PATAGONIA, Arizona (PNN) - February 23, 2019 - You have probably seen one of the countless videos showing terrorist pig thug cops threaten to arrest people for practicing their First Amendment rights to film in public. However, this story is unlike any we have ever seen, as the person flexing her rights is a 12-year-old girl who runs her own news company out of Arizona.

SOUTH HILL, Virginia (PNN) - February 22, 2019 - Corporal C.B. Fleming may not run around the city wearing a cape and mask, but the neighborhood children still call him Batman.

February 21, 2019 - The bad guys wear black hats.

We’re programmed to see things in black or white, right or wrong, good or evil. From what we are shown in movies and books from an early age, there is a protagonist and an antagonist.

Clever writers make it a little more complex, with the Boo Radleys and Snapes who are thought to be villains but turn out to be heroes. But generally, the characters fit largely into extremes: good guys or bad guys with little overlap: Harry Potter versus Voldemort.

WASHINGTON (PNN) - February 23, 2019 - The Framers of the Constitution feared exactly what has come to pass: a government that no longer represents the interests of the citizenry. They did their best in a fractious debate to stipulate safeguards, but it's clear that many of the Framers understood that no document could completely safeguard the Republic against a leadership that sought to undermine the Republic at every turn for personal gain.

PARIS, France (PNN) - February 23, 2019 - Thousands of yellow vest protesters took to the streets across France on Saturday for a 15th straight weekend of demonstrations.

WASHINGTON (PNN) - February 20, 2019 - Despite the anything-goes quality of Amerikan culture, one thing remains verboten to say publicly: the Fascist Police States of Amerika Constitution has failed. The reason why this painfully obvious fact cannot be discussed publicly is that it gives the lie to the legitimacy of the entire status quo.

PARIS, France (PNN) - February 18, 2019 - France gathered for the 15th week of Gilets Jaunes protests, with the injury toll of the worst civil unrest in decades now resembling that of a small war. Yet despite pleas from victims, President Emmanuel Macron is tightening the screws.

February 13, 2019 - Don’t give up on America, fight for her return to a land of liberty.

“There’s absolutely no evidence to support the statement that [America is] the greatest country in the world. We’re 7th in literacy, 27th in math, 22nd in science, 49th in life expectancy, 178th in infant mortality, 3rd in median household income, number 4 in labor force, and number 4 in exports. We lead the world in only three categories: number of incarcerated citizens per capita, number of adults who believe angels are real, and defense spending, where we spend more than the next 26 countries combined, 25 of whom are allies.

“[America] sure used to be [the greatest country in the world]. We stood up for what was right. We fought for moral reason. We passed laws, struck down laws, for moral reason. We waged wars on poverty, not on poor people. We sacrificed, we cared about our neighbors, we put our money where our mouths were and we never beat our chest. We built great, big things, made ungodly technological advances, explored the universe, cured diseases, and we cultivated the world’s greatest artists and the world’s greatest economy. We reached for the stars, acted like men. We aspired to intelligence, we didn’t belittle it. It didn’t make us feel inferior. We didn’t identify ourselves by who we voted for in the last election and we didn’t scare so easy. We were able to be all these things and do all these things because we were informed… by great men, men who were revered. First step in solving any problem is recognizing there is one. America is not the greatest country in the world anymore.” - Aaron Sorkin, The Newsroom (Episode 1)

NASHVILLE, Tennessee (PNN) - February 13, 2019 - Bills introduced in the Tennessee legislature would define gold and silver specie as legal tender and eliminate sales taxes levied on them. Passage of these bills would pave the way for Tennessee residents to use gold and silver in everyday transactions, a foundational step for the people to undermine the Federal Reserve’s monopoly on money.

BUDAPEST, Hungary (PNN) - February 11, 2019 - Having children is hardly a walk in the park. Oftentimes it feels as if the only incentive in the incessant additional child caring workload is the occasional smile, cuddle, or unexpected kiss. Well, not in Hungary. Outspoken anti-immigration Prime Minister Viktor Orban is determined to raise the birth rate by waiving taxes completely for families with four or more children.
