We rarely worry about marijuana. So why is it still a Schedule I drug? On August 11th, the Drug Enforcement Administration announced its decision to keep marijuana classified as a Schedule I drug. The federal government has historically referred to this category as the “most dangerous” group of substances, including drugs like heroin and bath salts. As a resident physician specializing in mental health, I can't make much sense of this. Every day, I talk to patients about substance abuse. Whether evaluating patients in clinic, in the emergency department, or on inpatient units, my colleagues and I screen patients for substance use. It's a ...

The same people that are boisterous homophobes are more than likely ” A little gay ” themselves according to a recent study. As reported by Nicolas DiDomizino with Mic: Researchers at the University of Geneva tested 38 heterosexual male subjects by having them first rate their levels of “homonegativity” to determine how antigay each of them were. Then the men participated in a sneaky little series of photo experiments designed “to evaluate their impulsive approach tendencies toward homosexual stimuli.”The first experiment involved showing the (again: straight male) subjects a series of images of straight or gay couples in the center of a computer screen, and ...

Trump Used Campaign Donations to Buy $55,000 of His Own Book

FEC rules dictate the Republican nominee must forgo royalties on the book’s sales, or else the $55,000 purchase at Barnes & Noble was illegal. Donald Trump used his campaign funds to buy thousands of copies of his own book at retail cost, simultaneously diverting donor money back into his pockets while artificially boosting his sales figures. It’s a tactic that may be illegal, campaign finance experts say. On May 10, the Trump campaign paid Barnes & Noble $55,055, according to a filing with the Federal Election Commission. That amounts to more than 3,500 copies of the hardcover version of Crippled America: How to Make America Great Again, or just over 5,000 copies of the ...
New revelations show a nation for sale under Hillary Clinton

Democratic presidential nominee and former Secretary of State Hillary ClintonThe Democratic Party often warns us that mixing big money and politics will corrupt democracy. They must have nominated Hillary Clinton to prove it. The Clinton Foundation was ostensibly set up to solve the world’s most pressing problems. Though it’s done some fine work, its most fruitful program has been leveraging Clinton’s position in the State Department to enrich her family, friends and cronies. It’s against federal law for charities to act in the interests of private business or individuals. Yet the Clinton Foundation secured high-paying gigs for its namesakes and helped for-profit ...

Investigative Reporter Greg Ciola interviews Rev. Bob Celeste about his use of Apricot kernels to overcome stage IV colon cancer. Bob was given only one choice; take chemotherapy or go home and die. Thanks to Bob’s research in the 1990’s while working to become a Reverend, he discovered apricot kernels as a modality to deal with cancer. Poster Comment:For anyone to now say that Apricot Kernels, Apricots, prayer and saliva don't work on cancer is asinine. I am living proof it works.Only a clinton supporter could be dumb enough to dispute that fact that I am alive.

Massive price increases on EpiPens raise alarm Chris Woodyard and Mary Jo Layton, USA TODAY and Asbury Park (N.J.) Press 12:28 p.m. EDT August 23, 2016 Two U.S. senators are raising concerns about massive price increases on a drug used under emergency conditions for food allergy reactions to see if they are justified. Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, has written the manufacturer, Mylan, asking for the reasons behind the price boosts for EpiPen, an epinephine auto-injector used to treat allergy reactions that has seen its price rise from $57 in 2007 to about $500 today. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., wants the Federal Trade Commission to take a look. "I am concerned that the substantial ...

With a Congressionally appointed federal control board about to take over Puerto Rico’s finances, the U.S. territory just admitted that its massively spiked public pension plan owes another $43 billion. Designated by the United Nations as the “Oldest Colony in the World,” the U.S. territory defaulted on $70 billion in municipal bonds and $2 billion of interest on July 1. Unable to file for bankruptcy under federal Chapter 9 Municipal Bankruptcy Law, like the State of Arkansas did in 1933, Puerto Rico looked to the federal government for help. The Obama Administration teamed with a bipartisan majority in Congress to pass”The Puerto Rico Oversight, Management and Economic ...

