President Obama on Thursday signed a massive rescue package to address Puerto Rico’s debt crisis — just one day before the island must make a $2 billion payment.

“It’s not going to be in and of itself sufficient to solve all the problems that Puerto Rico faces,” Obama told reporters in the Oval Office. “But it is an important first step on the path of creating more stability, better services and better prosperity overall.”   Continue reading “Obama signs Puerto Rico debt bill”

In the 2005 film Lord of War, Nicholas Cage portrays a prominent Ukrainian-American gun-runner by the name of Yuri Orlov, who makes immense profits peddling helicopter rockets, grenades, and AK-47s following the collapse of the former Soviet Union.

At one stage in the movie, his wife attempts to coax him into diversifying into a more legitimate (and moral) business operation.  She feels appropriately guilty that they live such an extravagant lifestyle as a result of her husband’s business dealing in the tools of destruction.   Continue reading “Can we become wealthy by honest means in the 2010s?”

Cities across the U.S. are discovering that a visit from Donald Trump isn’t cheap. The presumptive Republican nominee kicked off his California campaign on April 28 at the Pacific Amphitheatre in the Orange County suburb of Costa Mesa, south of Los Angeles. Anti-Trump protesters outside turned violent, blocking a freeway on-ramp and trying to overturn a police cruiser. The night ended with 17 arrests, five damaged police vehicles—and a $30,000 bill for the city.   Continue reading “Cities Bill Trump for the High Cost of Rallies”

One of the guns used in the November 13, 2015 Paris terrorist attacks came from Phoenix, Arizona where the Obama administration allowed criminals to buy thousands of weapons illegally in a deadly and futile “gun-walking” operation known as “Fast and Furious.”

A Report of Investigation (ROI) filed by a case agent in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives (ATF) tracked the gun used in the Paris attacks to a Phoenix gun owner who sold it illegally, “off book,” Judicial Watch’s law enforcement sources confirm. Federal agents tracing the firearm also found the Phoenix gun owner to be in possession of an unregistered fully automatic weapon, according to law enforcement officials with firsthand knowledge of the investigation.   Continue reading “Law Enforcement Sources: Gun Used in Paris Terrorist Attacks Came from Phoenix (Fast and Furious)”

An FBI agent testified during a Wednesday detention hearing that a Tooele County man showed no remorse when he thought — incorrectly — that he had bombed a Bureau of Land Management cabin on the Arizona Strip the night of June 21.

The federal defender for William Keebler, meanwhile, said undercover agents proposed the explosive types, drove Keebler to the location, placed the bomb, handed Keebler a remote trigger and told him to press the button three times.

Keebler knew the cabins to be unoccupied, said Lynn Donaldson, and his actions amounted to “an extreme act of disobedience, in the nature of vandalism.”   Continue reading “FBI agent: Investigation of alleged attempted bomber began after his involvement at Bundy Ranch”

Since 2014, the Internal Revenue Service has ceased confiscating (stealing) the property of innocent individuals. Or have they?

No one wants to throw cold water on the party, especially when it comes to a victory over the IRS. However, an exclusive interview with Attorney Robert Everett Johnson of the Institute for Justice (IJ) reveals how little the tax-collection agency has conceded with their policy updates.

“President Obama has mass deported vast numbers of people — the most ever, and it’s never reported.

An illegal immigrant who stabbed a young Connecticut woman to death after completing a 15-year sentence for murder couldn’t be deported by the U.S. government because his homeland, which receives billions in aid from Uncle Sam, wouldn’t take him back—three times! So federal authorities released the violent criminal, a Haitian national, and didn’t even bother tracking his whereabouts allowing him to commit yet another heinous crime.   Continue reading “Illegal Alien Who Butchered Conn.
