These people have no chill.All things considered, 2018 has been a pretty good year for weed in the United States. As Reason's Scott Shackford noted yesterday, Michigan and Vermont both legalized marijuana for recreational use, while Oklahoma, Utah, and Missouri all approved medical marijuana use. Plus, many places are working on expunging the criminal records of those convicted for marijuana-related crimes. And according to a Gallup poll from October, 66 percent of Americans support marijuana legalization. But it hasn't been all good, man. Around the country, there are policymakers and law enforcement officials who want to keep arresting cannabis users, growers, and sellers, and ...
Retailers Rejecting Customers’ Cash As More Ban Paper Money

“Your cash is not wanted here”, a growing number of retailers and restaurants throughout the US and UK are telling customers. But are reasons being given by companies for the new “cashless” approach — speed, efficiency, and the safety of store employees — valid enough to require something as utterly and downright unAmerican as rejecting cash? We think not, and unfortunately the trend of “cash not welcome here” establishments is growing, to the point that lawmakers are beginning to take note and could introduce legislation barring the practice, as Massachusetts has done already, and as the New Jersey State House could ...

German chancellor Angela Merkel gave a deeply disturbing speech at the Konrad Adenaur Foundation in Berlin, where she stated in no uncertain terms that the traditional idea of a nation-state is dead. Zero Hedge: "Nation states must today be prepared to give up their sovereignty", according to German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who told an audience in Berlin that sovereign nation states must not listen to the will of their citizens when it comes to questions of immigration, borders, or even sovereignty.

How as Americans do we explain the intransigence of the left when it comes to national security? 'Tis a mystery. These people, these Democrats in Congress, are among the most privileged persons on the planet. They have enjoyed, more than most, the blessings bequeathed by the Founders, the authors of the Constitution. Yet they are determined, like Obama, to transform us into something this nation was never meant to be: a land without borders. While all of them are on record supporting a border wall in the past, now that Donald Trump is president, they all oppose it with every fiber of their being. They know that it will work, and they cannot abide Trump having a win. These people – ...

We pointed out that overruling his advisors by ending the U.S. war on Syria was a decision that will define Trump's presidency: This was the first time Trump took a decisive stand against the borg, the permanent neoconservative and interventionist establishment in his administration, the military and congress, that usually dictates U.S. foreign policy. It was this decision, and that he stuck to it, which finally made him presidential. Three analysts explain why Trump will need to go further down that road by finding people who diligently implement his foreign policy instead of undermining it. Gareth Porter describes how the U.S. military under Secretary of Defense Mattis implemented ...

(Watch video at link) CNN)The House Judiciary Committee is looking for a few good lawyers. A recent committee job posting reviewed by CNN asked for legislative counsels with a variety of expertise: "criminal law, immigration law, constitutional law, intellectual property law, commercial and administrative law (including antitrust and bankruptcy), or oversight work." The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee needs lawyers, too, posting jobs for "executive branch investigative counsel."

911 emergency services in several states across the U.S. went down after a massive outage at a CenturyLink data center. The outage began after 12pm ET on Thursday, according to CenturyLink’s status page, and caused disruption across 911 call centers through Friday. Some states saw their services restored throughout the day. CenturyLink did not sy what caused the outage beyond an issue with a “network element,” but said around 11am ET on Friday that the company said that it was “seeing good progress, but our service restoration work is not complete.” After 8pm on Friday, more than a day later, CenturyLink confirmed that “all consumer services impacted by this ...
Kasich Accused of Flipping Key Senator To Murder The 'Heartbeat' Anti-Abortion Bill

>Outgoing “Republican” Ohio governor John Kasich stands accused of flipping a state senator who cast the decisive vote to uphold Kasich’s veto of the “Heartbeat” bill banning the aborting of unborn children with heartbeats in the state of Ohio. The Republican-controlled Ohio House rebuked Kasich by overriding the governor’s veto Thursday. But in the state senate, Kasich’s veto held on by one vote, much to the delight of Planned Parenthood and other abortion advocates. The vote was 19-13, one vote shy of the 20-12 split that conservatives were aiming for. However, pro-life activists are still optimistic that they can get rid of Kasich’s veto in the ...

A New York resident has developed a bacterial infection after drinking raw milk that likely came from a farm in Pennsylvania, the New York Department of Health announced this week. The resident, who has not been identified, was infected with RB51 -- a strain of the Brucella abortus bacteria, according to New York health officials -- after he or she drank raw milk that officials believe came from the Miller's Biodiversity Farm in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. On its website, Miller's says it's a “private food club” that “allows its members access to buying food directly from farms and other vendors, bypassing the supermarket.” The farm has been quarantined ...

