Welcome to my blog where fraud, lies and corruption are uncovered wherever they hide. Government, non-profits, media and corporations have many secrets and this is where they are exposed. This is where people go for the truth. There is a real need for more watchdog groups. Check out the Resources & Links page for links to find your federal reps, government agencies and other websites packed with important information. The About page has links to some of the testimony and interviews I've given over the years. It's not all bad news I do highlight people and organizations that genuinely contribute to the greater good and deserve recognition.

The story of Half-beak – her incredible will to survive and beat the odds
By Staci-lee Sherwood When most people think of Blue jays they probably don’t put them high on the list of birds they consider rare or spectacular. It’s estimated their global population is roughly 17 million, with over 80% living in the U.S. That might sound amazingly sustainable but you would be wrong. In recent years blue jay populations are on a downward trend with a global decrease about 27%. Predation by cats and dogs, pesticide use and logging of habitat are the

Autumn is a great time to explore nature
By Staci-lee Sherwood Autumn is a great time to go explore the outdoors. It’s a way of connecting to where we belong. We are as much a part of nature as the trees and flowers, we just forget that sometimes. The months of autumn come as a relief from the heat of summer and a warm delight before the cold of winter sets in. This makes for the best time to go walking because cooler temperatures are easier on the body and less likely to cause dehydration. Hiking up mountain

Florida’s FWC agency rife with questions about corruption & controversy
By Staci-lee Sherwood Another vote by Florida’s Fish Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has come to pass without any surprises in what many call a mock public hearing about bear hunting. It was more a dog and pony show than genuine public hearing because everyone already knew how the commission, made entirely of developers and hunters, would vote. Since January 2025 it was clear that a hunt of black bears was all but eminent. Under the ruse of management the proposed

Fall from grace – from saving wildlife to exploiting them for cash
By Staci-lee Sherwood Back in the 1990’s Defenders of Wildlife was the non-profit that got things done, at least for wolves. During the 90s they were the face of wolf conservation, helping to restore them back in Yellowstone National Park and Idaho. The group promoted a program for ranchers who lost livestock to verified predation were financially compensated. This helped smooth over some of the opposition to wolf re-introduction. That was 30 years ago. Since losing the

Wild Horse groups push to update 1971 law which has never been enforced…why now?
By Staci-lee Sherwood In 1971 the Wild Free-roaming Horses and Burros Act was passed. This was designed to guarantee all wild horses and burros living on public land freedom from any harassment from people or being sent to slaughter. It was suppose to spare nearly 50 million acres from development and keep as their unspoiled habitat. That has never happened. Over the years language in other legislation was changed in how wild horses were seen and managed. Federal agencies

Oil addiction will be our demise - paying the price (pt 3/4)
By Staci-lee Sherwood Nothing in life is free everything has a price. For the modern world the price of oil comes in many forms. Many political, environmental, economical and health costs can be traced back to the black gold discovered nearly two centuries ago. The gooey substance that bubbles out of the earth goes through many stages before it becomes an end product. Crude oil is refined to make gasoline but products made from plastic, vinyl and rubber go through several

Oil addiction will be our demise - 50 years of warnings (pt 1/4)
By Staci-lee Sherwood In 1859 the first successful well was drilled in Titusville, PA. Col. Edwin Drake had made a remarkable discovery, one that would change the world forever. He found crude oil, Black Gold. Up until then coal was king but now there was a shiny gooey new toy on the market and everyone wanted a piece. Who could have known all the uses, all the destruction and all the wars this substance would cause. The history of oil and all the wars and crisis that incu

White poison – pulling back the curtain on the dairy industry
By Staci-lee Sherwood Dairy may be white gold for the farmers but the images of happy cows grazing in meadows while providing healthy food is just a myth. It’s more like white poison when you factor in its ill health effect on humans, the cruelty to calves and the contamination to drinking water. Agriculture is #1 for water usage and with that comes unsafe drinking water filled with antibiotics, hormones, pesticides and bodily waste. A milking cow drinks between 30 – 50 gal

Junk food non profits: their empty promises fail to deliver
By Staci-lee Sherwood That empty feeling Have you ever had a taste for something like pizza or Chinese takeout? You fill up on what tastes and smells good and feel full. An hour later you feel hungry as if you hadn’t eaten at all. This is the junk food effect. Something that makes you feel satisfied until you realize you’ve filled up on empty calories with no nutritional value. Many politicians are like junk food. They give emotionally charged rousing speeches that make

Wild horse birth control or sterility? Tainted horse groups push for drugs amid warnings
By Staci-lee Sherwood Wild horses don’t need birth control (but we humans sure do). A prime example of a species that is vastly over populated, decimates the land, rapidly depletes natural resources look no further than our own species. In truth we are the only species that falls into this category. We know deep down there are too many people for the natural resources to support. We ignore this truth choosing instead to find others to blame for the fast extinguishing of l
