Alachua County, FL, the home of the University of Florida, has gotten out of ICLEI, according to this report by the Gainesville TP: Apparently County Commissioner Susan Baird is a friendly voice (wonder if she was audited?): Dearest Friends of the County and the world, My greatest wish (among so many others…) is for the [...]

This report from the People’s Republic of China criticizing the US human rights record did not come from the Onion! No, not Taiwan but the other China is the one critical of OUR human rights record! But this was in response to a annual human rights abroad report: China slammed the human rights record of [...]

Here’s an article I can agree with! The US ought to get out of UNESCO indeed! Earlier this year, Representatives Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R., Fla.), chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, and Brad Sherman (D., Calif.), ranking member of the Subcommittee on Terrorism, reiterated the rationale for the law in a bipartisan letter to Secretary [...]

“American taxpayers are quite often skeptical and critical of federal government bureaucracies. That skepticism is amplified when applied to international institutions like the European Union (EU) and the United Nations (UN), which receives more than $1 billion in taxpayer dollars. “The EU is moving to set a tax on carbon emissions…Not only will this emissions [...]

Here’s the word from the chairman of the Alabama GOP in a Montgomery blog: Governor Bentley also signed Senate Bill 477, sponsored by Senator Gerald Dial of Lineville. This bill, that would bar the state from taking over private property without due process, is intended to shelter Alabamians from the United Nations Agenda 21, a sustainable development [...]

I was misled slightly but materially by one of my sources about the Charles Taylor verdict. I thought it was the International Criminal Court but it is a special court set up by the UN and Sierra Leone instead: A distinction without a difference.

While bills banning ICLEI have been introduced in several states, the best effort was quietly done in Arizona. The Senate and a House committee have voted to prevent the state and all its political subdivisions from implementing the Rio Declaration (That’s where Agenda 21 comes from!) and it bans ICLEI in Arizona!

This is really a major “get” for the Mechanicsville TEA Party. Dr. Michael Coffman is a scientist and ecologist who, after discovering how the environmental movement was using blatant distortions to justify sweeping, punitive legislation, now works tirelessly as an author and speaker to expose their horrifying agenda.
