IRS: Internal Retaliation Service

In recent years, we have witnessed arrogant exploitation of power by the Department of Interior and the EPA as they push their political agendas.  And now we’ve found out that the most feared government agency of all, the IRS, has engaged in direct partisan activity by selectively targeting private citizens who speak out for liberty, constitutional government, or free enterprise.  The framers of our Constitution would not be surprised that government agencies, left unchecked, could use their powers for castigation and harassment.  Of all government agencies, the IRS needs extraordinary oversight because of how it is uniquely empowered with the capacity to single out individuals for punishment.

We are being heard! CARB transparency advancing

A proposal resulting from our activism and Assemblywoman Shannon Grove’s leadership on CARB transparency is now advancing through the Legislature. SB 726, a measure to ensure California’s cap and trade auction is transparent has advanced unanimously from two committees over the last two weeks.
 
While Assemblywoman Grove’s bill was our first choice for implementing this important reform, the idea’s advancement illustrates the power of regular citizens speaking out on issues that matter to us.

In Defense of Carbon Dioxide

“The current levels of carbon dioxide in the earth’s atmosphere, approaching 400 parts per million, are low by the standards of geological and plant evolutionary history. Levels were 3,000 ppm, or more, until the Paleogene period (beginning about 65 million years ago). For most plants, and for the animals and humans that use them, more carbon dioxide, far from being a “pollutant” in need of reduction, would be a benefit. This is already widely recognized by operators of commercial greenhouses, who artificially increase the carbon dioxide levels to 1,000 ppm or more to improve the growth and quality of their plants.”

The IRS Wants to Know If You’re a “Patriot”

Across this great land, patriotic Americans are behaving subversively.
 
We’re quoting from our pocket Constitutions, starting reading groups to discuss our founding documents, even gathering together to “petition the government for a redress of grievances.”
 
Uncle Sam is not amused.
 
As leaders of tea party groups have been painfully aware for years, the Internal Revenue Service has given “special” attention to conservative groups.
 
Heritage sounded the alarm on the Obama Administration’s hit list nearly a year ago.
