GOP House leaders are preparing a huge appropriations bill for a vote next week — and top GOP legislators want to include a rider that could allow employers to replace at least 100,000 blue-collar Americans with up to 264,000 foreign temporary H-2B workers.

The plan would actually cost taxpayers billions of dollars each year, because the unemployed Americans workers won’t pay taxes, but would get unemployment checks and welfare aid from the taxpayers.   Continue reading “GOP Legislators Push Plan That Could Replace Americans, Import 264,000 Foreign Workers”

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) – Facebook, Google and Twitter are stepping up efforts to combat online propaganda and recruiting by Islamic militants, but the Internet companies are doing it quietly to avoid the perception that they are helping the authorities police the Web.

On Friday, Facebook Inc said it took down a profile that the company believed belonged to San Bernardino shooter Tashfeen Malik, who with her husband is accused of killing 14 people in a mass shooting that the FBI is investigating as an “act of terrorism.”   Continue reading “Social media companies step up battle against militant propaganda”

BERLIN — Germany’s foreign intelligence agency believes Saudi Arabia’s ambitious defense minister could endanger the Gulf kingdom’s ties with regional allies by attempting to cement his place in the royal succession, according to a memo released Wednesday.

It is unusual for the BND spy agency to publicly release such a blunt assessment on a country that is considered an ally of the West. Germany has long-standing political and economic ties with Saudi Arabia.   Continue reading “German Intelligence Warns Saudi Arabia Is ‘Destabilizing Arab World’”

Make no mistake about it the San Bernardino gun control hoax is a scam to the extreme. This is made glaringly clear by the staging perpetrated in the attempt to create realism, where a car is show shot-up and where, then, what appear to be corpses are shown on the pavement.   Continue reading “Dead Muslims in San Bernadino Hoax are Dummies Not Humans”

National Organizations With Anti-Gun Policies

All have officially endorsed anti-gun positions.   Continue reading “List of Anti Gun Groups, People”

We are getting bombarded with gun control in NYC.

New York Times

The New York Times is running an editorial on its front page on Saturday, the first time the paper has done so since 1920, calling for greater regulation on guns in the aftermath of a spate of mass shootings.

The editorial, headlined “The Gun Epidemic,” describes it as “a moral outrage and a national disgrace that people can legally purchase weapons designed specifically to kill with brutal speed and efficiency.” It suggests drastically reducing the number of firearms, and “eliminating some large categories of weapons and ammunition.”   Continue reading “Gun Debate Yields Page One Editorial”
