The New American – by William F. Jasper

The migrant tsunami that is already deluging the European Union is on track to also swamp America. A huge nationwide “refugee resettlement” network is already in place to ramp up the escalation planned by the U.S. State Department for acceptance of United Nations-designated migrants. A map of the United States produced by the State Department’s Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (shown below) shows the areas where its “contractor” organizations are set up to bring the migrant wave to what the State Department propagandists calls “welcoming communities.”   Continue reading “Is Obama’s Refugee “Surge” Coming to Your Town?”

Breitbart – by Pamela Geller

On Wednesday, Attorney General Loretta Lynch announced at the United Nations that her office would be working in several American cities to form what she called the Strong Cities Network (SCN), a law enforcement initiative that would encompass the globe.

This amounts to nothing less than the overriding of American laws, up to and including the United States Constitution, in favor of United Nations laws that would henceforth be implemented in the United States itself – without any consultation of Congress at all.   Continue reading “Obama Administration and UN Announce Global Police Force to Fight ‘Extremism’ In US”

—Resentencing delayed to October

An eastern Oregon family with a long history in ranching is fighting to keep its cow/calf operation afloat against an onslaught of blows from the federal government. Two members of the Hammond family have been charged under the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 for starting two range fires that ended up on federal land.

One of the fires, set in 2001, was a prescribed burn on Hammond’s private property; a routine rangeimprovement practice. The other fire, set on Hammond’s private property in 2006, was a back-burn intended to protect the ranch’s winter pasture from a lightening fire on adjacent federal land. Combined, the two fires burned about 140 acres of federal land. Now, although two Hammond family members have already done time in federal prison for setting these fires, they are facing a resentencing—now scheduled for late October—that could land them back in prison.   Continue reading “Additional jail time for ranchers’ range fires?”

The Los Angeles Times reports that after searching Umpqua Community College (UCC), Oregon and Chris Harper Mercer’s residence law enforcement officials recovered a total of 13 firearms belonging to Mercer–all of which were purchased “legally.”

According to the Times, law enforcement officials found six guns were at UCC and seven more at Mercer’s apartment.   Continue reading “LA Times: All Guns Used In Oregon Attack Were Purchased ‘Legally’”

Raw Story – by ARTURO GARCIA

Tennessee Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey (R) was quickly criticized after calling on Christians to arm themselves following Thursday’s mass shooting in Roseburg, Oregon.

According to The Tennessean, Ramsey made the remarks on his official Facebook page.

“While this is not the time for widespread panic, it is a time to prepare,” he wrote on Friday morning. “I would encourage my fellow Christians who are serious about their faith to think about getting a handgun carry permit. I have always believed that it is better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it. Our enemies are armed. We must do likewise.”   Continue reading “Tennessee lieutenant governor wants ‘serious’ Christians to arm themselves after Oregon shootings”

The Onion

WASHINGTON—Researchers at the Urban Institute published a study Friday confirming that a sharp increase in gun sales nationwide would be the most concrete result of the impassioned pro-gun-control speech that President Obama delivered following yesterday’s mass shooting in Oregon.   Continue reading “Report: Increase In Gun Sales To Be Most Concrete Result Of Obama’s Pro-Gun-Control Speech”

Senator Blumenthal

This morning at the Hartford Legislative Office Building, U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) announced new legislation that would bar gun sales until background checks are complete. Congresswoman Elizabeth Esty (D-5), Newtown Police Chief Michael Kehoe and Connecticut gun safety advocates also joined in the call for legislative action to end the dangerous practice of default sales if checks are pending beyond 72 hours.   Continue reading “No Check, No Gun: Blumenthal, Murphy Introduce Legislation Barring Gun Sales Until Background Checks Are Complete”

Less than six hours after the mass shooting today in Roseburg, Ore., President Obama called a press conference to demand new gun laws, a move he predicted would spur critics to accuse him of politicizing the issue. If they don’t accuse him of that, they might accuse him of making the tragedy about himself.

During today’s 12-minute address, President Obama referred to himself 28 times. (For those counting at home, that’s almost three times per minute.)   Continue reading “In 12 Minute Speech To America About Mass Shooting, Obama Refers To Himself 28 Times”

It’s not exactly news that the media is there to help Obama. It’s not even news that the White House feeds talking points to the media. It just doesn’t usually do so at press conference while saying, “Print this.”

So now we’ve hit a new low in the pathetic disgusting relationship between Obama and his media lapdogs.   Continue reading “Obama Now Openly Telling Media what Propaganda to Print”

My Budget 360

The middle class destruction train is moving full steam ahead if we are to examine Census figures closely.  And the American male has a first-class ticket on this express train to wage destruction.  According to the recently released Census figures full-time working males are earning less than they did in 1973 adjusting for inflation.  Purchasing power matters greatly even though there is this ongoing narrative that we are experiencing very little inflation.  Has anyone taken a look at housing costs, healthcare costs, or even college tuition?  The problem at the core of this salary stagnation is that productivity gains are simply not trickling down to the typical worker.  The Great Recession largely smashed male employment.  Males lost 3 out of 4 jobs in the Great Recession.  The financial crisis impacted everyone, male and female, but there is some interesting data to be examined from the figures for full-time working males.   Continue reading “Wage Apocalypse for the American man: Typical male worker earned less in 2014 than in 1973.”

Is it snowing in India’s tropical southern city of Bangalore?

The pictures below would certainly make you think so.

Unfortunately, the reality is quite different: what looks like snow is actually harmful snow-white froth that floats up from the city’s largest lake and spills over into neighbouring areas.   Continue reading “India Bangalore lake of toxic snowy froth”

The United States simply is not growing enough vegetables to meet its needs, data collected by the USDA’s Economic Research Service indicates.

Around 1.65 cups of vegetables were available per person per day in the United States in 2013, even though dietary guidelines recommend a person consume 2.5 to 3 cups of vegetables a day, NPR reported, using government data.   Continue reading “The American Food Shortage You Knew Nothing About”

The Sleuth Journal – by Gaye Levy

When it comes to survival medicine, I make no claim of being an expert.  I am, after all, a mere layman with no medical training.  On the other hand, I do possess a good deal of common sense so when something seems a bit off, I do my own research and make decisions based upon data and not upon supposition.

Something that has always been “off” to me are expiration dates on pharmaceuticals.  Why is it that drugs always expire exactly one year after the date they were filled?  The truth, as I wrote about in The Myth of Expiration Dates on Drugs and Prescription Meds, is that those expiration dates are often bogus.   Continue reading “What You Need To Know About Using Old Drugs For Survival”
