ROCKFORD, Ill. —A former pediatric nurse in Illinois has filed a complaint with
the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) after she felt forced out
of her job when her employer allegedly told her that she could not keep her
position if she wouldn’t be willing to provide referrals for abortions and morning-
after pills.
Sandra Rojas had been working for the Winnebago County Health
Department for 18 years, when in 2015, she was informed that her unit
was being merged with women’s health under the new administration.
According to Rojas, nurses were required to be trained in referring
women for abortions, and helping them obtain Plan B. When Rojas advised that the mandate conflicted with her religious
convictions, she says that she was told that she could not work at the
department without the training, and was offered a temporary job as a
food inspector. “The new administrator basically showed her the door, saying, ‘Unless
you willing to do this and participate, you can’t work here,'” attorney
Noel Sterett of the law firm Mauck & Baker told OneNewsNow.
Rojas refused the food inspector position and resigned from her job
in 2015. She filed a lawsuit against her former employer a year later,
seeking damages under the Illinois Health Care Right of Conscience Act.
“Nursing is more than just a job; it is a noble calling to protect
life and do no harm,” Rojas, a Roman Catholic, told reporters at the
time. “There is something terribly wrong when you are forced out of your
job on account of your commitment to protect life.”
The Winnebago County Health Department disputes one of the facts in
the lawsuit, as it claimed in legal documents that Rojas had been
offered a full-time job as a nurse at River Bluff Nursing Home, but
rather chose to resign. Rojas now works at Walter Lawson Children’s Home
in Loves Park.
Sterett told the Rockford Register Star that a complaint has also now
been filed with HHS so that the department can “decide whether to open
an investigation.” “Federal law prohibits government officials from discriminating
against medical professionals who cannot in good conscience participate
in abortion,” he said in a statement on Jan. 16. “Those that compel
pro-life doctors and nurses to act contrary to their conscience should
not qualify for federal funds. We have filed this complaint to inform
the HHS of what is happening so that it can take action.”
“Pro-life nurses shouldn’t be forced to perform or assist in abortion
procedures,” also remarked Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) Legal
Counsel Denise Harle, who is serving as co-counsel in the case. “It’s
illegal, unethical, and a violation of Rojas’ rights of conscience … to
require her to participate in the taking of an innocent life. An
individual’s conscience and commitment to the Hippocratic Oath to ‘do no
harm’ is often what draws health care workers into the medical field.
We’re hopeful that the HHS will quickly resolve this injustice.” As previously reported,
HHS announced on Thursday that it is creating a new Office of Civil
Rights division focused on protecting the right of conscience and
religious freedom. “The Conscience and Religious Freedom Division has been established
to restore federal enforcement of our nation’s laws that protect the
fundamental and unalienable rights of conscience and religious freedom,”
the department said in a statement.

In this Fox article,
Edward K. Glassman, my long ago Harvard classmate, author of Dow 36,000
(predicting Dow at that level by 2005), and current director of the
George W. Bush Institute, extolls our free market medical system. The
first reader to comment agrees that we have a “ free market” system, but
thinks that “ profit based healthcare” should be “outlawed.” Another
reader thinks that we actually have “socialized medicine.”
So what do we have? I think the most apt description would be crony
capitalist medicine, one in which powerful special interests conspire
with government officials to create legally mandated monopolies, with
the specific goal of thwarting free market competition. Here is how it actually works:
1. Most people wonder why there are no visible prices in
medicine. You only find out what the charge has been after the service
has been delivered. There actually are prices, controlled prices, but
you aren’t supposed to know what they are. Each year a committee of the
American Medical Association recommends a set of prices to Medicare. The
committee is dominated by medical specialists, so specialists tend to
do particularly well. Medicare is actually run, not by government, but
by private insurance companies, and these companies adopt these prices
for private insurance purposes as well.
Congress further sweetened this price controlled system for hospitals
by requiring Medicare to pay more for the same service if provided by
hospital employees. This has inevitably led to local hospitals buying
out most of the surrounding private medical practices, which has in turn
created local medical service monopolies that feed patients to the
hospital for its more costly services. 2. These monopolies are further sweetened for doctors by legally
barring nurses, chiropractors, four year trained naturopathic doctors,
and other health professionals from using the full extent of their
medical training. In this way, the supply of medical services is
constrained, which further raises prices. 3. Notwithstanding all the preceding, it is not the American Medical
Association, which is itself financed by a monopoly in medical coding
granted by the US government department of Health and Human Services,
nor the hospitals, nor the medical doctors as a group that actually run
the medical system. The top spot is reserved for the drug companies,
which in turn share their largesse with the AMA, doctors, medical
journals, media companies, and especially with politicians. In return,
drug companies are granted a series of powerful monopolies, monopolies
that are drive up the cost of medicine and, given the employer role in
healthcare, destroy jobs, raises, and economic opportunity as well.
