NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — If it isn’t fermented in Tennessee from mash of at least 51 percent corn, aged in new charred oak barrels, filtered through maple charcoal and bottled at a minimum of 80 proof, it isn’t Tennessee whiskey. So says a year-old law that resembles almost to the letter the process used to make Jack Daniel‘s, the world’s best-known Tennessee whiskey.

Now state lawmakers are considering dialing back some of those requirements that they say make it too difficult for craft distilleries to market their spirits as Tennessee whiskey, a distinctive and popular draw in the booming American liquor business.   Continue reading “Jack Daniel’s opposes changing Tenn. whiskey law”

The United States and its European allies are expected to announce sanctions against Russia Monday after Crimea’s election chief announced that just under 97 percent of voters in the region supported leaving Ukraine and becoming a Russian province in a referendum held Sunday.

Mikhail Malyshev said in a televised news conference that the final tally of voters in favor of joining Russia was 96.77 percent. The announcement was merely confirmation of what had been expected once the referendum was announced by the region’s parliament earlier this month.    Continue reading “Crimea parliament declares independence, asks to join Russia after landslide vote”

Johnson family pond.jpgFox News – by Barnini Chakraborty

All Andy Johnson wanted to do was build a stock pond on his sprawling eight-acre Wyoming farm. He and his wife Katie spent hours constructing it, filling it with crystal-clear water, and bringing in brook and brown trout, ducks and geese. It was a place where his horses could drink and graze, and a private playground for his three children.

But instead of enjoying the fruits of his labor, the Wyoming welder says he was harangued by the federal government, stuck in what he calls a petty power play by the Environmental Protection Agency. He claims the agency is now threatening him with civil and criminal penalties – including the threat of a $75,000-a-day fine.    Continue reading “Wyoming welder faces $75,000 a day in EPA fines for building pond on his property”

The corporate media has literally spent over a week obsessing endlessly over conspiracy theories involving the alleged disappearance of Malaysian Airlines Flight 370.  If you’ve tuned into any of the American cable news networks be it Fox News, CNN or MSNBC over the past several days you would think that this is the only news story of importance.  These propaganda pushers have logged countless hours engaging in speculation and conjecture over what may or may not have happened with this airplane.  Meanwhile, historically significant events are unfolding in Ukraine that could impact the world for years to come.  The whores in the corporate media have intentionally chosen to provide little coverage of these developments in favor of discussing hours upon hours of Flight 370 conspiracy theories.  It’d be one thing if they were providing real analysis but all of their coverage is designed for the purpose of distraction.   Continue reading “Media Focuses in on Flight 370 Conspiracy Theories while World Edges Closer to War”

A Nation in Peril

I was there yesterday at Ares Armor. It was terribly unjust what took place. They broke in the door about 11:50am. The rally was to start at noon. Robert Newman, candidate for CA Governor came to show support and fortunately he and his videographer arrived early enough to capture the entire event on video!

When I started My Patriot Supply in the fall of 2008 I was motivated by a passion for preparedness and self-reliance that had been rapidly growing inside of me over a period of several years.

It’s a building of dignity and honor, but what happened at the state capitol recently has law enforcement crying shame.

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”

United Nations (United States) (AFP) – Russia vetoed a Western-backed resolution condemning the Crimea referendum at a UN Security Council emergency vote Saturday but China abstained, isolating Moscow further on the Ukraine crisis.

The draft resolution, which says Sunday’s referendum would have no validity, got 13 votes in the 15-member council. But it was rejected when permanent member Russia exercised its veto.   Continue reading “UN resolution on Crimea: Russia vetoes, China abstains”

Swiss scientists have announced that they have devised a new dashboard emotion detector that is able to search a driver’s face for signs of emotion, aiming to predict and prevent a road rage incident before it happens.

Researchers at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Lausanne, Switzerland said they hope to improve safety on the roads by releasing the system – which purports to identify fear, anger, joy, sadness, disgust, surprise, or suspicion – to the public.   Continue reading “Facial scanner aims to recognize drivers’ anger in attempt to stop road rage”

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’”

But then it was discovered that more than 68% of Connecticut cops have failed to comply with the new gun registration laws that went into effect early this year.   Continue reading “68% of Connecticut Cops Have Failed to Register Firearms According to the New Law”

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”
