House Overwhelmingly Supports Bill Subjecting Teen Sexters to 15 Years in Federal Prison

Teens who text each other explicit images could be subject to 15 years in federal prison under a new bill that just passed the House of Representatives. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas), ranking member of the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime, has called the measure "deadly and counterproductive." "While the bill is well intended, it is overbroad in scope and will punish the very people it indicates it is designed to protect: our children," Lee said during a House floor debate over the bill. The bill would also raise "new constitutional concerns" and "exacerbate overwhelming concerns with the unfair and unjust mandatory minimum sentencing that ...

Mayor says he wants to fix the problem by creating other types of licenses.Out in the suburbs, cutting grass in the summertime is one of those classic starter jobs, an opportunity for teenagers to get out of the house, make a little money, and gain a little independence. Everyone's got a lawn, no one wants to mow it, and, hey, all these kids don't have anything to do while they're out of school for a few months. Alainna Parris, of Gardendale, Ala., was engaged in that bit of Americana this spring, offering to cut her neighbors' lawns for $20, $30, or $40. She was, that is, until someone working for another lawn service threatened to report her to city officials for cutting ...
Liberals Are Shocked To Find We’re Starting To Hate Them Right Back

I know it’s theoretically wrong for a Republican candidate to smack around an annoying liberal journalist, but that still doesn’t mean that I care. Our ability to care is a finite resource, and, in the vast scheme of things, millions of us have chosen to devote exactly none of it toward caring enough to engage in fussy self-flagellation because of what happened to Slappy La Brokenshades. Sorry, not sorry. And that’s not a good thing, not by any measure, but it is a real thing. Liberals have chosen to coarsen our culture. Their validation and encouragement of raw hate, their flouting of laws (Hi leakers! Hi Hillary!) and their utter refusal to accept democratic outcomes they ...

Protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline became an international news story last year. Progressives around the country rallied to the cause and held marches around the country. Over a million dollars was raised on social media to support the main protest camp and thousand of people traveled to remote Cannonball, North Dakota to become part of the effort to block the final mile of the nearly 1,200-mile long pipeline. Protesters battled police on land and in the water and over several months hundreds, mostly from out of state, were arrested. One woman faces 10 years in jail for (allegedly) firing a gun toward police officers. The Obama administration came to the protesters’ ...

Members of the press despaired Thursday at President Donald Trump's announcement that he would pull the United States out of the Paris Agreement, a major accord aimed at curbing climate change. Politicos and media pundits wasted no time weighing in with over-the-top hyperbole worthy of a street corner end times preacher. "[T]his is the day that the United States resigned as the leader of the free world," said noted plagiarist and CNN host Fareed Zakaria. Serial fabricator and MSNBC host Brian Williams described the announcement as "dark," adding that the more you looked at the president's address, the more it was like "four or five dark speeches."

On Friday, veteran Polish-American geo-strategist and statesman Zbigniew Brzezinski passed away at the age of 89. Ukrainian political commentator Rostislav Ishchenko explains why in spite of his lifelong efforts promoting and developing deeply anti-Soviet, and later anti-Russian geopolitical strategies, the old cold warrior was worthy of respect. In a piece on Brzezinski's passing for RIA Novosti, Ishchenko wrote that this his life-long animosity for the Soviet Union and Russia aside, the geopolitical grandmaster was undoubtedly a talented man. "The plans he created for political operations were just as original, unique and deadly to the enemy as Suvorov's plan for the ...

President Trump woke up incensed Tuesday morning, apparently because after he finally got through lecturing European leaders about how they had to take more responsibility for themselves, Germany’s chancellor had the audacity to suggest that European countries should take more responsibility for themselves. “The times when we could rely on others have passed us by a little bit,” was Angela Merkel’s takeaway from her most recent meeting with Trump. She said European powers “needed to take our fate into our own hands,” which prompted Trump to fire off an angry tweet assailing the trade gap with Germany and vowing to make the country spend more on defense. ...
Poll: 43% Want Trump Impeachment, Mostly Without Caring if He Did Anything Illegal

A POLITICO/Morning Consult poll released Wednesday shows increasing support for impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump, but most pro-impeachment respondents also do not appear to think Trump has committed “high crimes and misdemeanors.” Forty-three percent of respondents supported impeachment, while the plurality, 45 percent, said that impeachment was not necessary. However, the most frequent reason given by those supporting impeachment, at 54 percent, is that President Trump “has proven he is unfit to serve and should be removed from office, regardless of whether he committed an impeachable offense or not.” Only 43 percent actually believe he has ...

About time. Finally, after years of dangerous dawdling the United States has actually begun arming Kurdish soldiers fighting ISIS in Syria. Weapons supplies had been stockpiled nearby in anticipation of President Trump’s go-ahead, which came Monday. The armament distributions, which the commander-in-chief approved despite fierce opposition from NATO ally Turkey, will enable the tough Kurdish fighters to participate more aggressively in the imminent assault on the de facto ISIS capital of Raqqa. The Obama administration talked of arming the Kurds, who also led the anti-ISIS fighting in northern Iraq, but wilted in the face of resistance from the Baghdad central government and Turkey. ...

Cleveland, OH — In November of 2014, Officer Timothy Loehmann gunned down a 12-year-old boy for playing with a toy gun in a park. More than two years would pass, during which this cop would fail to be indicted for the murder of Tamir, before any semblance of accountability would occur. On Tuesday, officials announced that Loehmann has finally been fired from department — but not for killing a boy with a toy gun — for “providing false information” on his application to be a cop. Timothy Loehmann’s termination is “effective immediately,” Cleveland Police Chief Calvin Williams said at press conference Tuesday as he announced the end of a years-long ...

President Trump has made his decision to withdraw from the Paris climate accord, according to two sources with direct knowledge of the decision. Details on how the withdrawal will be executed are being worked out by a small team including EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt. They're deciding on whether to initiate a full, formal withdrawal — which could take 3 years — or exit the underlying United Nations climate change treaty, which would be faster but more extreme. Why this matters: Pulling out of Paris is the biggest thing Trump could do to unravel Obama's climate legacy. It sends a combative signal to the rest of the world that America doesn't prioritize climate change ...

As part of the drive to drive President Trump from the White House, some “never-Trumpers” are rehabilitating George W. Bush as a relative “moderate” and thus whitewashing his war crimes, notes Lawrence Davidson. By Lawrence Davidson There is an ongoing reality that is destroying hundreds of thousands of lives in the Middle East. And though most Americans are ignorant of the fact, and many of those who should be in the know would deny it, the suffering flows directly from decisions taken by Washington over the last 27 years.

Exclusive: In his Mideast trip to Saudi Arabia and Israel, President Trump sought some political safe harbor by tacking toward neocon orthodoxy and jettisoning his campaign promises of a more rational strategy, writes Daniel Lazare. By Daniel Lazare With astounding precision, Donald Trump zeroed in on the worst possible Middle East policy option in his recent trip to Saudi Arabia and made it his own. He rebuffed the efforts of Iran’s newly elected moderate government to open up communications with the West and instead deepened America’s alliances with decrepit autocratic regimes across the Persian Gulf.

Four years after the Philadelphia District Attorney seized her house without ever charging her with a crime, a 72-year-old grandmother has prevailed at the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, where justices strengthened protections for property owners against civil asset forfeiture. In a unanimous opinion issued last Thursday, the Philadelphia Supreme Court tightened the rules for seizing property, ruling that, although police and prosecutors have the authority to take property used in illegal activities, there must be clear evidence that the property owner knew of and agreed to the crimes. Under civil asset forfeiture laws, police can seize property suspected of being connected to a crime, even if ...
