Federal officials have opened up an investigation into whether or not Cliven Bundy supporters damaged a protected archaeological site when they rode all-terrain vehicles through it during a weekend protest.

On Saturday, hundreds of protesters gathered near southern Utah’s Recapture Canyon, voicing their opposition to the fact that the area has been closed to recreational vehicles by the Bureau of Land Management since 2007. After the rally, dozens of people descended upon the canyon in ATVs, driving the vehicles through restricted areas.   Continue reading “Feds preparing to charge Bundy ranch supporters over Utah protest”

Air Force Two was half an hour late getting to Miami for U.S. Vice President Joe Biden’s commencement speech at Miami Dade College on Saturday, but the former senator from Delaware managed to rile up the crowd, anyway.

His speech was part inspiration, part politics. Biden told the crowd that Americans must continue to innovate if the nation wants to retain its prominent place in the world, and that those graduating on Saturday were in a great position to drive change in a rapidly evolving world. He also called on the United States to provide citizenship to its 11 million “undocumented aliens,” saying part of what makes America great is immigrants willing to give up their lives to start fresh in the U.S.   Continue reading “Joe Biden on Undocumented Immigrants: ‘Take These People Out of the Shadows’”

Hot Air – by Ed Morrissey

Remember when Barack Obama wanted to change the manner business got conducted in Washington?  If that seems a long time ago, it retreated further in the distance when Team Obama admitted yesterday that running mate Joe Biden had a son consulting MBNA, a credit company who had a lot to lose if a bankruptcy bill Obama opposed became law.  Biden actively supported the bill, which made their investment in consultants look wide indeed:   Continue reading “Biden’s son consulted for credit company Biden defended in Senate”

The rise of the robot in the 21st century can be directly related with the rise of drone technologies perfected by the United States Military. Drones or UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicle) have unexpectedly become popular in the mainstream media mostly due to conspiracy theories and Kentucky senator Rand Paul’s epic13 hour filibuster before congress. Senator Paul schooled the congressional committee on how drones are currently being used to kill innocent civilians in Pakistan and Afghanistan and how the use of drones over American skies could potentially be used from everything to unwarranted spying to capturing and killing terrorist and criminals. Drones for spying and warfare can come as small as mosquitos, and these drones can do everything from record conversations to emitting deadly bio-chemical weapons. The uses of drones have grown so much that they comprise over 30% of all US Military aircraft. But the real dangers of drones are the warning signs they signal for the eventual steps towards the A.I. becoming aware.    Continue reading “SKYNET is Real”

Rand PaulThe Nation- by Bob and Barbara Dreyfuss

Is Rand Paul trying to change his Israel spots? Perhaps. In recent weeks, despite the fact that Paul has long positioned himself as a skeptic of the US-Israel alliance and opposes neoconservative-style interventionism abroad, he has been making at least a feint in the direction of Israel, various hardliners, and—as we learned this week from a funny but revealing piece in The New York Times—Rupert Murdoch, too.    Continue reading “What’s Behind Rand Paul’s Israel Feint?”
