THE WORLD AT LARGE
Just found out tonight about a planned Federal land grab in 49 counties in Nebraska, Kansas, and OK. National Heritage area, taking away local zoning and banning quite a lot of stuff, like barbed wire and electric fences. It includes my county. Our Federal Reps are worthless for protecting us and our way of life.
This is under the National Parks Service and the Deep State. This is a planed and stealth strong counterattack on rural areas.

I did not see Oklahoma mentioned in either of these articles.

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.)
Pushing for all Americans to have access to broadband via President Joe Biden’s infrastructure plan, Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) responded to criticism that broadband isn’t “infrastructure.”

“The hell it isn’t: it’s an information highway.”

Yes he really did say that.

Federal Prosecutors Will Not Charge Capitol Officer Who Shot Ashli Babbitt, Citing Self-Defense
Chuck Ross, Daily Caller, Apr 14, 2021

“The investigation revealed no evidence to establish that, at the time the officer fired a single shot at Ms. Babbitt, the officer did not reasonably believe that it was necessary to do so in self-defense or in defense of the Members of Congress and others evacuating the House Chamber,” reads a statement from the U.S. attorney’s office, which conducted the investigation along with the Justice Department’s civil rights division.

This is some bull shit!

If the Democrat Party was serious about curbing the epidemic of gun violence in America, they would look in the mirror, because it is their policies and rhetoric that have contributed to the pandemic sweeping across our country.

Today’s blacklisted American: A black conservative professor, because he is black
Robert Zimmerman, Behind the Black, Apr 14, 2021

The intolerant and insane blacklist culture that has taken over our government, our academic community, the entertainment field, and corporate America has reached a new low with today's story. When Paul Rossi, a teacher at the private Grace Church high school in Manhattan, decided to assign his students readings by Glenn Loury, a moderate BLACK conservative professor, the school's head, George Davison, told him to remove those books and instead assign books by 'mainstream WHITE conservatives.…
This school is not educating its students. It is is instead a factory of anti-white hatred, producing students who will not only revile all whites but the very history of America
