When envisioning a totalitarian regime, most Americans imagine concentration camps, soldiers roaming the streets demanding “papers” and people disappearing in the dead of night. Totalitarianism American-style is more subtle. It has had to be, because the ancestors of today’s Americans believed in freedom and were willing to fight and die to preserve it. That may no longer be the case: The elitist media in our country has led us astray by omission.
At ICE News, we refuse to be alarmist. We believe in the three separate branches of our federal government with their checks-and-balances designed to protect us – the people. We can only hope and pray that a new administration in the Oval Office after the November elections will repeal this attack on our freedoms of assembly and peaceful protest. If not, than even God may not be able to help America.
On March 9, 2012, Barack Obama signed bill H.R. 347 (also known as the Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011) into law. HR 347 is a modification from Senate bill S. 1794, which restricted people from entering or blocking public areas that have been closed off by Secret Service while a person under their protection is passing through. The law also included major public events, such as the Inauguration and Presidential campaigns. Read more…
Dear Fellow Americans,
It is time to “wake up” for your constitutional rights are being stripped on a daily basis. Most recently we have seen the Defense Authorization Act pass through Congress where you can be labeled a terrorist and held without due process of law.
On March 16, 2012 President Obama signed a new Executive Order which expands upon a prior order issued in 1950 for Disaster Preparedness, and gives the office of the President complete control over all the resources in the United States in times of war or emergency. The National Defense Resources Preparedness order gives the Executive Branch the power to control and allocate energy, production, transportation, food, and even water resources by decree under the auspices of national defense and national security.
As you will read in the following article now there are efforts to pass a bill to deny travel to Americans who owe the IRS without due process of law! I can only assume that just like healthcare the elite representing us in Washington who owe the IRS millions if not billions of dollars will be exempt from this legislation.
It is time to draw a line in the sand and “Stand up America” against the tyranny that is leading to the moral and economic collapse of our nation. We ask to to register at our site and join in our efforts.

It is not fair to Americans who do not know about these things. I believe it is the responsibility to teach and preach these of these matters from the pulpits across America, before it is too late. America is sliding into Socialism and evil as I am writing this. But yet our churches are silent. They do not preach about from where our Declaration of Independence and its dovetail document of laws on our Federal and State governments come from. That these documents come from and have been ordained and established by the “governing authorities” (See Preamble to The Constitution) established by God. Us! We The People. And, that as the “governing authorities” we individually have a responsibility to our Lord, our people and the Republic that We, through our farmer Militias with pitchforks, had our first World Super Power government delivered into our hands, twice, (1781 and 1812) by His divine providence.
I encourage all of you to approach your pastors and ask them to get involved and stand against the constitutionally contemptuous government rebellion, lawlessness and evil clearly before us “governing authorities”. How long before our U.S. Government starts killing us on our American streets, for the “Serious Crisis that should never be let go to waste”, of hyperinflation caused by constitutional superciliousness similar to that when the currency of the German Weimar Republic and Russia collapsed leading to the murder of tens of millions of their own citizens, up to 12,000 per day in the U.S.S.R., according to Yuri Maltsev. I believe there is a call from God for another American Great Awakening. I believe our pastors need to read the verbatim teachings of this period and our people need to be enlightened with the information we haven’t been taught for almost ten decades. We have forgotten our roots and from where individual Rights and Freedom were birthed. From God and the pulpits of the Great Awakening. Read more…
House Republicans seek to affirm Constitutional rights for American detainees
By Bill Gertz
The Washington Free Beacon
House Republicans are set to introduce legislation next week aimed at clarifying recent laws by affirming that all U.S. detainees maintain due process rights amid concerns over the erosion of individual freedoms.
The divisive issue of detainee legislation nearly derailed passage of the 2012 Defense Authorization Act, according to lawmakers involved in the debate.
The new legislation, known as the Right to Habeas Corpus Act, has bipartisan support and will seek to affirm due process rights in the 2001 law authorizing the use of force in the war on terrorism, as well as more recent detainee provisions contained in last year’s defense authorization act, according to the bill’s sponsors.
The main sponsors are Reps. Scott Rigell (R., Va.) and Jeff Landry (R., La.) along with a growing list of at least seven other Republicans and one Democrat.
“There is a tremendous amount of unrest among the American people as to the intrusiveness that the federal government is applying on their lives and their liberties,” Landry told the Free Beacon. “And we have a duty in Congress to ensure that the protections that the Constitution affords are not in any way diminished.” Read more…

President Obama traveled to Florida yesterday (April 10) to distract the nation from its real problems by laying out his case for the Buffett Rule, a plan to drastically raise taxes on successful Americans and small businesses. The core of his argument is that the rich aren’t paying their fair share. It makes for great populist rhetoric, especially when families are hurting and angry under today’s high unemployment, but the result is terrible policy. Worse, it’s a distraction from the big issues facing the nation, like the deficit, the economy, jobs, gas prices, health care, and on and on, none of which are addressed by the President’s proposals, and none of which he wants to talk about.
Will the President’s tax hike at least tackle the country’s fiscal problems? No, it won’t.
According to a recent analysis by the congressional Joint Committee on Taxation, the Buffett Rule would raise a mere $47 billion over ten years. Meanwhile, President Obama’s budget calls for adding $6.7 trillion to the national debt. That means that the Buffett Rule will only cover one half of one percent of the President’s new spending. Soaking the rich cannot get deficits down, only spending reductions can do that. Read more…