First, drug companies claim a legal monopoly when they patent a drug.
The drug research may have been done by the government or by a
university using government money but it doesn’t matter. The grant of
monopoly stands.
Then the drug company takes the patented medication through the FDA
approval process ( average cost of $3 billion over what can easily be a
decade). Drug companies do not object to this ordeal, because the stiff
price both eliminates any competition from unpatentable treatments and
also flows into the salaries of FDA employees, who consequently tend to
take a friendly view of drug companies and zealously guard the legal
exclusivity of their products.
FDA enforcement includes armed raids and threats of a lifetime in
jail for any producer who makes medical claims without permission. Even
cherry and walnut growers have been threatened. The agency takes the
position that for producers to make health claims for these heavily
researched and very healthy “ superfoods,” they must first turn them
into drugs through the drug approval process.
The end result is a narrow supply of licensed drug treatments that
are often highly toxic and rarely cure anyone, both because curing the
patient would end the gravy train, and also because drug side effects
inevitably lead to the prescription of more drugs. If a treatment is
safe, effective, and cheap, it is immediately purged from the medical
system as “unapproved,” not “ standard of care,” when in effect its real
defect is that drug companies cannot make billions from it.
For example, people who have acid reflux are more often than not
suffering from a lack of stomach acid, not too much of it. The resulting
incomplete digestion is the source of the problem. They could cure it
with acid supplements costing pennies, but nobody will ever tell them
about this or suggest testing their acid production. Similarly, patients
with frightening heartbeat irregularities are rarely told that they
need more magnesium, a very cheap mineral, although they may need it in
IV or transdermal form for the same reason ( lack of stomach acid is
interfering with absorption of the mineral). Instead, reflux patients
are given expensive prescription acid blocking drugs that pose a risk to
the entire immune system, and have been linked to pneumonia, other
infections, bone loss, and many other medical calamities, while heart
patients are put on prescription blood thinners that can themselves
cause life threatening internal bleeding as well as bone loss and other
problems.
No, this is not a free market system nor anything remotely close to
one. In a genuine free market system, prices reflect the decisions of
consumers. Producers who solve significant problems are rewarded with
high prices and profits. High prices and profits in turn attract lots of
competition. The competition not only prevents monopoly. It also
improves quality and very importantly increases supply, which is the
only sustainable way to reduce prices. Consumers then get better
medicine and ever lower prices. Producers dislike competition, and
therefore try to buy government help in manipulating or fixing prices.
This is more easily accomplished in medicine, because it can all be done
under the guise of government “ protecting” consumers when actually the
consumers are being fleeced and impoverished.
There are many honest and dedicated medical professionals sincerely
devoted to the healing arts. But they are trapped in a system that can
more accurately be described as a crony capitalist nightmare.

Republican leaders in Congress are once again plotting with
Democrats to stab the American people and the U.S. Constitution in the
back, on multiple key issues. Under the guise of getting “something” in
exchange for providing amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants (and
future Democrat voters) in Obama's illegal Deferred Action for Childhood
Arrivals (DACA) program, the establishment wing of the GOP is pushing a
radical longtime goal of the bipartisan Deep State: mandatory national biometric ID cards for all Americans. Privacy and liberty are under serious threat, critics warned. The Orwellian national ID scheme, known as “E-Verify,” is ostensibly
aimed at making it harder for illegal immigrants to find work in the
United States. Basically, as part of the program, which would become mandatory under the bill,
every employer would be forced to buy a scanner and use it to check the
legal work status of potential employees. On top of that, every worker
would be forced to have a biometric ID issued by the federal government
in order to be able to legally work. Without this national ID, employers
would not legally be able to hire somebody. But in reality, illegal immigrants are typically paid under the table
anyway — many of them simply work as day laborers and get paid in cash
at the end of the day. In light of that fact, the unconstitutional plot
to mandate national ID will do little to prevent unscrupulous employers
from continuing to hire illegal immigrants, off the books. What the
scheme will do, though, is force all law-abiding Americans to carry an
unconstitutional national ID with all their information on it, including
sensitive biometric data, just to be allowed to work. It will also give
the feds a key new tool to monitor and control people.
