Sheila Jackson Lee Says the Unthinkable About Killing of Black Girl by Black Man

A tragic death that was wrongly held up as a racial attack has forced many on the left to quickly backpedal, but a Democrat congresswoman is bizarrely doubling-down on her inflammatory rhetoric. Back on Dec. 30, a 7-year-old girl named Jazmine Barnes was shot and killed in Houston. Barnes was black, a fact that should not matter but quickly became a major factor in the case. At first, authorities thought a white man may have been involved in the crime. They posted details about a person of interest in the case, but made it clear that this was only one of several angles they were looking into. As it turns out, two men have been arrested in the case and charged with capital murder in ...
To the APA, Transgenderism is Fine but Masculinity is a Mental Illness

In 2015, the American Psychological Association released new guidance on how their members should work with people suffering from gender confusion. The first rule: They aren’t confused. Hell, they don’t even need to be treated for mental illness at all. No, in fact, it is YOU who are confused and ignorant. Ignorant as to the deep, rich history of transgender people in the United States and other cultures throughout the world! “Psychologists who work with transgender or gender nonconforming people should seek to provide acceptance, support and understanding without making assumptions about their clients’ gender identities or gender expressions, according to practice ...
Is Michelle Obama Plotting to Take the White House in 2020?

Recently, the mainstream media gleefully reported something that many at first dismissed, quickly passing it off as nothing more than a transient morsel of cultural trivia, if not fake news. Allegedly, a recent Gallup Poll not only bestowed upon Michelle Obama the honor of being The Most Admired Woman in 2018,but also thereby declared her to be more popular than Hillary and Oprah! I would suggest this news might represent an ominous bellwether of measurable import to all of us who are hoping to see President Trump elected to a second term. In politics, 2020 is but a blink away, and who will be anointed by the Democrats to challenge President Trump is being decided right now. And I ...
The Root of Police Militarization

Ben Swann takes a look at the root of police militarization and why even if military equipment is removed from police departments across the nation, militarization will not come to an end. Benswann.com has been working to raise awareness about the militarization of police for over a year, "the rest of the media acted like they had no idea." The program ignored by the mainstream media is the 1033 program. Also called the Department of Defense Excess Property Program, this platform is used by police departments to obtain military equipment. Swann explains: "It is a federal program that provides surplus DoD military equipment to state and local civilian law enforcement ...
“Dirty Harry” Callahan and the Trump Derangement Syndrome

Image Source: Flickr/BagoGames Almost forty years ago criminologist Carl Klockars termed the proclivity of some police officers to brutalize citizens and break other laws in the name of their own version of justice as “The Dirty Harry Problem.” The moniker, of course, comes from Clint Eastwood’s “Go ahead, make my day” Inspector Harry Callahan character in several movies of the 1970s and 80s. Harry got the job done, but used dirty means to do it. That was OK, because his ends were always good. Much of Professor Klockars’s analysis can be analogically applied to what has become known as the Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) among those in the progressive Left ...
How Times Have Changed: Pentagon Papers Whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg Wins The 2018 Olof Palme Human Rights Prize—48 Years Later

An incredible, but late, distinction and well-placed honor has been awarded to one of the preeminent whistleblowers in history, the now-87-year-old Daniel Ellsberg, who blew the whistle about what became known as the Pentagon Papers[1]. Ellsberg’s late-coming honor was for his “profound humanism and exceptional moral courage,” revealing successive U.S. administrations had lied to the public about the Vietnam War. The following insightful statement by the award jury demonstrates, in my opinion, just how stupidly Controllers have embraced the idea that those who ‘govern’ are not accountable to those whom they govern: Regardless of such consequences, his decision led ...
Does Legalizing Marijuana Cause 'Sharp Increases in Murders and Aggravated Assaults'?
Post Date: 2019-01-10 08:15:56 by Deckard
2 Comments
Alex Berenson, the former New York Times reporter who has just published an anti-pot polemic that he aptly named after a notoriously hysterical 1936 anti-pot movie, says marijuana legalization "appears to lead to an increase in violent crime." Like his claim that marijuana causes schizophrenia and other "serious mental illnesses," his claim that it causes violence is based on a highly selective reading of the evidence. "The first four states to legalize—Alaska, Colorado, Oregon and Washington—have seen sharp increases in murders and aggravated assaults since 2014, according to reports from the Federal Bureau of Investigation," Berenson writes in the ...

Killer cops Manny Ramos and Jay Cicinelli are the costumed goons who brutally beat Kelly Thomas to death on July 5, 2011. Mr. Thomas was a 37-year old homeless man who suffered from severe mental illness. On the evening in question, Fullerton Police received a call referencing a suspicious subject in the parking lot of the Fullerton Transit Center. The caller (who has never been identified, although various reports indicate may have been a manager at the SlideBar) reported that the man might be attempting to break into parked cars. Officer Ramos responded to the call with his partner, Officer Joe Wolfe. According to the digital voice recorders worn by the ...

“For seven decades we have been yielding our most basic liberties to a secretive, unaccountable emergency state – a vast but increasingly misdirected complex of national security institutions, reflexes, and beliefs that so define our present world that we forget that there was ever a different America. ... Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness have given way to permanent crisis management: to policing the planet and fighting preventative wars of ideological containment, usually on terrain chosen by, and favorable to, our enemies. Limited government and constitutional accountability have been shouldered aside by the kind of imperial presidency our constitutional system was ...

