Trump Budget Would Slash Domestic Spending, Boost Military Spending
Post Date: 2019-03-11 09:46:38 by Deckard

On Monday, President Trump will officially propose his new budget plan, which calls for major cuts in domestic spending across the board, but which also seeks a large further increase in military spending, above and beyond the increases already planned. Exact figures aren’t clear at this point, but what is clear is that the general direction of this budget is going to face major opposition within the House of Representatives, not just from the Democratic leadership, but from some Republicans as well. It’s not just the heavily military-centric priorities that will fuel the opposition, though clearly that is part of it. The budget proposal also ditches the Republicans’ goal of ...
Alabama judge allows teen to sue on behalf of aborted fetus

A teenager in Alabama is suing an abortion clinic for terminating the life of his unborn child against his wishes. On Tuesday, an Alabama county court recognized the aborted fetus, "Baby Roe," as a plaintiff in the lawsuit, making the case one of the first of its kind, his lawyer said. Ryan Magers, 19, of Madison County, claims his girlfriend got a medicated abortion at the Alabama Women's Center for Reproductive Alternatives in Huntsville in February 2017 when she was six weeks pregnant, according to legal documents, even though he urged her not to terminate the pregnancy. Alabama recognizes the personhood of a fetus, so Magers is suing on behalf of the fetus and himself. ...

A student who contracted measles has infected 21 other people with ties to a Jewish school in New York City, according to health officials. The incident comes amid a measles outbreak in Brooklyn that has sickened more than 100 people. The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene says 133 cases of measles have been reported since the outbreak began in October. The majority of the people infected reside in the Brooklyn neighborhoods of Borough Park and Williamsburg. The first case reported was a child who was unvaccinated and contracted measles while on a trip to Israel, according to the health department. In December, the health department issued a mandatory directive that ...
Wanted: Some intellectual consistency on abortion

Libertarians and the Left have long advocated for keeping morals out of politics. But when it comes to abortion, that position just doesn’t hold up. The abortion debate is very different now from what it once was. It has been advanced recently by the appointment of Justice Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, New York’s unrestricted full-term abortion law, infanticidal remarks by Virginia's governor and attempts in Richmond to enshrine abortion as a right up to the very moment of birth. What's more, politicians and doctors are no longer unsure about the science, as they were in the day of Roe v. Wade. Nor are the Left and the Right squabbling over a woman’s access ...
Why mandatory vaccination is not opposed to libertarian principles

Just one day after bravely standing for the Constitution and against President Trump's unconstitutional national emergency declaration, the occasionally libertarian Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., spent a Senate health committee hearing promulgating the fatal and idiotic lie that laws requiring vaccinations violate individual freedom. It was a nice 24 hours, and quite frankly, I hope the senator takes a monumental step back and realizes the fallacy he presented to the public. "As we contemplate forcing parents to choose this or that vaccine, I think it’s important to remember that force is not consistent with the American story, nor is force consistent with the liberty our ...

‘Captain Marvel’ Drowns in Victimhood, Dull Action

Brie Larson’s promotional push for “Captain Marvel” couldn’t be more woke. The Oscar winner railed against too many white male reporters, trumpeted the film’s feminist agenda and dictated which under-represented writers could pen her glossy magazine profiles. Super chutzpah! Surely Team Disney, the studio behind the massively successful MCU, wouldn’t inject her intersectional shtick into a four-quadrant crowd pleaser? Actually, the Mouse House did. Only it’s not the only maddening aspect of this super-letdown. “Captain Marvel” suffers from anemic characters, lame comic relief and, worst of all, a talented actress who’s all wrong to play ...

Pentagon Spent $4.6 Million on Lobster Tail and Crab in One Month
Post Date: 2019-03-09 22:35:36 by Deckard

The federal government spends a disproportionate amount of its budget for outside contractors in the final month of the fiscal year, as agencies rush to blow through cash before it's too late. Among the more noteworthy expenditures in 2018, according to the watchdog group Open the Books, was $4.6 million for lobster tail and crab. Such use-it-or-lose-it spending stems from the fact that each federal agency is given a certain amount of money it can spend on outside contractors for the fiscal year. If the agency comes in under budget, Congress might decide to appropriate less money the following year. Or as The Office's Oscar Martinez explains to Michael Scott in "The ...

