Dr. Harris Responds to Trump Administration’s Proposed E-Cigarette Regulations Posted: 13 Sep 2019 09:00 PM PDT WASHINGTON, D.C. – Dr. Andy Harris (MD-01) supports the Trump Administration's goal of reducing youth vaping and encourages the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to preserve access for adults using flavored e-cigarettes and other nicotine vaping products as a means of smoking cessation. "I share the Administration's concerns over the increasing rise of e-cigarette use by our youth population and support efforts to curb this growing epidemic. I am also concerned by the reports of vaping related illnesses and deaths across the country. However, initial reports seem to indicate that the illnesses in question are largely attributable to the illicit use of contaminated marijuana vaping products. Accordingly, with respect to vaping induced illnesses, the focus should remain on the use of unregulated and non-FDA approved THC-containing vaping products, which is exacerbated by the growing number of jurisdictions legalizing marijuana products for recreational use. The Administration should use its existing authorities under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and Controlled Substances Act to specifically evaluate the use of THC-containing vaping products, and consider appropriate enforcement actions, if and as needed. With that being said, we must also continue to ensure the adequate and sufficient availability and access of e-cigarettes and nicotine vapor, even flavored products, for adults who are using these products as a substitute for traditional combustion cigarettes, while also ensuring that these products are not marketed, or readily available, to vulnerable youth populations." | |||||||||||||||||||
Misinformation endangers community, law enforcement officers and illegal aliens Posted: 13 Sep 2019 08:30 PM PDT 6 things you need to know about immigration enforcement SEATTLE, Wash. – Advocacy groups, citizens and politicians who propagate incorrect or misleading information about the U. S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) mission create baseless concerns in the community and place innocent bystanders, aliens and law enforcement officers in danger. Local and national efforts are being made by ICE to increase the accurate information given to the community about our mission with the intent of fostering trust and better collaboration in communities across the United States. Here is what you need to know to reduce risk associated with ICE's mission in our community:
"When state and local governments decide to enact sanctuary policies based on false pretense and incorrect data, they fuel misguided anger and set the stage for dangerous attacks against federal employees and government agencies," said Nathalie Asher, field operations director, ERO Seattle. "ICE personnel have a sworn duty to uphold the immigration laws that are enacted by Congress and it's extremely concerning that these patriots are becoming targets of violent crimes, crimes that are a direct reflection of misinformation and irresponsible policies." "Various advocacy groups, who likely have all the best intentions, are not only misinforming individuals but also encouraging them to act in an irresponsible and often illegal manner," said Bryan Wilcox, deputy field office director, ERO Seattle. "Because of external interference, immigration enforcement operations are being escalated to a truly dangerous level. There is a real danger that an alien may take advantage of that situation and cause harm to not only our agents, but to anyone near the incident." ICE maintains that cooperation by local officials and the community at large, is an indispensable component of promoting public safety. Policy makers who strive to make it more difficult to remove dangerous criminal aliens and aim to stop the cooperation of local officials and business partners, harm the very communities whose welfare they have sworn to protect. | |||||||||||||||||||

HAMMER: The Democratic Party Is Fatally Attracted To Hardcore Leftism Posted: 13 Sep 2019 07:30 PM PDT The 2020 Democratic Party presidential candidates finally return tonight to the debate stage. And boy, are the American people in store for a treat. The modern Democratic Party is, at its core, fundamentally unfit to govern the United States of America. In its present form, it is, as I put it in July, "a ragtag potpourri of anti-nation-state/pro-open-borders activists, devoted prenatal infanticide cultists, neo-Marxist economic 'class warfare' grievance-mongers, and identity politics-centric racial identitarian hucksters." The man currently leading Democratic presidential primary polling is a senile liar and faux-"moderate" ad hominem straw man-slayer with a firm decades-long commitment to perpetually reaching new heights of brazen immorality. The woman upon whom a plurality of bettors are placing their wagers is a politically disingenuous, shrill harpy with all the likability of venereal disease. And the septuagenarian loonbag who seems to be rising to near the top of much national and statewide polling is an actual Sandinista-loving communist radical who honeymooned in the Soviet Union and openly shilled for America's arch geopolitical foe at the height of America's existential standoff with that foe. Hold aside for a moment all the sundry problems with the incorrigibly feckless Republican Party. Focus, for now, on the profound maladies of the Left. The Democratic Party, which has never seen a criminal alien sex offender that it hated or a third-trimester unborn child that it loved, is a political party in very, very, very bad shape.