At a time when many Americans can barely afford Burger King and a movie, Obama boasts of spending a billion dollars on his re-election campaign. Questioned at a recent appearance about the spiraling fuel costs, Obama said, “Get used to it” – and with an insouciant grin and chortle, he told another person at the event, who complained about the effect high fuel prices were having on his family, to “get a more fuel-efficient car.”
The Obamas behave as if they were sharecroppers living in a trailer and hit the Powerball, but instead of getting new tires for their trailer and a new pickup truck, they moved to Washington. And instead of making possum pie, with goats and chickens in the front yard, they’re spending and living large at taxpayer expense – opulent vacations, gala balls, resplendent dinners and exclusive command performances at the White House, grand date nights, golf, basketball, more golf, exclusive resorts and still more golf.
Expensive, ill-fitting and ill-chosen wigs and fashions hardly befit the first lady of the United States. The Obamas have behaved in every way but presidential – which is why it’s so offensive when we hear Obama say, in order “to restore fiscal responsibility, we all need to share in the sacrifice – but we don’t have to sacrifice the America we believe in.”
The American people have been sacrificing; it is he and his family who are behaving as if they’ve never had two nickels to rub together – and now, having hit the mother lode, they’re going to spend away their feelings of inadequacy at the taxpayers’ expense. Read more…

Last week the Environmental Protection Agency issued new standards for carbon dioxide requiring that fewer than 1,000 pounds of carbon dioxide be released per megawatt-hour of electricity. Plants running on natural gas already average below 850 pounds. Coal-fired plants, which emit on average 1,768 pounds per megawatt-hour, cannot achieve this without prohibitively expensive carbon capture and storage, or CCS.
The mandate came in response to a 2007 Supreme Court case instructing the EPA to determine whether carbon dioxide threatens public health and thus merits regulation under the Clean Air Act. The agency dutifully did, bowing to environmental zealots in late 2009 with its “endangerment finding.”
Coal presently provides almost half our electricity. Given the enormous advantages of affordable energy, it is odd how adamantly certain parties disparage fossil fuels. Few of modern life’s comforts and conveniences would remain feasible without combustible energy. Cheap energy extends and improves life. Forcing families to purchase not just electricity, but costly CCS contraptions too, propels prices higher. Read more…

Six years ago I wrote a book called “Uncle Sam’s Plantation.” I wrote the book to tell my own story of what I saw living inside the welfare state and my own transformation out of it.
I said in that book that indeed there are two Americas. A poor America on socialism and a wealthy America on capitalism.
I talked about government programs like Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Job Opportunities and Basic Skills Training (JOBS), Emergency Assistance to Needy Families with Children.
A vast sea of perhaps well intentioned government programs, all initially set into motion in the 1960’s, that were going to lift the nation’s poor out of poverty.
A benevolent Uncle Sam welcomed mostly poor black Americans onto the government plantation. Those who accepted the invitation switched mindsets from “How do I take care of myself?” to “What do I have to do to stay on the plantation?”
Instead of solving economic problems, government welfare socialism created monstrous moral and spiritual problems. The kind of problems that are inevitable when individuals turn responsibility for their lives over to others. Read more…

WASH–After supporting the terrorist sponsoring Muslim Brotherhood in overthrowing several Middle Eastern governments for “democracy’s” sake, Fox and Politico report that White House officials are meeting with Muslim Brotherhood representatives. It is a well known fact that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s top aide Huma Abedin has close ties to the MB, and that several appointees to Homeland Security and the Pentagon are associated in some way with the terrorist organization. All the disclaimers have been made that the Muslim Brotherhood is no longer an advocate of violence, but of democracy. Lies all. And there are deceivers and dangerous traitors amongst America’s top echelon of leaders.
The MB creed is as follows: “Allah is our objective. The Prophet is our leader. The Qur’an is our law. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.” In the Texas Holy Land Foundation trial, the MB was recognized as an unindicted co-conspirator in laundering money through charity groups to terrorists. Documents submitted to the courts contained a detailed plan for the MB to take over North America through several methods, one called “settlement.” It said, “The process of settlement is a “Civilization-Jihadist Process” with all the word means…a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and “sabotaging” its miserable house…” Read more…

Political Correctness has a double standard when it comes to teaching about religion in public schools. Drop Christianity down the Memory Hole, but give extensive and mostly favorable coverage to Islam.
Even the mainstream media have provided extensive coverage of the steady stream of court cases and ACLU threatening letters aimed at removing all signs of Judeo-Christianity from public schools. Not only must prayer be prohibited, a cross and the Ten Commandments removed or covered up, a valedictorian banned from thanking God for His help, a football coach prohibited from bowing his head during a student-led pre-game prayer, singing of Christmas carols banned, and school calendars required to recognize Winter Holiday instead of Christmas, but there is also the complete omission of the history of the Founding Fathers’ public recognition of Christianity.
An organization called ACT for America conducted an analysis of 38 textbooks used in the 6th- through 12th-grades in public schools, and found that since the 1990s, discussions of Islam are taking up more and more pages, while the space devoted to Judaism and Christianity has simultaneously decreased. In 2011, NAEP (National Assessment of Educational Progress) reported that American 12th graders scored lower in History than in any other subject, even lower than in science, math and economics.
Most of these students are too young to remember 9/11, so current textbook descriptions about 9/11 is all they will learn. In one textbook example of pro-Islamic revisionism, 9/11 is portrayed as “a horrible act of terrorism, or violence to further a cause,” without any mention that the attackers were Muslims or that the “cause” was Islamic jihad.
