A radical anti-police activist was charged Monday with the attempted murder of Louisville, Ky., mayoral candidate Craig Greenberg. The activist, Quintez Brown, was apprehended shortly after he allegedly entered Greenberg’s campaign headquarters and fired multiple shots with a handgun.

Brown, 21, pleaded not guilty to attempted murder and four counts of wanton endangerment. No one was injured during the attack, but a bullet reportedly grazed the back of Greenberg’s sweater. The mayoral candidate, a Democrat, said the suspect walked into his office where he and four other staffers were meeting Monday morning. “When we greeted him, he pulled out a gun, aimed directly at me, and began shooting,” Greenberg told reporters. “The individual closest to the door managed to bravely get the door closed,…

Nicaragua Government to Criminalize Political Opposition

Nicaragua’s Ortega government puts the political opposition on trial

Excerpt:

Ortega and his wife, Vice President Rosario Murillo, have dismantled the country’s democracy with startling speed. After crushing nationwide demonstrators in 2018, their government arrested protest leaders, shut down news organizations and stripped the legal status of civil society groups. Last year, with elections looming, authorities intensified the crackdown, jailing around four dozen opposition politicians, journalists and business leaders.

Nicaragua has become the most dramatic example of the crumbling of democracy in Central America, a trend condemned by the Biden administration that is contributing to surging migration.

The trials are “an attack on all types of dissidence,” said Carolina Jiménez, president of the Washington Office on Latin America, an advocacy group. She said they lacked even the minimum standards of due process. “We know these sentences aren’t pronounced by an independent justice system, but by the presidential couple.”

Nicaraguan authorities have accused the jailed activists of working with foreign powers to undermine the government. “These are the same people who promoted and directed terrorist actions in the failed coup in 2018,” the attorney general’s office said in a statement last month, referring to the anti-government protests…..l.

Excerpt:

President Joe Biden and congressional Democrats are reportedly considering a federal gas tax holiday to relieve Americans feeling inflationary pain at the pump.

A bill offered by Sens. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) and Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.) would suspend the 18.4 cents per gallon gas tax through Jan. 1, 2023. The Democrats say this temporary measure is needed to provide economic relief to families nationwide.

“This bill will lower gas prices by suspending the federal gas tax through the end of the year to help Arizona families struggling with high costs for everything from gas to groceries,” Kelly said in a statement last week after introducing the bill.

“This legislation is about making sure that we get Granite Staters relief at the gas pump. People are feeling a real pinch on everyday goods, and we must do more to help address rising costs, particularly the price of gas,” Hassan added. “We need to continue to think creatively about how we can find new ways to bring down costs, and…

Minnesota Senate Bill Would Make School Curriculums Transparent

Paul Collier February 15, 2022

The Minnesota Senate Republicans are hoping to pass a bill that would make public school curricula more transparent to parents, and also equip parents to be able to challenge the schools when they find issue with what the schools are teaching. In many school districts, especially over the last ten years, what was once openly available, even online, is now behind firewalls. Parents must file a FOIA request to see their own school’s curriculum. What do the schools have to hide from us?

The push for more transparency and accountability is only going to increase across this country as more and more parents are coming to realize just how militant our own government schools have been in attempting to create revolutionaries and activists cut in the party’s image (the DNC) rather than equip people to build lives of their own choosing within an American republican reality, a Constitutional republic that affords its citizens the primary source of government power, even guaranteeing their right to bear arms should the state fail to recognize who the real government is (not the experts, not the elected officials, not the bureaucrats, the people, who have rights, even when they are in the minority).

Senate GOP bills would change how Minnesota teachers disclose curriculum to parents

Excerpt:

Minnesota Senate Republicans on Monday unveiled a series of bills they say would empower parents to review and object to school curriculum.

Four GOP lawmakers, including two running for governor, said they want to enshrine in state law the principle that a parent has a right to direct their child’s education.

“Parents know what’s best for their kids in their education,” state Sen. Paul Gazelka, R-East Gull Lake, said during a news conference. The former majority leader is seeking his party’s endorsement for governor.

“Let’s make a syllabus available in every classroom in Minnesota,” said state Sen. Michelle Benson, R-Ham Lake, who is also running for governor.

Details about the proposals were scarce. Under current state law, school districts have to provide instructional materials for parents’ review upon request, as well as “alternative instruction” if parents object to the content.

States Move to Overcome Biden’s Ivermectin Blocking

Parker Davis February 15, 2022

All of the members of the Biden apparatus appear to be making every effort they can to prevent the spreading of the use of Ivermectin as an effective treatment for people who contract the Covid-19 virus. The FDA has yet to approve a perfectly safe drug for use as a therapeutic treatment for the covid virus while it gives emergency approval to experimental MRNA vaccines.

The states, however, are finding ways to create opportunities for doctors to be able to treat patients with Ivermectin, as more and more data comes out that supports the effectiveness of the drug as a treatment. It’s not a silver bullet miracle cure. It doesn’t work for everyone, but it does work for most people, and more and more doctors have been sharing their data to support these claims.

