AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A chewable African plant that investigators in Texas believe may be linked to terrorism groups has quietly launched a lengthy investigation in Houston and produced multiple arrests.

The Austin American-Statesman reported Sunday (http://bit.ly/18SfJ9U ) that Muslim civil rights groups are now questioning whether the Texas Department of Public Safety has crossed a line. The agency last year included the olive-shaped leaves known as khat on a statewide threat assessment.   Continue reading “Texas arrests over plant raise terrorism questions”

Excerpted from BIG GOVERNMENT: Both Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Rep. Mike Rogers (R-MI) admitted on CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday that terrorism has elevated and that the United States is in fact no safer now that it was several years ago, despite elevated surveillance.

After Candy Crowley asked Feinstein if Americans were “safer now than we were a year ago, two years ago,” Feinstein said, “I don’t think so…The numbers are way up. There are new bombs, very big bombs…There are more groups than ever. And there is huge malevolence out there.”   Continue reading “Al Qaeda Not On The Run? – Dianne Feinstein: Terror Threat Worse Than Ever Before”

The numbers are stunning. A recent Houston Chronicle investigation (“Bulletproof,” Nov. 24, A1) reveals that, between 2008 and 2012, Houston police officers shot 121 civilians. In every case, Harris County grand juries cleared the officers of criminal wrongdoing. Not one stood trial.

Is it possible that every one of those shootings was justified? More than a quarter of the people shot were unarmed. One of the men killed was a double amputee in a wheelchair. He threatened an officer with a ballpoint pen.   Continue reading “With Harris County grand juries, it’s ‘pick-a-pal’”

ALBANY — State police are refusing to release statistical information about the number of new pistol permits in New York or how many assault weapons have been registered under a controversial gun-control law enacted in January.

The SAFE Act forbids the disclosure of gun owners’ names who want to keep the information private and also doesn’t allow a new gun database created by the law to be released publicly.   Continue reading “N.Y. won’t release gun law statistics”

Whether you are prepping for the zombie apocalypse or the aftermath of a hurricane, self-defense is an important aspect of surviving any disaster.  Everyone has their preference as to what qualifies as the best survival weapon. History has proven the rifle to be the best all-purpose firearm to face a variety of combat and self-defense scenarios.

However, a rifle should only be part of what many preppers refer to as a layered defense system.  It doesn’t matter if you are bugging out or sheltering, your need to arm yourself with a variety of weaponry, self-defense skills and training is the same.  With that said, if you could have only one firearm in a survival situation it should be a quality rifle.   Continue reading “The Top 6 Survival Rifles and Why You Need One”

My Nature’s Medicine – by Robert J. Rowen, MD

I’m always looking for natural substances that throw a “monkey wrench” into the peculiar metabolism of cancer cells. It’s vital these substances kill cancer cells and leave normal cells untouched. I’ve told you about some of my discoveries in the past. They include resveratrol, green tea, Seanol, and others. But today I’m going to tell you about another plant that safely starves cancer cells as efficiently as a powerful chemo drug. In fact, it even works on pancreatic cancer cells, which are particularly difficult to kill.   Continue reading “Simple plant kills up to 98% of cancer cells – and stops diabetes”