More than half the people outside the government who met with Hillary Clinton while she was secretary of state gave money - either personally or through companies or groups - to the Clinton Foundation. It's an extraordinary proportion indicating her possible ethics challenges if elected president. At least 85 of 154 people from private interests who met or had phone conversations scheduled with Clinton while she led the State Department donated to her family charity or pledged commitments to its international programs, according to a review of State Department calendars released so far to The Associated Press. Combined, the 85 donors contributed as much as $156 million. At least 40 ...

August 23, 2016 Obama’s Biggest Mistake By Christopher Chantrill This week the conservative media is noticing that even the president’s cheering section at the New York Times is wising up to Obama’s mistakes in Syria, Libya, Iran, and more. But I think that the disaster of the president’s foreign policy is the least of his problems. I think the real mistake is the president’s ruthless attempt to push the liberal agenda to the max during the last eight years. I see why the president returned the bust of Churchill to the Brits. He just doesn’t believe: In victory or magnanimity. And now I have the founder of the Democratic Party, Thomas Jefferson, to ...

Sunni extremists are infiltrating the United States with the help of alien smugglers in South America and are crossing U.S. borders with ease, according to a U.S. South Command intelligence report. The Command’s J-2 intelligence directorate reported recently in internal channels that “special interest aliens” are working with a known alien smuggling network in Latin America to reach the United States. The smuggling network was not identified. Army Col. Lisa A.

Pat Buchanan: A Eulogy For John McLaughlin–Ave Atque Vale!

Issue one! To understand John McLaughlin, it was helpful to have been a 13-year-old entering an all-boys Jesuit school in the 1950s. For when John yelled “Wronnng” at me from his center chair of “The McLaughlin Group,” it hit with the same familiar finality I had heard, many times, from Jesuits at the front of the class at Gonzaga. In that era, John was himself a Jesuit teacher at Fairfield Prep, where the black cape he wore and his authoritarian aspect had earned him from his students the nickname—Father God. In 1970, Fr. John heard another calling, and, declaring himself a liberal Republican, challenged Sen. John Pastore in his home state of Rhode Island. An ...

The head of the Philippines police has said more than 1,900 people have been killed during a crackdown on illegal drugs in the past seven weeks. Ronald dela Rosa was speaking at a senate hearing into the sharp rise in deaths since Rodrigo Duterte became president. He said police operations had killed about 750 people, but the other deaths were still being investigated. Mr Duterte won the presidency with his hard-line policy to eradicate drugs. He has previously urged citizens to shoot and kill drug dealers who resisted arrest, and reiterated that the killings of drug suspects were lawful if the police acted in self-defence. He also threatened to "separate" from the UN after it ...

Cuomo wants the government to pay union workers higher wages

Gov. Cuomo told an AFL-CIO meeting Monday that he wants to “pay more for union jobs because the government shouldn’t pay a poverty wage.” The governor’s comments, as might be expected, drew thunderous applause from the union audience attending the labor organization’s convention at the Sheraton New York. Cuomo is looking at unprecedented state subsidies to re-start the 421-a program, which granted tax breaks to developers for building affordable housing. The program wasn’t renewed by the state legislature after Mayor de Blasio reached a deal last year with the Real Estate Board of New York to extend it — but without a provision requiring union-level ...

Private lives are exposed as WikiLeaks spills its secrets CAIRO (AP) -- WikiLeaks' global crusade to expose government secrets is causing collateral damage to the privacy of hundreds of innocent people, including survivors of sexual abuse, sick children and the mentally ill, The Associated Press has found. In the past year alone, the radical transparency group has published medical files belonging to scores of ordinary citizens while many hundreds more have had sensitive family, financial or identity records posted to the web. In two particularly egregious cases, WikiLeaks named teenage rape victims. In a third case, the site published the name of a Saudi citizen arrested for being ...
