There was a time in America where a citizen could walk right up and knock on the door of the White House. After all, it was the peoples’ house- the president is supposed to work for us.

Of course, those days are long since passed and it would be unrealistic for the president to oblige such behavior nowadays. However, perhaps no president in American history has felt so liberated from the duties and obligations to the American people as Barack Obama.

The president who holds the Marines in such low regard as to salute with a coffee cup in his hand has also shuttered the White House and has prohibited the lowly serfs of America from entering the peoples’ house.   Continue reading “Elderly Marines Walk Hundreds of Miles to White House; Obama WH Officials Refuse to Meet Them”

Detroit — U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes on Monday refused to block the city from shutting off water to delinquent customers for six months, saying there is no right to free water and Detroit can’t afford to lose the revenue.

Rhodes’s order served as a stinging rejection of arguments made by thousands of protesters who staged rallies last summer fighting shutoffs and argued that there is a fundamental right to water service.

“There is no such right or law,” Rhodes said.   Continue reading “Judge won’t stop Detroit shut-offs, says no right to free water”

WASHINGTON — A fabled Florida drug informant once known as “the Princess” has now crowned her career with a bittersweet legal victory

Capping a lawsuit filed in 1997, a federal judge has awarded the woman $1.14 million to cover care for the multiple sclerosis she attributes to a traumatic kidnapping. The judge reasoned the disease could be traced to the Drug Enforcement Administration’s failing its duty.   Continue reading “Federal drug informant scores victory over DEA”

Government employees and politicians get preferential treatment from the Transportation Security Administration simply for being government employees and politicians.

Meanwhile, everyone else is stuck in an “aviation security caste system” based on dozens of watchlists compiled by the TSA, FBI and other law enforcement agencies, along with a secret formula the TSA believes can sort passengers based on hypothetical analyses and conjecture.   Continue reading “Government employees and politicians get special status from TSA”

The United States has a plan to fight the growing threat of antibiotic-resistant diseases. But some experts believe that by not focusing those that ingest most of these drugs – farm animals – humanity could face a huge problem in the future.

Roughly 80 percent of all antibiotics in the US are used on farm animals, according to the Verge. With livestock consuming the vast majority of antibiotics, the bacteria found inside the animals gradually develop resistance against the drugs when they are not administered in strong enough doses – meaning they also become much harder to treat in humans if and when the bacteria are transferred.    Continue reading “Farmacology: Disease researchers say Obama’s antibiotic resistance plan should target livestock”

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Mohamed Mohamud, the young Somali American convicted of trying to bomb Portland’s downtown square while it was filled with holiday cheer, will learn Wednesday if he gets to leave prison before he’s an old man.

Mohamud, 23, could get life in prison at Wednesday’s hearing in U.S. District Court, but federal prosecutors recommend a 40-year sentence. The Somali American was arrested Nov. 26, 2010, after pressing a keypad button on a cellphone that he believed would trigger a bomb where thousands of people gathered for the annual lighting of a Christmas tree.   Continue reading “Judge to sentence man in tree-lighting terror case”

In a bid to contain the rapidly escalating Ebola epidemic, Sierra Leone recently instituted a three-day quarantine during which time the nation’s residents were told to stay at home to avoid infection. But as we reported, this mandatory lockdown resulted in major food shortages in many parts of the country, turning an otherwise benevolent effort into the equivalent of forced genocide.

After urging people to stay home for their own safety, and promising to provide necessary rations, Sierra Leone’s government had trouble actually following through with this plan. Part of this was due to the fact that, because of the shutdown, the transport of food and other necessary supplies came to a grinding halt, resulting in immediate shortages.   Continue reading “Ebola quarantine zones quickly become starvation death traps”