Killeen, TX — Disturbing video of a murder in Killeen, Texas was published in 2017 by the Free Thought Project of a man being murdered in broad daylight. The Free Thought Project reported on this video to help seek justice for Curtis E. Shelley after police refused to arrest his killer. Now, after a year of inaction, we learned that the killer—who is the son of a Killeen police officer—will have no charges filed against him. The Bell County Grand Jury met Wednesday and no charges were returned in the killing of Shelley. Naturally, the Shelley family was devastated and were quick to claim that the suspect got away with murder because he’s the son of a cop. As KCEN ...
Sleeping (in your car) is Now a Crime

It’s become one of those self-evident truths Massa Tom once wrote about to state that government has become overtly punitive – as opposed to keeping the peace, its sole legitimate function. There are many examples. Here is the latest. Virginia’s Roanoke County has hurled a fatwa (news story here) making it a crime to sleep in your own car – even if that car is parked on your own property. Which nicely delineates the true ownership of “your” property. “Violators” are subject to arrest – and a $250 fine. Also a possible Hut! Hut! Hutting! – since the fatwa endows armed government workers with the legal power to come onto private property, rap ...

DeSoto, TX — The incremental use of police officer body cameras over the last decade has proven to be both a huge asset to police accountability as well as a source of constant controversy. Many times, police departments will simply refuse to release potentially incriminating video, while other times, officers turn them off before committing a crime. As the following case illustrates, despite being required to film all their interactions, many cops will do the exact opposite when they are about to inflict violence on compliant individuals. Last August, Sammie Anderson made the mistake of contacting the police to help break up an argument between her two ...

Boliver, MO — In December of last year, medical marijuana was officially legalized in Missouri—sort of. The legislation, titled Amendment 2, would establish 192 medical marijuana dispensaries by 2020. Those who need that medical marijuana now—like cancer patients, epileptics, glaucoma patients, those suffering from PTSD, and others—will still be prosecuted by police if they try to get it. As the following incident shows, police will even raid cancer patients in the hospital for using it.

Trump on Friday accepted the resignation of Shine, a former Fox News executive who had spent just nine months on the job, severing his most visible link to the conservative network — but likely not changing his relationship ...

New York, NY — It has been over a year since then 18-year-old Anna Chambers accused two on-duty NYPD officers of raping her in the back of a police van on the night of September 15th, 2017. As emphatically as she claims she was raped and did not consent to having sex with two police officers, she asserts not only have the police continued to attempt to intimidate her but the very justice system she looked to for help was set up to help the alleged rapists. Now, her claims have been proven correct. Both of the officers, Eddie Martins and Richard Hall had faced up to 25 years in prison on the original rape and kidnapping charges, But this week, they had all those charges dropped. ...

Houston, TX — As TFTP reported last month, Houston-area prosecutors announced they will examine 1,400 cases which are linked to the cop who fabricated evidence to spark the raid on an innocent couple—in which they were murdered in their own home by police. Now, this week, nearly 1,000 more cases will be reviewed that are tied to another officer who was also relieved of duty, Houston police officer Steven Bryant. Last month, the FBI announced that they will be investigating the officers involved in the raid on Dennis and Rhogena Tuttle who were massacred in their own home. Houston District Attorney Kim Ogg previously announced that the 1,400 cases tied to Officer Gerald ...

Americans' Least Favorite Company Isn't Even a Company. Can You Guess What It Is?

According to a new Axios Harris Poll, Americans' least favorite company is the U.S. government. The fact that the U.S. government even made it onto the list is surprising in itself, considering the fact that it's not actually a company. A sample of 6,188 Americans were asked to name the company they believed to have the best reputation and the one with the worst. Then, Axios and Harris took the top 100 "most visible" companies and asked a separate group of 18,228 people to rate them based on a variety of factors. Last year the U.S. government didn't make the "most visible" list. This year it did, and the results speak for themselves. Political party ...

Nearly two-thirds of Americans believe that Donald Trump committed crimes before he became president, according to a new Quinnipiac poll conducted after Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen testified to Congress. Among those surveyed, 64 percent believe that the president committed crimes before he was elected, with 24 percent saying they don’t think he did. Those polled were split on whether they believe Trump has committed crimes while in office: According to the poll, 45 percent believe the president has, while 43 percent say he hasn’t. Cohen last week gave a high-profile public hearing to Congress in which he commented on the president’s personal character, as well as ...

“We are grateful to the Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government.
