Lifting a 40-year-old U.S. ban on crude exports would create a wide range of jobs in the oil drilling supply chain and broader economy even in states that produce little or no oil, according to a report released on Tuesday.
Some 394,000 to 859,000 U.S. jobs could be created annually from 2016 to 2030 by lifting the ban, according to the IHS report, titled: “Unleashing the Supply Chain: Assessing the Economic Impact of a U.S. crude oil free trade policy.” Continue reading “Removing U.S. oil ban would create jobs beyond drilling: report”

The Arizona House of Representatives passed a new bill on Wednesday that stands to completely remove the state from the Obama administration’s plan to provide amnesty and federal benefits to illegal immigrants.
House Bill 2368, sponsored by Republican Rep. Bob Thorpe, prohibits Arizona “from funding executive orders issued by the President of the United States and policy directives from the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) unless affirmed by a vote of Congress and signed into law as prescribed by the U.S. Constitution.” Continue reading “Arizona House Passes Bill That Could Kill Obama’s Amnesty Efforts In The State”
From green screens to Hollywood production style videos that resemble a late 90’s Kid Rock video more than Middle Eastern terror propaganda, the organization known as ISIS certainly has a flair for fear-inducing theatrics.
Last month, ISIS released an amateur quality video showing Islamic State fighters smashing priceless historic relics of ancient Mesopotamia inside of the Ninawa Museum in Mosul. It turns out the precious items being destroyed weren’t the originals, which are secure in Baghdad. Continue reading “Ancient Statues Destroyed by ISIS Were FAKES”

Portsmouth, VA — While police in Portsmouth were stopped early Friday morning at a Dunkin’ Donuts, a miracle happened. The heavens smiled upon America’s indentured slaves and the cop car caught fire, seriously. The car was parked at the Dunkin’ Donuts @ 4701 George Washington Highway in Portsmouth, VA.
Firefighters f#@ked it up around 2am and put the fire out. Clueless, the police are investigating what caused the fire. No one was hurt by the blaze except the police car; a car traditionally used to help cops issue tickets and imprison folks into Virginia’s for-profit prison system. Mysteriously, Dunkin Donuts was closed at that time according to their website. Continue reading “Happy Monday! A Cop Car Caught Fire Outside of Dunkin’ Donuts.”

Oregon Gov. Kate Brown on Monday signed a bill to automatically register voters using drivers’ license data — and she did it with an extra dose of enthusiasm since she had first developed and championed this legislation when she was secretary of state.
Brown said it was a “unique and humbling opportunity” to be able to sign a first-in-the-nation bill that she originally brought to the Legislature in 2013 as a way to improve access to the polls. Continue reading “Kate Brown gets to sign her own bill, for automatic voter registration in Oregon”

Melting snow and rain caused the Ohio River to spill its banks over the weekend, cutting off roads and flooding homes in the southern part of Ohio.
The National Weather Service, which has issued a flood warning for the Cincinnati area, said the river is expected to crest on Sunday at 57.8 feet and be above its 52-foot flood stage at least through Thursday. Continue reading “Ohio River spills banks, flood warning for Cincinnati”
About $1m provided by the CIA to a secret Afghan government fund ended up in the hands of al-Qaida in 2010 when it was used to pay a ransom for an Afghan diplomat, the New York Times reported on Saturday.
Al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden had at first been concerned about the payment, fearing the CIA knew about the money and had tainted it with poison, radiation or a tracking device, the Times said, and suggested it be converted to another currency.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal agents in a sweep targeting the most dangerous criminal immigrants arrested 15 people who have been allowed to remain in the U.S. under President Barack Obama’s executive action intended to protect children who came to the U.S. years ago with their parents, The Associated Press has learned.
Fourteen of the 15 had been convicted of a crime, the Homeland Security Department confirmed late Thursday. In at least one case, the Obama administration renewed the protective status for a young immigrant after that person’s conviction in a drug case, a U.S. official briefed on the arrests said.

Du Hua was just 7 years old when I left Vietnam. I never met him until, recently when I read his book and then spoke with him on the phone.
It was about 10:00 AM, September 19, 1967, when I boarded a commercial flight from Bien Hoa Air Base, Bien Hoa, Republic of South Vietnam. After a 15-hour flight, we landed at Travis Air Force Base, California, at about 10:00 AM, September 19, 1967. Because of the International Date Line, my flight, by local times, was a matter of minutes. Continue reading “The Escapes – And My Journey to Freedom – A Review”

Lawfully Yours is a people’s empowerment guide to our corporate-commercial legal system. It contains invaluable information for all Americans.
Since the founding of our country, the ‘elite’ (and their robber baron partners) have fabricated our history, taken control of our economy and altered our form of government and legal system. The whole rather sordid tale is brilliantly exposed in Judge Dale’s The Great American Adventure – Secrets of America. Continue reading “Lawfully Yours”
We received the following from Misty’s husband:
Dear friends and acquaintances,
I am reaching out to you all for prayers and thoughts for my wife, Misty. She is a warrior for life, love and our family. We just found out she has to have her left kidney removed due to a genetic defect that has caused massive swelling. The Ureteropelvic Junction (UPJ) blockage is caused by a genetic defect that makes the muscle at the junction of the ureter and kidney to contract and not let go. This has destroyed the kidney and the swelling started to effect her health otherwise. Her right kidney has a genetic defect known as “sponge kidney” but it can be lived with okay as long as we take simple measures for it’s health. Continue reading “Prayers for Misty”
