There’s been so much debate over Donald Trump’s statement that the U.S. should ban all Muslims attempting to enter the country. We are going to look at one major question: is it lawful?
This is a Reality Check you won’t see anywhere else.
“Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what the hell is going on.” Continue reading “Reality Check: Trump Right About Legal Authority to Ban Muslim Immigrants, Other Pres.

New footage of a fatal police shooting in Texas has been released. The nearly hour-long video shows the 41-year-old suspect, Gilbert Flores, surrendering with his arms up as officers open fire and kill him.
Flores was shot and killed on August 28. The first video of the incident, filmed at some distance, emerged a few days later. In it, Flores appears to raise his hands as Bexar County Sheriff’s Office deputies Greg Vasquez and Robert Sanchez approach. One of the suspect’s hands is obscured by a utility pole, however. Continue reading “New footage shows Texas police open fire after suspect raises arms”
WASHINGTON (AP) — Working to ease public jitters ahead of the holidays, President Barack Obama will use visits to the Pentagon and the National Counterterrorism Center this week to try to explain his strategy for stopping the Islamic State group abroad and its sympathizers at home.
Obama’s high-profile visits to agencies charged with keeping the U.S. safe follow an Oval Office address Dec. 6 that aimed to reassure the public but that critics said failed to do the job. Obama is also hoping to draw a contrast with Donald Trump and his inflammatory remarks about Muslims, which Obama’s administration has warned emboldens extremists looking to pull the U.S. into a war with Islam.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Three-quarters of California’s paroled sex offenders previously banned from living near parks, schools and other places where children congregate now face no housing restrictions after the state changed its policy in response to a court ruling that said the prohibition only applies to child molesters, according to data compiled at the request of The Associated Press.
The rate is far higher than officials initially predicted. The state expected half of the 5,900 parolees would have restrictions on where they can live or sleep lifted when the corrections department changed its policy following the March ruling. Instead, data shows that 76 percent of offenders no longer are subject to the voter-approved restrictions. Continue reading “Most sex offender parolees exempt from ban”
Private companies in Massachusetts like the Cambridge Health Alliance, which operates three hospitals in the Boston area recently staged elaborate mass shooter drills. Others, like the Cranston, R.I., manufacturing firm Taco Inc., put their employees through classroom training to identify exits, hiding places, and methods of fighting back.

The circle of fear is nearly complete; schools, colleges, sports stadiums, malls, hospitals and large companies are staging mass-shooter drills across the country. From California, to Maine and Hawaiito Alaska, Puerto Rico Continue reading “Hospitals and private companies are conducting mass shooter drills with police”

Putin has been very cautious in his responses to NATO aggression in both the Ukraine and Syria. The Turkish economy has already been severely damaged since that Russian SU-24 jet was shot down. The Turkish bond and stock markets are collapsing. Tourism and other industries have taken as much of a blow as Russia would care to administer at this time. In keeping with Putin’s less bellicose responses and his long range goal of dethroning the dollar as the world’s reserve currency, I would offer the following suggestions: Continue reading “Putin’s Options For Iraq And Turkey”

Shortly after the San Bernardino shooting, the New York Times made a big deal out of posting an editorial on the front page for the first time in nearly a hundred years. The article was a scathing condemnation of our nation’s gun laws, as well as America’s gun culture. However, their impassioned plea for more gun legislation hasn’t had its intended effect.

Over the years there has been a politically correct progression of words to describe those who come to the United States illegally. At first it was illegal aliens, then illegal immigrants, followed by undocumented immigrants or undocumented workers. Of course, the perpetually offended PC crowd is always looking for gentle new words to describe the obvious, so they’ve come up with something that defies all logic.
