Cleveland – by Cory Shaffer

CLEVELAND, Ohio — Cuyahoga County prosecutors had little to say Monday about a plan by a group of community leaders to sidestep their office and file affidavits seeking charges against two Cleveland police officers involved in the November killing of 12-year-old Tamir Rice.

Rather than wait for the county prosecutor’s office to present evidence of the shooting to a grand jury — a process that could take weeks — the group plans to use an obscure state law that allows anyone with knowledge of the facts of a case to formally ask a judge to issue an arrest warrant, according to the New York Times.   Continue reading “Community group seeks charges against Cleveland police in Tamir Rice killing”

The West Wing at the White House has been evacuated shortly after the Capitol community had its own scare when a bomb threat was phoned into a Senate office building.

It is unclear whether the two events are related and no reason has been given for the West Wing evacuation. It’s also unclear whether staff was also evacuated.   Continue reading “West Wing Evacuated Shortly After Capitol Bomb Threat, Authorities Say”

DANNEMORA, New York — As the massive manhunt for two escaped murderers entered a fourth day, investigators were simultaneously searching for answers on how the duo brazenly broke out of maximum-security prison.

There has been no sign of Richard Matt and David Sweat since they were reported missing on Saturday. Investigators say they used power tools to cut through brick and metal walls and pipes before breaking through a manhole to freedom. Hundreds of law-enforcement officers have fanned out across the area as part of a multi-agency manhunt, and New York State has offered a $100,000 reward leading to the convicts’ capture.   Continue reading “Massive manhunt for 2 escaped inmates enters 4th day”

In an apparent effort to further depersonalize medicine, the National Science Foundation (NSF) is funding research into an implantable microchip capable of digitally monitoring the health of patients and reporting their vital statistics to doctors’ offices without the need for an actual doctor-patient interaction.

Reports indicate that NSF has given a $5,070 grant to a graduate fellowship project tasked with developing an implantable antenna, of sorts, to keep track of patients’ vital signs. The device, after being implanted just below a patient’s skin, would be capable of monitoring medical devices, for instance, and both uploading and downloading data for use in patient tracking.   Continue reading “Conventional doctors push trackable microchip implants to avoid having to provide manual health care”

Americans that oppose illegal immigration have been called racist and unsympathetic?  Liberals have even gone out of their way to remove the word “illegal” and replace it with “undocumented.” They demand those here illegally receive the same benefits as Americans.  However, how does Mexico treat those entering their country illegally?

According to Mexico’s immigration laws, every article of law controls illegal immigration into Mexican territory.  If you immigrate to Mexico, Article 32 states you must speak Spanish and must be a professional who is useful to the Mexican society.  There are no bilingual programs in the school and no pressing 2 for English.  All business must be conducted in Spanish.    Continue reading “What is Mexico’s Immigration Law?”

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama says he has no alternate plan if the Supreme Court invalidates a key benefit of his health care law and he places the burden on the Republican-controlled Congress to fix the law if the high court wipes out insurance for millions of Americans.

Voicing confidence he will prevail before the court, Obama insisted Monday that the health care law is working and that the justices “will play it straight” and leave the law intact. Should he lose, he added: “Congress could fix this whole thing with a one-sentence provision.”   Continue reading “Obama: Congress can fix health law if court rules against it”

McKINNEY, Texas (AP) — Hundreds of demonstrators marched Monday night to the pool where a white police officer pinned a black teenage girl to the ground and pulled a gun on others over the weekend. The protesters carried signs that included the phrases, “My skin color is not a crime” and “Fire Eric Casebolt.”

Some community activists in McKinney, an affluent, predominantly white Dallas suburb, have accused Casebolt, a 41-year-old officer, of racism. Others urged calm until the facts are investigated. According to neighbors, a woman who lives in the community reserved the pool for a party, said Benét Embry, a black local radio personality who witnessed the Friday incident. The homeowners’ association limits the number of guests each homeowner may have at the pool to two. But about 130 people, mostly kids, showed up. At one point, several kids began jumping over the fence to get into the pool area and were causing a disturbance, Embry said, and a couple of fights broke out.   Continue reading “Protests follow video of officer drawing gun on black teens”

“Everything Secret Degenerates”

Everyone knows Lord Acton’s famous quote:

Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

But few have heard this equally profound quote from Lord Acton:

Every thing secret degenerates, even the administration of justice; nothing is safe that does not show how it can bear discussion and publicity.   Continue reading “Government Is Using Secrecy As a Weapon. Mass Surveillance on all Citizens”

In a lengthy article published Sunday, the New York Times provided a glimpse into the criminal and grisly methods employed by Seal Team 6, a secret unit within the Pentagon’s Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC).

The unit was made famous by the phony accounts of its assassination of Osama bin Laden in Pakistan, cover stories that were blown last month by veteran journalist Seymour Hersh, who exposed the operation as the cold-blooded murder of an unarmed and decrepit individual who had been fingered by Pakistani intelligence.   Continue reading “Washington’s Death Squads”
