People convicted of intentionally targeting police officers, firefighters or emergency medical crews will now face stricter penalties — as one would for targeting someone for race or gender, The Two-Way has reported. Other protected classes in the state are age, color, creed, disability, sexual orientation, national origin and ancestry.   Continue reading “In Louisiana, It’s Now A Hate Crime To Target Police Officers”

Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe invited the Chinese businessman whose donations to him have been named as a focus of Justice Department investigators to a 2013 fundraiser at Hillary Clinton’s personal Washington, D.C., residence.

Wang Wenliang, a Chinese national with U.S. permanent residency, briefly shook Clinton’s hand at the Sept. 30 event, a representative for Wang told TIME. An American company controlled by Wang made a $60,000 contribution to McAuliffe’s campaign three weeks before the fundraiser. Less than a month later, a separate Wang company pledged $500,000 to the Clinton Foundation, the first of several donations that eventually totaled $2 million.   Continue reading “Virginia Gov.

Grumbling that the Obama administration has done all it can to restrict gun ownership at the federal level, Vice President Joe Biden recently urged state and local officials to pick up the task of subverting the Second Amendment.

Biden, who convened a conference of like-minded elected officials from the states Tuesday, griped about a “dysfunctional” Congress — a Congress he said will not accept the gun control agenda pushed by the administration — and said the most meaningful debate is outside of Washington.   Continue reading “WH Makes Final Push to Take the Guns”

(Reuters) – Officials from 11 U.S. states sued the Obama administration on Wednesday to overturn a directive telling schools to let transgender students use bathrooms matching their gender identity, decrying the policy as “a massive social experiment.”

As you begin to understand world governments don’t have your best interests in mind — that enemies of the State could more aptly be called enemies of the globe’s corporate and banking elite — power comes sharply into focus. Those who actually hold the power control the world’s economies, and it’s clear the fates of over 7.4 billion souls now inhabiting the planet are, at best, the least of their concern.   Continue reading “The Illuminati Were Amateurs — The Facts Show These Five Families Rule the World”

Bayer AG, a company that knowingly infected thousands of children with HIV, has officially announced its offer to purchase agrichemical giant Monsanto. Uniting two of the world’s most hated companies, the deal could potentially be a boon for Monsanto, whose sales have tanked significantly recently as the global market continues to scoff at its pesticide, herbicide, and genetically-engineered seed empire.

Bayer’s announcement seems impeccably timed as thousands of people took to the streets in more than 40 countries around the world on Saturday in the 14th annual protest against the American multinational agrochemical and agricultural biotechnology giant Monsanto and against genetically modified (GMO) products.   Continue reading “It’s Official — Bayer Announces $62 Billion Bid for Monsanto — Creating a Mega-Chemical Empire”

CHICAGO (AP) — The head of the Transportation Security Administration warned travelers Friday to expect long airport security lines to continue during the peak summer travel season despite Congress’ shifting of $34 million to the agency.

Peter Neffenger briefed officials in Chicago on Friday about efforts to address crushing delays in getting passengers through security checkpoints at major airports around the country. Congress agreed to shift forward the $34 million in TSA funding to let the agency pay overtime to existing staff and hire an extra 768 screeners by June 15. The agency is funneling many of those resources to major hub airports like Chicago’s O’Hare International.   Continue reading “TSA head: Expect more airport security delays despite funds”