There is a reason the leadership of both parties have supported the effort for many years. Indeed, even Obama, who did his best to help the United Nations flood America with Third World immigration under various guises,
firmly supported the national ID plan, calling for a package containing
it to be sent to him so he could sign it as quickly as possible. But
now, instead of a Big Government liberal program to track Americans, the
plot is being marketed as an ostensibly “conservative” measure to
supposedly boost “border security” and limit illegal immigration.
A previous version of the scheme was actually sponsored by ultra-leftist open-borders advocate Senator Chuck Schumer
(D-N.Y.). But with the GOP in firm control now, the controversial
national ID provision most recently surfaced in the Republican-backed “Securing America’s Future” Act (H.R. 4760).
Sponsored by Representative Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.), the chairman of the
House Judiciary Committee, the bill has some 70 cosponsors less than two
weeks after being introduced. And already, organizations such as
NumbersUSA that portray themselves as pro-America, anti-amnesty are
expressing a willingness to cave on amnesty as long as the national ID
and E-Verify become law.
Unsurprisingly, the establishment media is celebrating the grand
bargain of national ID plus amnesty, too. “Republicans win with E-Verify
as it gives them cover for approving amnesty for the Dreamers with the
hard right base,” wrote Jake Novak at CNBC, as if only the “hard right”
base was opposed to amnesty (even Democrats used to publicly oppose
illegal immigration and amnesty not too many years ago). “The added plus
for the GOP is that pushing for E-Verify will prove they're not the
slaves of their service industry corporate donors.”
Of course, Representative Goodlatte, who scores a measly 60 percent on The New American
magazine's Freedom Index based on the constitutionality of his voting
record, did include some provisions that would likely please
conservatives. Presumably, though, those elements of the bill are
intended to be exploited as a way to pass the otherwise unpalatable
amnesty and national ID contained within the legislation.
Among the measures that would be popular with advocates of reducing
the tide of immigration is a curtailing of “chain migration.” The
process essentially allows newly naturalized citizens to bring an
unlimited number of foreign relatives to the United States. Some 10
million have arrived under the program just in the last decade, and with
the next round of amnesty, the numbers could surge even higher. Trump
and other advocates of immigration reform, as well as an overwhelming
majority of Americans, have long demanded an end to chain migration, but
to no avail.
The Goodlatte bill also ends the widely ridiculed and highly
unpopular “Diversity Lottery.” That scheme, also enormously unpopular
with Americans, randomly imports 50,000 people each year from
“underrepresented” countries, handing them a Green Card so they can move
to America if they win the “lottery.” The program came under renewed
scrutiny last year after a jihadist “Diversity Visa” winner from
Uzbekistan murdered eight people in a terrorist attack in New York.
Trump has also been highly vocal about ending the “Diversity Lottery,”
which he said should be replaced with a merit-based program.
On the flip side, the Securing America’s Future Act offers a dramatic
boost in the number of foreign workers that companies can import each
year to compete for jobs with Americans. According to an analysis of the
bill cited in media reports, the measure would increase the number of
foreign workers brought in by 45 percent, meaning 55,000 additional
immigrants each year on top of those already coming in. In all, under
the bill, the United States would still see close to a million new,
legal immigrants each year. The bill also expands the H-2C program,
allowing about a million temporary workers to come into the United
States and compete with Americans in the food and agriculture
sectors.
Finally, the Goodlatte legislation would authorize and begin funding
the construction of a physical barrier — parts of which may be an actual
wall, as promised by Trump — on the southern U.S. border with Mexico.
The relevant provisions of the bill would also increase the use of
technology and other “tactical infrastructure” on the border to help
stem the flow of illegal immigration into the United States. And, the
bill would add thousands of additional Border Patrol agents to help
bring the border area under control. However, aside from the amnesty provisions, which have prompted
outrage from Trump's supporters who believed his campaign pledges that
there would be no amnesty, the national ID component is also drawing
fire from critics. In an e-mail to supporters and members of the
non-profit Campaign for Liberty (C4L), former congressman and GOP
presidential candidate Ron Paul sounded the alarm. The implications of
imposing a national biometric ID on Americans are extremely serious, he warned. “The statists want to control you,” Paul wrote. “Just think about it …
Gun ownership. Employment history. Family and friends. Purchasing
habits. Health records. Travel. Religious beliefs. Past political
contributions. Just imagine all these records and more on EVERY American
citizen stored in a massive national database right at a federal
government bureaucrat’s finger tips.”
