    OWOSSO, Mich. —Armed members of the Michigan Home Guard stood outside Karl Manke's barber shop, ready to blockade the door if police arrived. They were determined to help Manke, 77, reopen his shop Monday, in defiance of state orders, and dozens joined them, wearing Trump sweatshirts and Trump cowboy hats and waving Trump flags. They gathered not because they desperately needed haircuts but to rail against Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s approach to fighting the coronavirus outbreak in Michigan, one of the nation’s worst hot spots. They were channeling President Trump’s support of such protests, but some also were taking aim...
  • Trump Lays Groundwork To Ban Mandatory Vaccinations Across U.S. (Older but hopefully still holds)

    President Trump has created a new division within the Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights, with the express purpose of banning mandatory vaccinations across the country, and ensuring citizens have a right to choose their own healthcare. With the establishment of the Conscience and Religious Freedom Division division on Thursday, Trump has laid the groundwork to dismantle each and every vaccine mandate across the country. Big Pharma’s chokehold on the nation’s health has been released. If you don’t think this new division at the Health and Human Services Office is a big deal, it’s time to think again....

    So in 1775 the rally cry was : "Give me liberty, or give me death!" We are now coming to the Presidential Election of 2020 and the rally cry should be: "Give me my FREEDOM or bury me in a MASK." It seems that we are loosing our freedoms and I'm sure we have become the laughing stock of the puppet masters. Now we have the HR 6666, which give "someone" the power to investigate WHO we contact and come into our homes for "other reasons also" I HAVE HAD ENOUGH! I'm Locked & Loaded and STANDING UP FOR MY...

    Crazed Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom on Thursday retaliated against the citizens of his state and closed all beaches in Orange County amid the Coronavirus panic. Newsom announced Thursday a “hard close” of all beaches in Orange County and called out Newport specifically after tens of thousands flocked to the OC shoreline amid a heatwave last weekend. Thousands gathered in front of the Huntington Pier on Friday to protest Newsom’s order. Huntington Beach, dubbed Surf City USA, is know for its surfing and counterculture. Surfers and other freedom lovers came out in droves on Friday to protest their liberal governor’s authoritarian...
  • Horowitz: Lockdowns are illegal, illogical, and immoral

    04/28/2020 8:35:23 PM PDT · by conservative98 · 17 replies
    Today, I offer the full legal and scientific case against universal lockdowns and how they are actually making things worse on all fronts. First, you must know your rights. Second, know the basic science and concrete data we have from months of observing the virus. Why do pro-lockdown politicians and the media hate our seniors? In fact, it is those people who are ensuring more vulnerable people die by preventing herd immunity among the healthy and by draining needed medical resources.

    American Thinker ^ | April 27, 2020 | J.B. Shurk
    This current balance of power in America is unsustainable and will not hold much longer. We just slinked past the 245th anniversary of the "shot heard round the world," and most Americans were too busy hunkering down and obeying government directives to remember how heavy the price for liberty always is. There is a rumbling right now below our feet, though, and these tremors may well split the earth around us if our elected leadership do not yield to common sense and shared American purpose. This moment in history is opening up before us two paths — one in which...

    Illinois (ECWd) – We are of the opinion the Memorandum we obtained today is a game-changer for Illinois and a clear shot across the bow of Governor Pritzker’s Executive Order. From day one we have questioned the overreach and legality of elements of the Executive Orders and now it appears all of our positions have been validated by the Chief Deputy Director of the Illinois Appellate Prosecutor’s Office, David J. Robinson in his memorandum to the Director of that office. We greatly appreciate that finally a legal analysis is provided with clear language, case law, and supporting footnotes to support...

    Ok, I get it. I'm at risk. If we open up the country I might die. You know, I'll miss my wife, my children, and my grandchildren. I'll miss my other family. They're called FReepers. BUT HELLS BELLS, I've had my time. I don't want the future ruined for my children and my grandchildren, as well as the families of multiple millions of my precious fellow citizens. So please, President Trump, and all Governors, open it back up as fast as you safely can. God Bless America and MAGA!!!!!

    Democratic leaders are making quite a name for themselves during the COVID-19 pandemic. Vote for one, and everyday Americans will find themselves disappointed. Especially when a crisis comes knocking. Eight years of former President Barack Obama (body by Esquire and mind by Baby Einstein), taught us that Ivy League educations and sounding smart mean nothing – if you lack common sense and logic. If Obama's years showed us anything, it is that power is always Democrats' end game. They will lie, cheat, and seek advantage during a crisis to get what they want. Never let a crisis go to waste!...

    A new survey from Jackson & Coker shows an overwhelming majority of doctors would prescribe hydroxychloroquine or another anti-malaria drug to a family member suffering from Wuhan coronavirus. "Sixty-five percent of physicians across the United States said they would prescribe the anti-malaria drugs chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine to treat or prevent COVID-19 in a family member," the survey, which questioned 1,271 doctors in 50 states, found. "Only 11 percent said they would not use the drug at all." In addition, a significant number of doctors said they would prescribe the drugs to those exposed to the virus as a preventative measure...

    The Washington Examiner ^ | 21 April 20 | Madison Dibble
    Almost three-quarters of adults living in the United States are afraid that the coronavirus will diminish their personal freedoms. According to a Hill-HarrisX poll released on Monday, 74% of respondents said they fear losing liberties as a result of the pandemic. The survey, which was taken from April 6 to 7, was conducted as governors around the nation began implementing aggressive social distancing policies. At that time, many governors had placed bans on gatherings of more than 10 people and barred residents from eating in restaurants, visiting movie theaters, and going to work for businesses deemed nonessential. The survey was...

    The United States of America was founded to free the inhabitants of the 13 original colonies from England and the tyranny of a distant king, George III. Thus we are loath to restrict the actions of other individuals unless we perceive a threat to the freedom of others in those actions. My question is as follows, "Is there a point at which a citizens ignorance of the principles of government would prohibit their voting in elections ?"

    Southern States Push to Reopen With Economic Pressure Rising (Reports). The GOP governors of three southern states have decided to ease coronavirus restrictions, permitting businesses to open.

By next week Monday, restaurants will be open for dining, and Georgians will also be allowed to go to the movies. Bars and night clubs will remain closed for the...
  • Barr: Some governors' action 'infringes on a fundamental right' during coronavirus

    Attorney General William Barr said Tuesday that some state governors’ efforts to fight the coronavirus “infringes on a fundamental right” of American residents. Barr said in an interview on “The Hugh Hewitt Show” that governments in the U.S. need to “do a better job” of ensuring coronavirus restrictions are “properly targeted” and do not unnecessarily infringe on constitutional rights. He added that currently, the country is facing “unprecedented burdens on civil liberties.” “When a governor acts, especially when a governor does something that intrudes upon or infringes on a fundamental right or a Constitutional right, they’re bounded by that,” the...
