Border Patrol is tracking and tracing American drivers all across the country, according to an investigation by the Associated Press. This information comes from interviews with eight former government officials with direct knowledge of the program as well as government documents, state grant and law enforcement data, and arrest reports.

Border Patrol has concealed the details of this program for years - going to great lengths to keep it out of court documents, police and reports. They’ve even offered to drop charges in order to not reveal any details.

Their driver tracking program uses ALPR technology, which stands for Automatic License Plate Reader. That could be a dragnet for criminals - it also is a criteria that would sweep up average Americans on vacation or who live in rural areas. Their network of cameras extends along both the northern and southern border.

Canada will soon allow cloned meat onto the market without disclosure. To make this clear, this means that once this new policy is implemented, cloned-animal products could enter the food supply without labels, announcements, or public notification.

The sky is falling. That’s typically just a catchphrase for irrational fear but it may be coming true right before our very eyes. Thousands of flights have been delayed or cancelled. Air traffic controllers are working for free. Many are quitting. Others are using the shutdown and $0 paychecks as a sign to retire. We’re losing 15 to 20 air traffic controllers a day. This is a crisis with no end in sight. Just last week one area in NYC had just one ATC working the night shift. Yes. You heard that right. One air traffic controller. Now depending on your partisan affiliation you might blame the Democrats. ButRegardless of who you pin the shutdown on, one thing is for sure: we have an egghead in control of the Department of Transportation. That would be this guy. Sean Duffy. In fact, egghead is too generous.
