The Daily Sheeple – by Joshua Krause

Mexico is the ultimate debate fodder for American gun rights activists. That’s because you probably couldn’t come up with a better example of what happens when a country restricts gun ownership for law-abiding citizens, while failing to disarm and imprison violent criminals. The results of that are predictable. On one side of the border, there is relative peace and prosperity. On the other side, drug cartels practically own the government and act against a mostly unarmed population with impunity.   Continue reading “Mexican Official Pleads With Congress To Ban Assault Weapons”

With Hillary Clinton continuing her run of days without a press conference, the nation is growing increasingly concerned as day after day more headlines – from even the mainstream media – cast shadows over her actions as Secretary of State. With more records reported to be released tomorrow, AP reports another nail in the coffin of Clinton honesty today as The State Department is forced to admit that The FBI has discovered dozens of emails related to Benghazi that Clinton failed to hand over.   Continue reading “FBI Recovers 30 Benghazi Emails Deleted By Hillary”

A leaked document from George Soros’s Open Society Foundations exposes the billionaire’s level of involvement in attempting to build what his organization describes as a “national movement” to reform local police forces across the U.S. The reform largely consists of federal guidelines for local police forces.

The document identifies an opportunity in the police killings of African-American men in Ferguson, Staten Island, North Charleston, and Baltimore. It relates that the U.S. contingent of Open Society held a planning meeting titled, “Police Reform: How to Take Advantage of the Crisis of the Moment and Drive Long-Term Institutional Change in Police-Community Practice.”   Continue reading “Leaked Memo Reveals Soros Plan for Federally Controlled Police”

The Department of Veterans Affairs – under the umbrella of the Obama administration – has moved to ban prominent displays of the Confederate flag in cemeteries funded by federal tax dollars.

“Congress had debated and rejected that change, but the Obama administration decided to move forward anyway, saying it was unilaterally imposing the restrictions,” reported the Washington Times.   Continue reading “Obama Admin. Bans Confederate Flag At Federally Funded Cemeteries”

The number of gun-owning households in the United States appears to be on the rise.

At least 44 percent of American homes now have guns compared to 51 percent without, according to research released Friday by the Pew Research Center.

The new study indicates a sharp change in gun trends in America, as other polls had shown ownership was declining in past years.    Continue reading “44%of US households have at least one gun, showing increase: Pew”

Deutsche Bank (DB), Germany’s and Europe’s largest bank, is in serious trouble:

  • It admitted to rigging the gold and silver makets.
  • In a recent study of 51 European banks using U.S. Federal Reserve stress test methods, German economic research institute ZEW found thatDeutsche Bank had the highest potential capital shortfall of as much as €19 billion — a capital gap that is greater than DB’s entire market cap.

If you’re at all passionate about health, it’s likely you will eventually reach the conclusion that you need to grow your own food. Hendrikus Schraven, founder of Hendrikus Organics, is a magnificent resource in this regard.

Hendrikus has an innovative approach to environmental landscape design, including a focus on edible landscaping, and he’s an expert at restoring contaminated soils, which so many of us have. The key to this approach, of course, is to improve the quality of the microbiome in the soil.   Continue reading “Restoring Your Soil: Advice by an Old School Soil to Health Expert”

NEW DELHI (AP) — The United States and India agreed Tuesday to boost counterterrorism cooperation by expanding intelligence sharing about known or suspected extremists and terrorist threats. Speaking after conclusion of the second U.S.-India strategic dialogue in New Delhi, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Indian Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj said the two countries also renewed their commitment to track down and prosecute perpetrators of several terrorist attacks on Indian soil, including the 2008 strike in Mumbai that killed 172 people and a January 2016 attack on the Pathankot Air Force base. India has blamed Pakistan-linked groups for the attacks.   Continue reading “United States, India agree to boost anti-terror cooperation”

SEATTLE (AP) — Seattle leaders have proposed new rules for retail and food-service businesses with hourly employees, including requiring them to schedule shifts two weeks in advance and compensate workers for some last-minute changes — the latest push by a city that has led the nation in mandating worker benefits.

Seattle was among the first to phase in a $15 hourly minimum wage, mandate sick leave for many companies and offer paid parental leave for city workers. Now, the mayor, city officials and labor-backed groups are targeting erratic schedules and fluctuating hours they say make it difficult for people to juggle child care, school or other jobs, to count on stable income or to plan for the future.   Continue reading “Seattle weighs new rules for businesses with hourly workers”

I want to be perfectly clear with something: The people have the right to enforce the law when the state fails to. The state would like to have a monopoly on enforcement, because it allows those in power to commit crimes without consequence. It also allows “friends of the state” to commit crimes without consequence. And when this goes to an extreme, we end up with what we have now.   Continue reading “It is time for the people to think seriously about law enforcement”

Guns America – by Jordan Michaels

There’s an old saying that says, “To a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.” Hammers can only do one thing: whack stuff (that’s the technical term). If a hammer happens upon a loose screw, it’s just going to keep hammering until that screw either breaks or magically transforms into a nail.

Where am I going with this? Good question. Here’s what I’m thinking—anti-gun politicians are kind of like hammers. To them, every problem that kind-of-sort-of-has-something-to-do-with-firearms can be solved by enacting gun control.   Continue reading “Here Today, Gone Tomorrow: The Biggest Gun Grabs of the Last Eight Years”

The Free Thought Project – by Matt Agorist

Grants, NM — As the Free Thought Project pointed out many times before, police departments in America can legally discriminate against hiring individuals if their IQ is too high. Couple this with the fact that thieves aren’t always the sharpest tools in the toolbox, and you get the makings of a scenario like the one that unfolded in New Mexico last week. A Grants cop was caught on his own body cam stealing weed.

Grants Police Department Sgt. Roshern C. McKinney, 33, was arrested last week after an investigation found that he’d stolen both money and marijuana from the police department. McKinney has since been charged with marijuana distribution, conspiracy, and felony embezzlement.   Continue reading “You Can’t Make This Up! — Cop Caught on His Own Body Cam Stealing Pot from Police Dept”

With a single shotgun blast, a 65-year-old woman in rural northern Virginia recently shot down a drone flying over her property.

The woman, Jennifer Youngman, has lived in The Plains, Virginia, since 1990. The Fauquier Times first reported the June 2016 incident late last week. It marks the third such shooting that Ars has reported on in the last 15 months—last year, similar drone shootings took place in Kentucky and California.   Continue reading “Woman shoots drone: “It hovered for a second and I blasted it to smithereens.””

Not an ice floe was in sight as a warming climate and a huge cruise ship combined to usher in a new era of mass tourism in Canada’s Arctic.

After a stop at the community of Ulukhaktok, N.W.T., the 280-metre long Crystal Serenity entered the fabled but dangerous Northwest Passage Sunday and arrived at the hamlet of Cambridge Bay, Nunavut on Monday morning.   Continue reading “Massive cruise ship brings new era of Arctic tourism to Cambridge Bay”

Watts Up With That – by David Archibald

The warning signs have been there for some time now – persistent failures of the wheat crop in Norway for example. The North Atlantic is cooling. The cooling trend was evident at the time of an expedition to investigate this phenonemon three years ago. The rate of cooling has now steepened up since then based on the latest data collated by Professor Humlum of the University of Oslo. From that data set, this graph shows the heat loss since 2004 for the top 700 metres of the water column:   Continue reading “The North Atlantic: Ground Zero of Global Cooling”