A school system in Massachusetts is proving to be malicious, incompetent, or maybe both. Of course, we suspected that already. But the latest example comes from a lawsuit from a woman who pulled her 8-year-old son from Worcester Public Schools to homeschool him last January. Josilyn Goodall is suing the Worcester School Committee, Superintendent Maureen Binienda, and the state Department of Children and Families after police entered her home, handcuffed her, and arrested her over what amounted to a paperwork dispute. According to the lawsuit, Goodall is seeking unspecified compensatory damages for the violation of her Constitutional rights and for the “mental pain and suffering” ...

After resigning from his job at Eversource over being sexually harassed and going through a difficult breakup with his girlfriend, a local man was having a mental breakdown in early November inside his own home in Keene, New Hampshire. The man has asked to have his real name protected, so I will refer to him in this story as “NBR”. Running on very little sleep, stressed from losing his job and relationship, and dealing with an undiagnosed mental disorder, NBR was alone in his house and had been throwing his possessions out the window. According to NBR, when his parents, who love their son dearly, heard about his behavior they were quite concerned for his safety and well-being. ...

Another migrant caravan — this one estimated at 15,000 people — is preparing to leave Honduras on Jan. 15, according to migrant rights advocates and Spanish- language media. “They say they are even bigger and stronger than the last caravan,” said Irma Garrido, a member of the migrant advocacy group Reactiva Tijuana Foundation. Meanwhile, thousands of Central American migrants from a caravan that left Honduras in October remain stranded at the U.S.-Mexico border and languishing in crowded Tijuana shelters while they wait out a lengthy process to file asylum requests with the United States. Coordinators who helped direct the migrants on the 2,000-mile trek with ...

Ironically, the kids were watching the movie "Home Alone" when the cops showed up for no good reason.Last week in Muncie, Indiana, two boys—ages 7 and 4—were home alone watching, of all things, the beloved movie Home Alone, when their mom had to leave for work and couldn't find a babysitter. But unlike Kevin McAllister's mother in the film, this mom was thrown in jail. Her children were placed under the supervision of a relative, and she faces a neglect charge and a $10,000 bond. What, exactly, happened? The mom, Taylor Joann Cumings, had to go to work and struck out on a sitter, so she kept her older son out of school to watch her younger son, who was feeling ...

An alleged Russian troll farm, which has been indicted by Robert Mueller, said in a court filing Thursday that the special counsel has “obtained a nude selfie” as part of his investigation. The company, Concord Management and Consulting, filed a motion in court that claimed Mueller is unlawfully keeping materials away from it — and casually mentioned the existence of a lewd photo. It was not clear Thursday where the alleged nude pic came from or who had taken it. The company’s lawyer, Eric Dubelier, made the striking allegations while criticizing Mueller’s tight hold on information in the sprawling Russia probe. “Could the manner in which he collected a ...

From the beginning, the pushback against the dossier centered around one allegation. It claimed that Trump Organization lawyer Michael Cohen travelled to Prague in August to meet secretly with representatives of Russian intelligence. “The agenda,” Steele’s source alleged, “comprised questions on how deniable cash payments were to be made to hackers who had worked in Europe under Kremlin direction against the CLINTON campaign and various contingencies for covering up these operations and Moscow’s secret liaison with the TRUMP team more generally.” Cohen, Trump, and their mouthpieces all insisted Cohen had never visited Prague in his entire life.

BUENA, New Jersey (WPVI) -- The New Jersey Division on Civil Rights is now investigating after a high school wrestler was forced to cut his hair before a match. The incident has sparked questions about why the teen was called out for his hair. Many say the only reason why there was a call to cut the hair was because of the color of the wrestler's skin. Buena Regional High School wrestler Andrew Johnson, a junior, had to have his hair cut or forfeit the match. In video taken of the incident, you can see his locks getting chopped off by a trainer. He would then go on to win his match. The order to cut the locks came from referee Alan Maloney. Back in 2016 Maloney reportedly called ...

The letter came back into the news earlier this month, when its owner or owners auctioned it off again, this time at Christie’s in New York, and someone paid $2.9 million for it, a pretty good return on investment, and apparently a record in the Einstein-letters market. The former top seller was a copy of a letter to Franklin Roosevelt from 1939, warning ...

A traditional Danish song has sparked controversy recently. A female teacher of foreign origin at the Danish Business School was offended by a line in the song (the first line) being sung at a school gathering. The title of the old song is “The Danish Song is a Young Blonde Girl” – a classic, beautiful and very Danish song about the beauty and soul of Denmark and the Danes. The University promptly apologised and said they wouldn’t sing the song again and thanked the teacher for her vigilance on behalf of PC culture. However, the good thing about all this is that it upset people on both sides of the political spectrum. The majority of the Danes were outraged that she, who ...
