Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) defended deeming churches as “essential” in his stay-at-home order, telling reporters during Thursday’s press conference that the government does not have the authority to close a church and adding that they play an important role, particularly “in times like this.” DeSantis formally issued a stay-at-home order on Wednesday after days of mounting pressure. The order is designed to “limit their [Floridians’] movements and personal interactions outside of their home to only those necessary to obtain or provide essential services or conduct essential activities.” Essential activities include picking up groceries, going to ...

"This stimulus should go straight to the people rather than being funneled through banks and corporations like this bill is doing."Heroic Kentucky Rep Thomas Massie, one of the only men of character in our entire congress, bravely stood up against the bipartisan $6 trillion screwjob bailout on Friday morning and said the "stimulus should go straight to the people rather than being funneled through banks and corporations." President Trump responded by calling for him to be thrown out of the Republican Party.(1/11)I swore an oath to uphold the constitution, and I take that oath seriously. In a few moments I will request a vote on the CARES Act which means members of ...

Partygoers at a Pink Floyd tribute night have been scolded for shouting abuse at New Jersey police after defying social distancing rules brought in to contain the coronavirus pandemic. Around 30 people gathered to watch an acoustic rendition of the British rock band’s greatest hits on the front lawn of a home in Rumson, a seaside community south of New York City, that was also broadcast live over social media. Police were called to end the revelry, but met a hostile crowd on arrival. “When we informed everyone that they must leave… we were met with well wishes of ‘F-the police’ and ‘Welcome to Nazi Germany,'” said the town’s police department on ...
Bill Gates and the Mark of the Geek

These seem to be good times for Bill Gates, otherwise known as “The Geek.” Two weeks ago, Gates himself took to Reddit for an Ask Me Anything online town hall on the coronavirus pandemic. One of the key takeaways followed National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci, who said that mass production of a vaccine would likely not occur for another 12 to 18 months. Gates concurred, saying that lots of manufacturing will need to be built to provide “billions of vaccines to protect the world.” In tandem with “billions of vaccines” is a digital embed certificate called ID2020; or more snarkily, The Mark of the Geek. In other words, a ...
Less Driving Amid Outbreak is Hurting Red Light Camera Revenue — Which is Great

Since states began locking down in mid-March, unemployment has skyrocketed, businesses have shuttered their doors, and these uncertain times have grown more worrisome by the day. There is one industry that is hurting, however, that shouldn’t bother many of us and that is the Red Light Camera industry. Anyone whose been self-quarantining over the last few weeks likely knows that their trips to the gas station have been minimal simply because they are driving less. When people drive less, predatory and unconstitutional Red Light Camera companies like Redflex — who stalk unwitting drivers on the roads — make less money. This is a good thing. As Business Insider points out, ...

Detroit, MI — Macomb County Prosecutor Eric Smith resigned after having spent 25 years as a prosecutor and assistant prosecutor. Smith has been at the center of a Michigan State Police investigation over how the prosecutor’s office spent civil asset forfeiture funds from drug and alcohol forfeitures. To be clear, civil asset forfeiture, according to police accountability activists, is legal theft by law enforcement of citizens’ personal financial assets because no crime has to have been committed or proven for law enforcement to steal your property. Civil Asset Forfeiture starts when a citizen gets stopped by police in a traffic stop for example. If drugs are found on the ...

BETHESDA, Md. — Frustrated with people ignoring social distancing recommendations, Maryland Governor Larry Hogan issued a stay-at-home order Monday. That means Marylanders can only leave their homes for "essential activities."The Governor said this comes after multiple unheeded recommendations for people to remain home during the novel coronavirus pandemic. "In spite of the rapid escalation of this crisis... some people are still choosing to ignore those executive orders and directives," Hogan said. "Those individuals are endangering themselves and fellow citizens."Hardware stores and grocery stores have still been packed, with lines wrapping around the ...

The problem with making informed decisions about coronavirus is that we don’t have a whole lot of data on it at the moment.The data that we do have, meanwhile, could end up being terminally skewed, particularly the data that’s been coming out of China.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s guidance on determining COVID-19 as a cause of death isn’t going to help those numbers.Issued March 24, the guidance tells hospitals to list COVID-19 as a cause of death regardless of whether or not there’s actual testing to confirm that’s the case.Instead, even if the coronavirus was just a contributing factor or if it’s “assumed to ...

