School officials sent out a statement Monday after Gov. Jerry Brown signed AB 424 into law over the weekend. The bill, authored by Sacramento Assemblymember Kevin McCarty, expands the ban of firearms in a school zone to include school employees.   Continue reading “Folsom school staff can’t have guns on campus due to new California law”

While the mainstream media focuses on anything but the current state of U.S. intervention in the Middle East, the Trump Administration is breaking records by accumulating a horrific number of civilian deaths.

Former President Obama earned the nickname of “Drone King” when he dramatically escalated the use of drone strikes, while also downplaying the number of innocent civilians who became “collateral damage.” In the two years that his administration devoted to publicly spending millions of taxpayer dollars to fight the Islamic State group, the estimated civilian death toll ranged from 2,300 to 3,400, according to Airwars, an organization tracking deaths in the war against ISIS.   Continue reading “Trump Has Killed More Civilians with Illegal Drone Strikes in 9 Months Than Obama Did in 8 Years”

The Trump administration must turn over all emails and memos used to make its decision to phase out Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, the 2012 program created to protect undocumented youths from deportation, a federal judge ruled Tuesday.

If the communications between the White House and the departments of Justice and Homeland Security are made public, it could offer a window into the political machinations behind the Trump administration’s abrupt call to torpedo DACA.  Continue reading “Judge Orders Trump Administration To Turn Over DACA Emails”

The Justice Department (DOJ) will hire a director of asset forfeiture accountability to oversee the DOJ’s asset forfeiture program, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced in a memo Tuesday.

But the new director — unlike, say, an inspector general who works to ferret out waste, fraud and abuse in a federal agency — won’t be independent of the DOJ. The director will work in Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s office.    Continue reading “Sessions announces new position to police asset forfeiture”

The promoters of crypto currencies have gushingly touted them as the mechanism by which the present central banking cabal and the system of nation states which derive much of their power from it will be brought down and replaced by digital money.  Despite their meteoric rise as speculative “assets,” there are fundamental economic reasons why they will never act as a general medium of exchange despite the wild enthusiasm for them by the crypto-currency cultists.

Money – a general medium of exchange – is the most marketable (exchangeable) commodity in an economy.  As a good, money is not sought after for its direct use – to satisfy individual wants – but to satisfy wants indirectly through exchange for other goods.  Over time, one good becomes money since it possesses qualities superior to all other goods as a money.  When gold became demanded not for its “use value,” but for its “exchange value,” it became a general medium of exchange – money.   Continue reading “Bitcoin: A Tower of Monetary Babel”

Today, the South Korean and U.S. navies kicked off massive combined drills off the coast of the Korean peninsula amid heightened tensions, a training exercise which North Korea has warned may prompt another ballistic missile launch potentially to coincide with the launch of the Chinese 19th Party Congress on October 18. The two allies plan to continue the Maritime Counter Special Operations Exercise (MCSOFEX) through Friday in the East Sea and the Yellow Sea.

As reported over the weekend, the drill involves the U.S. 7th Fleet’s aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN-76) and two Arleigh Burke-class destroyers – the USS Stethem (DDG-63) and the USS Mustin (DDG-89). The carrier strike group will train with South Korean warships and other defense assets, such as the Sejong the Great Aegis ship and P-3 Orion anti-submarine aircraft in the East Sea.   Continue reading “US Deploys Special Forces “Decapitation” Team To South Korea”

The arrests come at a time when Congress is debating what to do about Dreamers, and the arrests could complicate the picture painted of Dreamers as law-abiding standouts who are victims of circumstance.   Continue reading “2 Dreamers caught smuggling immigrants into Texas”
