FCC censorship of political websites could soon be on the horizon By Alex Thomas (INTELLIHUB) — The internet could soon be regulated by the federal government based off of political content, according to Federal Communications Commission member Ajit Pai. Speaking at a conference in Washington, Pai revealed his belief that internet censorship could be on the horizon and even detailed how he and his family had been targeted due to his outspoken opposition to net neutrality. His comments show the fine line free speech proponents face when attempting to use the FCC to stop corrupt corporations from ruling the internet. On one hand, regulating these corporations through net neutrality seems ...
This Is Why They Are Militarizing: ‘The World Will Become Baltimore When People Realize They Cannot Acquire Basic Resources’

No matter the negative economic news or weak corporate earnings, stock markets continue to reach news highs and mainstream media pundits toe the party line. But how is this possible, given that tens of millions are out of the workforce, on food stamps and completely broke? The answer, according to Gregory Mannarino, is quite simple. The world’s central banks and governments have been left with no other option. They are throwing absolutely everything they can at the problem in an effort to keep the system propped up for as long as possible. But as Mannarino notes in his recent interview with Greg Hunter’s USA Watchdog, it’s nothing more than a setup that will leave ...

Houston, TX — A U.S. district court judge ruled last week that the Drug Enforcement Administration is not liable for a botched marijuana sting that killed one of its own informants. The 2011 sting was an attempt to capture members of a violent Mexican drug cartel and required the informant, a truck driver, to deliver pounds of the plant to the suspects. After the plot failed, the DEA refused to take responsibility for its failure. The sting involved informant Lawrence Chapa, who worked for a small trucking company in Houston, Texas. When he delivered the drugs from Rio Grande City to a location in Houston, two dozen federal agents and local law enforcement officers were ...

Controversy over the use of the word “thug” in the wake of the Baltimore riots continued Sunday with former CNN host Soledad O’Brien weighing in to claim the word has racial overtones. “I can’t think of a situation where there’s ever been a headline or someone has called a white young person who’s in the middle of a violent protest, demonstration, whatever, a thug,” she told guest host Frank Sesno on “Reliable Sources.” “We use it all the time when we’re talking about people in the inner city.” Sesno pointed out that no racial connotation s given in the dictionary definition of the word and that the word was also used by ...
CRATER COLLAPSE CAUSES LAVA EXPLOSION ON HAWAII'S KILAUEA

HONOLULU (AP) -- Molten lava, rocks and gas went flying through the air on Hawaii's Kilauea volcano after an explosion was caused by the partial collapse of a crater wall. The collapse triggered a small explosion, spreading lava and debris around the rim of Kilauea's Halemaumau Crater, the U.S. Geological Survey's Hawaiian Volcano Observatory says. Janet Babb, a geologist with the USGS, compared the blast on Sunday to taking a hammer to the top of a bottle of champagne. "You look at the bottle and you see the liquid, but you don't see the gas," she said. "There's a lot of gas in the lava. And so, when that rock fall hits the lava lake, it's like ...

GARLAND, Texas (AP) — Police shot and killed two gunmen who opened fire on a security officer outside a suburban Dallas venue hosting a provocative contest for Prophet Muhammad cartoons, and a bomb squad searched the gunmen's vehicle as a precaution, authorities said. The men drove up to the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland on Sunday night as the event was coming to an end and shot at the security officer, the City of Garland said in a statement. Garland police officers returned fire, killing the men. Garland police spokesman Joe Harn said it was not immediately clear whether the shooting was connected to the contest hosted by the New York-based American Freedom Defense ...

Dear Friends,
May I urge you to read this letter carefully? It has been written with a fervent prayer that you will recognize the urgency it conveys. It deals with a decision that is about to be announced by the U.S. Supreme Court, dealing with the definition of marriage. In late June or early July, the justices will reveal their decision to either affirm the definition of marriage as being exclusively between one man and one woman, or it will redefine this institution to include same-sex unions. If marriage is to be reconfigured in the law, which court-watchers predict is almost certain, every dimension of the culture will be adversely affected. It will be one of the most momentous ...

