Millions have lost their lives. And yet, you are not free. Could it be worse? Maybe. But today, you are a criminal if your toilet is too large, if you get the wrong type of light bulb, if you grow the wrong plant, if you prefer to not be scanned or felt up at an…
From the “you’re glad you’re not in my line of work” files: Sometimes when you send out a press release to 500-700 national reporters and alternative media contacts, you get no responses. Sometimes, you get a handful. And sometimes you get a lot of them. And sometimes, you get a phone call on a Friday…

A May 16th Food and Drug Administration news release reported that U.S. Marshals had seized more than $11,185,000 worth of unapproved drugs. They did this at the request of the FDA because the medications are unapproved and misbranded drugs under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. The FDA complaint for forfeiture in paragraph 3…
A Los Angeles TV news reporter said a California bill to prohibit state cooperation with unconstitutional and illegal spying “could be huge.” Known as the 4th Amendment Protection Act, SB828 passed the California Senate 29-0. “It’s a bill that basically tells the federal government, ‘If you are going to spy on American cell phones without…
