I’m the Queen peasants. The law doesn’t apply.

Comey Stewart Clinton — Way back in 2002 TV personality Martha Stewart was tipped off by her broker that things were looking ill for a stock in which she had invested and so she sold off her shares.

This is known as insider trading and is against the law albeit it is something that one suspects 99 percent of n0n-professional investors would do if in a similar situation.

Federal investigators investigated and when questioned about her deed Ms. Stewart lied to them. Or was convicted of lying to them anyway. The statute under which she was convicted is also a pretty easy one to break and is prone to abuse.

So Ms. Stewart is now a convicted felon and subject to all the lifetime penalties that status gives her.

What does Ms. Stewart’s decade-old problems have to do in today’s world?

The guy who led the prosecution against her was James Comey, who now directs the FBI.

Comey was recently on TV telling the world that former Secretary of State and presumptive Democrat presidential nominee Hillary Clinton can’t be prosecuted even though she was extremely careless in “handling very sensitive, highly classified information” because it was not “clearly intentional and willful mishandling of classified information.”

Here is what 18 U.S.C. § 793 says:

Whoever, being entrusted with or having lawful possession or control of any document, writing, code book, signal book, sketch, photograph, photographic negative, blueprint, plan, map, model, instrument, appliance, note, or information, relating to the national defense, (1) through gross negligence permits the same to be removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of his trust, or to be lost, stolen, abstracted, or destroyed, or (2) having knowledge that the same has been illegally removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of its trust, or lost, or stolen, abstracted, or destroyed, and fails to make prompt report of such loss, theft, abstraction, or destruction to his superior officer – Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both.

So Mr. Comey, you don’t think that would cover setting up a private email server — unnecessarily it should be noted —  and exchanging classified documents on it? How about using unsecured devices in adversarial nations?

When did you decide to become a nice guy and cut slack?

Suppose a famous TV cook did it?

241st Year Agenda

241st Year Agenda

By Don Adams

As our nation enters its 241st year, there are so many serious issues confronting us that it often seems overwhelming.241st Year Agenda

It appears there are three overarching problems currently threatening our Right to Life, Liberty, and pursuit of Happiness.

On the international front, no one can deny that the violence of Islamic Jihadism has been so pervasive over the past several decades, both in the US and abroad, as to warrant a most serious effort to defeat it.

Yet world leaders such as President Obama, Pope Benedict, and Angela Merkel focus far too much energy and resources on the supposed long term threat of “global warming” rather than the eminent danger of global terrorism. This colossal failure of leadership must radically change now or our way of life will be the next casualty.

We must declare war on Islamic Jihadists and determine to defeat them within this decade.

On the domestic front, we face pending economic and cultural decline due to excessive centralized government and a lack of individual responsibility.

Federal, state, and local governments, whose spending is largely out of control, continue to regulate and tax us into submission. As the arm of government attempts to reign supreme, it diminishes the importance of church, community and family in our personal lives. As a result, the economy remains stagnant and we the people grow restless.

The diminished church, the apathetic community, and the embattled family leave us vulnerable to negative cultural influences that peddle drug and alcohol abuse, sexual promiscuity, and other irresponsible behaviors.

Too many of our current elected officials and bureaucrats–in all levels of government–are attempting to control rather than to empower us to lead productive, happy lives.

But, alas, it is not too late to rise up, as our Founders did 240 years ago today, and fight to preserve our cherished freedoms and institutions.

As Brexit has shown, the pendulum is swinging against big, centralized government and in the direction of decentralized, limited government; individual empowerment; and personal responsibility.

If our nation can defeat ISIS and the onslaught of tyrannical government, we will have successfully brought the American Revolution into the 21st century.

Our Foundation hopes to be at the forefront of this ongoing, never-ending American Revolution–with all of you!

We pray God continues to bless you and our great nation.

Mr. Adams is on the board of the Independence Hall Foundation.

John Ashe, a diplomat from Antigua and Barbuda who served as president of the United Nations General Assembly from September 2013 to September 2014, died, June 22, while working out at his home in Dobbs Ferry, N.Y.

He was 61. It’s kind of an under-reported story considering his international prominence and his obvious concern for  physical fitness.

Well, officials say he was working out. What other possible explanation could there be, though, for having one’s larynx crushed by a barbell, which is how he died?

Ashe had a recent career setback when he was charged with crimes related to taking bribes from Chinese businessman Ng Lap Seng, who has long been active in American politics especially in Arkansas.

Ashe was scheduled to meet with prosecutors regarding his upcoming trial. Think he might have been willing to testify about this or that to avoid prison?

For those who don’t take seriously what the Fourth of July is about enlighten yourself.

It is unpleasant to be a serf. It is unpleasant to be a peasant. It is unpleasant to be a slave.

Granted slavery existed when the Declaration was signed but as someone famously noted it was basically gone four score and seven years later and its end came only because the foundation of our nation baldly stated that We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Understand that there are those who want to return us to serfdom where all economic decisions require permission from self-appointed elites, one’s speech most be constantly self-monitored least it offend them and one’s vote is meaningless.  

Fight these people. We are actually obliged to do so.

For those wishing to get technical slavery’s official demise in the U.S.A. didn’t happen until four score and nine years after the Delcaration.

Police are trained to touch taillights of cars they stop. It leaves the officer’s fingerprint so the car can be positively identified if the driver should kill the officer and escape.

Liquor Freedom For Pennsylvania Looms

Liquor Freedom For Pennsylvania Looms
That’s right, Pennsylvanians. You will no longer have to hide your head in shame here.

Liquor Freedom For Pennsylvania Looms — Soon Pennsylvanians won’t have to sneak through the back roads on the way home from Delaware to avoid traps by minions of the Liquor Control Board.

HB 1196, which  continues the reforms to the Keystone State’s booze laws, has overwhelmingly passed the state House and Senate is ready for Gov. Wolf’s expected signature.

The most significant section of the law decriminalizes buying liquor out of state. Our reading of the bill indicates that the  fines of $10 per bottle or can of beer and $25 per container of wine or liquor for bringing booze across the border remain in effect but the alcohol is returned to the buyer if he pays the appropriate taxes.

Further the bill states Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit any resident of this commonwealth not licensed under this act to purchase liquor outside of this commonwealth so long as the resident pays all state taxes on the liquor to the department of revenue and the liquor is not shipped into this commonwealth.

Take that for what you will.

 Wallace McKelvey has a good, comprehensive story about the law at PennLive.com.

Oh, and under the law mead is now defined and regulated. Tough break Beowulf.

What's the LD50 test? It was how toxicity was ranked until people came to believe that it was cruel to animals.
They wouldn’t have used this on dogs, right? Right??

What’s the LD50 test? It stands for “lethel dose 50 percent.”  It was how toxicity was ranked until people came to believe that it was cruel to animals.

It’s based on how much venom is needed to kill 50 percent of a test population of animals.
