The Clay County judge ruled today that any orders issued by Pritzker past the 30 days given to him by law are invalid! There are now no limitations on ANYONE in the State of Illinois. You are open, open, open. This applies to schools too – Illinois can not require masks. This also voids any […]
By: Diane Benjamin The “Land of the Free” isn’t as free anymore. Our freedoms are disappearing rapidly as government thinks they are entitled to control us. Proof? Economic Freedom index: http://www.heritage.org/index/ranking United States is 11th Human Freedom Index: http://www.cato.org/human-freedom-index United States is 20th Lots of organization study freedom, Google more results. So, sit back and […]
If you still believe that America is “free”, just consider some of the things that are illegal in America today… -Starting on January 1st, it is now illegal to make or import 75 watt incandescent light bulbsanywhere in the United States. -In Oregon, it is illegal to collect rainwater that falls on your own property. -In New Jersey, […]

Agendas, tax increases, and illegal behavior are much easier to accomplish if nobody is paying attention. The attacks on me personally are beginning. I posted one last week from Normal City Manager Mark Peterson, I may post […]
The communist radical Van Jones isn’t giving up on taking all your guns away. His dream is government control of everything and you being armed makes that difficult.

I have seen far too much despair and defeatism, too many comments that suggest there is […]
by: Diane Benjamin I firmly believe the American people are too smart to fall for the same Obama lines again and they are WAY over voting for the first Black President. McCain was a lousy candidate. We were told banks would collapse without bailouts, I don’t blame anybody for saying – let’s give the guy […]
This post if for citizens who understand America is on the wrong track. It is insanity to send our money to Washington and Springfield and then beg for some back – subject to their rules and regulations. Who is REALLY making local decisions? LOCAL control means the people have control, not far away bureaucrats attempting to socially […]
