{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ House Democrats on Wednesday passed legislation to expand background checks for firearm purchases, citing an epidemic of gun violence... Eight Republicans voted with Democrats to pass the bill in a 240-190 vote, but the smattering of GOP support was enough for the party to tout a bipartisan victory as they advanced the first significant gun control measure in decades. "This bill is proudly bipartisan because gun violence prevention should not be a Democratic or Republican issue," Speaker Nancy Pulosi, D-Calif., said prior to the vote. "Gun violence doesn’t discriminate by party or politics. It will require all our courage to defeat it."Just before the vote, Republicans managed to sneak in language requiring that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement be notified when an illegal immigrant tries to buy a gun. Republicans cheered the late addition to the bill, which was passed with the help of 26 Democrats, but many were surprised as Democrats blocked it unanimously when the bill was being considered in committee. The final vote was several years in the making for Democrats, who have been sidelined in the minority for the last several years. In 2016, they commandeered the House floor from the Republican majority and held a “sit in” to demand the GOP take up a bill that would ban gun purchases by people on the federal terror watch list...

{dailysignal.com} ~ Democratic Colorado Gov. Jared Polis’s signature is all that remains to include Colorado among the ranks of states prepared to abandon the Electoral College system in favor of nationwide popular voting for the next presidential election... Colorado would bring the number of states who have joined the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact to 12, plus the District of Columbia. The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact represents a coalition of states that have agreed to pool their presidential electoral votes for the majority candidate, regardless of individual state outcomes. States have the constitutional right to manage the awarding of electoral votes in national elections, with many states opting for winner-take-all. If states with 270 electoral votes—or the number needed to elect a president—agree to award their votes to the majority-vote holder, it could effectively convert the presidential election to popular vote. Colorado makes the total electoral votes represented by National Popular Vote Interstate Compact states 181. To reach the required 270, they need a dozen or so more states to pass legislation. So far, no red states have embraced the movement. Former Attorney General scumbaqg-Eric Holder weighed in on the issue Tuesday on Twitter, supporting the reform measure and linking to a story from The Washington Post about Colorado’s pending inclusion...  https://www.dailysignal.com/2019/02/27/colorado-set-to-become-12th-state-moving-to-kill-electoral-college/?utm_source=TDS_Email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=CapitolBell&mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiTWpNMk9UWTNNakJqTXpaaiIsInQiOiJwY0syK0VmZFh0NzlMbElHZ3hkSkgrMStPeUNBVktwTkZYbzNvbE9jS1hNRmJmUnZhUzFlMFRjTldFS1pUQm9TVDgxVEtSNTZCelhuaElldEpJRFhZd2lqbXduYjBGUXhlMmRwV1wvc08zamFBS0paelV5QlNYRE9hYWNcL2ttRGNhIn0%3D

{cnsnews.com} ~ Last week, the little birdies in Twitter's legal department notified me that one of my tweets from 2015 is "in violation of Pakistan law."... It seems like ancient history, but Islamic supremacists never forget — or forgive. My innocuous tweet featured a compilation image of the 12 Muhammad cartoons published by Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten in 2005. It also linked to my Jan. 8, 2015, syndicated column on the Charlie Hebdo jihad massacre in Paris. There's no hate, violence, profanity or pornography, just harmless drawings and peacefully expressed opinions about the Western media's futile attempts to appease the unappeasable enforcers of sharia law, which bans all insults of Islam. The Twitter notice assured me that the company "has not taken any action on the reported content at this time," yet advised me that I should "consult legal counsel about this matter" in response to complaints from unnamed "authorized entities." Don't worry, lawyer up? Gulp. I'm used to getting threats directly from bloodthirsty cartoon jihadists. In 2006, I spearheaded a "Mohammed cartoons blogburst" in support of the Danish cartoonists at Jyllands-Posten. After posting all 12 of the drawings to educate the public about the publication's brave stand against sharia-enforced self-censorship in the West, death and rape threats from radical Muslims around the world poured into my email inbox. Vengeful thugs based in Turkey and Germany called me a "whore" and "prostitute," vowing "We will kill you" unless I deleted the pictures from my server. My website was targeted by jihadist hackers who launched a week of denial-of-service attacks...