Now it appears some states are making it easier for doctors to utilize the drug, which had been widely and safely used in humans to treat parasites before being smeared as a mere “horse dewormer.” Oklahoma Attorney General John O’Connor says his office does not plan to discipline doctors for prescribing certain medications, including ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, to treat covid.

While approved ivermectin to treat animals and people for some parasites, lice and skin issues, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration hasn’t approved it for COVID-19. O’Connor said in a news release that his office finds no legal basis for a state medical licensure board to discipline a licensed physician for prescribing a drug for the off-label purpose of treating a patient with COVID-19.

The Oklahoma attorney general said he stands behind doctors who believe ivermectin is in their patients’ best interest.

DNC Climate Change Fixes Devastate the Poor with Spiked Energy Bills

Paul Collier February 15, 2022

Many Americans across this country are experiencing dramatic spikes in their electric heating bills this winter, and you can thank Joe Biden and the DNC for that. Their efforts to shut down major American natural gas projects like the Keystone Pipeline are the most significant factor for your spike in your heating bills this winter.

As usual, DNC policy is created by isolated, sheltered experts in sterile rooms, who never have to live the consequence of the high moral choices they suppose they are making for the rest of us.

The spike in natural gas prices because of Biden’s almost seemingly intentional crippling of American energy independence capacity comes at a time when all of the trillions of dollars this administration has printed is now producing 40-year-high levels of inflation. 80 million people can’t be wrong, can they?

My January electric bill is up about 40% from last year, which itself was about 20% higher than it was in 2020. Before you ask: No, I didn’t invest in any new Christmas lights; nor did I suddenly start mining bitcoin. In fact, my Con Edison bill conveniently points out I used slightly less power this year.

It turns out I am just one of millions of middle-class schlubs in New York whose wallets are lighter this winter thanks to the Democratic Party’s catastrophic climate policy — and my humble 40% increase is nowhere near some of the triple-digit horror stories out there.

If you listen to Con Ed, the spike in your bill is a direct consequence of the rising cost of acquiring natural gas, due to its global supply and demand. The past few months, the commodity price has hovered between $4.00 and $6.00/MMBtu, which are averages we haven’t seen since the 2008 financial crisis.

It would be criminal not to mention that President Joe Biden scrapping…

Texas AG Goes After Zuckerberg Over Meta’s Facial Recognition Data

Parker Davis February 15, 2022

The Texas Attorney General is going after Facebook in the courts over its handling of user privacy data connected to a facial scan. The AG, Ken Paxton, is alleging that Facebook collected the user data without permission. He filed the lawsuit this past Monday, February 15th. This lawsuit is one of a myriad of ways that Facebook and other international social media giants are facing from multiple US and other national governments as well. This is a battle between the new power and the old, as the old still needs the new power, but they need to clip their wings. However, the new power is far from vanquished, though I’d reckon its days were still numbered.

The Texas attorney general on Monday filed a privacy lawsuit against Meta Platforms, the parent company of Facebook, for allegedly collecting facial recognition data without the clear permission of users.

Ken Paxton, the attorney general, said the social network violated a state consumer protection law by repeatedly capturing and commercializing biometric data in photos and videos for more than a decade without the informed consent of users. He said the company also shared the data with third parties and failed to destroy the information in a reasonable time.

“Facebook will no longer take advantage of people and their children with the intent to turn a profit at the expense of one’s safety and well-being,” Mr. Paxton said in a statement. “This is yet another example of Big Tech’s deceitful business practices, and it must stop. I will continue to fight for Texans’ privacy and security.”

Russia’s North Korean construction workers are being treated like virtual slaves by their own government handlers, and the Russians are continuing to benefit from this coerced labor. Around 20,000 North Koreans work as virtual slaves so the regime can get the cash from the Russians who are willing to pay for this slave labor.

An estimated 20,000 North Koreans have been dispatched by their government to Russia to earn foreign cash for the regime. The government keeps the lion’s share of the wages they earn while abroad.

After several North Koreans disappeared while working apart from their handlers in mid-January, authorities gave the order that side jobs are no longer allowed.

French research minister Frédérique Vidal echoed the position of EU negotiators position and said Britain cannot take part in Horizon Europe until it resolves its Brexit disputes with the bloc. This is despite Britain’s participation in the EU’s key research and innovation project being a feature of the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement. Ms Vidal said: “The association of a third country requires mutual trust between the parties and, of course, we expect the UK to demonstrate its willingness to cooperate on other ongoing discussions.”

Her comments come after Mr Macron snatched up the rotating presidency of the EU Council until June.

But the French President is yet to admit Britain back into the programme after it was banned.

Antoine Petit, chair and chief executive of the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) has torn apart the decision.

He said: “It’s a punishment for all of us, it’s a punishment for Europe.
