My latest article is up on LRC. The TSA’s antics have been all over the mainstream news. In fact, the local (Detroit) news on FOX at 10pm last night spent 20 minutes covering the TSA sexual assault issue. I am really hoping for a big clusterfuck at the airports this weekend. On the other hand, [...]

The latest backlash against the TSA’s new groping procedures is finally reaching a level of furor that is in proportion to the atrocious crimes we have been subjected to since the government’s favorite excuse for totalitarianism: 9/11. I haven’t flown much at all in the last few years because I figured if I did, sooner [...]

Ron Paul on the House floor.

Anti-abortionists, “survivalists,” Christian identity types, and other assorted “dangerous types” who are anti-government. Lemme see, survivalists – meaning people who are self-sustaining, resourceful as hell, live off their own land, don’t bother anyone, and take care of themselves as well as people in their community. They’re among the type of people that “the government needs [...]

Mike Adams, in a recent column, had with some funny comments on the media obsession with underwear bombs. “The first photo, to the left, shows the slightly charred and singed underpants with the bomb packet still in place.” I don’t know what you think, but if you did an underwear search of all the passengers [...]

Reason’s Robert Poole spilled his noodles again. He wants the federal government to “get serious” about aviation security. He wants to see travelers undergo more intrusive measures – it’s a small price to pay to be safe! Not only that, he wants regular Joes to undergo an FBI approval and obtain a government-issued ID card [...]

I do not jest – this is real “breaking news” at this hour. The Wall Street Journal is reporting that on an international flight bound for Detroit, a man with a ‘firecracker thing’ on his leg tried to “blow up the plane.” The man, who has not been publicly identified by officials, told investigators that [...]

What’s wrong with this picture? Once the areas are prepared for training, Soldiers will be flown to Troy (Tennessee) via helicopters from Fort Campbell and dropped onto multiple locations within the city, such as they would in a real-world, combat scenario. Once the helicopters land, Soldiers from 2-327 will exit the aircraft and conduct the [...]

Ex-Homeland Security Czar Tom Ridge has admitted, in his new book, to government manipulation of the “security threat level.” This news has me in shock! I wrote about that here and here. Former Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge says pressure from fellow Cabinet members to raise the nation’s terror alert level just before the 2004 presidential [...]

Oh no, say it isn’t so! The Department of Homeland Insecurity’s color-coded terrorism alert system might be scrapped because our Terror Alert Czars fear that it has become meaningless to the public. That can’t be! Before you think that this is a move toward less propaganda and more government proficiency, read how this might happen, [...]
