To the people of this great nation, and to the families of those who are in sorrow at this time,
In a time such as this, how can one ever express correctly the feelings within.
Our family morns for the lives that were taken. We are deeply saddened by these events.
Our thoughts of concern are for those who were so hastily left behind. Wives left without husbands and children without fathers, to love, raise and protect. Memories may be all they have to sustain them through the lonely nights ahead. What is a mother to say when a child asks; “where is daddy?”. We pray that the aching hearts of the families will be filled with the knowledge that God knows your pains. His love for you is real and tangible. He will morn and sorrow with you while sustaining you through these times. In the end, our Eternal Heavenly Father will make right all wrongs.

As tens of thousands of unaccompanied minors cross into the United States illegally from Mexico, the Obama administration admits it didn’t anticipate how many would come — and it is asking Congress “for additional (taxpayer) resources to meet this challenge.”
“So there is a request to the appropriators for just over $2 billion to support HHS (Health and Human Services) facilities in particular,” a senior administration official told reporters on a White House conference call Monday.
The administration also is requesting another $160 million in “additional support” for the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees the Border Patrol and immigration agencies. Continue reading “WH Wants ‘Just Over $2 Billion’ From Taxpayers to House Children Crossing Into U.S.”

2005: At the Height of the Iraqi War:
• 20,000: number of non-Iraqi security contractors

The good news is, two cops are dead. The bad news is, the two shooters, and what appears to be an innocent bystander are dead too. Officer Alyn Beck, 42, and Officer Igor Soldo, 32, of the Las Vegas Metro Police were gunned down inside Cici’s Pizza while eating lunch. The shooters, one male, one female, whose names have not to my knowledge been released – reportedly shouted “This is the start of a revolution” before opening fire.
My sympathies go out to the owners, employees, and innocent patrons of the Cici’s Pizza, and the innocent bystander who was shot. That’s about where my sympathies for this particular incident end. Continue reading “Dead Men Don’t Start Revolutions”
A man who gunned down two police officers and a woman Sunday in Las Vegas left behind social media postings that show his concerns over Benghazi, chemtrails, gun control laws, and the government’s treatment of rancher Cliven Bundy.
Neighbors identified Jerad and Amanda Miller as the suspects who shot the officers execution-style as they ate lunch at a pizza restaurant, and then shot a woman outside a Walmart in the same plaza.

You might not realize it while traveling through the small town of Pulaski County, Indiana, population 13,124, but you’re actually in a “war zone,” at least so says Sheriff Michael Gayer in justifying the acquisition of a MRAP military vehicle.
From the Indy Star:
In a pole barn in Franklin, sharing space with a motorcycle and a boat, sat an imposing military vehicle designed for battlefields in Iraq or Afghanistan, not the streets of Johnson County. Continue reading “Indiana Sheriff Says US A “War Zone” To Justify New MRAP Military Vehicle”

The fake shooting of two police officers, among others, where five people were killed is yet another Zionist-orchestrated plot. The domain of that rabid Zionist extremist Sheldon Adelson compliant Las Vegas is an ideal place to perpetrate such a scam.
It is that criminal mind through his money and great power who holds sway over the politic of that city. Clearly, he, along with other rabid Zionist extremists in the area, is behind the hoax and is its major guiding and manipulating force: Continue reading “Shooting in Las Vegas is a Zionist Hoax”

Primary elections originated in the American progressive movement and were intended to take the power of candidate nomination away from party leaders and deliver it to the people. California’s Top Two Primary takes power away from third parties representing the 99% and delivers it to the 1%.
Voters have increasingly become disillusioned with the Democratic and Republican Parties. According to a poll reported by Rasmussen in April, more than half the country believes that neither of the top two parties represents the American people. As presidential candidate Ron Paul remarked in 2011: Continue reading “California’s Top-Two Primary Eliminates Third-Party Rivals”

The Obama administration said Friday that it was starting a program to provide lawyers for children facing deportation as it scrambles to deal with the soaring number of unaccompanied minors illegally crossing the border from Mexico.

US Drug Enforcement Administration investigators have visited the homes and offices of Massachusetts physicians involved with medical marijuana dispensaries and delivered an ultimatum: sever all ties to marijuana companies, or relinquish federal licenses to prescribe certain medications, according to several physicians and their attorneys.
The stark choice is necessary, the doctors said they were told, because of friction between federal law, which bans any use of marijuana, and state law, which voters changed in 2012 to allow medical use of the drug. Continue reading “DEA targets doctors linked to medical marijuana”
