It will never be lifted.

After George Washington, I think Grover Cleveland was the next best POTUS.

How Restraint Made Cleveland One Of Our Greatest Presidents

Cleveland once explained his remarkable life journey from a humble background to the presidency this way: “The Constitution is so simple and so strong that all a man has to do is to obey it and do his best, and he gets along.”

TUCKER CARLSON: A free society requires comedians | Fox News

Josh Denny is a comedian. You may have heard of him. He used to work for the Food Network. He's also pro-life, personally, and willing to say so out loud.

Earlier this month, Denny was preparing to host a comedy show in Rutherford, New Jersey. That's about a half hour outside of New York, but just minutes after the show was announced, Antifa, a violent, radical group, decided to shut it down.

Hundreds of Antifa-affiliated Twitter accounts started bombarding the venue called the Williams Center. They also went after the chief of police of Rutherford, a man called John Russo and they threatened violence. Now, at that point, a chief of police who wanted to defend the Constitution, his solemn duty, would have pushed back and affirmed the sacred right of free expression of every American, but that's not what Chief Russo did. Instead, he caved to the demands of the mob.

Report: Canadian Doctor Says College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario Suggests Unvaccinated Patients are Mentally Ill and Should be Put on Psychiatric Medication (VIDEO)

During an interview at ‘Let Freedom Reign Tour,’ Physician and Cancer Researcher Dr. William Makis claimed that the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario sent out a note to doctors implying that their unvaccinated patients may be suffering from a mental illness and should be prescribed psychiatric medicine.

“So this has come out recently out of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario. The college sent out a letter or a memo to all the doctors in Ontario suggesting to them now, so far, they’re not mandating it, they’re just suggesting it, that any of their unvaccinated patients, that they should consider that they have a mental problem and that they should be put on psychiatric medication. So far, it’s just a suggestion,” Dr. Makis told Lynn Tyler Thompson.

Women express thankfulness for their abortions - TheBlaze

"I am grateful to have accessed my abortions in Texas while it was still legal in the state, and that my multiple abortion experiences now guide my work," Nikiya Natale wrote in the piece. "But I am thankful for both of my abortions. I am thankful that I didn't want to be a parent then, so I didn’t have to be a parent then. The blessing to plan a pregnancy and have a child when I wanted to have a child is something I have immense gratitude for. I really am thankful for it, particularly in this political climate and moment."

IRS warns taxpayers of new $600 threshold for reporting third-party payments | Just The News

The IRS this week warned taxpayers about its new $600 reporting threshold for third-party payments and the need to fill out a 1099-K form should taxpayers exceed that limit.

In 2021, Congress dropped the reporting threshold from 200 transactions worth a total $20,000 down to just one transaction over $600 as part of the American Rescue Plan, CNBC reported.

That threshold will likely have implications for regular users of Venmo, Paypal, or other payment apps.

The Joint Committee on Taxation estimates that the provision will raise $8.4 billion over ten years, the outlet noted.

Companies file 1099-Ks on a yearly basis to report third-party payments and send copies to both the taxpayers and the IRS. Accordingly, many individuals will likely receive a 1099-K by accident, over a non-taxable personal transaction.

Should that occur, the IRS advises taxpayers to contact the company to fix the error and, should they fail to do so, file a correct tax return and provide a written explanation to the agency.

Death by Derivatives - The New American

The entire financial economy may be being imperiled by an exotic form of financial instrument called a derivatives contract. There may be over two quadrillion dollars’ worth of this debt, sucking cash out of the productive economy… which is crippling supply chains.

Dominion Energy reportedly cutting off electricity to homes that refused ‘smart’ meters - Augusta Free Press

“Dominion has crossed a line,” Jenny DeMarco, Communications Director of Virginians for Safe Technology, said in a press release. “When families taking reasonable steps to protect themselves and their children have their power cut-off in the middle of November, local police and sheriff’s departments are escorting the corporation doing so, and the government and regulatory agencies stand idly by, that’s a pretty strong signal that our system is broken.”

