She began the longest running political protest in US history out front of the White House in 1981.

A major priority for Canada’s new prime minister is to reset the relationships with both the U.S. and Mexico. There is a real opportunity for all three countries to recommit to building a North American community. This includes expanding political, security and economic cooperation, as well as greater coordination on issues such as energy and the environment. Further deepening Canada-Mexico ties is one of the keys to strengthening continental relations. The Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, which builds on the commitments of NAFTA could also help take North American trilateral integration to the next level.   Continue reading “Rebuilding and Expanding the North American Relationship”

The FBI has arrested a 23-year-old Wisconsin man for allegedly plotting a mass shooting at a Masonic center in Milwaukee.

The FBI was alerted to Samy Mohamed Hamzeh in September, when he was formulating a plan to attack Israeli soldiers and citizens living in the West Bank, according to FBI officials. Hamzeh, however, abandoned those plans when he realized it wasn’t practical for him to make the journey. He then shifted his focus to organizing an attack inside the U.S., the FBI said in charging documents.   Continue reading “Feds Thwart Alleged Plot to Attack Masonic Temple in Wisconsin”

A Houston grand jury investigating criminal allegations against Planned Parenthood stemming from a series of undercover videos on Monday instead indicted two of the anti-abortion activists who shot the footage.

In a stunning turn of events, the grand jury declined to indict officials from the abortion provider, and instead handed up a felony charges of tampering with a government record against Center for Medical Progress founder David Daleiden and center employee Sandra Merritt. Daleidon was also charged with a misdemeanor count related to purchasing human organs.   Continue reading “Grand jury in Texas indicts activists behind Planned Parenthood videos”

Folks, I’m not joking with this one. Lowell, Massachusetts is going to require gun permit applicants to write an essay to explain why they’re exercising their Second Amendment rights. If a federal judge struck down California’s 10-day waiting period for gun owners as an unconstitutional infringement on their civil rights, then this essay portion should surely be struck down (via Lowell Sun):   Continue reading “Massachusetts Town Subjects Gun Permit Applicants To An Essay Portion”

The Air Force on Friday gave The Associated Press the first substantive description of the accident after being questioned about it by the AP for more than a year.   Continue reading “Air Force Withheld Nuclear Mishap From Pentagon Review Team”

Parents, beware — Big Brother is coming for your kids. Buried deep inside the mammoth “bipartisan” so-called “education” legislation approved last month, dubbed the “Every Student Succeeds Act” (ESSA), is a radical expansion of what the statute refers to as “full-service community schools.” The controversial institutions, more accurately described as parental replacement centers, seek to oversee every aspect of your child’s life, ranging from their “mental health” and “well being” to nutrition and even dentistry. You are in the crosshairs, too, as the Obama administration defines parents as “equal partners” in child rearing. And those are just some of the many unconstitutional provisions in the bill and beyond that aim to turn government schools into parents, and parents into pariahs.     Continue reading “Obama and GOP Unleash “Community Schools” to Replace Parents”

I posted a link on November 15 to Janet Phalen’s article describing the outrageous attempt to mandate vaccinations for any veteran who wishes to receive medical services from the Veterans Administration. I had expected this story to be front page news on alternative news web sites, but so far, I see relatively little reaction from the public, veterans especially, to bring pressure on congressmen to kill this bill in the House (hopefully while there is still time before the sellouts in the House rubber stamp it and send it to the Indonesian Usurper -which might occur in a matter of weeks). This bill is a blatant violation of a verteran’s right to decide (informed consent), and violates more than one provision of the 10 point Nuremberg code – which specifically prohibits any form of coersion or mandatory imposition for any type of medical treatment, including vaccinations, without the willing consent and voluntary desire of the patient.   Continue reading “Analysis and Overview of House Bill S.1203 Requiring Mandatory Immunization for All Veterans Receiving Medical Services”