CNN asks Rand Paul if he, Liz Cheney are in 'unbecoming' 'butt-kissing contest' for Trump Posted: 13 Sep 2019 07:00 PM PDT CNN anchor Brianna Keilar asked Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., on Thursday whether he was trying to suck up to President Trump in a way that disrespected his office. Her question came after Paul traded barbs with House GOP Conference Chairwoman Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., on foreign policy. Paul, for his part, accused Cheney of "warmongering," while Cheney suggested he put "terrorists first" over the United States. "When I look at these tweets -- you're tagging Donald Trump in them, both of you -- and I wonder if even as this discussion online highlight two really important, different philosophies are foreign policy, do you worry that it's devolving a bit into this butt-kissing contest that's a little unbecoming of two members of Congress?"

Five NYPD cops are injured trying to break-up a massive brawl in Manhattan Posted: 13 Sep 2019 06:30 PM PDT Five police officers have been injured as they tried to separate a Manhattan melee after high school pupils attacked a cab driver they thought had clipped their friend. The chaos erupted in Hell's Kitchen, New York, where the teens believed the driver had struck a 16-year-old with his vehicle - video that emerged later would prove otherwise. Footage allegedly shows the teenager running out onto 52nd Street and 8th Avenue, where he then crashes into the taxi on Thursday at around 2.40pm. A large group of students then tried to break into the cab to attack the driver and instead kicked and punched the vehicle, an NYPD spokesperson told PIX11. They ignored police orders to stop and disperse, before going onto attack officers, five of whom suffered minor injuries. More | |||||||||||||||||||
McDonald’s customers brandish guns, threaten employee over cold hamburgers Posted: 13 Sep 2019 06:00 PM PDT Two Florida men reportedly pulled out guns and threatened a McDonald's employee after being served cold hamburgers. The encounter allegedly took place around 4 a.m. Monday at a Palm Coast McDonald's. Jawan Davis Jr. and Jordon Dunn, both 20, ordered five hamburgers at the drive-thru. According to The Dayton Beach News-Journal, Davis felt the hamburgers were cold and demanded the employee remake them. "I don't play about my food," Davis reportedly said. The pair then brandished weapons and threatened the employee, according to reports. The McDonald's employee allegedly agreed to remake the order, but went into the back and called the police.

US attorney recommends proceeding with charges against McCabe, as DOJ rejects last-ditch appeal Posted: 13 Sep 2019 05:00 PM PDT U.S. Attorney Jessie Liu has recommended moving forward with charges against Andrew McCabe, Fox News has learned, as the Justice Department rejects a last-ditch appeal from the former top FBI official and current CNN contributor. McCabe -- the former deputy and acting director of the FBI -- appealed the decision of the U.S. attorney for Washington all the way up to Jeffrey Rosen, the deputy attorney general, but he rejected that request, according to a person familiar with the situation. The potential charges relate to DOJ inspector general findings against him regarding misleading statements concerning a Hillary Clinton-related investigation. A source close to McCabe's legal team said they received an email from the Department of Justice which said, "The Department rejected your appeal of the United States Attorney's Office's decision in this matter. Any further inquiries should be directed to the United States Attorney's Office."

Nancy Pelosi Claims Democrat Dan McCready Actually Won In North Carolina Posted: 13 Sep 2019 04:30 PM PDT House Speaker Nancy Pelosi claimed that Democrat Dan McCready "won the campaign" in North Carolina's 9th Congressional District. McCready lost the special election to Republican State Sen. Dan Bishop by roughly 2%, but Democrats took solace in how close the election was. President Donald Trump won the district in 2016 by around 12% over Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. "I'm very proud of Dan McCready. He's a great patriot.

