The Trump Administration is looking into altering how it determines the national poverty level, which may put some Americans at risk of losing access to welfare programs, according to Bloomberg. The move might occur from changing how inflation is calculated in the “official poverty measure” according to a regulatory filing by White House Office of Management and Budget. That formula has been used for decades to try and determine where the poverty line is and what people qualify for social programs and federal benefits.   Continue reading “Trump Plans To Redefine Poverty, Cutting Americans From Welfare”

Supposedly, another 18 year old teen shooter was one of two suspects involved in a Highlands Ranch, Colorado school shooting, 1 dead 7 injured. To me, this rings hollow.

As if you need another reason to love Willie Nelson, news has recently surfaced that the musician and marijuana activist is also a horse lover. He’s so fond of them that he rescued 70 horses from being slaughtered. They now roam on his 700-acre ranch in Texas.

The country musician spends most of his time at Luck Ranch when he’s not on the road. The ranch is home to him and the name “Luck” suits in more ways than one. Nelson told Paul Venema from KSAT 12 News, “When you’re here, you’re in Luck, and when you’re not, you’re out of Luck.”   Continue reading “Willie Nelson Rescued 70 Horses From a Slaughterhouse to Let Them Roam Free on His Ranch”

Every one of them was assigned a security detail. Every motorcycle officer was taken off their cycles to remove them as easy targets.  Continue reading “Chris Dorner Times 10,000”
