Last Resistance – by Onan Coca

The federal government and the environmental regulators who act capriciously in its name continue their assault on innocent American citizens.

The most recent horror story proving that the federal government has grown far too big and far too powerful comes to us from New Mexico. A family in the southwestern state is in danger of losing everything – their home and their livelihood – because the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has decided that a mouse that lives on their land is an endangered species.   Continue reading “Family to Lose Everything because of “Endangered” Mouse”

The influx of Central American illegal immigrants appears to have attracted the attention of Chinese nationals seeking to gain access to the United States. Border Patrol union officials in the Rio Grande Valley Sector tell National Review Online they’ve noticed a recent uptick in the number of Chinese border crossers. While the Obama administration has sought to attribute the spike in Central Americans coming to the U.S. to poverty and regional violence, no such explanation exists for the arrival of Chinese immigrants.

“[Traffic of Chinese-born persons] seemed to have dried up for awhile, but then maybe within the last month or so it seemed to have increased,” says Albert Spratte, the sergeant-at-arms of the National Border Patrol Council Local 3307 in the Rio Grande Valley. “You see them in threes or fours, and it’s always, ‘Oh, the one-child policy, the one-child policy, don’t want to go back.’ They’re always trying to claim some credible fear.”   Continue reading “More Illegal Immigrants from China Crossing Border”

BERLIN (AP) — Chris Boudreau’s son Damian told her over dinner on a November evening in 2012 that he was going to Egypt to study Arabic, the language of Islam.

She never saw him again. “He flew to Seattle, then Amsterdam, then into Istanbul,” said Boudreau. “There was a training camp just outside the city where radicals train prior to crossing the border into Syria.”   Continue reading “Europe takes rehab approach to Islamic extremists”

The “Tequila Party,” a Latino group formed in opposition to the Tea Party, wrote to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder and FBI Director James Comey on Monday to request that the Tea Party and several officials be investigated for their role in protesting and blocking the transfer of illegal aliens captured in Texas to Murrieta, California. The protests on July 1 turned back three busloads of aliens, though more are scheduled to arrive.   Continue reading “‘Tequila Party’ Asks Holder to Prosecute Tea Party for Murrieta ‘Terrorism’”

A group that identifies itself as a coalition of “Patriots” has put out a call for people to go to the Texas-Mexico border and help with a citizen militia operation called “Secure our Border – Laredo.”

A spokeswoman for the group, Denice Freeman, said the operation is a call for civilian militia members — both armed and unarmed — to voluntarily guard private property in the Laredo area and other Texas locations where owners feel threatened by “drug cartels and from gangs, particularly the MS-13 gangs,” a Salvadoran-based gang that is considered among the most dangerous in this country by law enforcement.   Continue reading “Militia group heading to Texas border”

MURRIETA — Demonstrators opposed to illegal immigration stood their ground again at the Murrieta Border Patrol station on Monday, where U.S. Border Patrol had been scheduled to transfer a third round of buses, with approximately 140 illegal aliens aboard in total, transferred from overcrowded Texas detention facilities.

For a third time, the buses were rerouted to the San Ysidro, California Border Patrol station, near the U.S.-Mexico border, for processing. The demonstrators gathered in areas to the north and south of the Murrieta station after law enforcement blocked off the road near the station itself. Many told Breitbart News they considered their stand a success, since buses scheduled for Murrieta are avoiding it as long as demonstrators remain.   Continue reading “Stand Your Ground: Protestors Divert 3rd Round of Buses from Murrieta”

Monday morning began with a jolt along the western coast of Mexico when a deadly 6.9-magnitude earthquake shook buildings as far away as Mexico City.

The large temblor occurred at 6:23 a.m. local time (7:23 a.m. Eastern time), five miles northeast of Puerto Madero, Mexico. The epicenter was near the Guatemalan border, where strong shaking was also felt, according to RT.com.

Firefighters spokesman Raul Hernandez says at least two people were killed in the Guatemalan town of San Marcos. Western Guatemala also suffered power failures from the quake. The civil defense office in the Mexican state of Chiapas reported on its Twitter account that one man had been killed in Huixtla by a collapsed wall.   Continue reading “Mexico Earthquake: 6.9-Magnitude Quake Shakes Puerto Madero, Swaying Buildings in Mexico City; 3 Dead”

A Fourth of July parade float that depicted a figure standing outside an outhouse labeled the “Obama Presidential Library” has created a stir on social media and is also receiving criticism in Norfolk, Nebraska.

The float, in Norfolk’s annual Independence Day parade, was on a flatbed trailer being pulled by a blue pickup truck. The figure was dressed in overalls and standing next to a walker outside of the outhouse. The hands and head of the figure were greenish and appeared to be zombielike; the hands were pressed against the sides of the figure’s head. Miniature American flags were atop the float and on the truck.   Continue reading “July 4 parade float depicting Obama presidential library as outhouse draws cheers, controversy”

HOUSTON, Texas–A busload of illegal immigrants is expected to show up in Murrieta, California in spite of a furious group of residents who claim their town is no place for the migrants. On Sunday Breitbart Texas broke the news that federal agents accompanying the bus will have riot gear and shields, in order to push back the crowd. Despite this, the protesters have no intentions of backing down–rather, the group is preparing for a showdown that one resident told Breitbart Texas “might get ugly.”

Sources on the ground in Murrieta told Breitbart Texas that many protesters have already gathered in the town this morning in anticipation of the busload. Law enforcement is there, too.   Continue reading “Murrieta Residents Preparing for Riot Squads, Ready to ‘Be Detained’”

The Lone Star Watchdog

The reason why we are in a sad state is because we have held back while the Dictatorship does not hold back anything. He does not have anymore constitutional restraint. They are using all resources at the their disposal to wreck the country by breaking the law. We are told we are supposed to use restraint and do things peacefully while the other side is not afraid to incite violence if necessary to get their way.

If Governor Perry is serious about securing the border and protecting Texas from invasion. He has every legal and moral right to do so. He ought to not hold nothing back to protect the Lone Star State from an insurrection perpetrated by the Federal government to bring in the North American Union and the Bankrupt Texas under the Cloward and Pivon plan.   Continue reading “Governor Perry: Do you Have the Guts to Arrest Pres. Obama for Treason When He Visits Texas This Week?”

Bellevue, WA -(Ammoland.com)- New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie’s veto of gun control legislation, blasting its proponents for offering a “simplistic solution” to a complex problem with violent crime is the kind of wake-up call too few executives are willing to make, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said.

Gov. Christie vetoed Assembly Bill 2006, which would have decreased magazine capacity from 15 to ten rounds, telling gun control proponents, “We ignore the hard for the expedient, the controversial for the safely familiar, and the costly for those cheaply recycled answers that never really address the root causes.”   Continue reading “CCRKBA Congratulates Christie for Veto of Extremist Gun Measure”
