Les Anderson joins us to discuss the latest legal trouble his son Zach has to deal with. The allegations against Zach, again, appear to be nonsensical.
Anderson works on the tech team at his local church. Recently, a 17-year-old girl joined the church staff as an intern. While Anderson has never met or spoken with her, the fact that they volunteer on separate teams at the church is a violation of his probation, according to officials who issued a warrant for his arrest last week.
To whom it may concern:
My name is Pete Tarwacki and I am the Creative Arts Director of Granger Community ChurchElkhart. For the last two years I have had the privilege of serving our Church together with Zach Anderson. He serves on my team almost every Sunday and does so with Excellence and Integrity.
It has come to my attention that Zach has been sited with talking to a minor inside our church walls and I want to make sure we are all on the same page about this.
We are aware of Zach’s past at GCC, so we have taken every measure to make sure that he is following his court orders to the fullest. I have experienced Zach asking me many times how old someone is and if ever hearing they were a minor, he would tell me right away “I’m not allowed to talk to them”. I have witnessed him ignore a hello from a minor and even go upstairs if a kid would get near him on the main floor. Zach has shown nothing but integrity when it comes to these situations to make sure he is not violating any of the policies put in place for him. When he attends evening rehearsal he will say “I need to leave to get home in time for my curfew”. He had told me before that I can’t email him because he is not allowed to be on the internet. My entire experience with Zach has been him trying to never violate any of the restrictions placed on him.
As a church we believe in erring on the side of caution and as a church we have policies in place for our own staff that to some, may look unnecessary. An example would be that a male and female not be alone in a building together or that a married man or women not ever ride in a car alone with a person of the opposite sex who is not their spouse. As a church we never want anyone to assume the worst in us, but instead we always take extra steps to have the highest integrity in all we do.
The minor in question is a member of the Granger Community Church Staff as an intern in the Creative Arts department and is 17 years old. She completed High School last year and decided to serve the Church for a year until she attends college in the fall of 2018. She does not serve directly with Zach and I have never seen the two of them talk, ever.
I just got off the phone with her and asked her if she knew Zach Anderson and she replied, “I don’t think I do, maybe if I saw a picture of him.” I asked her if she has ever spoken with him and she replied, “NO”. I asked her to email me a statement of that and she sent the following:
I have never interacted with Zach Anderson and have never met him.
I am so proud of Zach and how much integrity he has shown in front of me in every instance at our church. Our church is better because of Zach and I count it an honor to serve with him at GCC.

It sounds sort of like a mass of crickets. But not quite. A high-pitched whine, but from what? It seems to undulate, even writhe. Listen closely: Some hear multiple, distinct tones colliding in a nails-on-the-chalkboard effect.
The company does not outright mention President Donald Trump’s immigration policy in the costume description, but the getup has led many social media users to comment that it’s a reference to his border wall proposal.
The University of British Columbia (UBC) is disavowing a scientific paper that links aluminum in vaccines to autism in mice. One of the researchers and co-authors of the report now says the data was purposely distorted to reach the document’s conclusion, CBC News reports.

Law enforcement authorities – including senior Department of Homeland Security officials – and key people within the legal marijuana business quickly noticed that the areas hit hardest by the fires are the same places that California’s marijuana industry legally grows cannabis, and are now starting to suspect foul play.
In Colorado and Washington state, advocates spent millions of dollars, and two Colorado Democrats lost their seats, in the effort to pass laws requiring criminal background checks on every single gun sale.

Seven of the 10 DEA agents alleged to have participated in the gatherings — most of which took place at an agent’s “quarters” leased by the U.S. government — admitted to having attended the parties, the report found. The agents, some of whom had top-secret security clearances, received suspensions of two to 10 days.
Nobody was fired at the IRS, including Lois Lerner, and nobody will face any charges. Nobody was fired at the Veterans Administration. Nobody was fired at the hilariously named Environmental Protection Agency and they poisoned the water supply in three states. Nobody was fired at the BATF three years after Brian Terry was murdered and those guys probably sold some of the guns to the same people who supplied the hookers for the DEA sex parties. And every time someone has the impertinence to ask why nobody gets fired the answer is pretty much the same, just as it was with the BATF.
We are not big fans of Wall Street and we don’t trust them. We foresaw the financial crisis, we fought against the financial crisis that happened in 2008; we don’t trust the banks still and we foresee that with QE3, and QE4 and QE n that at some point there is going to be another significant financial crisis.
As the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) notes, an illegal alien who majored in any of the science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields will get an additional 17 months of permitted work, expanding their initial year guarantee to over two years. DHS has also upped the incentive for U.S. employers to hire non-citizens by offering them an increase from $10,000 to at least $12,000 to hire an alien STEM graduate.

Hungary said Monday its shutdown of the border with Croatia had put a stop to the influx of migrants and refugees.

The craven statement was made by Brady Campaign President Daniel Gross to The Hill. In the article, Gross criticized two Democratic presidential candidates, the NRA D- rated Bernie Sanders and F rated Lincoln Chafee, for not sufficiently conforming to the group’s radical gun control agenda. In taking particular issue with Chafee’s debate performance, in which the candidate stated he would try to negotiate with NRA, Gross stated, “[t]his is not a negotiation with the NRA… We don’t negotiate with terrorists.”
At the beginning of this month Comcast added a small wrinkle to its slowly expanding usage cap “trials,” forcing users in these markets to pay a $30 premium if they want to avoid usage caps (300GB, $10 per 50 GB overages). Initially, this option was only available in Florida test markets, but users in our forums indicate that Comcast has now extended the idea into Atlanta.