The accused is identified as John Michael Ingersoll, Jr., 46, of East New Market, Maryland. The Maryland State Apprehension Team arrested Ingersoll in Easton, Maryland at 11:05 a.m. Ingersoll is charged with first and second degree murder, and other related offenses. The Grand Jury of Dorchester County handed down an indictment this morning, charging Ingersoll for the 2001 murder after the Office of the State's Attorney for Dorchester County presented the case. Ingersoll is being held in the Dorchester County Detention Center pending trial. The deceased, Gregory Guy Collins, 31, of Vienna, Maryland was a three-year veteran of the Division of Correction and a member of the Maryland National Guard. Correctional Officer Collins was shot and killed while traveling toward his home after working his shift at the Eastern Correctional Institution in Somerset County during the early morning hours on Monday, June 4, 2001. Shortly before 4:00 p.m. on June 4, 2001, Correctional Officer Collins was reported missing when he failed to return home after his evening shift at the Eastern Correctional Institution in Princess Anne. He had reportedly finished his shift around midnight and was driving a gray Toyota pickup truck when the incident occurred. A responding Maryland state trooper noticed a wooded area along Indiantown Road, one mile east of Route 331, where it appeared a vehicle had left the roadway. The trooper checked the area further and found Correctional Officer Collins unresponsive inside his truck. The Maryland State Police Homicide Unit worked in coordination with several law enforcement partners to bring this unsolved homicide investigation to a close. Assistance was provided by the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services, the Eastern Correctional Institution in Princess Anne, the Office of the State's Attorney for Dorchester County, Federal Bureau of Investigation Baltimore Division, Talbot County Task Force, Maryland State Police from the Easton Barrack, Talbot County Sheriff's Office, Maryland State Apprehension Team and the Criminal Enforcement Division Upper Shore. William H. Jones, State's Attorney for Dorchester County, reminds the public that the Indictment is an allegation, and that all persons are presumed innocent until proven guilty in court. | |||||||||||||||||||
Cops shut down massive 3,000-person game of hide-and-seek at Ikea Posted: 13 Sep 2019 03:00 PM PDT Ready or not, here cops come! More than 3,000 people planned a giant game of hide-and-seek at an IKEA store in Scotland — but a team of police officers weren't playing around and broke up the fun, according to a reports. Revelers planned to turn the sprawling furniture chain in Glasgow into an impromptu playground on a Facebook event page last week, prompting the store to call police, according to The Scotsman newspaper. Five cops stayed at the shop for the entire day on Aug. 31 to gauge whether folks were browsing for a cheap desk — or actually hunting the perfect spot to hide. More | |||||||||||||||||||
Opinion: We need to move more people over the Bay bridges, not more cars Posted: 13 Sep 2019 02:30 PM PDT In a time when most of us would acknowledge that there is practically nothing that everyone can agree on, there is one thing – especially here on the Eastern Shore during the summer months – which we would say contradicts that common belief. Congestion stands as one of the greatest threats to the nation's economic well-being and quality of life. Maryland residents are no stranger to this threat, especially when scaled down to the regional impact of this dirty word regarding the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. The structure once symbolized new opportunity and connectivity across the Bay. Now, it symbolizes more of a melting pot for commuters, truck drivers, beach-travelers, and others to sit in traffic together for hours on end. By now you've most likely heard that the Maryland Transportation Authority (MdTA) and the Federal High Administration (FHWA) have narrowed down the prospective third-span choices with corridors identified for new bridge build options.

Ohio State denied trademark for word ‘the’ because … the font is too big Posted: 13 Sep 2019 10:30 AM PDT Most people would probably laugh at Ohio State University's trademark application for the word "THE" in capital letters. It's the best example of the taxpayer-funded institution's cultish belief that it is the most perfect, unique snowflake in higher ed ("THE Ohio State University"). Another example: its extortion attempts against bakeries that take sports-themed orders. But trademark reviewers take these unintentional-joke applications seriously, and rendered a preliminary verdict this week, The Plain Dealer reports. The "office action" letter from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office provides two grounds for rejection. The first is that the fashion brand Marc Jacobs sought to trademark "the" three months before Ohio State filed its application. (The Marc Jacobs application suffered a technical snafu last month.) The second is related to Ohio State's massive ego (citations omitted): More | |||||||||||||||||||