Cambridge dean Michael Banner claims Jesus was transgender - TheBlaze

A University of Cambridge dean claimed that Jesus Christ could have been transgender.

The inflammatory comments were made by Dr. Michael Banner, who is the dean of Trinity College – a constituent college of the University of Cambridge.

Banner declared that it was a "legitimate" assertation that Jesus could have been transgender. The incendiary theory was made during Evensong at Trinity College chapel on Nov. 20.

Joshua Heath, a junior research fellow, displayed three paintings of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Heath pointed to Jean Malouel’s 1400 artwork Pietà (seen below) as proof that Jesus was transgender because blood from the chest stab wound from the Spear of Destiny flowed down to his groin.

Irish Government to Criminalize Hate Speech, Effectively Silencing Those who Hold Different Opinions- Penalty is up to 5 Years Imprisonment

“We are all horrified when we hear of homophobic, racist, and other hateful incidents in our country. While these repulsive acts of violence and abuse against innocent people have been extensively reported on, we know that some people go about their lives constantly in fear of abuse simply because of who they are,” she said

“Although it is a small minority of individuals carrying out these reprehensible acts and spouting this abuse, there is a clear desire from the public that these individuals need to be dealt with in the appropriate way.

“This Bill provides separately for hate crime and for hate speech, but on the basis of the same protected characteristics.

“All provisions throughout the Bill have been carefully developed to ensure it is victim-centered and effective in securing convictions where serious crimes are committed, and the legislation follows extensive public consultation and research.”

Study finds handgun owners carrying daily in US doubles in 4 years as self protection concerns soar | Just The News

In 2015, about 3 million U.S. adults reported carrying a handgun daily and by 2019, that number soared to roughly 6 million, according to a study published in December's edition of the American Journal of Public Health.

The number of Americans who said they carried handguns within the last month nearly doubled from 9 million in 2015 to 16 million in 2019, the study states.

The study does not include post-pandemic data. However, 7.5 million American adults became new gun owners from January 2019 to April 2021, according to a study published in February by the Annals of Internal Medicine. While the new firearm owners were mostly purchasing handguns, the study did not state whether they carried the weapons.

If Senators Value Freedom, They Must Amend Anti-Marriage Bill

On Nov. 8, parents all over the nation were voting out school board members who were either too evil or too gullible to protect children against the left’s perverse and pervasive sexualization. A week later, 12 Republican senators voted for legislation that would unleash the power of the federal government against them. Some of the senators — Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah, Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, and Sen. Susan Collins of Maine — were the usual suspects. Others blindsided their constituents, who wrongly believed that they would vote on the side of sanity.

The government is telling them that they will not be allowed to farm their land all in promotion of the fiction called climate change. I have a small piece of land that I intend to farm for my own food (not selling) and I worry that they will come and take it from me anyway.

Netherlands to close up to 3,000 farms to comply with EU rules

The Netherlands is attempting to cut down its nitrogen pollution and will push ahead with compulsory purchases if not enough farms take up the offer voluntarily.

Farmers will be offered a deal “well over” the worth of the farm, according to the government plan that is targeting the closure of 2,000 to 3,000 farms or other major polluting businesses.

Earlier leaked versions of the plan put the figure at 120 per cent of the farm’s value but that figure has not yet been confirmed by ministers.

“There is no better offer coming,” Christianne van der Wal, nitrogen minister, told MPs on Friday. She said compulsory purchases would be made with “pain in the heart”, if necessary.

Rich people hate, loathe, despise, rage common people owning land. I'm not talking about your house in a subdivision, although they would like to eventually own that too.

They want to control all means of production, and all natural resources. Then we are all serfs.

They will use the climate crisis to move land from commoners to the Technogarch Tyrants.

Ever wonder why Bill Gates is so worried about methane??? Cattle farming families own huge Tracts of land, especially in the west...including mountains, deserts, river and creek frontages. And the minerals, trees and water rights that come with it. Common people can't be allowed to own such things.
