After Trump Executive Orders, Smithsonian Page Pushing Racist Propaganda Disappears

‘If you identify as white, acknowledging your white racial identity and its privileges is a crucial step to help end racism.’

Afar-left online project from the Smithsonian has disappeared, just weeks after President Donald Trump signed executive orders enforcing laws against racial discrimination. The project was previously exposed for pushing racist claims about white people.

Soon after taking office in January, Trump signed executive orders Ending Illegal Discrimination And Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity and Ending Radical And Wasteful Government DEI Programs And Preferencing. The orders banned discrimination in the name of “diversity” across the government and directed the attorney general to enforce anti-discrimination law accordingly.

Canada’s Free Ride Is Finally Over

President Trump’s tariffs on Canadian imports triggered the usual response from Ottawa. First under Justin Trudeau and now under his successor, Mark Carney, Canada’s political class didn’t just protest—they retaliated, slapping on symbolic countermeasures and accusing the United States of economic aggression.

Outrage as policy—the Canadian default setting when Washington asserts leverage. But beneath the indignation lies a more straightforward truth: Canada had it coming.

Carney’s “Outrage” is China’s instruction.

Philip K Dick’s nightmares are becoming our reality

In recent decades, intrusive or authoritarian government policies have invariably been described as ‘Orwellian’ or ‘Kafkaesque’. But these days, you will increasingly find more allusions to another past master of dystopian fiction: Philip K Dick.

A prime example of this arrived last week, following reports that the British state is now running a ‘murder prediction’ programme. Apparently, the authorities believe they can use the personal data of known offenders to ‘predict’ who is at risk of committing future murders. ‘Government creating Minority Report-style “murder-prediction tool” that uses personal data to identify most likely killers’, ran a Daily Mail headline. This was a reference to the 2002 film based on Dick’s 1956 novella, The Minority Report, in which a ‘precrime’ police unit, with the aid of psychic individuals called ‘pre-cogs’, hunts down those who – it is foreseen – will commit a crime.

KEENEY: When Carney talks about Canada strong, does he really mean it?

By elevating Mark Carney during a prorogued Parliament, the Liberal Party once again reveals its uneasy relationship with democratic transparency. This was not a moment of open debate or public contest but rather a stage-managed affair, choreographed behind closed doors while the people’s forum remained still and silent.

One is reminded of a previous Liberal pageant: the quiet return of Michael Ignatieff, summoned — by his own admission — by ‘the men in black’ to rescue the nation. Like Carney, he was neither elected nor tested in the crucible of open contest; instead, he was installed and anointed in the shadows. One emerged under the cover of prorogation, while the other did so through the discreet rituals of Liberal backroom diplomacy.

‘Let those US peasants wail in front of 5,000 years of Chinese civilisation!’: Beijing fires extraordinary trade war broadside following JD Vance’s slur

Beijing has accused the US of trying to ‘take away Hong Kong’s life’ in a fiery attack that criticised Donald Trump’s tariffs and JD Vance’s shocking ‘peasants’ slur.

Xia Baolong, a top Chinese official who oversees Hong Kong affairs, branded the US tariffs as ‘extremely shameless’ today as he warned that bullying has never worked on Chinese people – including those from Hong Kong.

‘Let those peasants in the United States wail in front of the 5,000 years of Chinese civilisation,’ Xia, the director of China’s Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office under the State Council, said in a televised speech today.

Beware San Fran’s rationalist cult. They dream of erasing you.

A few weeks ago, after the first preview of my play about artificial intelligence in San Francisco, I found myself talking to Edward (not his real name), an agreeable programmer with a ponytail who didn’t make much eye contact but was eager to discuss the performance and the tech world more broadly. “Have you heard of Iain Banks’s The Culture”? Edward asked. I hadn’t. The Culture, I would later learn, is a sci-fi series about a far-future, post-scarcity utopia run by godlike AIs, where death, suffering, and even traditional economics are obsolete.

I asked Grok to draw me an AI controlled dystopia.

Oddly the sphere triggered the memory of a recurring suffocating nightmare I used to have as a child.

I hadn’t thought of it in many years.

Carney’s driving Grits’ momentum, but polls suggest Tories hold upper hand in ‘commitment gap’

As the Liberals maintained about a 10-point lead against the Conservatives in an Angus Reid Institute survey last week, the Grits were also closing what the pollster called the “commitment gap” between them and the Tories.

The results of the online poll, involving 2,184 Canadians and released on April 7, found that 46 per cent of respondents planned to vote Liberal compared to 36 per cent who would cast their ballots for the Conservatives—positioning the governing party for a fourth consecutive term in office, and with a majority in the House of Commons seats based on the Liberals’ performance in seat-rich provinces.

Polling … good thread

The Reason Why Chicago Canceled Their Cinco de Mayo Parade Is Hilarious

Chicago announced they’re not doing Cinco de Mayo this year. The parade has been canceled for the most obvious reason: ICE likely would’ve had a detention buffet. I’m not kidding. The city decided to close shop on the celebration to avoid their illegals being arrested and deported. It shows that state officials who declare they won’t help ICE is just empty talk—these are federal operations. Federal immigration officers can still arrest and detain illegals, and they’re doing it…

Kelly McParland: Carney thinks Canada is too weak to survive without the CBC

The 2025 federal election already has one big winner. Congratulations, CBC!

Barring a reversal of fortune, Liberal Leader Mark Carney saved the bacon of Canada’s natural broadcasting corporation when he announced that, should he remain prime minister after April 28, his government would not only keep the Crown corporation alive, it would raise its allowance until it reaches levels similar to those in Britain, Germany and France.

Liberal government’s high immigration policy created housing crisis: report

The federal Liberal government is belatedly trying to fix a housing affordability crisis it created though immigration policies which caused population growth to far exceed Canada’s capacity to build new homes to accommodate it, according to a new Fraser Institute study.

“Despite unprecedented levels of immigration-driven population growth following the COVID-19 pandemic, Canada has failed to ramp up homebuilding sufficiently to meet housing demand,” said Steven Globerman, co-author of the study, “The Crisis in Housing Affordability: Population Growth and Housing Starts 1972-2024.”

Growth in Canadian food banks under Liberal gov’t prompts calls for it to be a top federal election issue

Demand for the services of local food banks has never been higher, and Carolyn McLeod-McCarthy of the Guelph Food Bank says she’s worried about the impact U.S. tariffs will have on the local economy and workers.

“We’re quite nervous about what that’s going to mean for being able to provide food to people in need,” McLeod-McCarthy told CBC News.

She said the southern Ontario food bank is seeing more people needing help than ever before.
