In the last presidential debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, Clinton said that “half of all” illegal immigrants in the U.S. “actually pay federal income tax.” PolitiFact, a Pulitzer Prize-winning fact check organization, investigated Clinton’s claim and reported: “While there is no official figure, experts estimate that about half of all undocumented workers pay federal income taxes, if not more.”

In reality, the polar opposite is true. Federal government data shows that while roughly half of illegal immigrants file federal tax returns, the vast majority of them don’t pay any federal income taxes. Instead, they use these returns to claim refundable tax credits, which are a form of cash welfare. In other words, illegal immigrants mainly use the federal income tax code to collect money from U.S. citizens.   Continue reading “About 6.1 Million Illegals Filed Taxes in US – Many Didn’t Pay, Received Refunds”

A few weeks ago, we reported on a lawsuit in California brought by a resident and taxpayer against the Board of Regents of the University of California. Earl De Vries claimed that by giving in-state tuition benefits to illegal immigrants at all University of California schools, the regents were in violation of federal law.

A state appeals court heard the case yesterday, and based on reports from those who attended the oral argument, De Vries (and the taxpayers of California) had a good day in court.   Continue reading “College Subsidies for Illegal Immigrants Get Their Day in Court”

The “Denver Guardian” is not a real news source and definitely isn’t Denver’s oldest news source.

On Nov. 5, a story began circulating on Facebook (at points gaining 100 shares per minute) with the headline “FBI AGENT SUSPECTED IN HILLARY EMAIL LEAKS FOUND DEAD IN APPARENT MURDER-SUICIDE,” and hosted at denverguardian.com.   Continue reading “There is no such thing as the Denver Guardian, despite that Facebook post you saw”

A magnitude 5.0 earthquake centered near one of the world’s key oil hubs brought down building facades and shattered windows in a central Oklahoma city, rendering century-old buildings unsafe and raising concerns about key infrastructure.

As the sun rose Monday, television news footage showed widespread, substantial damage to buildings, with piles of bricks and other debris littering the ground following the earthquake the previous evening. Cushing Assistant City Manager Jeremy Frazier told a news conference late Sunday that a few minor injuries had been reported. He said the damage appeared to be contained downtown.   Continue reading “Substantial damage after earthquake rattles major Oklahoma oil hub”

Gun-control advocates stymied by lawmakers’ inability to pass widely supported gun safety measures are turning their hopes this year to another arena: the ballot box.

Voters in four states will consider a handful of gun-control proposals Tuesday. The measures have drawn big-dollar support from national gun-control groups such as Everytown for Gun Safety, and enjoy significant fundraising advantages over opposition groups such as the National Rifle Association. Polling indicates all four measures are favored to pass.   Continue reading “Voters in four states are poised to pull the trigger on new gun-control bills”

As secretary of state, Hillary Clinton routinely asked her maid to print out sensitive government e-mails and documents — including ones containing classified information — from her house in Washington, DC, e-mails and FBI memos show. But the housekeeper lacked the security clearance to handle such material.

In fact, Marina Santos was called on so frequently to receive e-mails that she may hold the secrets to E-mailgate — if only the FBI and Congress would subpoena her and the equipment she used.   Continue reading “Clinton directed her maid to print out classified materials”

What does a company calling itself a “family farm” want with 391 unwatered acres of sandstone on Comb Ridge and many other Utah state trust parcels that have gone on the block in twice-yearly auctions?

That’s a question swirling around recent sales of state trust lands in scenic spots to a business entity launched by Utah air-ambulance entrepreneur Joe Hunt.   Continue reading “‘Family farm’ has spent millions buying acres of state land for unknown purpose”

House Judiciary Committee

Washington, D.C. – House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) and House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) today called on the Department of Justice again to preserve all documents related to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server.

Last week, Director James Comey notified Congress that the FBI was investigating a new source of emails related to the Clinton email server investigation. It is reported that these new sources of emails are previously-unexamined devices from Huma Abedin, Secretary Clinton’s advisor and her husband, Anthony Weiner.  Reports also suggest that these emails number 650,000 and are from multiple devices related to the FBI’s investigation of Mr. Weiner’s interactions with teenaged girls.   Continue reading “Goodlatte and Chaffetz Call on DOJ to Preserve All Clinton Investigation Documents”

OSCODA COUNTY, Mich. A mechanical failure led to the accidental release of six training bombs and a training missile over the skies of Michigan last month. officials believe.

WPBN reported that no one was injured when the training munitions, which were not explosive, fell on Oct. 25 from an A-10 Thunderbolt Michigan Air National Guard aircraft. The bombs emit smoke to make their landing spots more visible during training.

Authorities now believe there is about a 99 percent chance that up to five foreign intelligence agencies may have accessed and taken emails from Hillary Clinton’s private server, two separate sources with intimate knowledge of the FBI investigations told Fox News.

The revelation led House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul to describe Clinton’s handling of her email system during her tenure as secretary of state as “treason.”   Continue reading “Sources: 99 percent chance foreign intel agencies breached Clinton server”

Egypt has devalued its currency by 48% and announced that it will be allowed to float – measures that meet a key demand by the International Monetary Fund in order to secure a $12bn (£9.6bn) loan over three years to overhaul its ailing economy.

The devaluation pegged the Egyptian pound at 13 to the dollar, up from nearly nine on the official market. A central bank auction of dollars will be held later on Thursday, allowing supply and demand to determine the value of the pound for the first time in decades.   Continue reading “Egypt devalues currency by 48% to meet IMF demands for $12bn loan”

With the FBI beginning a second criminal investigation into Hillary Clinton’s handling of classified intelligence, it’s important to address the revelations within the following WikiLeaks email. WikiLeaks Email 31077 is even more important than the 650,000 emails found on Anthony Weiner and Huma Abedin’s computers. The Wall Street Journal reports thousands of messages found on their laptop originated from Clinton’s private server, which is why the FBI decided upon yet another Clinton email probe before Election Day. However, one of the biggest questions pertaining to Comey’s first attempt at investigating Clinton has yet to be answered: Why were Cheryl Mills and Hillary Clinton granted attorney-client privilege?   Continue reading “This WikiLeaks Email Proves Cheryl Mills And Hillary Clinton Lied To The FBI”

I always cared about the immigration issue, even before my son was killed. As a 30-year resident of southern California, I’d been noticing for years the extent to which concrete and sprawl was swallowing up the natural environs of my corner of the state. Of all states, I always thought, why is it the one that’s most beautiful and with the most arable and productive land that’s being torn up and paved over. And just how much traffic and gridlock are people willing to take, I would think to myself. Then my son, in his second year of law school, was run over three times and killed by an illegal-alien driver. That’s when I became an immigration-control activist and that’s why I can’t support Hillary Clinton, the open-borders candidate for president.   Continue reading “Man whose son was killed by illegal immigrant files two suits against feds”
