TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras (AP) — Protests were growing in Honduras as incumbent President Juan Orlando Hernandez emerged with a slim lead Thursday for re-election following a reported computer glitch that shut down vote counting for several hours.

Challenger Salvador Nasralla has alleged fraud and said he won’t respect the official results. He’s watched an initial five-point lead diminish in recent days as official results have trickled out. By early Thursday, Hernandez was ahead by about 22,000 votes, with about 88 percent of Sunday’s votes processed. He had 42.4 percent of the vote to Nasralla’s 41.7 percent.   Continue reading “Protests rise as vote count in Honduras drags on”

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — While U.S. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi faced criticism for not being more strident in responding to sexual harassment allegations, back in her home state of California her daughter is throwing verbal hand grenades, alleging state lawmakers are protecting rapists at the Capitol.

At a hearing Tuesday on the California Legislature’s sexual harassment policies, Christine Pelosi produced gasps when she said “everybody here knows we have rapists in this building” as well as “enablers.” While many others testified, sometimes angrily, about a dysfunctional system they say protects the powerful and encourages silence from victims, Christine Pelosi’s comments stood apart with their bare-knuckle boldness.  Continue reading “Pelosi’s daughter: California lawmakers enable harassment”

Imagine police knocking on your door because you posted a ‘troubling comment’ on a social media website.

Imagine a judge forcing you to be jailed, sorry I meant hospitalized, because a computer program found your comment(s) ‘troubling’.

You can stop imagining, this is really happening.   Continue reading “Facebook’s new suicide detection A.I., could put thousands of innocent people behind bars”

A lawyer for former DNC IT staffer Imran Awan is scrambling to block evidence found on a hidden laptop which may contain proof of a massive spy ring operating at the highest levels of Congress, in what may be the largest breach of National Security in U.S. history.

Awan, a Pakistani national, worked for dozens of Democratic members of Congress along with his wife, two brothers and a friend. Following the publication of DNC emails by WikiLeaks in the lead-up to the 2016 election, Congressional investigators discovered that the Awans had a secret server being housed by the House Democratic Caucus backed up to an offsite Dropbox account.   Continue reading “DNC Lawyer Scrambles To Block Evidence From Hidden Laptop Tied To Wasserman Schultz”

For weeks, Donald Trump gleefully boasted about the job his administration had done in helping Puerto Rico weather the monstrous Hurricane Maria, particularly noting that only 16 people had supposedly been killed. “Look at a real catastrophe like Katrina and… you look at what happened here,” Trump said of the death toll in New Orleans while visiting San Juan in October. “Sixteen people [dead] versus in the thousands. You can be very proud of all of your people and all of our people working together.”  Continue reading “Hurricane Maria Killed More Than 1,000 in Puerto Rico, New Study Suggests”

PHILADELPHIA (WTXF) – A controversial bill is currently working its way through city hall designed to regulate ‘stop and go’ liquor stores. One part of the bill would force business owners to take down bulletproof glass inside their stores. But at what cost to their safety?

Broad Deli sits on the corner of the 2200 block of North Broad, inside a wall of bulletproof glass separates customers from workers.

“The most important thing is safety and the public’s safety,” owner Rich Kim said.  Continue reading “Controversial bill would force business owners in Philadelphia to take down bulletproof glass”

National reciprocity for concealed carry passed the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday is expected to receive a floor vote before the end of the year.

The Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 was introduced by Rep. Richard Hudson (R-NC) on January 3, 2017. It changes federal law that so concealed carry permits are treated like driver’s licenses, making a permit from one state valid in the other 49. This would fix the complicated and often confusing patchwork of concealed carry laws currently in effect throughout the country.   Continue reading “National Reciprocity for Concealed Carry Passes, Next Stop House Floor”

LAS VEGAS (Reuters) – Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy won a court order releasing him from jail to home confinement for the duration of his federal conspiracy and assault trial in Las Vegas, but he has opted to remain locked up on principle, his attorney said on Wednesday.