A city cop was critically wounded by a cowardly ex-con who blasted two bullets into his head on a Queens street Saturday evening — the fifth NYPD officer to be shot in as many months. Plainclothes officer Brian Moore, 25, was in a medically induced coma after surgery to relieve pressure on his brain, law-enforcement sources told The Post. The suspected gunman, Demetrius Blackwell, was in custody Saturday night after allegedly firing at Moore as the cop approached in an unmarked police car. “He’s far from out of the woods,” one law-enforcement source said of Moore, who was in surgery for more than four hours. A four-year NYPD veteran from a police family, Moore had ...

Thursday, April 3 This is what happens when I swap work hours with the day shift - I get all their weirdoes! About 2 pm today, in storms this woman who starts going totally apeshit at me and screaming incoherently while waving around a half-full bottle of malt vinegar. I had no idea what she was on about and, before I could find out, the police arrived - but I hadn't called them! Now, I know nearly every cop within fifty miles of my site (I call them all often enough), so when they come in, I greet them by name and they do the same back and tell me they've been called here because of allegations I've poisoned a small child. Wuh? The crazy lady identifies herself as the ...
Is Baltimore Prosecutor Wrong About the Legality of Freddie Gray's Knife?
Post Date: 2015-05-02 23:29:27 by Gatlin
31 Comments
Did State's Attorney for Baltimore City Marilyn Mosby make a grave prosecutorial error in declaring Freddie Gray's knife legal and the actions of Baltimore police improper? According to the Baltimore Sun, Mosby declared the knife legal because it was not a switchblade as specified by Maryland statute. As a result, Mosby claims the officers failed to establish probable cause for the arrest thereby acting illegally. But is the inexperienced prosecutor with only four months on the job, and no murder or high profile cases under her belt correct? It appears that is a matter of much debate, and will be a key element in the defense of the police officers. Officer Garret E. Miller, one ...
These Guys Ticked Off The Wrong Bankruptcy Judge

There are some lawyers out there with a real snooty attitude when it comes to federal bankruptcy judges. It’s like they don’t consider bankruptcy judges as “real” judges because they aren’t blessed under the auspices of Article III. As though lifetime tenure magically makes one a more acute legal mind or physically hotter (no matter what a certain Article III Groupie might think). These lawyers made the fatal mistake of disrespecting the wrong bankruptcy judge and that’s why they’re going to be spending some quality time in the jailhouse. On June 10, 2014, the Court entered a Judgment that, among other things, imposed $49,720.00 in sanctions upon James ...
IRS Seizes $107,000 From Innocent Small-Town Convenience Store Owner For 'Structuring' Deposits

Lyndon McLellan has spent more than a decade running L&M Convenience Mart, a gas station, restaurant, and convenience store in rural Fairmont, North Carolina. Then, one year ago, without any warning, agents from the IRS seized his entire bank account, totalling more than $107,000. With that, Lyndon entered the upside down world of civil forfeiture, where the government can seize and keep ordinary Americans’ property without ever charging them with a crime. The IRS and Department of Justice are pursuing forfeiture of Lyndon’s money despite a recent policy change designed to prevent precisely these kinds of cases. In October 2014, the IRS announced that (absent ...

Richard Glossip and two other prisoners are appealing against the use of a controversial lethal injection drug. But even if the court rules in their favour, the state of Oklahoma is already making alternative plans to execute them. The Supreme Court was told last week that Midazolam is not a powerful enough anaesthetic to render prisoners unconscious, before ...

Friends, wrap your head with duct tape (to prevent it from exploding). It’s Down-the-Rabbit-Hole time! If you’re age 40 years or older, you’d probably remember January 28, 1986. That was day of the Challenger disaster, when the NASA Space Shuttle orbiter Challenger broke apart 73 seconds into its flight over the Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of Cape Canaveral, Florida at 11:38 EST. All seven crew members were killed, including five NASA astronauts and two payload specialists. Millions of Americans (17% of the total population) watched the launch live on TV because of Payload Specialist Christa McAuliffe, the first teacher in space. Media coverage of ...
Questions Remain After Officers Charged in Death of Freddie Gray

On Friday, State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby released her list of charges against all six officers involved in the arrest and death of 25-year-old Freddie Gray, who died seven days after his arrest after his spine was 80 percent severed while in custody. Mosby’s charges ranged from second degree depraved heart murder for the driver of the van to manslaughter to misconduct in office to false imprisonment. Her account of the events preceding Gray’s death was far from comprehensive: she said that Gray ran from police after making eye contact with them, that Gray was arrested despite the fact that “no crime was committed,” that Gray was not provided a medic. She mentioned ...
