CINCINNATI (AP) — Prosecutors in Ohio say a T-shirt with a Confederate flag emblem worn by a white police officer under his uniform is relevant evidence for countering his claim that he feared for his life when he shot an unarmed black motorist.

Hamilton County prosecutors are opposing a defense bid to keep the shirt out of ex-University of Cincinnati Officer Ray Tensing’s murder retrial. The defense says the T-shirt isn’t relevant, but could prejudice the jury.   Continue reading “Ohio prosecutor: Officer’s Confederate flag T-shirt relevant”

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea’s latest ballistic missile test may be nearly as big a deal as its propaganda machine claims. Although outside experts see several places where North Korea is likely stretching the truth, the missile launched Sunday appears to be the most powerful the country has ever tested. Some analysts believe the missile, if proven in further tests, could reach Alaska and Hawaii if fired on a normal, instead of a lofted, trajectory.   Continue reading “AP Explains: North Korea missile test is huge step forward”

HAMAM AL-ALIL, IRAQ (AP) — The fight to retake Mosul from the Islamic State group is approaching its “final stages,” a senior U.S. official said Monday. Brett McGurk, special presidential envoy for the global coalition against the IS, said Iraqi forces are “completely defeating” IS in one of the most difficult urban battles since World War II. But local Iraqi officials say they will need more funding from the U.S. and others in the international community to rebuild in territory recently retaken from the extremists.   Continue reading “US envoy: Fight to retake Mosul in ‘final stages’”

WEB Notes: If you are a man or woman of God then you need to stand for your Father right now. ‘What do I have to do‘. Simply refuse to do business with those who support homosexuality. Your Father is not okay with it. He has never been okay with it and He never will be okay with it. If you cannot do this simple thing, shop else where what kind of Christian are you? If that offends you then you should be offended. How offended do you think your Father is? How do you think it makes Him feel to see you a “Christian” supporting organizations who support homosexuality? It is a slap in His face, by you His child. Grow a backbone and stand up like and man or woman of God. Stand for your Father.

Let’s imagine a scenario in which you’re charged with a traffic offense you didn’t commit, and the police order your car impounded because of it.

Further imagine the company that towed your car sells it before you can persuade a court to dismiss the bogus charge. And that you have a loan on that car and want to protect your credit score.

That railroad tunnel filled with barrels of leaking radiation was an accident waiting to happen. Eugene Wigner was a mathematician who worked on the Manhattan project.

Since the dawn of time there has been the truth and the lie, the truth being reality and the lie a non-reality.  Christians speak of the Garden of Eden, of the Tree of Knowledge, that knowledge being of good and evil, the truth and the lie.

As a child growing up the words most spoken to me by my father were keep your mouth shut, but when you speak, speak the truth.  I believed this to be just my father’s obsession with having me turn out to be a decent human being, but more and more as I faced a world of lies, I found it to be a whole lot more and became obsessed with understanding this phenomenon.   Continue reading “Truths and Lies, What Difference Can it Make?”

The Economic Collapse – by Michael Snyder

If you want to permanently fix America’s economy, there really is no other choice.  Even before Ron Paul’s rallying cry of “End The Fed” shook America during the peak of the Tea Party movement, I was a huge advocate of shutting down the Federal Reserve.  Because no matter how hard we try to patch it up otherwise, the truth is that our debt-based financial system has been fundamentally flawed from the very beginning, and the Federal Reserve is the very heart of that system.  The following is a free preview of an upcoming book that I am working on about how to turn this country is a more positive direction…  Continue reading “The Federal Reserve Must Go”

The mayor of Charlottesville, Va., condemned Saturday night’s demonstration by a large group of torch-bearing white nationalists who were protesting the removal of statues honoring Confederate Gens. Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson.

“This event involving torches at night in Lee Park was either profoundly ignorant or was designed to instill fear in our minority populations in a way that hearkens back to the days of the KKK,” Charlottesville Mayor Mike Signer said in a statement. “Either way, as mayor of this city, I want everyone to know this: We reject this intimidation. We are a welcoming city, but such intolerance is not welcome here.”   Continue reading “Mayor condemns torch-bearing protesters defending Confederate statue”

The U.S. mainstream media voiced moral outrage when Russian warplanes killed civilians in Aleppo but has gone silent as U.S. warplanes slaughter innocents in Mosul and Raqqa.

April 2017 was another month of mass slaughter and unimaginable terror for the people of Mosul in Iraq and the areas around Raqqa and Tabqa in Syria, as the heaviest, most sustained U.S.-led bombing campaign since the American War in Vietnam entered its 33rd month.   Continue reading “The Silent Slaughter of the US Air War”

There is a particular strain of humanity now deeply rooted in Western culture that we can refer to as the Ivory Tower Man. This individual is the product of an entire cultural philosophy. He is the result of several generations that have faced no immediate danger or challenge to life itself; he is the spawn of the Nanny State. The Ivory Tower Man is found throughout all current age groups and academia is especially rife with this character.   Continue reading “The Ivory Tower Man: Why Academia Hates Guns”

WEB Notes: “JAMA” is an “international peer-reviewed general medical journal”. They are admitting the FDA is approving of drugs that are dangerous to the public. Raise your hand if you are surprised. Yet, “experts” will tell you, hey it is “FDA complaint” so that means it is okay. Go ahead take a jab or two of the latest vaccine, the “experts” say it is safe. Yet, we see here even when they claim it is “safe” 30% is not and causes issues. In my opinion when it comes to vaccines you are better off to eat healthy. That means real food and drinks. Not fast food trash, not constant soda intake. Get some exercise and your body will be able to fend off most illness. Relying on a shot is not the answer though that is what the “experts” tell you. Actually, at some places of employment they will make you sign a paper stating as much and if you decline, well you either lose your job or wear a mask during “flu season”. Let freedom ring, let freedom ring.

A Tolerably Accurate but Brief History of Juries, Grand and Otherwise

Someone once wrote that the origins of the jury, grand or otherwise, are “lost in the mists of antiquity.” That being so, this historical summary omits birth dates and birth places. We also omit quotations, footnotes, and a lengthy bibliography. Instead, we offer several leads to consider if you embark on your own research into the provenance of this ancient institution.

Car and Driver – by Pete Bigelow

California state law permits car owners to cover their legally parked cars to protect them against weather and incidental damage. It’d be easy to assume that, because cars can be covered in their entirety, it would also be perfectly okay for motorists to keep only their license plates covered on those same legally parked vehicles. That’s not necessarily the case: Another law prohibits obscuring the license plates of parked cars in California.  Continue reading “In California, a Failed Fight for Car Owners’ Privacy Rights”