U.S. District Judge Gloria Navarro has ruled that the 71-year-old cattleman and three others on trial with him, including sons Ammon and Ryan Bundy, may remain essentially under house arrest, rather than behind bars, while the case proceeds in court.  Continue reading “Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy declines release from jail during trial”

Detmold, Germany – An 89-year-old German woman was sentenced to 14 months in prison for incitement of racial hatred after losing an appeal on a prior conviction.

Ursula Haverbeck, often referred to in the German press as the “Nazi Grandma,” is known for extremist views that have run afoul of German hate speech laws in the past—with courts having previously given her fines and another suspended sedition sentence, according to Fox News.   Continue reading “89-Year-Old Grandma Loses Appeal, Sentenced to Prison for Questioning the Holocaust”

I’m not recommending a treatment for aluminum here. I’m reporting on a very interesting preliminary study.

First of all, there is widespread agreement that aluminum is a neurotoxin. Whether it enters the body through vaccination, environmental pollution, geoengineering, or any other route, it can pass through the blood-brain barrier and wreak havoc.   Continue reading “Study: can toxic aluminum be removed from the body by drinking water containing silicon?”

Immigration officers based in New York City arrested 42 criminal aliens released by sanctuary jurisdictions. Thirteen other foreign nationals were also arrested as part of a six-day targeted operation carried out by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations officers began the operation on November 13 and concluded it shortly before Thanksgiving. In total, officers arrested 55 illegal aliens. Forty-two of those arrested had been in New York law enforcement custody and were released despite ICE having placed immigration detainers on the aliens, according to information obtained by Breitbart Texas from ICE officials.   Continue reading “ICE Arrests 42 Criminal Aliens Released by Sanctuary New York”

According to multiple reports in Middle East regional sources, China plans to send elite military units to Syria to advise and assist the Syrian Army in an attempt to root out the country’s terrorist insurgency, especially Chinese Islamist foreign fighters who have shown up in increasing numbers in Syria’s north since the start of the conflict.

If confirmed this won’t be the first time China – one of the five veto-wielding powers of the UN Security Council – has sent assistance to the Assad government: according to previous reporting by Middle East Eye, China began quietly sending soldiers in an advisory capacity into Syria earlier this year to assist government forces in weapons systems, intelligence collection, logistics, and medicine. But this certainly marks a dramatic and more public escalation in terms of Chinese operations in the region as Beijing will reportedly send special forces to work closely with government troops, and likely in coordination with the Russians as well.   Continue reading “China To Deploy Elite Troops In Syria To Fight Alongside Assad’s Army”

In one of the most important Fourth Amendment battles of the digital age, the Supreme Court is preparing to tackle a case involving law enforcement accessing cellphone records without a warrant.

On Wednesday the US Supreme Court is scheduled to address the case of Carpenter v. United States to determine whether or not law enforcement should be required to obtain a warrant before accessing the cellphone records of an individual. The case deals with a set of armed robberies that took place between December 2010 and March 2011. Several men worked together to rob RadioShack and T-Mobile stores in the Michigan and Ohio areas, stealing cell phones and holding store employees and customers hostage in the process.  Continue reading “Supreme Court to Debate Warrantless Collection Of Cellphone Records in Huge Fourth Amendment Battle”

For 41 years until his demise in October 2011, Muammar Gaddafi did some truly amazing things for his country and repeatedly tried to unite and empower the whole of Africa.   Continue reading “Libya: Ten Things About Gaddafi They Don’t Want You to Know”

In 1966 the Highway Safety Act was passed and congress soon tied the receiving of highway funds to the passage of motorcycle helmet laws by individual states. Avid motorcyclists were a rarity in those days, mostly young, and not an obvious voting threat to state politicians. Every state except California passed a mandatory helmet law. Oddly enough, during this period, the Hells Angels (little known outside of California) were receiving national press coverage over an alleged gang rape.  Though the charges were dropped, the notoriety of motorcycle club members and the threats of legislation contrary to a two-wheeled lifestyle, would form a disastrous mix a half-century later in Waco, Texas.   Continue reading “Waco”
