WASHINGTON D.C. — Following months of increasingly angry complaints from Republicans about social media companies’ alleged bias against conservatives, the Trump Administration is drafting an Executive Order on the subject. CNN has just published a leaked summary of the draft order, which would take the extraordinary step of directing two independent agencies, the Federal Communications Commission and Federal Trade Commission, to force social media sites to operate “neutrally.” “Trump’s proposed executive order would transform the FCC and FTC from consumer protection agencies into regulators of online speech,” said Berin Szóka, President of ...

Obama denied him clemency. Will Trump set him free?Aaron Sandusky has spent nearly seven years in federal prison for conspiracy to distribute cannabis. He's one of about 20,000 federal or state inmates behind bars for an activity that is legal in one form or another in 33 U.S. states and Washington, D.C.A bill is working its way through the Senate that might help people like Sandusky by expunging their records. Some advocates believe that President Donald Trump is close to granting clemency to some of these men and women―including Sandusky.When Sandusky opened a marijuana dispensary in 2009, medical cannabis had been legal for 13 years in California. But in 2011, the feds ...

Michigan Bans The Cops From Seizing Your Property Without Conviction

The Heartland Institute reports that three new bills were signed into law which limit property seizure practices in the state. These new statues ban police officers from seizing property in suspected drug crimes without first acquiring a conviction or plea agreement. Civil asset forfeiture is a legal progress that enables law enforcement to confiscate assets—cars and money—from individuals suspected of being involved in illegal activity. In previous cases, law enforcement did not even have to charge the owner with a crime. The owner would then have to go to court to get their property back. Now, these new laws prohibit police officers from taking property for suspected drug crimes ...

That’s right … … … he didn’t!Jeffrey Epstein did NOT kill himself.“I was incarcerated as an inmate awaiting trial in a county jail in New York very similar to Jeff Epstein’s situation. For reasons that are too long to explain here, the jail had me under suicide watch because my case was so HUGE at the time. They had me under such close observation that I could not even pee in my cell toilet without the whole jail staff watching my every move. Not only that, but they stripped me of every single possible means of killing myself. They wouldn’t even let me have a short strand of dental floss after eating.

Violent ads for a movie about blue state elitists hunting red state Trump supporters for sport have been pulled in the aftermath of the mass shootings. Studio executives say that they fear the tragedies will eclipse the ultra-dark and violent satire. TV station ESPN has yanked the trailer without waiting for Universal to make up its mind, opting not to air the clip at all in the next few weeks, according to a source at the station, reported RT. While one Universal insider claimed the studio was standing by producer Jason Blum, who has reliably turned out successful films including the “Purge” series and “Get Out,” they characterized the situation as ...

A 13-year-old boy has just received a lesson in “patriotism” at a Montana county fair. He suffered a fractured skull and several hours of bleeding from his ears for refusing to remove his hat during the singing of the National Anthem. That’s because 39-year-old Curt James Brockwell picked the kid up by his throat and slammed him into the ground. Brockwell declared that the boy “was disrespecting the national anthem so he had every right to do that.” The City Council in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, recently voted to stop reciting the Pledge of Allegiance at the start of city council meetings. They soon encountered 100 angry protestors waving American flags and ...

Enough with the sniping and name-calling and mud-slinging that do nothing to make this country safer or freer or more just. We have let the government’s evil-doing, its abuses, power grabs, brutality, meanness, inhumanity, immorality, greed, corruption, debauchery and tyranny go on for too long. We are approaching a reckoning. This is the point, as the poet W. B. Yeats warned, when things fall apart and anarchy is loosed upon the world. We have seen this convergence before in Hitler’s Germany, in Stalin’s Russia, in ...

Gun confiscation is picking up steam among congressional Republicans in the wake of President Donald Trump's call for "red flag" gun control laws which allow unelected government bureaucrats to seize people's guns after arbitrarily deeming them a "threat" to themselves or others. From New York Times, "Red Flag' Gun Control Bills Pick Up Momentum With G.O.P. in Congress":Congressional Republicans, under pressure to respond to this weekend's massacres, appear to be coalescing around legislation to help law enforcement to take guns from those who pose an imminent danger -- a measure that, if signed into law, would be the most significant gun safety ...
The Puzzle of Identifying Future Mass Murderers Cannot Be Solved by Psychiatry, Background Checks, or Red Flag Laws

Writing in The New York Times, psychiatrist Richard Friedman notes that "experienced psychiatrists fare no better than a roll of the dice at predicting violence." He therefore thinks it is unrealistic to rely on the mental health system to identify future mass shooters and stop them before they kill anyone, as Donald Trump has suggested. Yet Friedman argues that "more effective policies might involve gun control, including enhancing background checks and expanding so-called extreme risk protection orders, which would allow law enforcement to temporarily remove firearms from people deemed potentially violent."Those policies, of course, rely on identifying people who ...

A few weeks ago, I noticed a woman standing in my neighbor’s yard doing something I thought was pretty damn strange: she was measuring blades of grass with a tape measure. Then I noticed the city truck parked on the street. Turns out, the woman was with codes compliance or whatever they call it…apparently, her job is to drive around looking for reasons to harass and extort people for things like tall grass. When I realized who she was and what she was doing, my next thoughts were “Are there not real problems in this city that need attention? There are people who drive around and measure grass for a living? And these employees are paid with taxpayer money…to extort ...

On Friday, the Trump administration released their annual report to Congress on White House Office Personnel. It includes the name, status, salary and position title of all 377 White House employees. The report also said that Trump decided not to take a dime of his salary; instead he donated it to an amazing cause. The report also showed that President Trump is far better at saving money. The total annual White House salaries under Trump are $35.8 million vs. $60.9 million under Obama, a savings of $25.1 million. Here are some other key findings: There are 140 fewer employees on White House staff under Trump than under Obama at this point in their respective presidencies. There are ...

Political arguments have become more ridiculous than this woman explaining what ‘miles per hour’ really means. Everywhere you look, people on both sides of the aisle look for any reason to scream and shout that their opinion is the right one. But while many don’t agree with the national anthem protests that grabbed the sports world’s attention in recent years, every American should believe in showing respect during the Star-Spangled Banner. “Respect” takes different forms. Military veterans salute the flag and regular citizens are asked to stand and face the flag. Another recommended sign of respect, even though thousands upon thousands of men and women ...

By Michael Maharrey DENVER, Colo. (Aug. 6, 2019) – Last week, four Colorado laws that will help expand the legal marijuana market in the state went into effect despite federal prohibition. House Bill 1230 (HB1230) legalizes limited on-site sales and consumption of marijuana in licensed, public establishments. These include restaurants, hotels, music venues and other businesses. Dispensaries will be able to open “tasting rooms.” The law also authorizes marijuana tour buses and limos. Establishments running the vehicles can’t sell cannabis, but marijuana consumption is allowed in licensed tour buses and limos in a “bring-your-own-weed” system. House Bill 1234 ...
