New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy (D) wants to significantly increase the cost of owning a gun in the state – proposing fees that would be among the highest in the country, according to the New York Times.

Currently, a firearm identification costs $5, a permit to own a gun $2, and a permit to carry a gun costs just $20. Murphy wants to raise that to $100 for the ID, $50 to own a gun and $400 to carry. In addition, Murphy wants to slap a 10% excise tax on ammunition and a 2.5% firearms excise tax.  Continue reading “NJ Governor Wants To Punish Low-Income Gun Owners With Insane New Fees”

NEW ORLEANS — The Trump administration is poised to end a program that has allowed five large nations, including China and India, to buy Iranian oil despite American sanctions, two senior American officials said on Sunday, a decision that is intended to squeeze Tehran’s government but could lead to higher oil and gasoline prices.

The move to choke off all exports of Iranian oil is part of an increasingly aggressive pressure campaign by the Trump administration to starve Iran of revenue with the goals of forcing political change among its ruling clerics and getting it to rein in its military actions across the Middle East.  Continue reading “U.S. to Clamp Down on Iranian Oil Sales, Risking Rise in Gasoline Prices”

To establish and equip the new workforce, the government hopes to turn America’s community colleges into pipelines for 5G jobs.  Continue reading “FCC Commissioner Wants Community Colleges to Become Pipelines for America’s 5G Workforce”

Hemerd King hasn’t seen his five children for two years. The New York City government broke up his family due to a string of allegations that, upon basic scrutiny, appear unsubstantiated.

The Epoch Times previously explored the twisted incentives in the system that keeps more than 400,000 children in foster homes and shelters, and de facto encourages social workers and administrators to keep families apart.  Continue reading “Homeschooling Parents’ Children Taken by Government, Citing ‘Educational Neglect’”

Presidential candidate Robert Kennedy was killed on the night of the California primary in 1968. He would have probably defeated Richard Nixon if the Powers That Be had decided to let him live. To illustrate corruption in American courts, the media and law enforcement I cite the fact that RFK was shot in the back at close range from an upward angle. Gun powder burns prove the assassin was close to the ground behind the candidate. That means Sirhan could not have killed Senator Kennedy. I doubt he could have knowingly been part of a conspiracy because he can remember nothing of what happened. And he did say he might have voted for Bobby Kennedy because he favored minorities.  Continue reading “Judaism Incorporated Requires Cultural Corruption”

Parents with children who have ADHD have my sympathy.  Therapy takes a long time and doesn’t always work.  It’s also not cheap.  Dietary changes aren’t easy to implement.  Drugs don’t always work and they aren’t necessarily cheap either.  Drugs can also have horrible side effects.  So there’s a new treatment that the FDA recently approved for kids ages 7-12 with ADHD:  an electrical pulse patch to wear on their foreheads while they sleep.  Continue reading “FDA Approves Low-Level Electrical Pulse Forehead Patch to Be Worn by Children Ages 7-12 with ADHD While They Are Sleeping”
