We are back live after 2 weeks off this Sunday afternoon. We begin the show discussing an article claiming that the US is not actually leaving Iraq, just rebranding the operation. The article can be found here - http://www.blacklistednews.com/news-10004-0-3-3--.html

We then move on to a CNS article titled, 1,200 National Guard Troops Being Deployed to Border Will Not Be Used to Stop and Detain Illegal Aliens - which you can find here http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/70702

We then play a video from 2007

We also play a video from 2005 from Hurricane Katrina, 'National Guard Confiscating Guns in New Orleans' found here - http://www.spike.com/video/national-guard/2811327 - so they can be armed against Americans but not against Mexican drug cartels?
