It would appear Mayor Stephanie “space-to-destroy” Rawlings-Blake ended up with more human destruction than originally intended; or, perhaps not.

BALTIMORE SUN – Blood was shed in Baltimore at an unprecedented pace in 2015, with mostly young, black men shot to death in a near-daily crush of violence.

On a per-capita basis, the year was the deadliest ever in the city. The year’s tally of 344 homicides was second only to the record 353 in 1993, when Baltimore had about 100,000 more residents.

The killings were on pace with recent years in the early months of 2015 but skyrocketed after the unrest and rioting of late April. In five of the next eight months, killings topped 30 or 40 a month. (more…)

(NEW YORK) New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed an executive order Sunday requiring homeless people throughout the state to be removed from the streets and brought to shelters when the temperature is below freezing.

In his executive order Sunday, Gov. Cuomo directed state agencies to take “all necessary steps to identify individuals reasonably believed to be homeless and unwilling or unable to find the shelter necessary for safety and health in inclement winter weather, and move such individuals to the appropriate sheltered facilities.” (more…)

Many people will awaken today to the news of approximately 100 to 150 armed militia taking control of a closed Wildlife Park Headquarters, and not know the full back-story – so here it is:

The short summary is:  in an effort to draw attention to a ridiculous arrest of a father and son pair of Oregon Ranchers (“Dwight Lincoln Hammond, Jr., 73, and his son, Steven Dwight Hammond, 46,) who are scheduled to begin five year prison sentences (turning themselves in tomorrow January 4th 2016), three brothers from the Cliven Bundy family and approximately 100/150 (and growing) armed militia (former U.S. service members) have taken control of Malheur Wildlife Refuge Headquarters in the wildlife reserve.  They are prepared to stay there indefinitely.

Here’s the long version: including history, details, links, video(s) and explanations:

When New Hampshire voters consider the heroin epidemic they are facing, they know border security is much more than stopping illegal immigration.

TEXAS – One of Brownsville’s southmost property owners said he is fed up with all the drugs crossing on his land.  Rusty Monsees said he is seeing an increase in activity from the river. He’s also getting more phone calls about the activity.

Monsees has become the liaison between authorities and his neighbors.  “The amount of drugs that are coming through is phenomenal,” he said.

Monsees’s land is right on the river. The border fence is in his front yard. “They come over the fence; they climb over the fence,” he said.

Earlier this week, a Border Patrol chase on Monsees’s land ended with agents confiscating drugs and the driver escaping across the river.   Narcotics are common in this area and in the neighborhood up the road. (more…)

As we review the current media report for President Obama’s intentions, regarding executive office restrictions on firearms, we must remember the second term distinction between “executive orders” and “executive action“.

♦ Executive orders are those dictatorial fiats from the White House that contain an origin, at least as regarded by the Office of Legal Counsel (OLC), founded in law.

♦ “Executive actions” are the term-two preferences of President Obama and constitute dictatorial fiats that are not constitutionally based, not legal, not supported by the OLC, and will not eventually hold up under legal challenge.  The key word is “eventually”.

The Obama “executive actions” are political decisions intentionally constructed and designed to advance an ideology while creating legal conflict.  They successfully advance ‘change’ until they are overruled by state and federal courts.

An example of an “executive action” was the Deferred Action for Parents of Americans, or DAPA, amnesty program Obama rolled out in November of 2014.   DAPA was an Executive Action, not an Executive Order.

Executive Actions open barn doors.  They are never designed/intended to pass legal challenge.  They create mostly irreversible consequences.

To the best of our knowledge the entire MSM and professional punditry have yet to recognize the strategic and intentional use of executive action – and explain it to everyone. (more…)

Sweden is now openly admitting their efforts to open the doors to Muslim refugees has resulted resulted in complete chaos.  Street gangs, lawlessness, anarchy, massive horrific crime increases including widespread and frequent gang rapes.

Two stories.  The first shares the current disposition and decision to immediately stop the influx of the Islamic horde.  The second story shows how horrific the scope of recent crime “Rapes – Acquittals – Severed Heads“:

MALMO, Sweden — When the small, crumpled body of 3-year-old Alan Kurdi washed up on the Aegean coast Sept. 2, Europe’s humanitarian superpower sprang into action.

Sweden’s prime minister headlined gala fundraisers, Swedish celebrities starred in telethons, and a country that prides itself on doing the right thing seemed to rally as one to embrace refugees fleeing for their lives. (more…)

Most Americans are unaware how close the House of Representatives came to passing the Senate ‘Gang-of-Eight’ bill in 2014 which included amnesty for illegal aliens. The vote was only stopped by the last-minute primary defeat of Eric Cantor.

However, one of the benefits if the current presidential campaigns is the lifting of the veil for the hidden advocates…

(Via Breitbart – by Julia Hahn)  Congressman Trey Gowdy’s endorsement of Sen. Marco Rubio may shine an unwanted spotlight on the South Carolinian’s record of past radical statements on immigration and his aggressive support for donor class policies embraced by Sen. Rubio.

Gowdy’s extreme immigration declarations come in addition to his long-standing support for donor-class Republican lawmakers. For instance, in a closed-door GOP leadership election in November of 2014, Gowdy seconded John Boehner’s nomination as House Speaker. Similarly, Gowdy was the Congressman who nominated Paul Ryan for Speaker. According to Politico, Boehner “secretly urged Gowdy to run” for House Majority Leader.

In 2012 we called it the “Post-It Campaign” – a simple insurgent campaign designed to let American members of the political rebel alliance know they are not alone.

The most important aspect to any insurgent uprising is for those amid the ordinary population to know they are not alone, they are not isolated, there is more of us than them…  Morale is just as important as achievement.

[ California ] Nikki Worden and Dann of Corona were returning home from the movies when they said they couldn’t believe what they saw. So, they decided to get off the freeway and pass it again while recording it on video.  (link)

The UniParty, Democrats and Republicans in legislative agreement, was most recently evidenced within the construct of the 2015/2016 Omnibus spending and Tax Bill.

Frustrated fiscal conservatives once again gnashing teeth as the insufferable DC Politburo highlight their intentional disconnect from the electorate;  Pelosi -> Boehner -> Ryan? It matters not a lick of difference who holds the gavel when the bell is rung for chow-time at the taxpayer trough.

It’s as if the GOPe really don’t care how angered you get.  Why is that?…

…. Mark Levin isn’t talking about it. Sean Hannity isn’t talking about it. Rush Limbaugh and Laura Ingraham are not talking about it, yet it remains one of the biggest structural benefits to Team Jeb Bush in the 2016 primary presidential race:

Frustrated Conservatives Leaving The Republican Party

Independent political registration is the fastest growing base of electoral voters, and that plays nicely into the hands of the GOPe who are working diligently to avoid accountability for their progressive agenda. (more…)
