Illegal Dreamer' Arrested for 103 Counts of Anti-Trump Vandalism
Illegal Dreamer' Arrested for 103 Counts of Anti-Trump Vandalism:
"Naturally, this criminal represents the “Dreamers.” These are the solid citizens Leftists say dream of life in America, living in peace and harmony.
Oh, and voting Democrat.
Our poster child for Leftist Dreamers received taxpayer funded welfare in the form of a college indoctrination from the University of Connecticut. Interestingly, this college-miseducated Dream finds himself in trouble."

Future Icebreakers May Have Cruise Missiles, Zukunft Says - Defensetech
Future Icebreakers May Have Cruise Missiles, Zukunft Says - Defensetech:
"As Russia builds up its massive icebreaker fleet with cutting-edge technology to assert dominance in the Arctic, the United States may need to keep its options open with its own icebreaker buildup plan.
In a hearing before the House Appropriations subcommittee on Homeland Security, Coast Guard Commandant Adm. Paul Zukunft said current plans call for the service to build three medium and three heavy icebreakers, with accelerated delivery of the first heavy icebreaker in 2023.
Currently, the United States has just one heavy icebreaker, the 40-year-old and poorly aging Polar Star, and one medium icebreaker, the Healy, used primarily for research expeditions.
But, Zukunft indicated, changing threats may call for more icebreakers, and possibly a more robust weapons loadout.
“We need to look differently … at what an icebreaker does,” he said.
“We need to reserve space, weight and power if we need to strap a cruise missile package on it.”
Russia currently has 40 icebreaking ships and is in the midst of a capability ramp-up. Two new icebreaking corvettes, equipped to carry cruise missiles, will join the Russian fleet by 2020, Zukunft said..."

Quackery infiltrates The BMJ – Science-Based Medicine
Quackery infiltrates The BMJ – Science-Based Medicine:
"We here have long lamented the creeping infiltration of quackery into medical academia in which modalities once considered quackery, such as acupuncture, reiki, naturopathy, homeopathy, and various other dubious treatments, have found their way into what should be bastions of science-based medicine (SBM).
Over the years, we have noted the proliferation of “integrative medicine” programs and residencies in medical academia, and professional conferences, the credulous teaching of CAM modalities as part of the normal medical school curriculum. (Georgetown University even had a program where acupuncture meridians and points were taught during gross anatomy.)
...Once hard-nosed, science-based medical journals have, unfortunately, started publishing what can only be described as credulous endorsements of quackery.
We’ve documented many examples of this shameful phenomena over the years, but I’m about to document a whopper of an example now in, of all places,
The BMJ, which has now published two “state of the art reviews” on “integrative medicine” that can only be described as fully buying into the false paradigm that quackery needs to be “integrated” with medicine.
The evolving language of “integrative medicine”—or whatever they’re calling it this week..."

After Manchester: it’s time for anger | Terrorism | spiked
"After the terror, the platitudes.
And the hashtags.
And the candlelit vigils.
And they always have the same message: ‘Be unified. Feel love. Don’t give in to hate.’
The banalities roll off the national tongue.
Vapidity abounds.
A shallow fetishisation of ‘togetherness’ takes the place of any articulation of what we should be together for – and against.
And so it has been after the barbarism in Manchester.
In response to the deaths of more than 20 people at an Ariana Grande gig, in response to the massacre of children enjoying pop music, people effectively say: ‘All you need is love.’
The disparity between these horrors and our response to them, between what happened and what we say, is vast.
This has to change..."

News - Claims of Climate-Caused Human Health Problems Questioned | Heartland Institute
"Junk science" is behind many of the claims linking current levels of air pollution and climate change to human health problems.
...In his presentation, titled “EPA’s Human Experiments With Particulate Matter: Proof of Government Science Corruption,” Steve Milloy, publisher of JunkScience.com, strongly criticized the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for carrying out experiments on human subjects, exposing them to a substance EPA says can kill “within hours.”
For more than two decades, EPA has pushed for strict regulation of PM 2.5 particulate matter, or soot, Milloy said.
EPA has gone to great lengths to emphasize particulate matter poses a threat to human health, even though it has failed to document any cases of people being harmed by PM 2.5.
Milloy noted EPA has written there is “no safe level of exposure to PM 2.5” and people exposed to it can “die within hours,” with those at greatest risk being people over the age of 70 and children.
If this is true, Milloy asked, why does EPA expose human test subjects to PM 2.5 levels far higher than they will ever experience in the environment?
EPA assures volunteers participating in the experiments they have nothing to fear, yet it tells the public PM 2.5 is highly dangerous, Milloy said..."

The officer has two warrant cards – one in their male name, Callum, and the other in their female name, Abi.

"...What Trump has actually done, or what these investigation into “WhateverGate” is supposed to discover, is completely unknown.
The premise that the American intelligence community has proof of Trump’s collusion with Russia but sat on it during the entire campaign,
Obama’s last months in office, and during the first months of a supposed foreign agent’s rise to power, is absurd on its face.
Comey stated under oath he had not been pressured to end any investigation by President Trump, only to now change his mind now that he’s been fired.
But the bottom line: it doesn’t matter what Trump did or didn’t do.
Impeachment, at its core, is not a legal proceeding, but a political one.
It is our System’s equivalent to a Vote of No Confidence in Parliament.
If the Democrats take power, they will impeach Trump simply because our current Commander-in-Chief poses an existential threat to the System simply by existing..."

House IT Workers Fear Members Are Being Blackmailed | The Daily Caller
"Congressional technology aides are baffled that data-theft allegations against four former House IT workers — who were banned from the congressional network — have largely been ignored, and they fear the integrity of sensitive high-level information.
Imran Awan and three relatives were colleagues until police banned them from computer networks at the House of Representatives after suspicion the brothers accessed congressional computers without permission.
Five Capitol Hill technology aides told The Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group that members of Congress have displayed an inexplicable and intense loyalty towards the suspects who police say victimized them.
The baffled aides wonder if the suspects are blackmailing representatives based on the contents of their emails and files, to which they had full access.
“I don’t know what they have, but they have something on someone.
It’s been months at this point” with no arrests, said Pat Sowers, who has managed IT for several House offices for 12 years.

Evidence? We Don’t Need No Stinkin’ Evidence, Imply Tourism Officials [Michigan Capitol Confidential]
Evidence? We Don’t Need No Stinkin’ Evidence, Imply Tourism Officials [Michigan Capitol Confidential]:
"National Travel and Tourism Week starts May 7.
It’s an ideal time to remind taxpayers, voters and lawmakers that the state of Michigan spends $34 million each year on a program to promote tourism.
Unfortunately, the program, called Pure Michigan, is demonstrably ineffective and wasteful.
Both the state government and the private trade association for the tourism industry make poorly supported claims on its behalf.
A recent statement by tourism lobbyist Deanna Richeson about the Mackinac Center’s research is particularly shameful.
Deanna Richeson of the Michigan Lodging and Tourism Association emailed out a “Grassroots Alert!” last March asking recipients to “Tell Your Legislator to Protect Pure Michigan!”
It claimed that “Pure Michigan funding is at risk” and that risk was “[f]ueled by misinformation from a study by a far right think tank that has already been discredited.”
I am the co-author of a recent study on state tourism promotion — the only recent, critical analysis of such I’m aware of in the country — so I was curious about Richeson’s claim that our work had been discredited.
Starting on April 18, I used email, fax, the postal service and telephone to reach out to her to ask for supporting evidence of her assertion.
I have not received a response..."
