Sen. Rand Paul is weighing whether to propose legislation that prohibits lobbyists from advocating for foreign governments.

“I’m toying with the idea, and contemplating it, and in discussions of whether or not we should just make a law that you can’t do lobbying for foreign governments because it really does appear to be divided loyalty whether you’re in government or not,” the Kentucky Republican told Fox News Tuesday.   Continue reading “Rand Paul considers law banning lobbyists working for foreign governments”

We posted “The American Nationals for the united States of the Americas response to the United States Corporation’s Pledge of $10.6 Billion to Aid the Invasion into our Country” at 7:45 this morning.  One hour later CenturyLink, our internet provider, has gone down.

SHTF Plan – by Mac Slavo

In the land of the fee and home of the slave, incoming Democrats have already drafted a bill that will criminalize private gun sales.  As a “free” American, you will no longer be able to sell your own property without the government’s permission, unless you want to be labeled as a criminal if this bill succeeds and becomes a law.

While this won’t prevent mass shootings, as a government study conducted by anti-gun lunatics in politically elite positions already discovered, a very vast majority of gun owners regulate themselves.   Continue reading “Incoming Communists Ready A Bill That Will CRIMINALIZE Private Gun Sales”

In the village of Cook’s Bay, on the remote side of the remote island of Erromango, in the remote South Pacific nation of Vanuatu, 1-month-old Joy Nowai was given shots for hepatitis and tuberculosis that were delivered by a flying drone on Monday.

It may not have been the first vial of vaccine ever delivered that way, but it was the first in Vanuatu, which is the only country in the world to make its childhood vaccine program officially drone-dependent.   Continue reading “An Island Nation’s Health Experiment: Vaccines Delivered by Drone”

Anti-War – by Jason Ditz

Over the weekend, US warplanes have carried out at least six airstrikes against the coastal town of Gandarsh, Somalia. US African Command (Africom) says 62 people were killed in the strikes, and all were “terrorists” from al-Shabaab.

34 people were killed on Saturday, and 28 more on Sunday. The identities of the slain are not clear, and there is no way to verify Africom’s claims. This is, however, standard operating procedure for them, to both label all slain as militants, and to say they don’t think any civilians were killed or wounded.   Continue reading “US Airstrikes Kill 62 in Coastal Somali Town”

On an April afternoon in 2018, Dr. Matthew Roman and a friend drove together to a Philadelphia gun store, Firing Lane Inc. Seeking to purchase a firearm for home defense, Roman walked up to a clerk and asked to see a Smith and Wesson 638.

After Roman, 33, indicated he’d like to purchase the small six-shooter, the clerk began to ask Roman a few questions, including if he possessed a medical cannabis card, pursuant to question 11e on the ATF’s 4473 form. Roman, who has no criminal history, told the clerk truthfully that he has a medical prescription for marijuana. Sorry, the clerk told him, no gun.   Continue reading “Pennsylvania Doctor Denied Handgun over Legal Medical Marijuana Use Sues FBI, ATF”

Free Thought Project – by Jack Burns

Muskogee County residents, whose school-aged children accrue four absences over a four-week period of time, get a ticket from police and have to see a judge. The citation, if not signed, also leads to the detainment and potential arrest of their children. In police accountability circles, the truancy to incarceration system is known as the “school to prison pipeline.” One mother, whose son was arrested, placed in handcuffs, and taken to the same building which houses the county jail, is speaking out.   Continue reading “Child Handcuffed, Arrested and Thrown in Jail for Missing Too Many Days of School”

Feeling wronged by the U.S. government, the Kingman, Arizona, man reached a voicemail line several states removed, stated his name and began to blurt out threats.

In a series of calls made in April, Jerrod Hunter Schmidt — a convicted child molester — declared the names on his supposed hit list: President Donald Trump, Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts, that state’s attorney general and his predecessor, according to U.S. Secret Service arresting documents.   Continue reading “Kingman man gets prison time for bizarre death threats against Trump”

Over 500 guns were surrendered to Baltimore police within the first hour and a half of a citywide gun buyback program this week. Participants received anywhere from $25 to $500 for their unwanted firearms.

Mayor Catherine Pugh and Interim Police Commissioner Gary Tuggle announced a gun buyback program—the first in six years—last week. Pugh said that the program was intended to “get the guns off of our streets.”   Continue reading “Baltimore Woman Says She’ll Use Gun Buyback Cash to Pay for an Even Bigger Gun”

Governing – by Candice Norwood

In his final hours as U.S. Attorney General last month, Jeff Sessions issued a memo limiting the Justice Department’s power to pursue and enforce federal consent decrees with local police departments.

These court-enforced arrangements were a major tool for the Obama administration to curb patterns of police abuse and misconduct during a time of heightened national attention on the issue. The Obama administration launched “pattern or practice” investigations into 25 police departments and entered into 14 consent decrees. By comparison, the Trump administration has initiated zero.   Continue reading “Are Cops ‘Off the Hook’? How Police Reform Has Changed Under Trump”

Sun Tzu’s The Art of War has been called one of the greatest works of military strategy ever written. This Chinese military handbook dates back to the 5th century BC and contains 13 chapters, each dealing with a certain aspect of war.

With its pithy and memorable quotes, the words of Sun Tzu can easily be adapted and applied to all aspects of modern life. Here are 8 take-aways from The Art of War.   Continue reading “8 Pearls of Wisdom From Ancient China’s The Art of War”

The US military is one of the few institutions in America that draws its members from all races and religions with blood relatives in all ethnic groups except for Jews. We are under threat of extinction from our self-appointed leaders on Wall street and in the City of London who gave themselves the right to create our money as a loan at interest. This has led to a Mountain of Unpayable Debts. Our economies are near collapse. Banker Occupied Governments see us as an enemy. Their Foundations have done hundreds of studies saying they would be better off without us. They say that six billion of us should die. They are setting America up for a violent and protracted race based civil war that will kill both whites and non-whites just to depopulate us and enslave the survivors.   Continue reading “How And Why An American Military Coup Could Save The World”

Fascism should more properly be called corporatism, since it is the merger of state and corporate power.  Giovanni Gentile (not Benito Mussolini)

Most fascists would be insulted by the insinuation that they admire Google, Microsoft and Monsanto and are on the payroll of the NSA.

Corporatism means that the Congress can pass a law requiring you to do business with a company that has poor quality and even harmful products and services. Big Pharma and Monsanto come to mind.   Continue reading “Under Corporatism The People Who Own The Government Can Compel You To Buy Dangerous Products”

Winter-related deaths in Wales – called excess winter deaths – almost doubled in just one year. Could the same thing happen in the United States?

Experts are blaming a couple things for this unfortunate phenomenon but are they really just pushing an agenda? And, what is the “elephant in the room” that the media is clearly ignoring?   Continue reading “Burgeoning Winter Deaths in Wales Blamed on Climate Change, Failed Flu Shots – But Here’s Why People Are REALLY Dying”
