As Connecticut is in the midst of a very serious situation regarding guns and gun registration, Governor Dannel Malloy attended a town meeting this week to address constituents at John Barry Elementary School in Meriden, Connecticut. During that event, a pro-gun citizen, who has opposed the legislation signed into law by Malloy, which requires gun owners to register their semi-automatic rifles and high-capacity magazines or be considered felons, asked how Malloy could push legislation that is against law abiding gun owners while abolishing the death penalty and offered early release for violent criminals. Malloy’s answer was not to point to the State Constitution, but to point to the people’s desire to “feel safe.” In that respect, he told the questioner that the legislation regarding gun registration had gone through each branch of government and “your side lost.” In essence, Malloy said, “Get over it.”   Continue reading “CT Governor Dannel Malloy to Gun Owners: “Your Side Lost,” Get Over It”

President Obama has ordered the Department of Homeland Security to conduct a system-wide review of the way it enforces the nation’s immigration laws, asking the department “to see how it can conduct enforcement more humanely within the confines of the law,” according to a White House statement.

The order comes at a critical time for the president, who continues pushing Congress to pass a comprehensive overhaul of the nation’s immigration laws, but is facing increased pressure from immigration advocates who say he should halt all deportations until a new law is passed.   Continue reading “Obama wants deportation handled ‘more humanely’”

It is completely insane that there are people in the so-called freedom and patriot movement that support Kentucky Senator Rand Paul.  This is a man who has completely sold his soul to the interests of international Zionism.  If his previous meetings with neo-conservatives and his trip to Israel wasn’t bad enough, his recent opinion piece published in Time Magazine conclusively proves which side he’s on.  Paul says that he is supportive of taking decisive measures against Vladimir Putin’s alleged aggression even though there is no proof that any real Russian invasion of Crimea has taken place.     Continue reading “Rand Paul firmly supports Zionist agenda against Russia”