A Viewer Writes.......... WCBOE: elementary school spelling and reading. Posted: 13 Sep 2019 07:30 AM PDT Pardon me but I have a children that attend Wicomico County schools. 3 in Pittsville Middle School. And I have my youngest 2 enrolled in to Prince St Elementary School. Above is a letter sent home from the school advising that county wide spelling would no longer be apart of the homework and curriculum and they would no longer be graded on. However they will send home "words of the week" that are completely optional and expressed that they will not be graded on such words. Now the homework assignment for my 1st grader is to read 20 minutes a night which for any father of a little girl that has the chance should be a highlight of their day. And to color the assigned day to show they completed the assignment. My question(s) are as parents of these students and the amount of money going into our school system. Why are we allowing them to no longer teach/require our students to know the basic necessities in life. Reading and spelling go hand in hand through phonics and context clues is how we all were taught. Why aren't our children being given the basic needs we are sending them to school for. Illiteracy is always suppose to be a big deal in our area and now we have elected to require them to spell basic words. At what point do citizens of this county say hold up to much money spent infrastructure and salaries that we have allowed them to longer teach spelling. And at what meeting did the county get parents involved into that decision making process. | |||||||||||||||||||

As his would-be challengers debate, Trump rips their progressive proposals Posted: 13 Sep 2019 06:15 AM PDT As Democrats face off in third 2020 primary debate seeking to challenge his 2020 reelection bid debated in Houston, President Trump lambasted their proposals during a long, counter-programming speech in Baltimore, casting their positions on immigration, guns, health care and the economy as fringe views antithetical to the values of everyday Americans. In remarks at the House Republican Conference member retreat Thursday night, Mr. Trump denounced the "left wing agenda" of the crowded field of Democrats running for president. He falsely accused them of supporting "open borders" and "unrestricted migration," as well as backing a campaign designed to confiscate guns from law-abiding Americans. Mr. Trump also said Democratic-led polices fueled poverty in urban areas, telling the friendly audience that his administration is committed to curbing homelessness in cities.

Marianne Williamson: What Does It Say That ‘Conservatives Are Nicer to Me’? Posted: 13 Sep 2019 06:00 AM PDT Marianne Williamson appeared last week on Sinclair's America This Week with Eric Bolling and criticized Democrats for having "condescending attitudes" about people of faith. That was apparently not the only criticism she had of the left. Bolling this week shared a hot mic moment from right after that interview — defending the decision to do so — in which Williamson was a little more direct "What does it say that Fox News is nicer to me than the lefties are? What does it say that the conservatives are nicer to me?… It's such a bizarre world." She also said, "I didn't think the left was as mean as the right, they are." More | |||||||||||||||||||

Donald Trump Regains Control of the Asylum System Posted: 13 Sep 2019 04:00 AM PDT President Donald Trump has won the power to 'shut down the asylum system,' complain pro-migration advocates, ending a process which has been exploited by millions of economic migrants to get blue collar jobs in the United States. The protests came late Wednesday after the U.S. Supreme Court announced it would let Trump's asylum reforms operate while California judges review their legality. The court's decision means Trump's reforms can operate well into 2020, giving voters a clear way to assess the impact of Trump's 2020 promises, and should help the border agencies shut off the arrival of new migrants, following the arrival of at least 3.3 million migrants from Central American and Mexico since 2014. That huge population has used asylum loopholes to squeeze through the border, and then lower wages in blue collar workplaces, raise rents in blue collar neighborhoods and pack classrooms in schools used by the children of blue collar Americans. Each year, roughly four million young Americans join the workforce after graduating from high school or university. This total includes about 800,000 Americans who graduate with skilled degrees in business or health care, engineering or science, software, or statistics. But the federal government then imports about 1.1 million legal immigrants and refreshes a resident population of about 1.5 million white-collar visa workers — including approximately one million H-1B workers and spouses — and about 500,000 blue-collar visa workers. The government also prints out more than one million work permits for foreigners, it tolerates about eight million illegal workers, and it does not punish companies for employing the hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants who sneak across the border or overstay their legal visas each year.
