With a mass shooting at a Pittsburgh synagogue still fresh in America’s memory, some of the nation’s leading gun control advocates took their campaigns this weekend to Texas, a deep-red state with more registered guns than any U.S. state, according to a 2016 report by the U.S. Department of Justice Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

“We must do something — we must stop gun violence,” Gabby Giffords — the former Arizona congresswoman who survived a gunshot to the head during a mass shooting in 2011, said during back-to-back campaign events on Saturday for Democratic candidate Lizzie Pannill Fletcher in Texas’ 7th Congressional District.   Continue reading “Gun control advocates take their campaign to the state with more registered guns than any in the US”

A Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) team, in cooperation with Customs and Border Protection agents, is investigating violation of cabotage rules by U.S. companies and foreign drivers otherwise engaged in cross-border trucking operations. Those rules prevent foreign nationals in the U.S. on B-1 business-visitor visas from competing with U.S. truckers on loads moving point to point in the United States.

Last week in Nogales, Ariz., HSI agents took along local reporters from ABC television affiliate KGUN 9 during an operation in an effort to shine a light on the issue. Deputy Special Agent in Charge Francisco Burrola of HSI out of Tuscon told Overdrive he hopes their enforcement work “sends shockwaves through the trucking industry, particularly along the Southwest border.”   Continue reading “Cabotage rules enforcement spike ongoing from Southern border areas”

Michael R. Bloomberg, the billionaire former mayor of New York City who is considering a 2020 presidential campaign, took another step closer to that possibility Sunday with a $5 million national advertising effort that encourages voters to support Democrats in Tuesday’s midterm elections — and offers Bloomberg’s centrist politics as a counter to President Trump.

Bloomberg’s two-minute television ad, which features him speaking directly to the camera and standing before an American flag, first aired Sunday during CBS’s “60 Minutes.” It will air again Monday during the evening news programs on broadcast networks and on MSNBC and CNN.   Continue reading “Michael Bloomberg to air $5 million in ads before midterm elections to tout Democrats — and himself”

Times are obviously precarious right now, no doubt about it, at times like this we need to start getting our act together, obviously our people are aware of this, but must be repeated. This site was built by people who are some of the most aware out there, we need to keep reminding ourselves of this.

Even if you don’t own a weapon, doesn’t make a beans worth of difference, we should all be well stocked with .223 ball ammo, several cases of it. Be aware of your water supply and water testing kits, medical stores and food stores. If nothing else, have enough food and water on hand, you decide for how long.   Continue reading “Time To Start Buying More Ammo – Food Stores – Medical Supply – Think About Water”

American Thinker – by E. Jeffrey Ludwig

In the 1960s, an informed but naïve undergraduate, I was walking across the campus of the University of Pennsylvania with the Chairman of the Chemistry Department, Prof. Charles C. Price.  He told me that he was president of the United World Federalists, and asked if I knew what that organization was.  When I said that I did not, he replied that they believed in a one-world government that would grow out of the United Nations.  I was nonplussed as I had never heard anyone suggest that idea before.  To me, the United Nations was a benevolent organization dedicated to pressuring the world community in the direction of peace, and to operating charitable programs to help the struggling, impoverished peoples of the world.   I imagined the UN as a kind of United Way on a worldwide scale.    Continue reading “The UN Wants to be Our World Government By 2030”

Thousands of court cases across Colorado — hundreds of them involving violent felonies — are hidden from public view, concealed behind judges’ orders that can remain in effect for years, The Denver Post has found.

More than 6,700 civil and criminal cases have been restricted from public access since 2013, usually by judges who agreed to a request from prosecutors or defense lawyers to shield them, The Post found. Of those, 3,076 are still under suppression orders that keep the details away from the public — 345 are felony criminal cases — as they work their way through the legal system, according to state computer records.   Continue reading “Shrouded justice: Thousands of Colorado court cases hidden from public view on judges’ orders”

SHTF Plan – by Mac Slavo

Genetically engineered viruses could very well become the next generation of warfare. Deadly viruses modified in labs could be released eliminating entire communities of people as they infect making them a valuable asset to militaries worldwide.

As dystopian as that sounds, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is already working on a project called Insect Allies which will use insects to infect crops with genetically modified viruses that edit the crops’ genetic profile to make them more resilient against disease, as well as natural and manufactured threats to the food supply.   Continue reading “The Next Generation Of Warfare: Genetically Engineered VIRUSES”

The plaintiffs allege that the United States government’s affirmative actions caused climate change, violated the youngest generation’s constitutional rights to life, liberty, and property, and failed to protect essential public trust resources.   Continue reading “Children Change The Climate In The US Supreme Court — 1st Climate Lawsuit Goes Forward”

FALFURRIAS, Tex. —Gun-carrying civilian groups and border vigilantes have heard a call to arms in President Trump’s warnings about threats to American security posed by caravans of Central American migrants moving through Mexico. They’re packing coolers and tents, oiling rifles and tuning up aerial drones, with plans to form caravans of their own and trail American troops to the border.

“We’ll observe and report, and offer aid in any way we can,” said Shannon McGauley, a bail bondsman in the Dallas suburbs who is president of the Texas Minutemen. McGauley said he was preparing to head for the Rio Grande in coming days.  Continue reading “U.S. militia groups head to border, stirred by Trump’s call to arms”

Billionaire investor George Soros has repeatedly denied rumors that he is helping to finance the migrant caravans making their way up from Honduras and Guatemala through Mexico with the ultimate aim of reaching the US.

But that’s about to change, as the “Open Society” founder – who famously financed much of the opposition to Trump SCOTUS pick Brett Kavanaugh – is now partnering with Mastercard to hand out money (in the form of ‘investment capital’) to migrants, refugees and “others struggling within their communities worldwide,” according to Reuters. Through their partnership, Soros is effectively providing open financial support for migrants and refugees seeking to enter the US and Europe.   Continue reading “Soros Partners With Mastercard To Hand Out Money To Migrants”

The 14th Amendment to the Constitution was ratified on July 9, 1868, and granted citizenship to “all persons born or naturalized in the United States,” which included former slaves recently freed. In addition, it forbids states from denying any person “life, liberty or property, without due process of law” or to “deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.” By directly mentioning the role of the states, the 14th Amendment greatly expanded the protection of civil rights to all Americans and is cited in more litigation than any other amendment.   Continue reading “14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution”

RONALD SYLVAIN WAS feeling confident as he approached the U.S.-Canada border crossing in Champlain, New York in a taxi with his wife and their 9-month-old son last July. The 36-year-old Haitian national had been assured that it was best to “do it legally.” After all, they are professionals: Ronald is an economist and his wife Pamela is a nurse. While other refugees opted to roll their suitcases into Canada over a narrow dirt path five miles to the west at Roxham Road, border agents would surely understand Ronald’s asylum request, based on the fact that gangs in Haiti had threatened him.   Continue reading ““The United States Is Not A Safe Country”: Canadian Advocates Want To End A Policy That Turns Asylum-Seekers Back To U.S.”
