Fractured Paradigm – by Paige Bennett

For anyone who was paying attention, yesterday was an important day. No, I’m not talking about the Arias trial (which certain networks covered all day without any mention of other, apparently more trivial news), or even Kim Kardashian’s latest appearance as a floral couch/sausage hybrid. On Wednesday, May 8, we heard the testimony of three whistle blowers regarding the attack of our embassy in Benghazi, Libya on September 11, 2012, and there were some pretty eye-opening moments. As expected, both former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and United States Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice were discussed in the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing, and what we heard was hardly flattering.   Continue reading “Hillary Clinton & Susan Rice Honored for “Leadership & Progress” as Benghazi Hearing Confirms Lies”

The Heritage Foundation, headed by former Sen. Jim DeMint, recently concluded an analysis of the Immigration Reform bill being pushed by the Gang of 8 and the results are economically devastating.  The legalization of 11 million illegal aliens will suck the very life out of many of our benefit and welfare programs.   Continue reading “Immigration Reform Illegals Will Receive $592,000 More In Benefits Than They’ll Pay in Taxes”

The Obama administration said on Thursday it is making $150 million available to community health centers to enroll uninsured Americans in healthcare coverage under President Barack Obama’s reform law.

The new funds would help about 1,200 health centers hire and train staff, conduct community outreach efforts and assist consumers in applying for benefits under the law, which provides coverage through subsidized insurance markets and an expansion of the Medicaid program for the poor, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said.   Continue reading “U.S. unveils $150 million healthcare enrollment initiative”

Jefferson City, Mo (May 8, 2013) – Tonight, the Missouri State House voted to send Governor Jay Nixon what could arguably be the strongest defense against federal gun control measures in American history.  The vote was 116-38.

HB436, introduced by Representative Doug Funderburk in February, was initially passed by the House in April by a vote of 115-42.  Last week, the State Senate approved the bill with an amendment which did not change any of its nullification aspects. The vote there was 26-6.  The bill then needed one final vote in the house which happened just before 10pm local time this evening.   Continue reading “Missouri Legislature Nullifies All Federal Gun Control Measures by a Veto-Proof Majority”

NEW YORK (AP) — A worldwide gang of criminals stole $45 million in a matter of hours by hacking their way into a database of prepaid debit cards and then draining cash machines around the globe, federal prosecutors said Thursday — and outmoded U.S. card technology may be partly to blame.

Seven people are under arrest in the U.S. in connection with the case, which prosecutors said involved thousands of thefts from ATMs using bogus magnetic swipe cards carrying information from Middle Eastern banks. The fraudsters moved with astounding speed to loot financial institutions around the world, working in cells including one in New York, Brooklyn U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch said.   Continue reading “Feds in NYC: Hackers stole $45M in ATM card breach”

Law enforcement agencies are increasingly using sophisticated cameras, called “automated license plate readers” or ALPR, to scan and record the license plates of millions of cars across the country. These cameras, mounted on top of patrol cars and on city streets, can scan up to 1,800 license plate per minute, day or night, allowing one squad car to record more than 14,000 plates during the course of a single shift.   Continue reading “Automated License Plate Readers Threaten Our Privacy”

The Immigration Bill being put forth by the so called Gang of Eight can be considered nothing short of a US surrender to Mexico and the North American Union.   We are told that there are 11.2 million illegals in our country and that they are here because our Executive Branch has refused to enforce the laws legislated by the US Congress, hence the representatives of we the people.

When we tell our government to enforce our law and get the foreigners out as they are destroying our economy through their draw on our safety net and all other public services, the socialist insurgents within our government tell us that these invaders cannot be removed because it is cost prohibitive at $60 billion to remove these trespassers and secure our border.   Continue reading “Washington Surrenders the United States to Mexico”

Update on CAMOVER which I went over here.

A group calling itself the Barefoot Bandit Brigade, Puget Sound, Washington has claimed the destruction of 17 Police State cameras.  This is by far the greatest number of cameras I know of destroyed, in the U.S., so they are in the lead for the America’s.  Continue reading “Update on Camera Hunting Contest – CAMOVER”

Has the GMO Food and Drug Pushers Administration sent forth another volley in their war on whole foods and self-sufficiency?

We all know that the FDA is present to further the agendas of Big Food and Big Agri as opposed to protecting the best interests of consumers, and rumor has it that their most recent antic is a crackdown on LDS canneries.   Continue reading “Is the FDA Protecting the Public from Self-Sufficiency and Whole Foods with LDS Cannery Crackdown?”
