Court Blocks EPA’s Water Rule

The EPA is pushing a new rule called the Waters of the United States which would expand the definition of a navigable water to include almost any water feature on a property including ditches that are dry the vast majority of the year. If this rule goes into effect the federal government has in effect nationalized/taken control of all water in the United State (and in many cases the land that borders the water).

These waters are usually under the jurisdiction of the states. No surprise that various groupings of states challenged the EPA in court. The first of the articles on this subject discusses the only lawsuit that successfully put a stop to the implementation of the rule, at least until further studies are conducted. To read more about which group of states was successful, click on this link.

The second article discusses whether the states that were unsuccessful in their challenge of the Waters of the United States rule, will be protected from, or obligated to abide by, the rule. To learn more click on this link.

Clinton, 1995, immigration, State of the Union Speech

You would not believe Democrat President Bill Clinton’s 1995 position on immigration, nor the enthusiastic support of his party for same, if you did not watch this short video. Do so by clicking on this link.

Want to See Which Businesses are in Bed with the Feds???

There are two links provided below to the World Business Council for Sustainable Development’s (WBCSD) website. The first one will take you to the site itself, where if you spend only a few minutes roaming just through the “history” section found on the “about” page, you will see that this organization is not even trying to hide its associations to the United Nations and their Agenda 21 plans.

The second link will take you to where you can see which companies belong to this freedom sucking organization.  After looking at this list you may want, where you can, to rethink where you spend your money .

Remember, in the brave new world of Agenda 21, big business-along with big government, and NGO’s-will have a very large say on the quality of your life and that of your children-if we allow this scam to continue unchecked.  link   link

U.S. Cities Want to Join U.N. Migration Talks That Trump Boycotted

23 years after President Bill Clinton’s 1995 State of the Union speech on immigration President Donald Trump, by withdrawing the U.S. from the United Nations Global Compact on Migration, is attempting to fulfill the 1995 wishes of then President Bill Clinton.

Sadly the Bill Clinton era Democrat politician no longer exists. Instead today’s Democrat politician is much more likely to support Socialist and Communistic policy; anti-small government, anti-religion, anti-capitalism, anti-personal freedom, anti-sovereignty, etc. So it should be no surprise the politicians in the major cities around America are trying to reattach our immigration policies to those of the U.N. by meeting directly with the United Nations themselves.

It takes a lot of arrogance on the part of the big city politicians to demand a seat at the U.N. table to continue an ever increasing flow of immigrants into America, who will then require even more financial support from the tax payers while undermining America’s sovereignty.

The Dark Side of Conservation Easements-Continuation of Martha Boneta’s Saga

Anyone who is familiar with Agenda 21 knows that both the Socialist and the extreme environmentalists are working to destroy private property rights. Without property we are no more than slaves. One of the strategies used to destroy property rights is conservation easements.

Keeping it simple, conservation easements are created when a land trust pays a land owner to promise to not develop IN PERPITUITY their property (in most cases just building a new barn would be not be allowed under the terms of the conservation easement). In return the land owner and his heirs are then able to stay on this land in perpetuity (which is an awful long time to restrict land to only one possible use).

You may have followed the story of Martha Boneta, who bought in 2006 acreage in Virginia that was part of a conservation easement. If so you are aware the land trust, Piedmont Environmental Council, from whom the conservation easement had been purchased, fined Ms. Boneta $5,000 dollars per day after the zoning administrator saw a picture posted on Boneta’s Facebook page of a birthday celebration given on her farm. This heavy handed treatment triggered a long contracted legal battle by Ms. Boneta to maintain control of her property which ultimately ended in Boneta’s Law. Boneta’s Law has shown a light on the abuses of conservation easements and gained a degree of property rights protection for small farmers in Virginia.

What you likely do not know is that Ms. Boneta is again back in court. To learn more about the new battle, again against the land trust, Piedmont Environmental Council, click on this link.

You also likely do not know that Ms. Boneta’s story has been made into a film that was shown at the Anthem Film Festival at Freedom Fest in Las Vegas on July 11, 2015 where it won two awards. If you would like to see a trailer for this fine video, click on this link.

