President-elect Donald Trump indicated Monday that his incoming administration was preparing to declare a national emergency to mobilize military assets to crack down on illegal immigration and secure the border.
Trump responded “TRUE!!” to a Truth Social Post from Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton saying that the second Trump administration was “prepared to declare a national emergency and will use military assets to reverse the Biden invasion through a mass deportation program.”
Iran allegedly plotted to assassinate Irwin Cotler, a noted Canadian human-rights advocate and harsh critic of the clerical regime, but the attempt on his life was recently foiled by law-enforcement authorities.
… The Federal Bureau of Investigation has also been in touch with Mr. Cotler about the unsealing of an indictment in New York involving an Iranian murder-for-hire operation, the source said. Although not mentioned in the indictment, the source said Mr. Cotler was told by the FBI that his name came up in its probe.
Sounds like the US uncovered the plot and informed Canada.
Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) incoming co-leader Vivek Ramaswamy laid out the new agency’s vision during an exclusive interview with Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo on Sunday, telling the “Sunday Morning Futures” host the aggressive cost-cutting strategy will begin with executive action and lay the groundwork for Congress to do its part.
“The failures of the executive branch need to be addressed because the dirty little secret right now is the people we elect to run the government, they’re not the ones who actually run the government. It’s the unelected bureaucrats in the administrative state that was created through executive action. It’s going to be fixed through executive action,” he said.

On June 15, 2023, police searched a Calgary home and found an ISIS flag, three knives, bomb-making instructions and ideological tracts on killing gay men.
“I’m a member of ISIS,” the owner of the materials, Zakarya Rida Hussein, had written on Snapchat as he planned an attack during the city’s month-long Pride celebrations.
“Tomorrow my mission begins. It’s pride month.”
Sweden is sending out five million pamphlets to residents urging them to prepare for the possibility of war, with instructions on how to stockpile food and even seek shelter during a nuclear attack, as fears grow of a conflict between Russia and NATO.
Since the start of the war in Ukraine, Stockholm has repeatedly urged Swedes to prepare both mentally and logistically for a possibile conflict, citing the worsening security situation in its vicinity.
The booklet ‘If Crisis or War Comes’, sent out by the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB), contains information about how to prepare for emergencies such as war, natural disasters, cyber attacks and terrorism.
What a crazy assed town!
A new poll shows a majority of Canadians say the Liberal Party should be led by someone other than Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in the next election, with only 24 per cent saying he should stay on.
The Nanos Research survey conducted for The Globe and Mail asked whether Mr. Trudeau should lead the Liberals in the next election or whether the party should choose someone else.
Fifty-seven per cent said someone else should be leader. Fifteen per cent said they had no preference, and 4 per cent said they were unsure.
He’s not going to leave of his own volition.
He really thinks he can just post a video blaming everyone but himself for all the ills he has visited upon Canadians and voila he’ll be back in our good graces.
Yes he is that delusional.
MSNBC’s Morning Joe cohosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski announced on Monday they opened a line of communication with President-elect Donald Trump.
The meeting undermines their previous claims that Trump is a threat to democracy, a fascist, and “going full-on Hitler.”
They need JD Vance to attend that meet-up.
Going over will in Kamala land.
Fuck Joe & Mika.
Fuck Morning Joe.
And fuck MSNBC if they keep them on the fucking air.— Jo (@JoJoFromJerz) November 18, 2024

Immigrants sick of being scapegoated plan one-day strike Dec. 18
This year “we’ve seen an aggressive shift against the temporary migrant in Canada, whether student, refugee, temporary worker, with numerous migration restrictions from one day to the next that are creating greater precariousness for migrant workers,” Immigrant Workers Centre organizer Hector Salamanca told reporters.
The Grift is over.

Outraged Oregon high school students blasted the school board for letting a teacher accused of pedophilia continue working despite mounting allegations.
The St. Helens School District was forced to cancel classes, place the superintendent and high school principal on leave and accept the board chair’s resignation following the arrest of two teachers on child sex abuse charges.
Choir teacher Eric Stearns, 46, and retired math teacher Mark Collins, 64, were arrested on Tuesday after police conducted a two-month long investigation into historical sexual abuse at St. Helens High School.
A few days ago, for the first time in my life, the CBC opened its airwaves to its critics, and I got to complain.
It happened in the unlikeliest of places, on a CBC radio show called Commotion, which the national public broadcaster describes as a place for “vibrant conversations” about “all things pop culture.”
The panel conversation, titled “Three Critics on the Future of the CBC,” was timely. Not only is the Trudeau government’s announcement about a new CBC mandate expected any day now, but an advisory panel is busy furiously studying how to modernize the broadcaster, and a new CEO has just been named.
"I think we [journalists] are the whiniest industry in the world.
We have a preachy tone that is, 'Woe is us. Oh my gosh. We're being so hurt. Oh, we're not safe.'
'It's a calling. It's not a job. We have a calling. I felt this, urge when I was 18 to just be drawn towards this… pic.twitter.com/LZcGmPt8j2

A bullet failed to silence her, now Malala Yousafzai is lending her voice to the women of Afghanistan.
In just a few years since the Taliban retook control of the country, women’s rights have been eroded to the point where even singing is banned.
Malala has a personal history with the Taliban across the border in Pakistan, after a gunman from the hardline Islamist group shot her as she sat on a school bus.
The speed of change in Afghanistan, if not the brutality, has surprised Malala, who since that near-fatal shooting in 2012 has campaigned for equality.
Our elites declared Malala was Islam with a human face and pushed that lie on the rest of us to control the narrative.
After Biden’s Kabul rout those same elites were pushing a Kinder Gentler Taliban 2.0.
I have nothing against Malala she’s made out like a bandit thanks to Liberal guilt and their enthusiasm for communists.
But the grift was pretty thin to start with and her statement on the loss of women’s rights sounds like something “The Resistance” would mouth on their 2nd box of wine while grieving over Trump.
Canada’s multimillion-dollar factory to farm crickets is falling silent amid layoffs. Once dismissed as a “right-wing conspiracy theory,” harvesting insects for human consumption is an emerging policy goal for the worldwide left. Without an understanding of the market, though, such schemes will be a breakfast boondoggle.
“In matters of taste,” a quote attributed to various retail pioneers goes, “the customer is always right.” The first half of the slogan has fallen away in the century since it emerged, truncated to “the customer is always right.” On the matter of serving bugs, the entire phrase is being ignored by those who think they know better.

In his first 100 days, President-elect Donald Trump plans to begin the process of deporting hundreds of thousands of people. He is expected to end parole for people from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela. And he is likely to undo a policy that significantly constrained deportations for people who weren’t deemed threats to public safety or national security.
