CHICAGO — Prosecutors say a Lakeview man was found carrying 97 pieces of mail, a counterfeit U.S. Postal Service master key, and other items when Chicago police stopped him for a warrant investigation. Imer Resumovic, 37, is currently on probation for burglarizing a Walgreens in the 3600 block of North Broadway two years ago. CPD officers spotted him less than 100 yards from that store around 11:30 p.m. on January 12 and recognized him as someone with an outstanding warrant, according to his arrest report. As the cops patted him down, they allegedly found a forgery of an “arrow key”...

A small town lawyer from West Virginia was in for an extraordinary surprise when he discovered a 253-year-old pre-Revolutionary War fort hidden inside the walls of his Monroe County plantation home. John Bryan, 43, a self-described history buff and amateur archeologist, purchased the property in 2019 with a hunch that the large white clapboard farmhouse was built around an old log fort known as Byrnside's Fort. 'We had to buy the property first before being able to take a crowbar to it to see if the logs were inside the walls.' It was originally built in 1770 by an early...

Hunter Biden sent an email to the manager of his Washington, D.C. office building in September 2017 asking her to make keys for his “office mates” Joe Biden and Gongwen Dong, who he said was the “emissary” for the chairman of the Chinese energy conglomerate CEFC. Hunter Biden’s dealings with CEFC in 2017 were at the center of Tony Bobulinski’s October allegation that Joe Biden was “plainly familiar” with his family’s Chinese business dealings. Multiple news outlets have reported this week that a federal investigation into Hunter Biden’s “tax affairs” is focused on his foreign business activities, including with CEFC....

LA County Voter Attempts to Drop Off Ballot, Finds Ballot Drop Box With Key in the Lock Since Twitter, even after the Elon Musk purchase, is flagging the content, the video might not play correctly outside of Twitter. However, the video shows the ballot drop box with a key hanging out of it on the side on which voters would approach. The narrator says: “I went to go vote, but this is looking a little suspicious. Why is there a key in there?”

The head of the Texas Department of Public Safety said Tuesday that Uvalde police could have stopped the mass shooting at Robb Elementary within three minutes, calling their response an "abject failure." Testifying before a special Texas Senate committee hearing, Col. Steve McCraw, director of the Texas Department of Public Safety, told lawmakers that "There is compelling evidence that the law enforcement response to the attack at Robb Elementary was an abject failure and antithetical to everything we’ve learned over the last two decades since the Columbine massacre." "The officers had weapons, while the children had none. The officers had...

A veteran Democratic operative intricately involved in Green Bay’s November election was given access to “hidden” identifiers for the internet network at the hotel convention center where ballots were counted, according to emails obtained by Wisconsin Spotlight. Green Bay city officials insist the presidential election was “administered exclusively by city staff.” But the emails show that Michael Spitzer-Rubenstein, Wisconsin state lead for the National Vote at Home Institute, had a troubling amount of contact with election administration Nov. 4. “I’ll have my team create two separate SSID’s for you,” Trent Jameson, director of event technology at Green Bay’s Hyatt Regency...

He further requested that an office sign list “The Biden Foundation” and “Hudson West (CEFC US)” as occupants, adding that “the lease will remain under my company’s name Rosemont Seneca.”

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer detailed the painful confrontations he had with Sen. Dianne Feinstein about taking away her leadership position on the Senate Judiciary Committee. “It was like Groundhog Day, but with the pain fresh each time,” Schumer told New Yorker writer Jane Mayer about his conversations with Feinstein, age 87. “Anyone who has tried to take the car keys away from an elderly relative knows how hard it can be.”

A Key West man says he was almost deported to Jamaica even though he is a U.S. Citizen, born and bred in Philadelphia. The American Civil Liberties Union says the case shows a pattern at the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office.

The key for personally surviving today in America's last days is for individuals to see ALL things from Almighty God’s heavenly and biblical perspective (John 17:17, Heb.11:1, 6). The position of TRUE reality, liberty and freedom (John 8:32) is obtained by having a saving relationship to Almighty God's Son, the Savior and propitiation of the whole world (John 3:16-17, Acts 4:12, Rom. 10:2-4, 1 John 4:10). Even if things are improving very little under President Trump, do not trust in this; for we are past the point of no return! A little grace has been given to the USA to...

Having lived right off the water in Pensacola for thirteen years and lived through several hurricanes, my wife and I have learned to be wary of the media when it comes to these storms. First, they always exaggerate the deadly potential of approaching storms, which some might consider a good thing, as it motivates citizens to prepare their property and possessions and to evacuate from vulnerable areas. However, there's the risk that such overselling a storm's threat creates a future risk that the citizenry will ignore warnings of a true killer storm. What I find unforgivable is the way the...

MARATHON (CBSMiami) – Evacuation orders are being given in the Florida Keys as Monroe County emergency managers prepare for Hurricane Irma. A State of Local Emergency was declared for Monroe County on Tuesday afternoon. Traffic is building on the overseas highway as locals and tourists get out of the keys ahead of an evacuation order. “We’re just evacuating, getting out of town before everybody else does,” said Key West resident Luann Huff. Huff lives in Key West. She’s heading to Central Florida and she’s not alone on the road. “If it stays on this course, then I’m gone,” said Florida...

is only a matter a time. You have to be right 100% of the time — and with Obama importing whole Muslim communities from jihad nations, it is impossible. Which is why we have seen this spike in jihad terror attacks (Chattanooga, Boston, Garland …..). The idea that you cannot profile for jihad is suicidal. It is submission to Islamic supremacism. A Florida man charged earlier this week in an alleged Islamic State-inspired plot to detonate a bomb on a crowded beach was once cleared to work at the Key West International Airport, where his job provided him direct access...

A South Florida man has been charged with attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction in Key West. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Harlem Suarez, a/k/a “Almlak Benitez,” 23, of Key West was posting extremist rhetoric on his Facebook page which promoted the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), a foreign terrorist organization. That caught the attention of the FBI. The criminal complaint states Suarez told an undercover FBI informant that he wanted to make a “timer bomb.” Suarez bought galvanized nails, which were to be hidden in a backpack and remotely detonated by cell phone,...

Another Friday, another violation of American freedoms and rights. This one is personal. Today, ICANN and the US government announced their intention to relinquish control of the Internet to the UN by 2015. Where’s Congress? Where’s the outrage that should be thunderous over this travesty? From WaPo: U.S. officials announced plans Friday to relinquish federal government control over the administration of the Internet, a move that pleased international critics but alarmed some business leaders and others who rely on the smooth functioning of the Web. Pressure to let go of the final vestiges of U.S. authority over the system of...