“Under the statists’ National ID scheme, you’d be forced to carry
around your National ID card, tied to this massive database, chock-full
of biometric identifiers like fingerprints and retina scans,” he added.
“Without this ID, you won’t be able to legally hold a job — or likely
even open a bank account or even board a plane!” And unless the American
people rise up, the nightmarish scenario is “about to become reality,”
Paul warned.
The alleged “security” being pursued in the legislation doesn't even
target any border, continued the former Republican congressman from
Texas who became a hero to countless conservatives, constitutionalists,
patriots, and libertarians. “Instead, it’s meant to create an all-out
police state within them,” he warned. “The truth is, this is exactly the
type of battle that often decides whether a country remains free or
continues sliding toward tyranny.” Indeed, Paul has been sounding the
alarm on this issue for years, including when Obama and a coalition of RINOs tried to ram it through. Among other concerns, Paul, also a medical doctor, suggested that it
would only be a matter of time until the rogue bureaucracies in
Washington, D.C., were using the national biometric ID regime and the
massive data collected to ensure that Americans “don’t go anywhere, read
anything, eat anything, or drink anything they think we 'shouldn’t be
allowed to.'” And with all of Americans' information in a convenient
government database — including potentially retina scans, finger prints,
and even the vein structure in an individual's hands — enforcing total
tyranny would become simple. The push to force Americans to carry unconstitutional national ID
cards with biometric information comes amid a similar push at the global
level by the United Nations. As The New Americanreported in 2015, UN Agenda 2030, also known as the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),
purports to mandate that governments provide “legal identity for all,
including birth registration.” And already, the UN is working with
contractors to issue biometric identification cards and build databases
to store the information. The globalist World Bank is also plotting to foist biometric identification systems on humanity. And both globalist organizations are leading the drive toward a “cashless society.”
With as many as 30 million illegal immigrants in America, dealing
with illegal immigration is essential to the nation's future. As the
Obama administration and the UN have all made clear, importing millions Third World immigrants with alien cultures and values is crucial to “fundamentally transforming” the United States. It is also key to breaking down the nation-state and what remains of Western civilization and Christendom, national leaders have explained.
However, the schemes being discussed in Congress not only do not deal
with the problem, they provide amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants
in exchange for a totalitarian and unconstitutional national ID scheme.
Obviously, that is not going to cut it as far as Trump supporters and
Republican voters are concerned.
For the sake of liberty and the Constitution, Americans must press
Congress to go back to the drawing board and start over — using the
Constitution, common sense, and the “America First” principles
articulated by President Trump as their guide.

Michael Savage - NO national ID Card - Slams Sen. Schumer and Bill O'Reilly -
"Over My Dead Body"
The Senate is working toward a ghastly compromise on immigration reform
that includes a biometric national identification card for all
Americans. The stated purpose of this national ID, which an employee
must present before getting a job, is to prevent undocumented workers
from being employed. Back in December I warned that a national ID is the
inevitable conclusion of the anti-immigration movement. The failure of
E-Verify to catch 54% of undocumented workers is only accelerating the
call for a national ID.
A national ID hurts American workers while pretending to help them.
First, every worker would have to ask permission from the federal
government to get a job. American workers shouldnt have to beg or plead
to anybody to get permission to work. Being employed should be a private
agreement between an employer and employee. Period. The government
should get out of the way.
Second, carrying around government papers with biometric identification
on it conjures up images of a more technologically savvy Oceania or East
Germany. No thanks.
Third, the system will exclude millions of legal workers by accident and
fail to catch the majority of undocumented immigrants. For instance, if
E-Verify were instituted nation-wide 3.6 million Americans would be
denied employment each year and have to visit the Social Security
Administration to correct their records. The employer either fires them
or delays training. Will a biometric ID card make this system better?
How does that help American workers?
Fourth, it will cost businesses up to $800 to buy a scanner. Or as
Senator Chuck Schumer says, employers can just go down to the DMV.
Senator Schumer doesnt know squat about running a business. The last
thing an employer wants to do is spend time at the DMV when he could be
spending it improving his business. And all this during an economic
slump!
Fifth, it would treat every American like a criminal by requiring them
to enter their most intimate and personal data into a government
database. One of the benefits of not having committed any crimes is that
my information is not in a government record office. Id like to keep it
that way.

From FreedomProject Media: Despite blasting federal overreach in education and making
other statements sure to delight conservatives and constitutionalists,
U.S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos continued to mislead Americans on
Common Core last week. Indeed, despite the dumbed-down national
standards still being in place in almost every state, DeVos (shown)
falsely claimed that Common Core was “dead” at the Department of
Education.
