The local media in Glendale, AZ is doing a capital job reporting on the story of the AGW who brutalized the passenger in a car pulled over for an alleged minor traffic violation – failure to signal a turn. (Original story here.) It turns out, the AGW may have made that up – the failure to signal – in order to have a pretext to brutalize the people in the stopped-for-no-legal-reason car. ABC affiliate reporter Dave Biscobing has been dogged in his pursuit of the facts about AGW Matt Schneider – the sadist who ended up Tasering the passenger of the stopped car 11 times, including a shot in the balls, after the AGW pulled his pants down – after the man had been ...

Military spending is growing around the world and in 2017 it increased by 1.1 percent, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute. U.S. arms expenditures rose by $9.6 billion, driving the global rise and further consolidating the status of the United States as the world’s top spender on the military–by far. The U.S. spending on war is rooted in post-World War II “new Pentagon capitalism” that eventually became known as the military-industrial complex. The model, revolutionized by then-Army Chief of Staff and later President Dwight D. Eisenhower, ensured that the United States’ scientific research, technological and industrial capacity would ...

AUSTIN, Texas (TAC) – A bill filed in the Texas Senate would set the foundation to nullify federal gun control in practice and effect. Sen. Bob Hall (R-Edgewood) filed Senate Bill 378 (SB378) on January 17. The bill would prohibit any state government agency, personnel or public funds from enforcing any federal gun control regulation or law “if the federal statute, order, rule, or regulation or international law imposes a prohibition, restriction, or other regulation, such as a capacity, size, or configuration limitation, that does not exist under the laws of this state.” State agencies and local governments would not be allowed to receive state grant money if they adopt any ...

Salt Lake Tribune – by Jessica MillerA Utah lawmaker set a goal to remove any incentive any Utah police officer could have to unnecessarily take money from someone.State law allows officers to seize property — even from people who are never charged, let alone convicted of a crime — under a process called civil asset forfeiture. Concerned about the potential for abuse, Sen. Todd Weiler, R-Woods Cross, had hoped SB109 would put more safeguards in place.But even the insinuation that an officer would improperly seize cash or items from a suspect brought a big backlash from Utah’s police agencies, where leaders argue the tool, used largely against drug dealers, is not ...
Trump Looks To Nationalize 5G

Trump apparently wants to control 5G in a ‘state-run’ socialist twist to American capitalism—and now there are indications that it could become part of the 2020 election campaign. Over the weekend, President Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign team renewed its controversial pitch on nationalizing the country’s 5G network. In other words, the government would have control of 5G airwaves and lease access to private wireless providers. Kayleigh McEnany, a Trump 2020 campaign spokeswoman, told Politico that a wholesale 5G market would drive down costs and provide access to millions of Americans who are currently underserved. “This is in line ...

Attorney General William Barr will not recuse himself from overseeing Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation, a representative said Monday. “Following General Barr’s confirmation, senior career ethics officials advised that General Barr should not recuse himself from the Special Counsel’s investigation,” Kerri Kupec, the Director of the Office of Public Affairs at the Department of Justice, told Fox News in a statement. “Consistent with that advice, General Barr has decided not to recuse," she added. During his confirmation hearing in January, Barr said he believed it was in the public interest for Mueller to complete his investigation ...

BBQ Becky, eat your heart out. A white Massachusetts woman has gone viral for reportedly calling the cops on a black man because his dog was humping hers — at a dog park. “We got ‘DOG PARK DEBBIE’ in this mf,” wrote one Twitter user in response to the Wednesday afternoon incident, which was partly caught on camera. Franklin Baxley, 42, posted cellphone footage on his Facebook page showing the woman — who has yet to be identified — freaking out over the doggy debauchery. “Why did this lady just call the cops on me claiming my dog ‘assaulted’ her dog when it tried to hump her dog,” Baxley asked in a video caption.

Say the wrong thing or associate with the wrong person, and the left will lose you. It seems today’s conservatives are more moderate than today’s liberals.Recently, I went to have a beer with one of my friends from my former life as a social justice crusader. He’s one of the few left-leaning friends I have left since I was mobbed and shamed out of my lefty, social justice community for “toxic behavior” on Twitter (in a straight-up Justine Sacco-style event). He’s a great guy, and he’s still friends with my old friends, so when we meet, it’s a secretive thing. As I was on my way, I started thinking about just how many people I had lost in my life over ...

Gateway Pundit – by Christina Laila President Trump rocked CPAC on Saturday with a fiery speech that lasted over two hours. The President gave the CPAC crowd plenty of red meat by ripping the Deep State Russia witch hunt, blasting Democrats and mocking the Green New Deal. President Trump then made a very important announcement Saturday after he brought the conservative activist who was sucker-punched at UC Berkeley, Hayden Williams onto the stage. “Today I am proud to announce that I will be very soon signing an executive order requiring colleges and universities to support free speech if they want federal research dollars.” The CPAC crowd went wild and gave ...

