SHTF Plan – by Mac Slavo

President Donald Trump has already successfully gotten more gun control done than his predecessor, Barack Obama.  But he doesn’t seem to want to stop at banning bump stocks.  He’s now “seriously” considering banning silencers.

The media is taking aim at Trump over the shootings and he responded in a manner that would make any Democrat smile. “Well, I’d like to think about it,” Trump said in an interview with Piers Morgan on ITV’s Good Morning Britain. “I’m going to seriously look at it.” While Trump said he didn’t “love” the idea of a ban, he also was unhappy to see the frequency and severity of mass shootings in the United States, according to Bloomberg.

House Democrats are so pleased with their performance in Congress that they believe taxpayers should be giving them a $4,500 pay raise.

Spending leaders have reportedly voiced support for 2020 funding bills that would no longer block cost-of-living adjustments. Congress had voted to freeze congressional salaries at $174,000 in 2009 as the midterm elections approached and while the Obama economy struggled.  Continue reading “House Democrats Suggest They Need a Pay Raise”

Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida recently signed a bill which added ‘anti-Semitism’ to the list of outlawed forms of discrimination in Florida, equating it with other forms of racial discrimination, reported the Tallahassee Democrat.

The major problem many have with this bill is that the definition of Anti-semitism under this law includes everything from saying the “Jews control the media,” “Jews are more loyal to Israel than to America,” to many other questionable statements that are protected under the first amendment of the United States constitution. It is also now illegal to question the number of Jews who died in the Holocaust.  No other genocide has this protection in the world.  Continue reading “In Florida, It is Now HIGHLY ILLEGAL to Say “Jews Control Hollywood””

If you’re walking in Bloomfield, New Jersey, there’s a good chance you’re being recorded. But it’s not a corporate office or warehouse security camera capturing the footage — it’s likely a Ring doorbell made by Amazon.

While residential neighborhoods aren’t usually lined with security cameras, the smart doorbell’s popularity has essentially created private surveillance networks powered by Amazon and promoted by police departments.  Continue reading “Amazon’s helping police build a surveillance network with Ring doorbells”

When the President of Israel and the Jewish son-in-law of the President of the United States make surprisingly thoughtless statements about Palestine, they show us just how deliberately ignorant of history they are — and how uncaring they are for Palestinian suffering at a deeply subconscious level.   Continue reading “Washington’s “Malicious Intent”: Trump and Son-in-Law Kushner’s “Deliberate” Ignorance of Palestinian History”

Some of my favorite childhood memories take place in the empty lot behind my old house. It was about two acres of land filled with dirt, sagebrush, and tumbleweeds. And as unpleasant and unsanitary as it sounds to me now, it was a dream for my siblings and me. We dug holes, made hideouts, played kick-the-can, and had many other grand adventures that I will always cherish. What I don’t cherish were the ticks. I probably spent just as many hours playing in the field as I did on the bathroom floor while my mom combed through my hair looking for the little critters. There’s no doubt about it, ticks are nasty. The only thing worse than a tick is a tick with a deadly virus. Continue reading “Tick Carrying Deadly Brain Swelling Virus Found In New York”
