Why do things never seem to change no matter who we send to Washington? It seems like for decades many of us have been trying to change the direction of this country by engaging in the political process. But no matter how hard we try, the downward spiral of our nation just continues to accelerate. Just look at this latest spending deal. Even though the American people gave the Republicans control of the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives, this deal very closely resembles “an Obama administration-era budget”. It increases spending even though we have already been adding more than a trillion dollars a year to the national debt, it specifically forbids the building of a border wall, it fully funds Planned Parenthood, and there are dozens of other concessions to the Democrats in it. As I previously warned, these “negotiations” were a political rout of epic proportions. Continue reading “Why There Will NEVER Be A Political Solution To America’s Problems”
Introductory Note — Benjamin H. Freedman was one of the most intriguing and amazing individuals of the 20th century. Mr. Freedman, born in 1890, was a successful Jewish businessman of New York City who was at one time the principal owner of the Woodbury Soap Company.
He broke with organized Jewry after the Judeo-Communist victory of 1945, and spent the remainder of his life and the great preponderance of his considerable fortune, at least 2.5 million dollars, exposing the Jewish tyranny which has enveloped the United States. Continue reading “Benjamin Freedman”

Paul LePage, an outspoken politician like his ally, President Donald Trump, said Monday that his office had filed a complaint in a county court that details Attorney General Janet Mills’ “abuse of power by refusing to legally represent the executive branch in law court.” Continue reading “Maine governor sues his state’s attorney general”
WASHINGTON — Congress extended protections to 44 states that have legalized medical marijuana in its proposed $1 trillion spending bill that funds the government through September.
The language prevents the Justice Department from using any of its funding to “prevent” those states from “implementing their own laws that authorize the use, distribution, possession, or cultivation of medical marijuana.” Continue reading “Congress’ spending bill protects medical pot states”

While Leonardo DiCaprio was marching around in Washington, D.C., at a global warming event on Saturday (he no doubt flew in on his private plane, burning fossil fuels and murdering the environment along the way), protesters in Denver couldn’t join in the fun.
No, they weren’t all too stoned to march. A spring snowstorm dumped a foot of snow across the region, and the blizzard forced organizers to move the event to Sunday.
Twitter, of course, had a field day. Continue reading “Denver Cancels Saturday’s Global Warming March After Storm Dumps Foot of Snow”

The injured firefighter underwent surgery at Baylor University Medical Center and is in critical condition. Sources say he has “coded three times.” The civilian’s condition hasn’t been released. Continue reading “Firefighter, civilian shot in East Dallas; search underway for suspect”
After conducting a multi-center, phase-3, double-blind, placebo controlled, independently reviewed study, encompassing 39 countries, various undersea kingdoms, and the moon, I’ve concluded that the best reason parents shouldn’t home-school their children is:
They can’t.
They can’t, because the public education they received was so wan and thin and bereft of substance, they’re unfit to teach.
For those parents who did receive a decent education, and who can handle the schedule, home schooling is a rational decision. Continue reading “The best reason not to home-school your children”

Should we make homelessness against the law and simply throw all homeless people into prison so that we don’t have to deal with them? Incredibly, this is actually starting to happen in dozens of major cities all across the United States. It may be difficult to believe, but in many large urban areas today, if you are found guilty of “public camping” you can be taken directly to jail. In some cities, activities such as “blocking a walkway” or creating any sort of “temporary structure for human habitation” are also considered to be serious crimes. And there are some communities that have even made it illegal to feed the homeless without an official permit. Unfortunately, as the U.S. economy continues to slow down the number of homeless people will continue to grow, and so this is a crisis that is only going to grow in size and scope.

The Baltimore State’s Attorney’s Office has instructed prosecutors to think twice before charging illegal immigrants with minor, non-violent crimes in response to stepped up immigration enforcement by the Trump administration.
Chief Deputy State’s Attorney Michael Schatzow, in a memo sent to all staff Thursday and obtained by The Baltimore Sun, wrote that the Justice Department’s deportation efforts “have increased the potential collateral consequences to certain immigrants of minor, non-violent criminal conduct.” Continue reading “Baltimore prosecutors told to consider consequences for prosecuting illegal immigrants for minor crimes”

Taliban roots go back to CIA-recruited, armed and supported Mujahideen fighters against Afghanistan’s Soviet occupiers in the 1980s.
Ronald Reagan called them “the moral equivalent of our founding fathers.” Today, they’re one of America’s mortal enemies. Continue reading “Fake News: Russia Sending Weapons to Taliban”

Like Alexis de Tocqueville nearly 200 years ago, I believe American society thrives when people act out of an enlightened regard for themselves that constantly prompts them to assist each other. I remain optimistic that our nation can unify around policies that promote a system of mutual benefit for people from all walks of life.
As President Trump nears 100 days in office, we are moving closer to that ideal in some respects, but not in others. But no president can — or should — be expected to solve every problem alone. To be successful, leaders in any field must listen to everyone, even those with whom they disagree. Continue reading “Charles Koch: Trump’s policies must not benefit only big businesses like mine”
