BISBEE, AZ — Bisbee Police say a moving truck filled with 4,700 pounds of marijuana lead officers to a house in Naco, Arizona, where ICE and Border Patrol agents made another significant discovery.

Police say they first pulled over a man driving a moving truck along Highway 92 and Wilson Road late last night.

The driver gave officers permission to search the vehicle. That’s when officers discovered more than 200 bundles of marijuana packed inside of the moving truck. The pot has a street value of about $3 million.   Continue reading “Bisbee Police make $3 million marijuana bust; 2 people arrested”

At least five drones were spotted flying over the center of Paris with police unable to find who is operating them. The pilotless aircraft were previously sighted near the presidential palace and nuclear plants in what is becoming a recurring problem.

The sightings of the drones come at a time when security has been heightened in the French capital following last month’s terrorist attacks, which killed 17 people. In previous months, they have also been witnessed near strategically important facilities, like nuclear power plants and nuclear submarine bases.   Continue reading “US Embassy, Eiffel Tower: Unknown drones buzz Paris landmarks”

HOUSTON (AP) — Evidence from more than 6,600 rape kits that went untested for years in Houston have turned up 850 hits in the FBI’s nationwide database of DNA profiles, marking a major step in the city’s $6 million effort to address the backlog, officials announced Monday.

Charges have been filed against 29 people, six of whom have been convicted, since the city launched an effort in 2013 to test 6,663 rape kits — some of which dated back nearly three decades. Testing was completed in the fall, and the results have now been uploaded to a database used by investigators nationwide to compare DNA profiles of possible suspects, Mayor Annise Parker said.   Continue reading “850 DNA Matches In FBI Database After Houston Clears Rape Kit Backlog”

I’ve been watching earthquake activity in Japan for a couple years now. The reason for that is that I expect a huge earthquake any time. I also expect that to signal ‘The Day’ for which everyone has been keeping an eye out. The day when all the rules go out the window, and it’s every man for himself.

I had always expected that quake to be a natural occurrence.

Along the way, though, something curious has cropped up, and I’m beginning to think the ‘Big One’ may turn out to be man-made when it occurs.   Continue reading “Is Japan Being Extorted?”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Defying the Republican-run Congress, President Barack Obama rejected a bill Tuesday to approve construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline, wielding his veto power for only the third time in his presidency.

Obama offered no indication of whether he’ll eventually issue a permit for the pipeline, whose construction has become a flashpoint in the U.S. debate about environmental policy and climate change. Instead, Obama sought to reassert his authority to make the decision himself, rebuffing GOP lawmakers who will control both the House and Senate for the remainder of the president’s term.   Continue reading “Defying GOP, Obama vetoes Keystone XL pipeline bill”

The Chicago police department operates an off-the-books interrogation compound, rendering Americans unable to be found by family or attorneys while locked inside what lawyers say is the domestic equivalent of a CIA black site.

The facility, a nondescript warehouse on Chicago’s west side known as Homan Square, has long been the scene of secretive work by special police units. Interviews with local attorneys and one protester who spent the better part of a day shackled in Homan Square describe operations that deny access to basic constitutional rights.   Continue reading “The disappeared: Chicago police detain Americans at abuse-laden ‘black site’”

Four years ago cops from the King’s County Sheriff’s Office and the state Department of Corrections (DOC) in Washington busted into the home of Dustin Theoharis and shot the unarmed man 16 times as he lay in bed. Theoharis had at least a dozen surgeries but survived. He sued the county, settling for $3 million, and has also sued the DOC.

Both the county and the department have ruled the shootings justified, despite the lack of a firearm and the fact that the two cops shot a man 16 times as he lay in bed. Earlier this month a judge ruled Theoharis’ excessive force lawsuit against the DOC could move forward, citing the cops’ questionable testimony (they didn’t provide a statement for weeks after the shooting).   Continue reading “Prosecutors: Not Enough Evidence Cops Who Shot Unarmed Man 16 Times As He Lay In Bed Acted With ‘Malice’”

The UN wants substantial regulatory control over what can be broadcast on your TV. Relax, they are doing it for the kids, right?  The UN’s World Health Organization (WHO) has decided to seek the oversight on what commercials for food aimed at kids can be aired.
And after that they could cancel all cooking shows and Paula Deen would be taken off the air.  Oh, wait.  The liberals already got to her.  Rachael Ray then.  And TV shows would have to keep away from food.   Continue reading “The UN Seeks Control Over What is Broadcast on American TV”

It currently has a “no guns allowed” policy, with mall officials claiming the entire facility is private property. State Representative Tony Cornish is the chair of the House Public Safety Committee.   Continue reading “Lawmaker Challenging Mall Of America’s Gun Policy After Threat”

The National Security Agency director, Mike Rogers, on Monday sought to calm a chorus of doubts about the government’s plans to maintain built-in access to data held by US technology companies, saying such “backdoors” would not be harmful to privacy, would not fatally compromise encryption and would not ruin international markets for US technology products.

Rogers mounted an elaborate defense of Barack Obama’s evolving cybersecurity strategy in an appearance before an audience of cryptographers, tech company security officers and national security reporters at the New America Foundation in Washington. In an hour-long question-and-answer session, Rogers said a cyber-attack against Sony pictures by North Korea last year showed the urgency and difficulty of defending against potential cyber threats.   Continue reading “NSA director defends plan to maintain ‘backdoors’ into technology companies”
