Back in 2012 when Senator Dianne Feinstein introduced legislation severely infringing on the 2nd Amendment right to bear arms, at least 3 petitions on dealing with Feinstein’s treason were initiated by The People in response on the petition.whitehouse.gov site. I signed two of the petitions, and below is the belated White House response, which excuses her treason as “championing legislation.” As I recall, the 3rd petition was quite funny, to ban Dianne Feinstein herself, but I can’t find it now, having been scrubbed from the whitehouse.gov site and from the internet, even the Wayback Machine Internet Archive.

Chile's environmental regulator blocked Barrick Gold Corp.'s $8.5 billion Pascua-Lama project on Friday, May 24, 2013, and imposed its maximum fine on the world's largest gold miner, citing "very serious" violations of its environmental permit as well as a failure by the company to accurately describe what it had done wrong.

EL CORRAL, Chile (AP) — The Diaguita Indians live in the foothills of the Andes, just downstream from the world’s highest gold mine, where for as long as anyone can remember they’ve drunk straight from the glacier-fed river that irrigates their orchards and vineyards with its clear water.

Then thousands of mine workers and their huge machines moved in, building a road alongside the river that reaches all the way up to Pascua-Lama, a gold mine being built along both sides of the Chile-Argentine border at a lung-busting 16,400-feet (5,000 meters) above sea level.   Continue reading “Chile’s Indians take on world’s largest gold miner”

IRS Scandal: The inexplicable raid nearly two years ago on a guitar maker for using allegedly illegal wood that its competitors also used was another targeting by this administration of its political enemies.

On Aug. 24, 2011, federal agents executed four search warrants on Gibson Guitar Corp. facilities in Nashville and Memphis, Tenn., and seized several pallets of wood, electronic files and guitars. One of the top makers of acoustic and electric guitars, including the iconic Les Paul introduced in 1952, Gibson was accused of using wood illegally obtained in violation of the century-old Lacey Act, which outlaws trafficking in flora and fauna the harvesting of which had broken foreign laws.   Continue reading “Now The Gibson Guitar Raids Make Sense”

Bank lobbyists have a direct influence on financial legislation drafted in Congress, and are in some cases even writing the measures themselves. Citigroup this month drafted a regulation bill that has already passed through a House committee.

To soften financial regulations, bank lobbyists frequently ‘assist’ lawmakers in writing draft legislation that serves to benefit them at the expense of American taxpayers, according to a New York Times investigation.   Continue reading “Wall Street is writing its own regulation bill”

Tennessee GOP Congressman Stephen Fincher, swept into office in the Tea Party wave of 2010, is on a mission from God.

Armed with an array of proverbs and quotes from the Holy Bible, Congressman Fincher is pressing his fight to dramatically curtail the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)—better known to most Americans as food stamps—relied upon by 47 million Americans for some or all of their daily sustenance.   Continue reading “GOP Congressman Stephen Fincher On A Mission From God-Starve The Poor While Personally Pocketing Millions In Farm Subsidies”

Ever wonder how come there are men (and women) in costumes “policing” the rest of us?

Most people accept this relationship as both given – and eternal. That there have always been men (if not always women)  in costumes “policing” the rest of us. But, in fact, it’s a relatively novel thing. Think back to your schooldays. Do you recall any mention of police when you were learning about the colonial era and the American Revolution? There were sheriffs, yes – and the local militia. But these were concerned mostly with keeping the peace – that is, stepping in when someone harmed someone else. Up to and even during the Civil War – a titanic struggle between the fading remnants of the old republican idea and the centralized, omnipotent state that took its place – the idea of police as we know it was essentially unknown.   Continue reading “Where Do Cops Come From?”

Washington rumor has it that Obama wants to be U.N. Secretary General.

There are several reasons that make that likely, and if it’s true, it throws new light on a lot of Obama’s oddities — including his Royalty Bows, his Apology Tours, his Muslim Sellout, and the Benghazi Cover-Up.

But first — why would Obama be planning to become the chief of the U.N. before he has even finished his second term?    Continue reading “Benghazi and Obama’s Ambition to Be U.N. SecGen”

President Obama has an eerie and alarming ability to detach himself from his own dubious actions.

This character trait was on full display in his speech on Thursday at the National Defense University.   Continue reading “In Drone Speech, Obama Gets Slippery on Killing US Citizens”

This clown show of a government gets more ridonculous every day. I’ve never understood why so many comics never found Obama funny. In his own special way, he can be a laugh riot:

It is a national disgrace that are veterans are ignored by our government. Many returning home from Iraq and Afghanistan are in need of follow up care for injuries sustained in combat. Obama’s sequester cuts have further defunded the VA. That means more war veterans who were wounded in combat will not get the care they need. Many will die waiting for approval from the VA. Many Veterans are homeless in need of mental health treatment.   Continue reading “Why Say No To Amnesty? Illegal Aliens Get Better Government Care While War Veteran’s Needs Are Ignored.”

wannabesWe have Kokesh, We have Alex Jones. We have Rand Paul. Ad nauseum. Adam Kokesh has written a declaration of revolt that appears to be a morphing of the Declaration of Independence and V’s TV rant (V FOR VENDETTA.)  A revolt true patriots need to avoid! It’s up to us to take the moral high ground. Like Lexington and Concord, let the enemy bring the fight.

What we really have is a group of WANNABES! Here on FTTWR we know these “men” to be agent provocateurs. We know that this revolution is leaderless and the “American Revolutionary Army” in fact does not exist except in Kokesh’s head. That is not to say there is NO army. There is a bigger army of armed patriots than all the mercenaries this imposter government can possibly muster. But for sake of argument let’s say that they are real and not Agent provocateurs.  So who do these wannabe’s want to be?   Continue reading “Wannabes”

Where else but Washington D.C. could this story happen? Actually it could happen a lot of places in this country and that’s what is truly frightening. Back in January a boy was riding his bike when he was attacked by three Pit Bull Terriers. He was savagely maimed but a good samaritan likely saved his life by shooting and killing the first of three dogs. A police officer who heard the shot finished the job. But this man saved a child’s life and now he has been fined for doing so.   Continue reading “Gun Owner Saves Child’s Life, Gets $1000 Fine for Unregistered Firearm”

The IRS should be eliminated because it has used a tax system that exploits class warfare and used by every President to go after their political enemies. The most obvious case of abuse was with the famous boxer Joe Lewis who had been robbed ruthlessly by this agency that is the collection arm of the Federal Reserve Bank.

Now President Obama is now being grilled and rightly so for using the IRS to harass the Tea Party movement and other patriot groups trying to silence and shut them down to send a chilling effect not to challenge the White House.   Continue reading “Beware of the “Fair Tax” Scam Solution While they Call for the End to the IRS”