I have long assumed that such vermin as Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, Maxine Waters, or Donna Shalala are the lowest of the low for the female of the predatory species, Tyrannosaurus Democraticus. After all, how likely is it that any woman anywhere could be uglier, viler, more corrupt, tackier, phonier, more asinine and Marxist than these four? But I was wrong. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) may well surpass them. Not by much, mind you. But even to be in the running with such stiff competition after one week in the US House is impressive. Were I a betting gal, my money would say ol’ Rash will nauseate more Americans more mercilessly than even Maxine, the Mistress of Malaise. First, though, ...

Adults should have the right to make their own decisions about what to put in their own bodies.Ten states and Washington, D.C., have now legalized adult use of marijuana. Supporters of America's long war on drugs said legalization would create disaster. Has it? No. Colorado and Washington offer the longest points of comparison because weed has been legal in those states now for five years. More people in Colorado tried marijuana after legalization, but that's not a surprise. Colorado's crime rate did rise a bit. But many things influence crime rates. Washington state's violent crime rate rose a little but slightly less than the national average. In California, people I ...

And take the rest of your federal colleagues with you.Understandably, Transportation Security Administration (TSA) employees are no more enthusiastic about working when their paychecks are delayed than is anybody else on the planet. That's why they've been calling-in sick in increased numbers—some to seek temporary work elsewhere in order to pay their bills—as the more-theater-than-reality "government shutdown" drags on. But, isn't this an opportunity for us all? Given that the world is a better place when TSA employees and other government minions don't do their jobs, and some are already seeking alternative employment, what a great opportunity to shut ...

Ocasio-Cortez Suggests Illegal Immigrants ‘More American’ Than Trump Supporters

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) responded to President Donald Trump’s Oval Office address Tuesday evening, claiming illegal immigrants “act more American” than proponents of strong border security. In an interview with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, Ocasio-Cortez accused President Trump of holding the paychecks of furloughed government workers “hostage” to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, a proposal the self-avowed Democrat- socialist described as a “campaign fantasy.” “In the actual address, there was falsehood after falsehood and we have to make sure that we get our facts straight. Everyday immigrants commit crimes at a far lower rate ...

President Trump walked out of a White House meeting with congressional leaders Wednesday afternoon over the partial government shutdown after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi again rejected supporting new funding for a border wall, according to those in the meeting. Speaking to reporters after the brief session, New York Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer, the Senate minority leader, said the “president just got up and walked out." The president, in a tweet, called the meeting “a total waste of time” and appeared to confirm that he left after Pelosi's answer. “I asked what is going to happen in 30 days if I quickly open things up, are you going to approve Border ...
Tuberculosis, flu, infections rampant as the number of sick migrants surge at border

Border authorities are referring 50 people a day for urgent medical care, including tuberculosis, flu and even pregnant women about to give birth, a top official said Monday, saying it’s unlike anything they’ve ever seen before. Most of those in need of care are children, and a staggering 28 percent are under age 5, having been dragged along for the trip by parents who in many cases are hoping to use the children as a shield against speedy deportation from the U.S. The numbers were released after a full review was done of all children in the custody of Customs and Border Protection in the wake of two illegal-immigrant children who died in U.S. hospitals in December.

A 25-year-old woman with a concealed carry license shot and killed the man trying to rob her at gunpoint near a Chicago bus station Tuesday morning, police said -- noting she needed just a single shot to take down the would-be robber. The unidentified woman was at the bus stop in Chicago’s Fernwood neighborhood just after 6 a.m. when the man, identified as 19-year-old Laavion Goings, pulled a gun and attempted to rob her, WLS reported. Surveillance video from a nearby convenience store showed the woman waiting at the stop and Goings approaching her and aiming his gun, officials said.The woman, however, was prepared. She pulled out her own weapon and shot Goings in the neck before ...

Newark, OH — Disturbing video has surfaced this month showing a Newark police officer blowing through a school bus stop sign as small children exited the bus. After being questioned about the video, the department responded by claiming they didn’t know it was illegal. Adding to the corrupt nature of this incident is the fact that this wasn’t just any officer in the department—it was Newark’s top cop, Chief Barry Connell. The incident happened on October 10, but the video was only just released this month. Chief Connel claims he sped by the stopped school bus as small children exited because he thought he had the right to do so while on official business—as if ...

President Trump did something Tuesday night that he has rarely done since taking office: He used the presidential bully pulpit to reach beyond his hardcore base of supporters to make his case to the American people as a whole. Speaking from the Oval Office for the first time during his presidency, Trump embraced our country’s tradition as a nation of immigrants, declaring “America proudly welcomes millions of lawful immigrants who enrich our society and contribute to our nation.” He then offered a cogent explanation why he believes we face what he called “a humanitarian crisis — a crisis of the heart and a crisis of the soul” along our southern border.

Remember the hassles Rick Simpson went through in his Canadian Nova Scotia town trying to bring the cannabis oil cures he and others used to cure themselves of various cancers? Rick assumed the world was ready for him to share the good news from his and his townspeople’s experiences. After several attempts to get cannabis oil allowed through the court system with many testimonials from those who had been helped, Rick realized this important harsh reality: The cancer industry does not want a cure for cancer. He was growing the hemp on his land, making the cannabis oil, and sharing it without cost to those who had needed it after curing his skin cancer and a fiercely ...
Supreme Court turns down mysterious Mueller subpoena fight

The Supreme Court has declined to intervene in a mysterious subpoena fight that apparently involved an unidentified foreign-government-owned company and special counsel Robert Mueller. Last month, the unknown firm asked the high court to block a federal judge’s contempt order and $50,000-a-day penalty for refusing to comply with the subpoena, arguing that the company is immune from U.S. grand jury subpoenas. The company also insisted that complying with the subpoena would violate the law in the firm’s home country. But on Tuesday, the Supreme Court turned down the company’s request to step into the dispute, at least for now. The order in the case came a little more than two ...
