The number of confirmed cases of an uncommon respiratory illness has increased to 277 in 40 states and the District of Columbia, affecting mostly children, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

First identified 50 years ago, Enterovirus 68 or EV-D68 was rarely tested for and only began getting attention last month as hundreds of cases were linked to the virus.

“The severity is what triggered our concern,” said Mark Pallansch, director of the CDC’s Division of Viral Diseases.   Continue reading “CDC: Respiratory illnesses up to 277 confirmed cases in 40 states”

Ted Cruz is running for president. The only thing left for him to do is say so.

According to sources close to the Texas senator, Cruz could be preparing for an end-of-year announcement and is now dedicating considerable time and effort to cultivating a foreign-policy foundation that might help his candidacy stand out in what is guaranteed to be a crowded field.   Continue reading “Ted Cruz Is Prepping a Foreign Policy-Focused Presidential Campaign”

Moore, Oklahoma—A neighbor of beheading suspect Alton Nolan said the suspect is a paranoid loner. The neighbor claimed to have frequently observed Nolan driving around the streets next to the apartment complex waiting for no one to be in the parking lot before he would enter the complex and park. He said he only saw Nolan with another person one time and he would not talk to neighbors.

The retired U.S. Army military police sergeant invited Breitbart Texas into his modest apartment to talk about his now infamous neighbor he had been watching behave suspiciously for months. “Being retired,” the neighbor who asked to remain nameless said, “I’ve got nothing to do but be nosey. From the chair where I watch TV, I’ve got a great view of everyone going up and down the stairs. I know all the silhouettes of all the people who live upstairs.” Continue reading “Beheading Suspect is Paranoid Loner, Says Neighbor”

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Most of the nearly 60,000 Central American children who have arrived on the U.S.-Mexico border in the last year still don’t have lawyers to represent them in immigration court, and advocates are scrambling to train volunteer attorneys to help cope with the massive caseload.

With the number of unaccompanied immigrant children more than doubling this past fiscal year, the need for attorneys has surged, and it has been exacerbated by the immigration courts’ decision to fast-track children’s cases, holding initial hearings within a few weeks instead of months.   Continue reading “AP: Army of 800 Lawyers to Represent Immigrant Children for Free”

In the face of an Ebola outbreak, the government should be deploying the military at all border entry points and in airports for the purpose of establishing quarantine zones for passengers suspected of exposure to the Ebola virus. All flights, to and from Africa, should be banned from entering U.S. airspace. Instead of protecting America, this administration is sending 3,000 soldiers, untrained in dealing with Ebola outbreaks, to Africa for reasons that nobody can seemingly identify? Why? We continue to leave our southern border completely open and Ebola, in the form of a bio-terror weapon can and will be brought into the United States. Again, I ask why? The CDC owns the patent on Ebola and every strain of the virus up to 70% of the variance from the original pathogen. Continue reading “How Ebola Will Irreversibly Transform America”

In what is more proof that the NATO operation against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is merely Libya 2.0, the Obama administration is now stating that it is open to the possibility of establishing a “no-fly zone” over Syria.

The statements, made by both Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel and General Martin E. Dempsey, are supposed to hinge upon an agreement with Turkey, that is itself calling for a “buffer zone,” one of the wishes of NATO since the very beginning of the Syrian crisis.   Continue reading “Libya 2.0? US Says ‘No-Fly Zone’ Over Syria A Possibility”

Update 9/26/14: Recently Apple has announced that it is providing basic encryption on mobile devices that they cannot bypass, even in response to a request from law enforcement. Google has promised to take similar steps in the near future. Predictably, law enforcement has responded with howls of alarm.

We’ve seen this movie before. Below is a slightly adapted blog post from one we posted in 2010, the last time the FBI was seriously hinting that it was going to try to mandate that all communications systems be easily wiretappable by mandating “back doors” into any encryption systems. We marshaled eight “epic failures” of regulating crypto at that time, all of which are still salient today. And in honor of the current debate, we’ve added a ninth.   Continue reading “Nine Epic Failures of Regulating Cryptography”
