US Charges Honduran President’s Brother with Drug Conspiracy

A brother of Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez was charged in the U.S. on Monday with scheming for years to bring tons of cocaine into the country, with prosecutors calling him a big-time trafficker so enmeshed in the trade that the drug was sometimes stamped with his initials.

Federal prosecutors in New York announced drug conspiracy and other charges against Antonio “Tony” Hernandez, a former Honduran congressman. He has previously denied doing anything illegal.

He was appearing in court in Miami, where he was arrested Friday. His lawyer’s name wasn’t immediately available.

The drug-related corruption allegations that swirled around Tony Hernandez have cast a shadow over his brother’s government in a Central American country that is a major transit hub for cocaine.

Honduras is also the homeland of thousands of migrants who recently have been traveling toward and are now camping out at the U.S. border with Mexico, saying they are fleeing a poor economy and oppressive gang crime.

After his brother’s arrest Friday, the president’s administration reiterated an earlier statement that “no one is above the law, and every person must have the right to a legitimate defense and be presumed innocent.”

Democrat TJ Cox Takes Lead Over Republican David Valadao for Central Valley Seat in Nation’s Last Remaining Undecided House Race

Democrat T.J. Cox edged ahead of Republican U.S. Rep. David Valadao following an updated vote count Monday in a House race in California’s Central Valley, with more votes still to be counted.

Cox, who trailed since election night, pulled ahead by 438 votes in the 21st Congressional District that cuts through four counties in the state’s interior farm belt.

The Associated Press had declared Valadao the winner but votes that have been counted since Nov. 6 steadily narrowed the race, and the AP retracted its race call after Cox took the lead.

It’s unclear how many votes remain to be counted. Counties have until Dec. 7 to complete their tallies.

Google accused of ‘deceptive, misleading, manipulative’ tactics to track people

‘Smartphones are being used for spying on our every move,’ says one of several consumer groups filing complaints against internet giant across Europe

Complaints accuse Google of violating EU data protection laws through its Android operating system

Seven European consumer groups filed complaints against Google with national regulators on Tuesday, accusing the internet giant of covertly tracking users’ movements in violation of an EU regulation on data protection.

The complaints cited a study by the Norwegian Consumer Council that concluded the internet giant used “deceptive design and misleading information, which results in users accepting to be constantly tracked”.

Philippine government warns of trafficking rings in Dubai illegally transporting Filipino workers to Iraq

The Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs has issued a statement warning against human trafficking rings operating in Dubai and illegally taking Filipino workers to Iraq.

The alert came after the Philippine embassy in the Iraqi capital of Baghdad rescued two more Filipinos from the southern province of Basra with the help of a local anti-trafficking group.

The Philippine government had previously reported a surge in the number of workers being trafficked into Iraq from Dubai. In August, the Philippine embassy in Baghdad took custody of nine Filipino women, who had been illegally brought into the country from the United Arab Emirates through the Kurdistan Region.

The Philippine News Agency reported that the women were sexually harassed while en route to Baghdad and Basra, an Iraqi port city between Kuwait and Iran.

Across the border, their mainland counterparts rounded up another 11 people in Guangdong.

Acting Senior Superintendent Simon Kwan King-pan of the force’s Organised Crime and Triad Bureau said the 25 suspects included 15 core figures of the racket. The others were Vietnamese illegal immigrants.

Trump Responds To Dire Predictions In The Latest US Climate Report

President Donald Trump disagreed with the dire economic projections in the U.S. government’s latest climate report.

“I don’t believe it,” Trump said when asked by a reporter outside the White House on Monday if he agreed with the latest National Climate Assessment (NCA) report’s projections that global warming could hurt the U.S. economy.

“And here’s the other thing — you’re going to have to have China, and Japan, and all of Asia, and all of these other countries — you know, it — it addresses our country,” Trump said.

How Government Became the Chief Violator of Property Rights

Governmental violations of personal property rights drive much of the resentment, anger, and division we witness in America today.

In 1925, President Calvin Coolidge famously said that the “chief business of the American people is business.” Today, however, this could be reworded as “the business of the American people is redistribution.” And government redistribution of income and wealth—violations of personal property rights—is tearing apart the social fabric of the country.

Over time, the unfairness leads Americans to view political investments (campaigning, voting, lobbying, crony capitalism, rent-seeking in general) as increasingly attractive compared to investing in themselves through education and on-the-job training or investing in their businesses through new plant, equipment, and R&D. At the individual level, a transfer mentality creates welfare dependency and weakens entrepreneurial initiative.

In 1935, President Franklin Roosevelt foreshadowed the dependency problem associated with welfare transfers: “Continued dependence upon relief induces a spiritual and moral disintegration fundamentally destructive to the national fiber. To dole out relief in this way is to administer a narcotic, a subtle destroyer of the human spirit.” Indeed, since the dot-com bust of 2001, transfer income has increased relative to market income in every quintile.

Governments at all levels, through redistribution programs, have become the chief violator of personal property rights in America: taking income and wealth from one person and handing it to another while destroying the human spirit and social cohesion along the way.

James Madison wrote in 1792, “[It] is not a just government . . . where the property which a man has in his personal safety and personal liberty is violated by arbitrary seizures of one class of citizens for the service of the rest.”

Short Video Demonstrates How Installing The Internet of Things (IoT) in Your Home Can Backfire Big Time

Proponents of The Internet of Things (IoT) promise that installing it will make our lives easier by connecting multiple wireless devices together. It’s not surprising that some people really like the idea of installing it in their homes and businesses because tech companies have spent who knows how much on slick marketing campaigns over the last few years. Unfortunately, security experts everywhere have advised against installing IoT many times and in very colorful ways because of its almost 75% failure rate and high risk for cybersecurity issues.

Of course high failure rate and cybersecurity risk still doesn’t make it illegal for tech companies to continue trying to sell IoT to everybody under the sun. In case you or someone you love is considering IoT for home use, this short video demonstrates why this may not be such a great idea after all.

Lying ahead on every road

There are new thoughts

Ready and waiting to explode

When tomorrow is today

Ecuador in Cahoots with US and UK Against Assange. Ecuador Ambassador to UK Carlos Abad Is Removed

Ecuadorian President Lenin Moreno earlier said Julian Assange must eventually leave the country’s London embassy – at the time indicating it would be through dialogue.

According to an Inter-American Court of Human Rights ruling, asylum granted to anyone is irrevocable under international law. Nations are obliged to uphold asylum rights, including the right of safe passage to the country granting it.

Rule of law principles never stand in the way of US actions and aims.

Assange’s asylum is gravely threatened, ongoing since August 2012. Extradition to America is virtually certain if it’s illegally revoked.

A sealed indictment awaits him, revealed in mid-November. Obama declared him an enemy of the state. So did Trump regime hardliners – wanting him prosecuted for the crime of truth-telling, investigative journalism the way it’s supposed to be.

Whistleblowing, other forms of dissent, and truth-telling on vital issues are the highest forms of patriotism. Washington criminalized speech, media, and academic freedom when exposing major wrongdoing it wants suppressed.
