Kogen. Jigokudani Yaen Koen Park opened in 1964, and since then many thousands of people from around the world have visited to observe the lifestyle of the Japanese macaques, Macaca fuscata, a species of monkey native to northern Japan's "Alps."
It is the most northern-living non-human primate, surviving winter temperatures of below -15 °C. They have brown-gray fur, red faces, hands, and bottoms, and short tails and often seem remarkably human. It arranges itself by heredity with each social position handed down (like India's old Vedic caste system) from the mother. But every rigid system has to eventually give way to an individual, in this case -- as in the case of the Buddha -- a little prince.
(PBS/Independent Lens) "Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women" Urmi Basu, the founder of New Light, explains to America Ferrera the caste system in India and how women end up in prostitution. This landmark transmedia project featuring a four-hour PBS primetime national and international broadcast event, a Facebook-hosted social action game, mobile games, two interactive websites, educational video modules with companion text, and an impact assessment plan all inspired by Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide, the widely acclaimed book by Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn. The series follows Kristof, WuDunn, and six celebrity activists including Diane Lane, America Ferrera, Olivia Wilde, and Nicole Kidman as they travel to nine countries and meet inspiring, courageous individuals.Across the globe oppression is being confronted, and real meaningful solutions are being fashioned through health care, education, and economic empowerment for women and girls. Embedded in the linked problems of sex trafficking and forced prostitution, gender-based violence, and maternal mortality -- which still needlessly claims one woman every 90 seconds -- is the single most vital opportunity of our time. And all over the world, women are seizing it.
In the wild they spend most of their time in forests and feed on seeds, buds, fruit, invertebrates, berries, leaves, and bark. The monkeys have a body length ranging from 80 to 95 cm. The males weigh around 10-14, kg while the females are usually half that at around 5.5 kg.
The park is located in the Yokoyu River Valley, which flows down from Shiga Kogen, the Japanese Highlands. At an elevation of 850 meters, the area is called "Hell's Valley" due to the steep cliffs and hot water steaming out from the Earth.
It is also a fairly harsh environment in winter with snow on the ground for a third of the year. But it is a natural paradise for 200 or so monkeys living there. Humans are lucky, too, because we can enter their world and watch them enjoying themselves.
Watching monkeys play, take a leisurely onsen or a swim is a lot of fun. The monkeys generally ignore their human counterparts and just get on with whatever it is they want to be doing.

Russians believe they have captured footage of elusive Yeti in a remote patch of woodland. It shows a "bear-like" figure covered in hair emerging from an area of snow-covered trees in the south-western Adygeya Republic.
.
According to some Russians this dark figure stumbling through the snowy woods is a Yeti [technically an Almasty] -- and they even have a footprint. The footage shows a figure covered in hair emerging from an area of trees.
ALMAS: (Mongolian ŠŠ»Š¼Š°Ń, Bulgarian ŠŠ»Š¼Š°Ń, Chechen ŠŠ»Š¼Š°Š·Ń, Turkish Albıs), Mongolian for "wild man," is a purported hominidcryptozoological species reputed to inhabit the Caucasus and Pamir Mountains of Central Asia, and the Altai Mountains of southern Mongolia. The creature is not currently recognized or cataloged by science, whose [white-labcoat-clad priests] do not believe in the possibility that such
mega-fauna cryptids exist, because of the improbably large numbers necessary to maintain a breeding population, and because climate and food supply issues make their survival in reported habitats unlikely...
"Bear-like" creature was on camera for just seconds before disappearing.
Creature was spotted in the Adygeya Republic in south-western Russia.
The Russian team believe they have captured footage of the elusive Yeti.
Others question its authenticity and say it was a stunt to bring in tourism.
This is the moment a group of Russians captured video footage of what they believed was a Yeti walking through the woods. The footage shows a "bear-like" figure covered in hair emerging from an area of snow-covered trees in the south-western Adygeya Republic before disappearing again seconds later.
A team had set out in search of the mysterious creature after local television reported that it had been sighted in a remote region an hour's drive away from the city of Adygeisk. They said they had questioned residents at a mountainside lodge who claimed to have seen it and, on speaking to others in the area, managed to secure reports of several independent sightings.

