Biden Team Considers Blanket Pardons Before Trump’s Promised ‘Retribution’

White House officials believe President-elect Donald J. Trump’s selection of partisan warriors for top law enforcement jobs indicates that he will pursue revenge against his perceived enemies.

President Biden’s staff is debating whether he should issue blanket pardons for a swath of President-elect Donald J. Trump’s perceived enemies to protect them from the “retribution” he has threatened after he takes office, according to people familiar with the discussion.

The idea would be to pre-emptively extend executive clemency to a list of current and former government officials for any possible crimes over a period of years, effectively short-circuiting the next president’s promised campaign of reprisals.

Gunman Glenn Litton Attempted ‘Child executions’ at California Christian school in response to “America’s involvements in genocide & oppression of Palestinians” authorities say

Authorities in Butte County have identified the gunman who staged an attack Wednesday on a Christian elementary school that left two children wounded and ended with the attacker dead.

On Thursday afternoon, Sheriff Kory Honea identified the shooter as Glenn Litton, 56. He described Litton as a homeless, mentally ill man with a long criminal record who targeted the school due to its affiliation with the Seventh-day Adventist Church. He died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound at the scene of the attack.

Authorities found a statement by Litton saying that “child executions” were imposed at the school in response to “America’s involvements in genocide and oppression of Palestinians” and attacks in Yemen.

Howdy Y’all or should that be Arrgh Me Hearties!

Note that the Pirate and Cat depicted are only meant as fictional representations of the author and his feline pal.

So … I went to the hospital yesterday.

On Tuesday the left side of my face decided to go numb and began drooping while the left eye was turned into a very irritated red runny mess.

I decided to ignore it thinking that would make it go away. Come Wednesday morning things had deteriorated enough to merit greater concern. So I phoned my niece who politely advised I was a fool for not calling 911 fearing the symptoms indicated a stroke.

And so I did. And here I am at home.

CHARLEBOIS: Is Canada sacrificing consumer trust for ‘cow farts’ and climate optics?

Canada’s recent approval of Bovaer, a methane-reducing feed additive for cattle and dairy cows, has been hailed as a major climate change milestone.

At its core, this innovation aims to cut down methane emissions — essentially reducing “cow farts.” While the environmental benefits may be commendable, the decision raises serious concerns about transparency, food quality, and whether Canada has learned from past controversies in the agri-food sector.

Liberal Women Are Undergoing Sterilization and Blaming Trump

Several liberal women have gotten sterilized or plan to, blaming their decision to become infertile on Donald Trump winning the 2024 presidential election.

In interviews with Newsweek, the women, including an OnlyFans model, said they are afraid of their “reproductive rights” being taken away once Trump becomes president again. Trump has repeatedly said he believes abortion is a states issue, although his left-wing opponents have baselessly claimed that he will ban abortion nationwide.

John Robson: All I Want for Christmas Is a Capable Canadian Military

In just a few weeks, Santa and his reindeer will cross the North Pole and fly through the Canadian Arctic. And they may well not be alone, though the Canadian Armed Forces proudly tracking the sleigh could easily miss the other stuff. So at the risk of asking that more be loaded into his sack than can reasonably be delivered, I request a working military for Christmas.

Tasha Kheiriddin: Trump’s ’51st state’ comment has Trudeau, premiers running in different directions

Canada as the 51st state? Apparently, that’s what U.S. president-elect Donald Trump suggested at his impromptu dinner with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at Mar-a-Lago last Friday.

When Trudeau said Canada couldn’t stomach 25 per cent tariffs, Trump mused about annexation and suggested that while prime minister is a better title, Trudeau could be governor of this 51st state. Sources told Fox News that another guest then suggested that Canada would be a very liberal state, whereupon Trump offered that Canada could be split into a conservative and a liberal state.

Federal civil service growing three times as fast as Canada’s population: Report

Since coming to power in 2015 the Trudeau government has been hiring full-time civil servants at triple the rate of Canada’s population growth, according to a new study by the Fraser Institute.

The fiscally conservative think tank says the number of civil servants has increased by 26.1% from 2015, the year the Trudeau government was elected, up to the fiscal year 2022-23 — the latest data available.

That compares to a 9.1% increase in Canada’s population during that period.