The inevitable has happened. Volvo just announced that it will limit the top speed of all its new cars to 112 MPH, beginning with the 2021 model year – to “highlight the dangers of speeding.” But it’s not just top speed Volvo intends to limit. In addition to electronically preventing its cars from exceeding 112 MPH anywhere, it plans to limit you from exceeding the speed limit in school zones and -implicitly – everywhere else. “We want to start a conversation about whether car makers have the right or maybe even the obligation to install technology in cars that changes their driver’s behavior,” croons Volvo’s president and chief executive ...

GOP Rep. Justin Amash on Sunday did not rule out a run for the White House in 2020 as a libertarian, but said it was "not on his radar." "I would never rule anything out," the Michigander said on CNN's "State of the Union." "That's not on my radar right now, but I think that it is important that we have someone in there who is presenting a vision for America that is different from what these two parties are presenting," he said. Amash is the chairman of the House Liberty Caucus, which represents libertarian-minded lawmakers. Amash, who was first elected as part of the tea party wave in 2010, notably did not endorse Donald Trump for ...

It looks like Senate Democrats now have the votes they need to pass a resolution that would block President Donald Trump’s national emergency declaration to fund his border wall. Four Republicans — Sens. Susan Collins, Thom Tillis, Lisa Murkowski, and Rand Paul — have said they plan to vote in favor of terminating the national emergency, giving Democrats the 51-vote majority they need to approve the resolution in the upper chamber. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell acknowledged just as much during a Monday press appearance, though he emphasized that Congress wouldn’t have the votes to override a presidential veto, which Trump is expected to use, CBS News’s ...

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) disclosed on Saturday that he will vote in support of a resolution this month to block President Trump's emergency declaration, reports the Bowling Green Daily News. "I can’t vote to give the president the power to spend money that hasn’t been appropriated by Congress. We may want more money for border security, but Congress didn’t authorize it. If we take away those checks and balances, it’s a dangerous thing." Why it matters: Paul's vote, along with the votes of Republican Sens. Susan Collins (Maine), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) and Thom Tillis (N.C.), gives the Senate the majority necessary to block Trump's national ...

Kentucky Senator Rand Paul's decision not to back President Donald Trump's border-based national emergency exposed a growing rift in the Republican Party— between those who profess extreme loyalty to Trump and those whose ultimate devotion is to the U.S. Constitution. Diehard Trump supporters lashed out at the libertarian-leaning Republican senator after he announced over the weekend he would oppose Trump's emergency declaration, guaranteeing the president would have to veto the congressional resolution to rescind the declaration. Paul explained that he could not support the unnecessary expansion of presidential power over a U.S. border fight he does not consider to be an ...

The officer involved was not on duty at the time of the arrest. Jackson‘s lawyer, Mawuli Davis, says that he wasn’t even ...
Businesses That Should Not Exist

Among other things, libertarians — and even most conservatives — are known for extolling the virtues of capitalism, the free market, commerce, trade, free enterprise, and entrepreneurship. They are generally defenders of business as long as there is an absence of protectionism, crony capitalism, and corporate welfare. Even so, from a libertarian perspective, there are still some businesses that should not exist. According to the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), there are in the United States about 28 million small businesses (defined as having fewer than 500 employees) and about 18,500 firms with 500 employees or more. Although most large firms are corporations, small ...

In September of 2014, I had these words to say: "The president acts like he's a king. He ignores the Constitution. He arrogantly says, 'If Congress will not act, then I must.' Donald J. Trump agreed with me when he said in November 2014 that President Barack Obama couldn’t make a deal on immigration so “now he has to use executive action, and this is a very, very dangerous thing that should be overridden easily by the Supreme Court.” I would literally lose my political soul if I decided to treat President Trump different than President Obama. (Although, I’ll note, not one Democrat criticized Obama for his executive orders.) I support President Trump. ...

The Veteran from World War II wanted some birthday cards. He wanted a hundred of them. Darn it is to late his Birthday was today.
That doesn't mean we can't still send him a letter.
So if you are so inclined how about sending him a letter and thanking him for his service during World War II. And congratulating him on turning 100. I'm sure he would appreciate it. We are running out of World War II Veterans. So how about letting him know his generation was appreciated. That we will miss them when they are gone and we are really missing them right now, the ones who have alredy passed.

Ashland City, TN — Last August, Mark Campbell was sitting in his house when two strangers showed up at his door. These two strangers lightly knocked and told Campbell that they had guns. Moments later, bullets came flying through Campbell’s door and nearly killed him and his wife. Instead of the two strangers getting arrested for attempted murder, Campbell found himself in jail—because the two strangers were cops. That night, Campbell had done nothing wrong when Cheatham county sheriff’s deputies — Sgt. Doug Fox and Chris Austin showed up to his home. The deputies claim they were responding to a 911 hang up, but according to Campbell’s attorney, he never ...