Dozens of ‘Green New Deal’ supporters 
arrested outside Mitch McConnell’s office

by conservativeinstitute.org:   Dozens of radical environmentalists were arrested outside of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) Capitol Hill office Monday afternoon. Around 100 protestors from the progressive “youth grassroots organization” Sunrise Movement... stormed the Russell Senate Office Building demanding that McConnell co-sponsor the extreme Green New Deal recently proposed by Democratic Party leaders. When the crowd refused to disperse, Capitol Police arrested 42 protestors and escorted them out of the building in handcuffs. Just before 11:00 a.m. local time, activists entered the Russell Building bearing signs that read, “Mitch, look us in the eyes,” and wearing t-shirts that said, “We have a right to good jobs and a livable future.” The Kentucky-based youth group presented a petition containing 100,000 signatures demanding that McConnell co-sponsor the Green New Deal, a controversial resolution promising sweeping environmental reforms to mitigate the impact of climate change.“I am here because people in my community don’t have jobs, are starving and turning to opiods [sic] and dying. Mitch McConnell refuses to do anything about,” said Lily Gardner, a 15-year-old high school student from Kentucky. However, jobs are coming back to Kentucky, and the steel and coal industries have been revitalized thanks to a Republican majority in the Senate and a conservative in the White House. Additionally, opioid overdoses declined by nearly 3 percent in 2017 due to a series of public health reforms  implemented by the Trump administration...

by Benjamin Martin:  According to The Washington Post earlier this month, “The Senate … passed the most sweeping conservation legislation in a decade, protecting millions of acres of land and hundreds of miles of wild rivers across the country and establishing four new national monuments honoring heroes including Civil War soldiers and a civil rights icon. The 662-page measure, which passed 92 to 8, represented an old-fashioned approach to deal making that has largely disappeared on Capitol Hill.” The House is preparing to vote on the legislation.

I’m always skeptical when I read the Post celebrate the announcement of some bipartisan scheme that ultimately increases federal power and costs taxpayers more. This land grab is a terrible idea. The federal government already controls  most of the western United States. This bill will further increase federal control over large areas.

In addition, the Wilderness designation locks land away from most of the public except those who by permit walk in on foot with extreme limitation and countless regulations. Rivers become locked away from any future hydro-electric development in a nation that needs power. More federal employees with more salaries and pensions will be required to “manage” these areas of expanded federal protection. This is more federal forceful protection of stuff rather than people.

I argued many times with National Park Service managers during my career with NPS, and they firmly believed their priority was to protect stuff over protecting the safety and lives of people. What I suggest is a return of most of the many millions of acres of land and hundreds of National Parks back to state control, with the federal government retaining only those exquisite jewels like Yellowstone and Grand Canyon.

Having spent decades as a land manager working from the West Coast to the East Coast, I can cite countless examples of breathtakingly horrible management by federal land managers spurred on by a host of aberrant agendas that are not in the best interests of Americans. We should oppose anything that expands the power of the all-consumptive federal beast.

How much is enough? When politicians seek a lasting legacy, they look in the mirror and imagine Teddy Roosevelt staring back at them, all at our expense. How about this: Secure our borders from a host of threats before any more land within our nation’s interior is essentially confiscated for federal use.  ~The Patriot Post

    This has been going on since the 60s and nothing has been done to teach them correctly. I would have to guess our kids will learn the hard way and realize what they did. Would it be to late to correct their ways.

  • yes teachers are now making sure kids learn to be the ones who defend the green new scheme.  instead of teaching the american history or the us constitution or about God or our rights they are making them socialists WE MUST TEACH OUR KIDS NOW
