The Supreme Court announced Monday it would not intervene to allow release of phone records from the late “D.C. madam” Deborah Jeane Palfrey, despite one of her former attorneys claiming the records are “very relevant” to the presidential election.

Though he has repeatedly threatened to release the records if courts do not modify a 2007 restraining order, Montgomery Blair Sibley tells U.S. News he’s not quite sure what he now will do.   Continue reading “Supreme Court Won’t Release D.C. Madam Records”

Michael Bloomberg gave a not so popular commencement address at the University of Michigan over the weekend. The former champion of banning large sugary drinks wassurprisingly critical of college “safe spaces”, the new trend that’s sweeping the nation.

When the topic of critical lessons learned throughout college came up, the former mayor didn’t hold back on his feelings about the subject. As he spoke, he was originally met with a mixed reaction from the students, with some clapping and some booing.   Continue reading “Mike Bloomberg Booed After Lashing Out At College “Safe Spaces””

GOP Governor Nathan Deal of Georgia today vetoed HB 589, a bill that would have allowed college students to carry concealed weapons on campus.

The liberal republican, who took office in 2011, began by quoting the second amendment but added his own twist, opining “It would be incorrect to conclude, however, that certain restrictions on the right to keep and bear arms are unconstitutional.” He concluded “From the early days of our nation and state, colleges have been treated as sanctuaries of learning where firearms have not been allowed. To depart from such time-honored protections should require overwhelming justification.”   Continue reading “Republican Georgia Governor Vetoes Campus Concealed Carry Bill – Full Text of His Twisted Logic”

Today’s shock leak of the text of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) marks the beginning of the end for the hated EU-US trade deal, and a key moment in the Brexit debate. The unelected negotiators have kept the talks going until now by means of a fanatical level of secrecy, with threats of criminal prosecution for anyone divulging the treaty’s contents.

Now, for the first time, the people of Europe can see for themselves what the European Commission has been doing under cover of darkness – and it is not pretty.   Continue reading “After the leaks today showing just what it really stands for, this could be the end for TTIP”

How to drive without a license is an aspect of sovereignty that many people want to learn. Can you legally drive without a license?

What is the difference between driving and traveling? Is driving a right or a privilege? What do you say to the policeman if you are stopped? How can you best handle unconstitutional checkpoints?   Continue reading “How to Legally Drive Without a License”

The North American Free Trade Agreement (NATFA) was the door through which American workers were shoved into the neoliberal global labor market.

By establishing the principle that U.S. corporations could relocate production elsewhere and sell back into the United States, NAFTA undercut the bargaining power of American workers, which had driven the expansion of the middle class since the end of World War II. The result has been 20 years of stagnant wages and the upward redistribution of income, wealth and political power.   Continue reading “NAFTA’s Impact on U.S. Workers”

You know things are bad when the leading contenders for President in both political parties use the same phony Delaware address as Walmart, Coca Cola, American Airlines & Apple to avoid paying taxes.

Both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump own companies registered at 1209 North Orange Street, Wilmington, DE in a two-story building known aptly as the Corporation Trust Center. More than 285,000 companies use this very same address to avoid taxes, making it the most densely populated mailing address on earth.   Continue reading “Clinton, Trump & Corporation Trust Center”

Not only do congressional Democrats want to take away your constitutional right to own a firearm, they also want to extinguish all methods of protecting yourself from being shot, even if it’s the police doing the shooting.

In case you missed it, a little more than a year ago Rep. Michael “Mike” Honda, D-Calif., introduced the inappropriately titled “Responsible Body Armor Possession Act,” which, of course, bans personal possession of body armor because, you know, that’s “responsible” (in the eyes of an authoritarian, maybe).   Continue reading “Proposed law would make it illegal to protect your body from being shot by police… even if they raid the wrong home”
