Dakota Beacon

If there are any ties to slavery and racial hatred in America today, one look no further than the diplomatically protected Saudi Arabian mission to the United States. Instance after instance of Saudi slavery and human trafficking occur almost every day with no mainstream media coverage.

The less an election inspires interest, the more only the interested cast ballots. And interest in something is a prerequisite for competence. Recall elections help remove the idiot vote from the equation.

The ideology that causes Judge Aquilina to believe that political action—policies, laws, even constitutions—can make reality conform to one’s political vision is the very ideology that already has devastated Detroit.

She simply cannot be trusted.  Her judgment is obviously impaired.  The moment she feels personally slighted, out come the claws.  She is much like an immature school girl who keeps her “enemies list” in her locker. 

. . . thank our good friends in South Dakota; proud of being from North Dakota; Minnesota income tax rates have become among the highest in the nation; Minnesotans will see increased taxes across the board; breaking up the food stamp-agribusiness political alliance; consideration of criminal charges; The Williams County Commission (Williston) has backtracked; persistent inquiries into the investigation; ND oil production moves steadily upward; new energy economy in our state; a Haitian convicted and jailed for drug dealing; DAKTOIDS . . . .

Max Boot contends, and I fully agree, that these four generals  deserve a lot more public appreciation than they have been given. Should a  personal indiscretion, as in the case of Petraeus, McChrystal and Allen,  negate overwhelming military contributions and achievements? Now they are  gone and they will be difficult to replace.

We’re facing, in essence, unchecked data collection as part of a significant and sweeping federal educational mandate. Are we ready for this, and all its repercussions?

There really is no precedent that matches the blatantly political move by Attorney General Kathleen Kane. Even the lead counsel in the ACLU’s lawsuit against our marriage law called her decision “an earthquake moment.” In a television interview during last year’s primary campaign for attorney general, then-candidate Kane stated, “The attorney general does not have the right to pick and choose which laws he or she enforces.” She said doing so injects politics into the job and, “That’s a dangerous proposition.”

The pattern is clear: again and again, we see the people speaking plainly, while officials waffle and eventually violate their oaths, meddle in the supposedly sacred judicial process, and ultimately place their own will above that of the people.

That said, among the most interesting things Ed Miller wanted people to know were his sentiments about the late, great, embattled, and controversial J. Edgar Hoover. What he told me isn’t the standard Hoover narrative we hear in Hollywood today. Quite the contrary:

  . . . Government can’t fix all the problems; They need a new school – fast; In 2010, ND ranked second in the nation for earmark dollars per capita; Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center outside Jamestown; Two very different reactions to high school reunions; Somalis in the Twin Cities; Operation Rhino in the Twin Cities; Minnesota is beginning to regret its reputation for charity; one of the dumbest things he’s done; Mom’s Eats wasn’t necessarily the safest; DAKTOIDS . . . .

Except for the last effort, however, I can’t think of one “triumph” she cites that’s constitutional. And all make stasis seem seductive.

But introducing the emotional, subjective, and pejorative language of “demeaning,” “humiliate,” and “second tier” to issues of judicial review is beneath his dignity as a sitting justice, and merely contributes to what James Davison Hunter calls the “politics of ressentiment.”

In other words, there was never any intention of providing this to the lawyers defending Zimmerman!  The full intention of the prosecutor, Corey, was to continue to withhold this, even if it led to Zimmerman’s conviction and loss of liberty, perhaps for life.

This is not enough to help the rebels win, or even enough to make them believe Christians are good, but it is enough to put us on the wrong side.

But the left is beneath even this. They have served notice that not only won’t they try to get along with Christians, they’ll do everything they can to not get along with them. Obama and his minions have become King Antiochus.

 "We have a kind of mind meld." (Her words, not mine.) "And chances are what he wants to do is what I want to do."
 
 Jarrett is essentially unknown and accountable only to the president. The Obama's and Jarrett prefer it that way. To the president she is indispensable.

Whenever I go down the road of immigration, I always end up here---immersed in the stories of men and women like my forefathers and our new friends and the folks who have traveled far and given up the security and comforts of home for the possibility of a better life.

Our data suggest two answers to the question, what are the essential elements of parenting? What should be my priorities if I want to raise sons and daughters who will exhibit positive youth development?

. When I was there we ALWAYS stayed in touch with those who came before us – we always figured we could learn from them, even if we disagreed with them from time to time – but apparently the current crowd doesn't do that.

This Congress has been overall a bunch of traitors.  They are supposed to be “Republican controlled”.  They were sent to Washington on a holy mission:  to stop the Obama juggernaut.  So, how have they done? 

. . . Fourth grade white students in ND were below the national average; Time to stop bragging; Getting in the way of the people; new Minnesota cigarette tax is $2.83 a pack; Minnesota border counties are crushed; mile-long trains of oil will leave northwest ND each day; Larry Dean Jacobson Jr. (24) sped away in his gangster car; Indian children are placed in unsuitable homes; ousting Chairman Roger Yankton Sr.; organized crime and drugs; We’re back at the river; The obit is full of superlatives; How much government is too much? no stinging revelations; DAKTOIDS . . . .

With a $17 trillion debt as government grows out of control domestically, traditions and time-tested institutions crumbling, and forces around the globe eager to harm American interests, what is reversible and what is not, in coming decades?

"By their fruits ye shall know them." Born in violence, the unions have grown in violence, theft, and corruption. In the middle of the twentieth century, the AFL and CIO merged. By then, their only concern was to divide up the loot and political power.

 Ridicule is most effective when it undermines the political and psychological strength of an adversary. It strips that adversary of their prestige.

It was a war fought by dirt poor Southern white farmers on one side and a lot of German and Irish immigrants filling out the ranks of dirt poor Yankee farmers on the other side. Despite sharing the same race, religion, and history, they slaughtered one another with alacrity. What a different country this might have been if, 400 years ago, someone had suggested, “Let’s pick our own cotton.”

. . . there’s something she doesn’t get: the lawyers’ job isn’t to understand Rachel Jeantel; they aren’t her therapist or minister. It isn’t about her at all. It’s about a man named George Zimmerman, whose life hangs in the balance.

If Coulter and other people involved in the formation of public opinion are to be responsible in their work they must figure this one out before it goes any further. 

This brings us to the myth of diversity. All it can ever be is a liability to, hopefully, be overcome; it can never be the “strength” it’s billed as (without even a shred of evidence in support of the notion).

 “There can be no doubt that the University’s discrimination injures white and Asian applicants who are denied admission because of their race.” In the process, such a racially motivated admission policy “stamps [blacks and Hispanics] with a badge of inferiority. It taints the accomplishments of all those who are admitted as a result of racial discrimination.” Moreover, those minority students who were admitted on the basis of merit cannot be distinguished “from the ones whose race played a role in their admission.” Therefore, their admissions and their achievements are tainted as well.