The group claim they heard the crunching of snow as they headed out to investigate before capturing footage of the creature, which they describe as covered in hair. Afterwards, they took a plaster cast of a large footprint they said they found in the snow.
Eyewitness Ludmila Hristoforova who spoke to local television said: "The creature was big, looking like a bear, but not a bear. From the door we've seen something big and shaggy." More + VIDEO
Dogs are kept in cages where buyers can select the one they want. Chinese street traders at this illegal market that sells dog and cat meat are chucking the animals in a nearby river to drown them to avoid distressing customers. The illegal market has sprung up alongside the banks of the Xi River in Foshan City in southeast China's Guangdong province, where authorities have done nothing to stop the booming business in fresh dog and cat meat. The animals are kept in cages, where buyers can select the one they want, and can either take it home alive or pay to have it [drowned in the river then] butchered and cut up into fresh meat in front of them. The traders said that people had complained about seeing the animals, which were being sold live, killed in front of them. As a result they had come up with the alternative killing method, which they consider more humane. She told local TV: "We want to prove our customers that what we sell is fresh unlike some of the shops in town, but with no facilities to kill..."

Hello, HAARP. Snow sweeps USA like a Himalayan snow storm (Jos Martin/flickr.com)
(DN!) From hottest Oct. to coldest Nov., is Climate Change behind the extreme weather?
(ScattyCat Julie Trueman/flickr.com)
Record cold temperatures have been recorded across the USA this week. The most extreme weather is hitting western New York, where at least seven people have died.
At least six feet of snow has already fallen on parts of Buffalo, and another two to three feet is expected today. Tuesday was the coldest November morning in the country since 1976.
Temperatures dropped below freezing in every state including parts of Hawaii [which is always frozen because it has the tallest mountain in the world with its base sitting deep in the sea, though not the highest mountian, which is either K2 in Pakistan or Mt. Everest in Nepal] on Tuesday and Wednesday.
This comes just days after NASA reported last month was the warmest October on record [which it announces after revising up temperatures and massaging the statistics in a worrisome way to align data with popular theory rather than dealing with the numbers just as they are].
Democracy Now! looks at the link between extreme weather and climate change with Eric Holthaus, a meteorologist who writes about weather and climate for Slate.com. More
It was a dramatic scene in the Senate this week. As Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who was presiding, announced the defeat of the Keystone XL pipeline, a Crow Creek Sioux man from South Dakota sang out in the Senate gallery. A massive people’s climate movement against extracting some of the dirtiest oil (tar sands) on the planet had prevailed...at least for now.
Angels don't play this HAARP
HAARP, the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program, is an ionospheric manipulation, weaponization, and weather control program jointly funded by the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Navy, the University of Alaska, and DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency). See HAARP.net. Designed and built by BAE Advanced Technologies (BAEAT), its purpose was originally said to be to analyze the ionosphere and investigate the potential for developing ionospheric "enhancement technology" for radio communications and surveillance. The HAARP program operates a major sub-arctic facility, named the HAARP Research Station, on an Air Force-owned site near Gakona, Alaska. More

This is a summary of the contents of a book that describes an entirely new class of weapons. The United States Navy and Air Force have joined with the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, to build a prototype for a ground-based "Star Wars" weapon system located in the remote bush country of Alaska.
People demanding answers about HAARP are scattered around the planet. As well as bush-dwellers in Alaska, they include: a physician in Finland; a scientist in Holland; an anti-nuclear protester in Australia; independent physicists in the United States; a grandmother in Canada, and countless others.
Unlike the protests of the 1960s the objections to HAARP have been registered using the tools of the 1990s. From the Internet, fax machines, syndicated talk radio and a number of alternative print mediums the word is getting out and people are waking up to this new intrusion by an over zealous United States government.More

Where does anyone think the traffic comes from? It’s people, commuting from one place to another. It has already been pointed out that due to the lack of a center, people move from where they live to where they work or play. It is a great expanse to cover, and most of it is covered in concrete and asphalt, which facilitates travel. It is actually just much more evenly distributed in terms of density than east coast cities.
