Aged Like Milk: The View’s Worst Election Predictions of 2024

The 2024 presidential election dragged on for what seemed like forever and was certainly a rollercoaster of emotions for Democrats. During all that time, the liberal ladies of ABC’s The View had made several proclamations and predictions about the state of the race that didn’t age as well as they hoped.

From high-pitched declarations that “the candidate is Joe” to claims that Democrats would cure America of their Trump amnesia to conspiracy theories of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. trying to “buy” the election, their attempts to manifest a Democratic victory fell flat. But in other instances, their worst fears came to be realized.

Canadians are losing millions in crypto to fraudsters.

Canadians are losing millions of dollars in cryptocurrency fraud schemes and at least one Ontario detective specializing in the area predicts such scams will soon outpace wire transfers as the largest payment method used by fraudsters.

Ontario Provincial Police are warning potential cryptocurrency investors to do more to protect themselves as the digital currency’s popularity grows.

OPP Det.-Const. John Armit with the anti-rackets branch says crypto scam cases are difficult for police to solve because the currency can be quickly sent to exchanges in different jurisdictions around the world that may or may not be willing to cooperate with police in the province.

Houthis vow to continue attacking Israel despite strikes on Yemen

A Houthi political official says the group will continue attacking Israel in solidarity with the Palestinians despite the escalating Israeli air strikes in Yemen.

Mohammed al-Bukhaiti told the BBC that the Houthis would “escalate our military targeting of Israel” until it stopped what he described as “the genocide in Gaza”.

On Thursday, Israeli warplanes struck the international airport in Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, and ports and power stations on the Red Sea coast, killing at least four people.

We’ve lost our national identity – and with it, our pride in our country

In his 1997 book National Dreams: Myth, Memory and Canadian History, which explores the roots, foundations and part-truths that form the basis of Canadian identity, historian Daniel Francis wrote that civic ideology in a country like Canada must be a deliberate product: something that needs to be “continually recreated and reinforced.” Canadians rely on this social construct more than other people, Mr. Francis argued, “because we lack a common religion, language, or ethnicity, because we are spread out so sparsely across such a huge piece of real estate.” It is not, as Mr. Francis wrote, something “we come by naturally.”

Surely that is even more true now than it was more than 25 years ago.

Newly Released Photos Show Biden Corruption at Work

One of the big rumors that hung over Joe Biden’s term as president was foreign business dealings. Through his son Hunter, we heard that the Biden family was making business deals with firms in China, Russia, and Ukraine, with percentages funneling to “The Big Guy,” aka then-Vice President Biden, for selling the “Biden brand” and sealing deals based on Papa Joe’s influence as a mover and shaker in Washington, D.C.

Leigh Revers: Universities better get prepared for Poilievre’s anti-woke agenda

The recent spectacular and decisive presidential election victory by Donald Trump — a self-styled benevolent “dictator” swept to power with an unequivocal mandate from U.S. voters — has become what can only be described as a political tsunami for left-leaning observers.

Vast change is in the offing. The political tectonic plates have shifted, prompting shattering eruptions along a number of predictable fault lines.

The Morrison Hotel, the famous backdrop for The Doors’ 1970 album named after it, was destroyed by a huge fire Thursday while being occupied by dozens of homeless squatters.

The Canadians Who Say: ‘Trump, Take My Country—Please!’

OTTAWA—Every day, just before sunset, 33-year-old Ryan Hemsley heads to Clover Point, a scenic stretch along the southern coast of Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada’s westernmost province. When the weather is clear, he can look across the Strait of Juan de Fuca and see the Olympic Mountains in Washington State.

“Subconsciously, there’s something that keeps bringing me here every day,” Hemsley told me. Watching the Seattle ferry return to the U.S., his thoughts drift to an unlikely fantasy.

“How can I be a stowaway so I can be an American?” he said.

You lost me at Multiculturalism and Diversity ….

Aviva Klompas: Jew hatred is not just a Jewish problem. It’s a Canadian problem

…This global surge in Jew-hatred is inexcusable everywhere, but its prevalence in Canada is particularly shameful. Canada was the first nation to adopt multiculturalism as an official policy in 1971, later enshrining it in law through the Canadian Multiculturalism Act of 1988. Canadians pride themselves on being champions of diversity and tolerance, yet today, what they are tolerating is violence and bigotry.

Most damningly, they have failed to recognize that Jew-hatred is not just a Jewish problem — it is a Canadian problem.


Canadians have a lot of problems. Many caused by Multiculturalism, Diversity & Tolerance.

The Liberal government declared war on its own people by actively demonizing Canadians who objected to mass immigration and the one way street of “Tolerance.”

Canadian values and heritage have been denigrated and White Canadians openly discriminated against in hiring.

The situation is so perverse, so evil that school children are labeled oppressors and racists because they have “White skin” under the NAZI like DEI programs our governments condone.

Imported Fifth Columns comprised of incompatible cultures have brought us increased violence and crime, a lowered standard of living, homelessness, unemployment, an affordability crisis, foreign conflicts fought out in our streets along with baked in antisemitism and Christianophobia. That’s how multiculturalism, diversity and tolerance have benefited Canadians.

We are treated as unwanted guests in our own home. For better than 20 years we were cowed by the threat of cancelation to the point we would not defend ourselves.

No one came to our aid, no one said “Hey maybe we shouldn’t label White people racist just for having white skin” or “You know what legalized discrimination against Whites in hiring is wrong.”

And why would our replacements help us when the scam was working so well to their benefit?

People in general are fed up at those governments that have allowed the protests to continue since that fateful Oct 7 but I do not have the sense that the Israeli-Muslim conflict is a topic of water cooler conversation any longer.

Most of the antisemitism in Canada emanates from our elites in academia and government bolstered by the Islamists they imported and not from average Canadians. The success our elites enjoyed demonizing White people was easily transferred to Jews when it came time to strike a blow for Gaza which no doubt came as a shock to their fellow travelers in the diaspora.

We can vote and yes Trudeau and his party should burn in hell but I see no savior on our horizon.

Canada has been poisoned & the culture changed for the worse. Justin’s replacements have no shared history with Canada, no appreciation of Western culture and no motivation to assimilate. I doubt Jews and the holocaust are even on their radar.

We are on the outside looking in. I doubt Canadians are much inclined to rally in the streets when no one could be bothered to rally for them.

An appeal to our alleged national belief in the magic powers of Multiculturalism, Diversity & Tolerance is nothing more than condescending out of touch virtue signaling.
