Healthcare, economy, unemployment, immigration, and terrorism are mere sideline issues among most Americans, according to a recent Gallup poll. The number one problem in America today–is America–or, at least, the government which represents it.
In 2015, for the second straight year, the largest problem Americans have faced is the United States Government. Continue reading “New Gallup Poll — ‘Number 1 Problem Facing Americans Today’ is the U.S. Government”

“The wind began to switch — the house to pitch and suddenly the hinges started to unhitch. Just then the Snitch — to satisfy an itch, went lying to the press club, schlumping for Ms. Lynch.” (Sing to the tune of The Wizard of Oz “Munchkin Land”)
Yes, Josh Earnest, the mouthpiece for the lying criminal traitor Obama, paraded out on Monday night to inform the lamestream enemedia that Hussein Soetoro would announce his unlawful, illegal, unconstitutional gun grabbing agenda on Tuesday. It’s common knowledge at this point that Hussein Soetoro will expose his plan for infringing further on the Second Amendment. But, what really stuck out worse than a “goose egg” on a forehead was the statement made by the administration, aka Hussein Soetoro, and relayed by Josh Earnest, aka “the Snitch.” “White House press secretary, Josh Earnest, said the administration anticipates that the gun lobby will have a ‘creative legal theory’ to oppose the actions.” Continue reading “White House & Talking Heads Discuss Obama’s Treason as if it were Law”

Outgoing Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid is seeking to use $600,000 in campaign and political action committee funds to cover his expenses after leaving office, a request that has the Federal Election Commission concerned about the precedent it would set for using money raised while in office.
Dubbed an “administrative slush fund” by FEC Commissioner Lee E. Goodman, concerns were raised at a meeting in late December that it would let Reid run around the country promoting his agenda with funds given to help his reelection campaigns and as a senator. Continue reading “Harry Reid demands retirement ‘slush fund,’ FEC defers”
Suppose Obama tired of hearing his critics assail him on his foreign policy.
Suppose President Obama took time out from his busy schedule ramming through executive orders, in his last year in office, and gave the following speech about Syria—because he wanted credit for being smart and crafty, not naïve, not weak, not misinformed: Continue reading “Obama: “I am not a doofus.””

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo believes in tough love. Tough as in, he’ll do the loving and compassion his way and if you don’t agree with it voluntarily, then tough on you as you will be arrested or involuntary transferred to a psychiatric hospital for an evaluation.
The compassionate, loving governor signed an executive order to remove homeless people off the streets when the temps dip below 32 degrees and place them into homeless shelters. According to the New York Times: Continue reading “Gov. Cuomo’s Orders: Love, Compassion, Arrest or a Psych Eval, if necessary”

If you were pulled over for driving drunk, I don’t think you would expect any mercy from the law. Your absolute best case scenario, would be spending the night in jail, and facing heavy financial penalties for your crime. But just like every other crime, when a cop does it, the same rules and consequences don’t necessarily apply. Continue reading “This Is How Drunk Driving Cops Are Treated By Other Cops”

Will the showdown in Burns, Oregon, end with bloodshed, the way similar incidents in Ruby Ridge, Idaho, and Waco, Texas, did in the 1990s?
Not according to Clint Van Zandt. The FBI’s former chief hostage negotiator told The Huffington Post on Monday that he’d be surprised if the bureau responded aggressively to the armed occupation of a federal building in Burns. Instead, Van Zandt says officials would be smart to treat the militants in Oregon with “infinite patience.”

Bahrain and Sudan have joined their ally Saudi Arabia in formally severing diplomatic ties with Iran, while the United Arab Emirates has “downgraded” its diplomatic team, recalling its ambassador from Tehran and announcing that it would reduce the number of diplomats assigned to Iran.
In response to the sacking of the Saudi embassy in Tehran, Bahrain gave Iranian diplomats 48 hours to vacate the country.

Regardless of whether or you’re a liberal, conservative, libertarian, or something else entirely, the rapid growth of federal laws and regulations is bad news for everybody. We now live in a society that is ruled by so many laws, no single person can keep track of them all. Which means that no matter who you are or what you do, it’s impossible to go about your daily life without breaking some onerous and vague rule. Any one of us could be fined or imprisoned at any time.

St. Louis, MO — What happens when radioactive byproduct from the Manhattan Project comes into contact with an “underground fire” at a landfill? Surprisingly, no one actually knows for sure; but residents of Bridgeton, Missouri, near the West Lake and Bridgeton Landfills — just northwest of the St. Louis International Airport — may find out sooner than they’d like.
And that conundrum isn’t the only issue for the area. Contradicting reports from both the government and the landfill’s responsible parties, radioactive contamination is actively leaching into the surrounding populated area from the West Lake site — and likely has been for the past 42 years.
