Villains in America and The First Amendment
Many Americans have awoken from a deep slumber to realize that something fundamentally wrong is playing out in this great nation.

Hiding the Funding in Oceanside
Some folks are ashamed of how they make their money. To each his or her own…a living is a living. Not acceptable, however, are campaigns that hide the source of their funds.