California megachurch linked to spread of more than 70 coronavirus cases A California megachurch has found itself at the center of a coronavirus outbreak after public health officials connected it to 71 cases , even as church leaders say they have been unfairly blamed for failing to take action to stop the spread among church members. County health officials have put Bethany Slavic Missionary church, a Pentecostal house of worship in a suburb of Sacramento, at the heart of one of the largest outbreak clusters in the country. The church is reported to be the largest Slavic congregation in the US, with 3,500 members and a total attendance at some services of up to 10,000. The ...

A month ago, most Americans weren’t ready to accept the Green New Deal – and a plethora of green taxes – because they were told the “climate” was supposedly in “crisis.” A month later, many Americans seem willing to accept anything – even including house arrest in perpetuity – because of green phlegm. A nasty bug – vs. a very nasty police state. Which do you prefer to risk? The possibility – or the certainty? In Stalin’s Soviet Union, disagreeing with Stalin was pathologized – as well as criminalized. You were sick if you questioned the regime. An enemy of the people. Today, people who question the assumption of ...

Albuquerque, NM — Frequent readers of the Free Thought Project know that police officers in the United States have an exceedingly higher rate of domestic violence than any other occupation. The average rate of domestic violence among most families in America is around 10%. As the National Center for Women and Policing points out, two studies have found that at least 40% of police officer families experience domestic violence. That is a four-fold increase. Though many police officers escape accountability for these acts of domestic violence, one officer with the Albuquerque Police Department, Jeffrey Wharton, 31, had beaten his girlfriend so badly, his fellow cops couldn’t ...

Los Angeles, CA — A 63-year-old blind man announced a lawsuit this week against the LAPD alleging officers suffocated him as he was strapped to a gurney in a hospital.

According to the lawsuit, on Feb. 28, 2019, officers arrived at Moore’s home after he got into an altercation with a woman who had been using his kitchen. The woman and ...

With the arrests of preachers in Florida and Louisiana, the rotten fruit of Christendom’s genuflecting to the State drops and splatters. American clergy couldn’t close their doors fast enough when bureaucrats and politicians “suggested” they do so—but such kowtowing has only emboldened Leviathan. The beast no longer contents itself with urging parishioners to stay home: it now forbids them to convene. And it’s persecuting dissidents. In Florida, Rev. Rodney Howard-Browne “was arrested Monday at his home one day after his church was packed with worshippers…,” while Rev. Tony Spell in Louisiana “fac[es] misdemeanor charges for holding ...

Dr. Anthony S. Fauci says that the United States will not come out of lockdown until there are no “new cases” of coronavirus, prompting some to question precisely how long that will be. During yesterday’s White House briefing, Fauci, who has become the face of America’s response to the coronavirus, was asked by a reporter whether social distancing measures will be imposed until there is a drug or vaccine to treat COVID-19. “I think if we get to the part of the curve that Dr. Birx showed yesterday when it goes down to essentially no new cases, no new deaths at a period of time. I think it makes sense that you will have to relax social distancing,” Fauci said. ...

With any luck, a large number of Americans who have been faithfully voting for Democrats all these years will come to realize that the Donkey Party is the biggest enemy of liberty and freedom. And that is proving to be especially true during times of crisis. All around the country, Democrat mayors and governors are implementing the most draconian rules in response to the coronavirus outbreak. In addition to deeming which businesses are “essential” and which are not, they are restricting movement, denying people the right to assemble, and forbidding the faithful from attending religious services. Now, one of them — Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, is going a step ...

Fort Smith, AR — It is illegal for police officers to pull reasons out of thin air and invent probable cause to pull over motorists, detain, and question law abiding citizens who have not committed any crimes. Still, we at TFTP regularly report incidents of this happening almost on a daily basis. Luke Ashlocke is one of these cases and claims Fort Smith police have been targeting him for harassment. His most recent interaction with Fort Smith officer Cassidy is proof, Ashlocke says, the cops have targeted him. He sent us the video and says watching videos and stories uploaded to our site on Facebook and the world-wide web have helped protect his family. We assume it means he has ...
