Nolte: ‘Anti-woke’ Comedy Makes a Comeback in Trump Era

The left’s fascist efforts to shame, blacklist, and censor comedians deemed “offensive” has failed. Anti-woke comedians “seem emboldened by the current climate,” laments far-left the Wrap.

“If there was an effort to make stand-up comedy a bit more genteel a few years ago — with offensive words and phrases placed out of bounds,” writes the Wrap, “a second Trump administration has emboldened more transgressive voices who are willing to wind it back to the days when it was fine to have a laugh at the expense of women, trans people, people of color and the mentally disabled.”

Pierre Poilievre is running a good but very frustrating campaign

Given the wild trajectory of federal politics since the start of the year, with the Liberals rising an eye-popping 25 percentage points in the polls, you’d think Pierre Poilievre was running a fault-filled campaign. Talk last week of internal disarray at his campaign HQ fuelled the perception.

But it is hardly the case. A bad campaign would have resulted in fading and falling support for the Conservatives. But the party’s high support numbers have barely changed since the months before the campaign began. They are still hovering in the 40-per-cent neighbourhood, which is often enough to form a majority government.

Terry Glavin: Carney may not know why China likes him, but it’s plain for all to see

“One can only correct inappropriate policies in a timely manner if one sticks to seeking truth from facts.”

That will be an uncontroversial proposition to anyone who draws distinctions between good-faith truth claims and instances of brazenly fabricated hogwash. It should be similarly uncontroversial by now to any reasonable person that U.S. president Donald Trump is either unwilling to draw such distinctions, or he’s congenitally incapable of doing so.

GOLDSTEIN: Carney’s carbon tax plan is modern day snake oil

Get ready for buyer’s remorse on carbon taxes if Mark Carney and the Liberals win the April 28 election.

The reason is the uncritical media reporting of Carney’s so-called plan to kill the consumer carbon tax and replace it with a better system.

What he’s actually doing is a classic “bait and switch” manoeuvre — promising Canadians a less costly, more efficient carbon tax regime during the election, the unspoken part being that he will replace it with a more costly, less transparent system after April 28.

Hamas claims UK terror designation ‘breaches human rights’

Hamas is appealing against the UK government’s decision to designate it as a terror group by claiming that the ruling breaches the European Convention on Human Rights.

The organisation has instructed British lawyers to launch legal action in a bid to remove it from a Home Office list of terrorist organisations, which makes it a criminal offence to have any association or show support for the group in the UK.

England being England Hamas could win this case.
