https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/17/us/prohibition-100-years-trnd/index.htmlIt all started with the temperance movement, which encouraged and advocated for abstinence from alcohol. Much of the reasoning was based on ideas of Christian ethics, and many Christian denominations were active in the movement.
We followed prohibition with the disastrous war on drugs.
Feds Not Liable for Stolen Gun Used in San Francisco Pier Shooting
Source: Courthouse News Service
SAN FRANCISCO (CN) The U.S. government cannot be held liable for a federal rangers stolen gun used to fatally shoot a young woman on a San Francisco pier in 2015, a federal judge ruled Monday.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Joseph Spero found a lack of direct connection between a car burglary and shooting that took place three days later and half mile away made it impossible to hold the government liable for the tragedy.
In this case, the gun traveled at least some distance from the theft, three and a half days elapsed, the gun changed hands once at the very least, and there is no way to know what else transpired during that time, Spero wrote in his 14-page ruling.

In 2014, Navarro ran for Torrance City Council and only received .95 percent of the votes.

The United States Government Has Found a way around the first amendment.
https://www.justice.gov/usao-edva/pr/united-states-files-civil-lawsuit-against-edward-snowdenALEXANDRIA, Va. The United States today filed a lawsuit against Edward Snowden, a former employee of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and contractor for the National Security Agency (NSA), who published a book entitled Permanent Record in violation of the non-disclosure agreements he signed with both CIA and NSA.
The lawsuit alleges that Snowden published his book without submitting it to the agencies for pre-publication review, in violation of his express obligations under the agreements he signed. Additionally, the lawsuit alleges that Snowden has given public speeches on intelligence-related matters, also in violation of his non-disclosure agreements.
The United States lawsuit does not seek to stop or restrict the publication or distribution of Permanent Record. Rather, under well-established Supreme Court precedent, Snepp v. United States, the government seeks to recover all proceeds earned by Snowden because of his failure to submit his publication for pre-publication review in violation of his alleged contractual and fiduciary obligations.
The lawsuit also names as nominal defendants the corporate entities involved in publishing Snowdens book. The United States is suing the publisher solely to ensure that no funds are transferred to Snowden, or at his direction, while the court resolves the United States claims. Snowden is currently living outside of the United States.
Intelligence information should protect our nation, not provide personal profit, said G. Zachary Terwilliger, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. This lawsuit will ensure that Edward Snowden receives no monetary benefits from breaching the trust placed in him.
Edward Snowden has violated an obligation he undertook to the United States when he signed agreements as part of his employment by the CIA and as an NSA contractor, said Assistant Attorney General Jody Hunt of the Department of Justices Civil Division. The United States ability to protect sensitive national security information depends on employees and contractors compliance with their non-disclosure agreements, including their pre-publication review obligations. This lawsuit demonstrates that the Department of Justice does not tolerate these breaches of the publics trust. We will not permit individuals to enrich themselves, at the expense of the United States, without complying with their pre-publication review obligations.
This lawsuit is separate from the criminal charges brought against Snowden for his alleged disclosures of classified information. This lawsuit is a civil action, and based solely on Snowdens failure to comply with the clear pre-publication review obligations included in his signed non-disclosure agreements.
This matter is being handled by the U.S. Attorneys Office for the Eastern District of Virginia and the Department of Justices Civil Division.
The claims asserted by the United States are allegations only; there has been no determination of liability.

All the job growth from 2018 to 2019 from the US Labor Departmet was false government propaganda
https://www.marketwatch.com/story/us-created-500000-fewer-jobs-since-2018-than-previously-reported-new-figures-show-2019-08-21Looking for help? Retail stores arent hiring a lot of people these days as online rivals eat into sales. The U.S. government on Wednesday said the economy added 501,000 fewer jobs than initially reported.
Turns out hiring wasnt nearly as strong in 2018 and early 2019 as the government initially reported by about a half-million jobs.
No doubt Trump's men pressured the Labor department to inflate the figures.