You may also wish to read about a 2013 law suit filed against a horse farm, which was being operated under a conservation easement, and how just a few small changes on the farm triggered this two year court battle. If so, click on this link.

Moral of the story: beware of conservation easements and land trusts. While they may fix a short term cash flow problem, they will create restrictions for current and future land owners. More important conservation easements decrease future economic activity on the property affecting the nation’s bottom line. In addition, as more land is removed from private ownership, the cost of land and taxes on non-conservation easement land will increase. Eventually only the elite will be able to afford land, forcing the rest of us into the city, where we can be more easily controlled by an over-reaching government.

EPA’s Scott Pruitt drains the swamp like no one else in Washington

Remember that while the1992 treaty Agenda for the 21st Century was never ratified by the Senate, its principles of economic, environmental, and social justice were embedded into every federal agency through the efforts of the Clinton administration. The result was rogue agencies where the bureaucrats in these agencies became unanswerable to the People. These agencies instead were mandated to do whatever was necessary to transform America into a socialist country un-tethered from its founding values and principles. This required the agencies to ignore the facts and to find “experts” who, after being bribed with federal grants, would reach consensus to whatever statements advanced social, economic, and/or environmental justice goals.

Imagine the fear felt by those in the EPA when Scott Pruitt, with a clear goal to reform the EPA by requiring it to use facts and the scientific method instead of consensus, became head of the EPA. To read more about the EPA’s painful journey towards reform, click on this link.

House property rights caucus to target abuse of landowners (finally)

I do not know whether to call this good news or not. Representative Tom Reed (R-NY) has established the U.S. House Private Property Rights Caucus. It is great to know that there is finally an awareness in Washington D.C. that property rights are being abused across America, and that a coalition is being created to address it, but what a shame this is so very necessary to prevent America from becoming a society where private property is reserved only for the truly wealthy and well connected. To learn more about the caucus effort, please click on this link.

Also, please consider calling Representative Tom Reed at 202-225-3161 to thank him for his efforts.

NASA Has More Evidence Volcanic Activity Is Heating Up Antarctica’s Ice Sheet

Global Warming is the single most important strategy for globalists on both sides of the aisle. If Global Warming is universally accepted it will maximize the chances of establishing a global carbon credit scheme, which would put trillions of dollars in the hands of those same global elitists. To that end the media, giant corporations, the massive education complex, etc. barrage the citizenry all day, every day, with images, discussions, commercials, etc. to advance the supposed fact that man is responsible for the heating of the earth. It is hard for the average citizen to know how to push back against this onslaught of unsubstantiated claims.

Now you have an easy way to sow the seeds of doubt in the minds of the sheep who mindlessly accept that man is responsible for Global Warming.

Everyone knows that volcanoes are big and hot. What if there were volcanoes under Antarctica releasing plumes of heat upwards to the underside of Antarctica? In that case it is not man-made heat above Antarctica, but heat from below melting the ice. This provides a super easy explanation to give to those who have drunk the man-is-destroying-our planet-cool aid.

How California Went Dry (aka Demonizing Farmers)

Everyone knows the old adage, “divide and conquer”.  I am also sure that you are aware that currently our society is being manipulated in such a way as to create massive divisions; blacks against whites, gays against straights, women against men, endangered species against man, and on and on. This article provides information explaining how the drought in California has been made worse by bad policies. That is likely not news to you.

What I ask you to do, as you read the article and listen to the video, is notice how the farmers are being asked to grow their crops with less and less water, and how the farmers are being criticized for using more than “their share” of the water. This in spite of the fact that the food the farmers grow provides much of the food the citizens of California eat. If the farmer is only allowed water as if he were just a “normal household”, there may be a bit more water per household available, but those same folks in those normal households will have no food to eat.

Scarcity of food will be the very tangible outcome of pitting farmer against non-farmer and is a recipe for disaster. However, if the goals of the Progressives are to destroy property rights, force country folks into town, and create a hungry, desperate, divided population; this ought to get the job done.

Please read this article for yourself to gather more details on the cause of California’s drought and to determine for yourself if a new division involving farmers is being forwarded by clicking on this link.