After going over the history and how the Obama administration bribed
state governments to impose Common Core, DeVos noted that education
performance did not improve. “Then, rightly, came the public backlash to
federally imposed tests and the Common Core,” she said in a speech
titled “Bush-Obama School Reform: Lessons Learned” last week. “I agree —
and have always agreed — with President Trump on this: 'Common Core is a
disaster.' And at the U.S. Department of Education, Common Core is
dead.” Except it's not dead. In fact, like Frankenstein, the Common Core
zombie marches onward, eating out the brains of millions of
government-school victims — all with help, approval, funding, and
support from the federal Leviathan behind the curtain. So, while DeVos'
speech publicly lambasting the havoc unleashed by the feds in education
sounded great, it does not come close to reflecting reality.
In the real world, under ESSA, GOP leaders and Congress conspired to
give the Education Secretary the power to approve or deny states'
standards — an idea even more unconstitutional than the Department of
Education itself. In any case, Common Core standards and minor
variations on them are all being rubber-stamped by DeVos' Education
Department, just as Obama and his co-conspirators intended when they
created ESSA and purported to mandate “college- and career-ready”
standards (read: Common Core). To read the rest of the article, click here. ________________________________________________________

Google’s mob “tolerance” encouraged “crowd-sourced harassment” to condemn employees
republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
(Natural News) Earlier
this week, former Google employee James Damore filed a lawsuit against
his former employer on the grounds that the company, among other things,
is extremely hostile towards white heterosexual males. There are a
number of notable allegations made
in the lawsuit, but perhaps the most significant one has to do with
Google’s habit of encouraging employees to enforce unwritten norms by
specifically targeting and harassing those who break away from them.
“[Google] relies on crowdsourced harassment and ‘pecking’ to enforce
social norms (including politics) that it feels it cannot write directly
into its policies,” the lawsuit states. If this is true, then Google
could be in a whole lot of trouble. Harassment in the workplace is
already a serious matter, but a company that encourages its employees to
harasses others based on their political beliefs is on an entirely
different level.
But this is only the beginning. According to the lawsuit, Damore’s
memo that he published last year criticizing Google prompted another
employee to step forward and post the following quote: “I’m a queer-ass
nonbinary trans person that is fucking sick and tired of being told to
open a dialogue with people who want me dead. We are at a point where
the dialogue we need to be having with these people is ‘if you keep
talking about this shit, I will hurt you.”
In 2015, Google manager Adam Fletcher wrote that he would “never,
ever hire/transfer” conservatives that he considers to be holding
hostile points of views. Fletcher added that he would refuse to hire
individuals with right-leaning viewpoints even if they were a perfect
fit for the company or if the decision not to hire him or her impacted
the rest of the Google team. To conclude his hostile, anti-conservative
rant, Fletcher stated that “there are always social consequences.”
(Related: Google insiders have warned that “outright censorship” of the Internet is Google’s top priority.)
Google employees have even discussed the election of President Donald
Trump and what they intend to do about it. “Get in touch with your
friendly local Antifa,” one employee advised another. “I won’t say
violence has no place, but if you are going to be doing anything risky, I
can’t overemphasize” the importance of working with people thinking
about the same kinds of scenarios. “We are only powerful if we
organize,” the Google employee said.
Clearly, there are a lot of things that go on behind closed doors at
Google that we would never have known about had James Damore decided
against filing a lawsuit. But as terrible as these allegations are,
Google’s blatant anti-conservative bias is on full display not only
within the company, but outside of it as well.
To give just one example out of the dozens that currently exist, last year, the conservative educational website PragerU filed a lawsuit against Google,
claiming that the company censors its content on YouTube because of the
fact that their videos tend to be more conservative than liberal. For
those who are unaware, Google has owned YouTube since November of 2006.
PragerU has claimed that more than 30 of its YouTube videos have been
labeled as “inappropriate,” even though they are all highly educational
and based entirely on facts. Nevertheless, YouTube’s attempts to
suppress PragerU’s content have resulted in the company not being able
to collect ad revenue, as well as some users with certain parental
settings not being able to watch. (Related: Google blacklisted Natural News and removed an astonishing 140,000 pages from its index.)
Google is proving to the entire world that they are not only against
people with conservative points of view, but that they are also against
the freedom of speech and the First Amendment. They are attacking our
liberty on multiple different levels, and conservatives need to speak
out against it in order to put this political censorship to an end once
and for all.
