A 29-year-old illegal alien who is accused of rape and murder in a July 24 hammer attack avoided deportation twice in the past 15 months.

First, in May 2014, because a local sheriff’s department declined to honor U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) detainer request and again July 16 after ICE determined that the Mexican national was no longer a priority for deportation under the Obama administration’s new immigration policies.   Continue reading “Feds Declined To Detain Illegal Alien Charged In Hammer Attack And Rape Of California Woman”

Liberty allows an individual to live according to his nature, and to act in his own interests. It’s what sets independent human beings apart from sacrificial animals or slaves.

A man willing to live by his own means — not at the expense of others — must exercise his freedom to think, to choose, to express himself, to join in partnerships, and to produce. He must be free from any physical or psychological coercion that may restrict his capacity to execute actions that guarantee his survival.   Continue reading “In Times of Tyranny, Outlaws Are Heroes”

A traffic stop turned violent in Alabama when it is alleged Janard Shamar Cunningham attacked the officer who pulled him over, pistol-whipping him unconscious before fleeing the scene.

Cunningham, who has a long rap sheet with six convictions dating back to 1999, was later arrested and charged in the crime. But the real story here is the social media reaction.   Continue reading “Cop Pistol Whipped Unconscious, People Post Photos On Facebook And Mock”

A man was gravely wounded in a gun battle with police in Ferguson, Missouri on Sunday night after a day of peaceful rallies to mark the fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager by a white officer one year ago.

Several volleys of gunshots rang out as police in riot gear tried to disperse demonstrators blocking traffic and smashing storefront windows along a street that was a flashpoint of last year’s unrest in the St. Louis suburb after Michael Brown, 18, was slain.   Continue reading “Peaceful rallies in Ferguson give way to violence, gunfire”

(TFC) Washington, DC – Recently, the discussion of people being more hostile to law enforcement has arisen. The overriding question for those in the law enforcement community is: why? Why have people become more hostile and more willing to use violence against law enforcement? It’s a question that has a clear answer, but sometimes when a person is inside of a system, they fail to see what is happening outside of that system. Law enforcement officers exist inside an insulated culture. They don’t typically have the opportunity to openly discuss why a trend is occurring with the average citizen. No, the people who show up to the citizen’s meet and greet are not average citizens.   Continue reading “9 Reasons Why People Kill Cops”

Virginia is targeting 1,691 license plates bearing the Confederate battle flag in a statewide recall that will replace the existing tags with new ones without the controversial image.

The Virginian-Pilot reported that it’s unclear how quickly the flag tags will disappear from state highways now that the plates are being recalled and replaced following a federal judge’s ruling Thursday lifting a 2001 injunction that allowed the image.

“We’re working as quickly as possible to get this done,” Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles spokeswoman Brandy Brubaker told the paper.  Continue reading “Rebel recall: Virginians told to turn in Confederate-themed license plates”

The Obama administration decision to release over $100 billion in sanctions relief as part of the Iran nuclear deal is being challenged by a group of American victims of Iranian terror, who have more than a billion dollars in court judgments against the Islamic regime.

The US has promised to unfreeze funds largely held in overseas bank accounts back to the Central Bank of Iran (CBI). However, the families are enjoining against the sanctions relief, arguing that unfreezing the funds will prevent them from ever being able to collect on the judgments in their cases against Iran.   Continue reading “Terror Victims Sue to Block Iran Sanction Lifting”

The U.N. Security Council on Friday unanimously passed a resolution asking U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon and the head of the global anti-chemical weapons watchdog to prepare a plan to set up an inquiry to identify those behind chemical weapons attacks in Syria’s civil war.

Attributing responsibility for poison gas attacks in Syria’s four-year conflict could pave the way for action by the 15-member Security Council. The body has already threatened consequences for such attacks, which could include sanctions.   Continue reading “U.N. council urges inquiry to identify those behind Syria gas attacks”

Washington, D.C. – Updating America’s behemoth nuclear arsenal could cost nearly one trillion dollars, according to a new report from independent researchers at the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments. Though previous Pentagon assessments claimed that updating the United States’ nuclear weapons could cost $270 billion, the price now appears to be much higher. This week’s daunting projections coincide with the 70th anniversary of the United States deadly detonation of two atomic bombs over Japanese civilians in Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II.   Continue reading “United States to Spend Nearly $1 Trillion Updating Nuclear Arsenal”

GOP Presidential hopefuls expressed plenty of distaste for the Iran nuclear deal during last night’s debate, but it was the voice of a Democrat that mattered most on Thursday evening as Chuck Schumer, the influential Jewish Senator from New York, came out in opposition to the accord.

As Congress heads into the summer recess, President Obama made one last push to secure support for the deal, delivering a fiery speech on Wednesday and warning of dire consequences if the agreement isn’t secured.   Continue reading “In Blow To Obama’s Iran Deal Hopes, Key Democrat Defects”

Authorities said Thursday they are investigating whether a group of armed bounty hunters who mistakenly swarmed the Phoenix police chief’s home were the victims of a prank.

It will take time to probe the social media tip that led 11 people to believe a fugitive was hiding in Chief Joe Yahner’s house, Phoenix police spokesman Trent Crump said. The police are waiting to serve subpoenas, and the investigation could take weeks, Crump said.   Continue reading “Phoenix Police Not Saying If Raid of Chief’s Home Was a Hoax”

The world was stunned to learn that India has now tested nuclear weapons. For many years, all nations have been concerned about the proliferation of atomic explosives. Even in their distress, no one seems to be interested in the historic or the psychological record of why these weapons were developed, and what special breed of mankind devoted themselves to this diabolical goal.   Continue reading “The Secret History Of The Atomic Bomb – Why Hiroshima Was Destroyed”
