Where civilians were concerned, Nazi Germany in the 1920’s was the model gun free society and by the late 1930’s, it was even better. By then it had evolved into a place where guns were much less regulated, but prevented the “wrong sorts of people” getting hold of them. Continue reading “What were gun control laws like in Nazi-controlled Germany?”

SAN FRANCISCO — Silicon Valley companies and law enforcement are starting to talk about how to ward off meddling by malicious actors including Russia on social media in the November midterms, an attempt at dialogue and information-sharing that was absent during the 2016 presidential elections.
Facebook convened a meeting last month with representatives from the biggest players in the technology industry along with FBI and Department of Homeland Security officials who are responsible for protecting elections from foreign interference, according to eight people familiar with the discussions. Google, Twitter, Apple, Microsoft, Snap and the parent company of Yahoo and AOL, Verizon subsidiary Oath, attended, according to four of the people. Continue reading “Tech didn’t spot Russian interference during the last election. Now it’s asking law enforcement for help.”
Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) president Morton A. Klein praised Reps. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) and Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) for introducing H.R. 6095, the Export Administration Anti-Discrimination Act (EAADA), which will help stop left-wing attempts to urge companies and consumers to boycott Israel.

House Speaker Paul Ryan has added a huge cheap-labor visa-worker program to his stalled amnesty bill in the hope of getting support from agriculture-district GOP legislators before the scheduled Wednesday vote.
The bill would allow food-sector employers to keep a population of up to 1.35 million “H-2C” guest-workers working on farms and in the food-processing industry. The law would allow employers to bring in 450,000 workers per year, under three-year visas, who would largely replace the existing population of roughly 1 million illegal immigrants — and also force wages down for many Americans and legal immigrants.

Recent data shows just how much. Farmers are dying by suicide at a higher rate than any other occupational group, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
