“Hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15,” declared “Beto” O’Rourke at a Democratic party presidential candidate debate in September. Compelling Americans to surrender their so-called assault weapons is “the newest purity test” for Democratic presidential candidates, according to the Washington Post. O’Rourke and other Democratic presidential candidates, including Cory Booker, Kristin Gillibrand, and Bill de Blasio (now withdrawn from the race, as are Gillibrand and O’Rourke) have all endorsed mandatory buy-backs of assault weapons. Though such proposals are momentarily politically profitable, they could start a cascade of public-policy dominoes that ends in civil war. Continue reading “Gun Seizures Could Lead to Civil War”

Columbia, SC — Taxpayers in South Carolina will not only be left with the optics of having an inmate give birth in her jail cell and whose baby died in the toilet, but they’re also on the hook for the $1.15 million dollar lawsuit the woman just won against the state. The State of South Carolina and two healthcare companies responsible for the former inmate’s healthcare while in prison will be paying up for what seems to be the grossest of negligences: allowing a baby to die in jail.

One of the defining characteristics of the mysterious deep-space signals we call fast radio bursts is that they are unpredictable. They belch out across the cosmos without rhyme or reason, with no discernible pattern, making them incredibly hard to study.
Now, for the first time, astronomers have found a fast radio burst (FRB) that repeats on a regular cycle. Continue reading “Powerful Radio Signal From Deep Space Appears to Be Repeating in a 16-Day Cycle”
While there are some in the United States who believe we are headed toward another Civil War, there is perhaps another, more recent parallel worth exploring – the so-called “Italian Years of Lead.”
The short version is that in the late 1960s through the early 1980s, Italy was a hotbed of assassination, shoot-outs and bombings between various factions of the far-left, the far-right and the Italian government – with American, British and Soviet intelligence agencies often pulling the strings.

A Review of Murray N. Rothbard’s Conceived in Liberty, Vol. 5
The posthumous release of Murray Rothbard’s fifth volume of his early American history series, Conceived in Liberty, is a cause of celebration not only for those interested in the country’s constitutional period, but also for the present day as the nation is faced with acute social, economic, and political crises. The fifth volume, The New Republic: 1784-1791, stands with Boston T. Party’s 1997 release, Hologram of Liberty, as a grand rebuttal of the cherished notion held by most contemporary scholars, pundits on the Right, and, surprisingly, many libertarians who believe that the US Constitution is some great bulwark in defense of individual liberty and a promoter of economic success.

‘I don’t understand how you can be a pedophile and keep your job’: 12-year old asks NHC School Board
NEW HANOVER COUNTY, N.C. (WECT) – Parents packed the New Hanover County School Board meeting Tuesday, demanding for superintendent Tim Markley to be removed.
Many of those parents and even a 12-year-old girl spoke out about the school sex scandal.
The lockdown of 400 million plus Chinese people created a worldwide health emergency because they create 97% of our antibiotics, 80% of our drug stocks and 70% of our vitamins. Wuhan produces lots of cars and car parts which will hurt the auto industry but cutting off pharmaceuticals can kill millions of people around the world.
I will write a protocol to tell everyone how to overcome an exposure to the corona virus in a couple of days. But this shut down needs to be understood in terms of what happens to us when the Wuhan virus hits countries from Japan and Australia to America, the UK and Europe.

Kyle Bass took his long-time battle with China up another notch by getting into a heated spat with the influential editor-in-chief of a Communist Party-backed newspaper.
The hedge fund manager suggested on Twitter that the U.S. abandon efforts to help contain the coronavirus and let it spread through China’s leadership. Continue reading “Bass Says Virus Should Spread to China Leadership as Spat Widens”
“I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protestant church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church. All national institutions of churches … appear to me no other than human inventions, set up to terrify and enslave mankind, and monopolize power and profit.” — Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason
The New Way Forward Act is legislation designed to make a new country out of the US using immigration as the means. The laws says: “convictions should not lead to deportations, meaning that criminals could settle in the US with no danger of being sent back. The bill says criminalizing illegal entry into the US is “white supremacist”. Illegal aliens would become a protected class while Americans would be required to sustain them financially. Aliens who already have been deported for crimes would be brought back into the country at taxpayer expense. Forty-four House Democrats are sponsoring this bill. [This will make the hair stand up on the back of your neck. If you are in a rush, start at the 4:25 mark.] -GEG Continue reading “‘New Way Forward Act’ Is Designed to Open US Borders to All Immigrants, Including Criminals”

In New York, there’s a bill that is currently at the Senate Committee level that could radically change the way guns are bought, sold, and transferred between people.
That bill would force people to undergo a mental health screening and share their results with retailers and private sellers of guns if they so decide to try to purchase one. Continue reading “NY Bill would require mental health screening before background checks to purchase firearm”
Actor Corey Feldman’s new documentary called ‘(My) Truth: The Rape of 2 Coreys’, which is set to release on March 9, is touted to be a provocative exposé where the musician and one-time teen idol will reveal the details of the most “emotionally trying” period of his life. However, there’s a catch for the much-anticipated documentary — viewers will only get one chance to watch the film.

Numerous reports in the Arab press have accused the US and Israel of being behind the creation and spread of the deadly coronavirus as part of an economic and psychological war against China, the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) reported.
One report in the Saudi daily newspaper Al-Watan claimed that it was no coincidence that the coronavirus was absent from the US and Israel, though this is despite America having 12 confirmed cases at the time of writing.

River Falls, WI — While most parents of school children in the United States will take comfort in knowing a police officer is at their child’s school, all too often, school cops are caught committing the vilest of offenses. Videos surface almost monthly of cops beating and abusing students for no reason, which is bad enough. But when they aren’t beating students, school cops are often times caught sexually abusing them. Case in point: a school resource officer in Wisconsin was arrested this week on multiple charges for sexually assaulting at least 7 students.

The best time to size up the collapse in housing that I called almost two years ago will be when it is over — so we can visualize its full extent. Since it is now over by some measures, though not by others, this might be as good as we get for awhile as a moment when we can pause to take a broad scan of the full extent of our damages to date. However, as you’ll see below, we’re still clinging to the side of a cliff. We’re not back up on top. Continue reading “Sizing up the 2017-2020 Housing Cliff Hanger”
