Trump is a racist, says race baiter Sadiq Khan

Sadiq Khan has said Donald Trump criticised him in the past because the US president-elect is “racist”.

Mr Khan, the Mayor of London, said that, had he been white, Mr Trump – who won the US election earlier this month – would not have “come for me”.

And he repeated his accusation that Mr Trump’s policies were “sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic, racist”.

Trump’s team wants Trudeau out in favour of the populist Poilievre

All the consternation over what Donald Trump might do to our fair land after his jolting re-election triumph is not misplaced. But it isn’t the response strategy of Justin Trudeau and his Liberals that should be drawing all the attention.

There’s less than a year to go until our next election. There’s about an 80- to 90-per-cent chance Mr. Trudeau will be gone by then.

Blog notes

Howdy Ya’ All

My building will be without power from 9AM until 2PM today, maybe a bit less, but no worries I have scheduled posts to get us through that shutdown.

I installed a WordPress update yesterday which seems to be causing the Category listing to default to “uncategorized” in some but not all posts, though it may be it affects only posts that include WTF? as a category label. Once it has defaulted it can’t be changed with an edit. At any rate it will likely be fixed in the next update.

If you see any other weirdness happening let me know in the comments.

Thank you for your help.

PS. If you have any news sites or favourite blogs you think I should use as sources let me know in the comments.

Thanks, BCF

Zelensky’s nuclear option: Ukraine ‘months away’ from bomb

Ukraine could develop a rudimentary nuclear bomb within months if Donald Trump withdraws US military assistance, according to a briefing paper prepared for the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence.

The country would quickly be able to build a basic device from plutonium with a similar technology to the “Fat Man” bomb dropped on Nagasaki in 1945, the report states. “Creating a simple atomic bomb, as the United States did within the framework of the Manhattan Project, would not be a difficult task 80 years later,” the document reads.

McTEAGUE: Bad ideology makes Canada’s EV investment a bad idea

What does Donald Trump’s resounding win in the recent U.S. election mean for Canada? Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to have been much thought about the answer to this question in Ottawa, because the vast majority of our political and pundit class expected his opponent to be victorious. Suddenly they’re all having to process this unwelcome intrusion of reality into their narrow mental picture.

Well, what does it mean?

Trump, the MSM and an avalanche of ignorance

WE KNEW the mainstream media in this country hate Donald Trump and have vilified him ever since he began campaigning for office nine years or so ago. But their reaction to his victory last week shows not only that they are unhinged, but childishly naïve as well.

Take one example. The day after the result, Harriet Harman appeared on ITV’s This Morning. Quite why her views on the electors’ choice in the US should have any relevance to anybody is a mystery. Nor could her political opinions be regarded as balanced or representative, but the presenters nevertheless accepted everything she said without challenge. Harman’s disgust for Trump was evident, and she concluded that he would take away women’s reproductive rights, with her hosts nodding in agreement like a pair of donkeys.

Trump’s Triumph Over Jack Smith Sends the Special Counsel Toward Resignation and an Uncertain Future

If Special Counsel Jack Smith resigns before President Trump takes the oath of office for a second time, he will likely take his two criminal cases against the 45th president with him into the sunset.

Mr. Smith was hired by Attorney General Garland in November 2023, two days after Trump declared he would stand again for president. Now, Trump’s success in achieving that goal puts the prosecutor at an impasse born of immunity. The New York Times reports that he “plans to finish his work and resign along with other members of his team” before Trump takes office.

Shock Horror: Islamophobia Outbreak At McDonald’s

These are generally days of mourning (mixed with a generous helping of hysterical fearmongering) for the left, but the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is all smiles. Its Massachusetts chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-MA) announced Thursday that the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD) has found “probable cause” in a discrimination case involving a Muslim woman who claims that a McDonald’s employee deliberately and maliciously served her pork. No, it wasn’t Donald Trump, but the victim and her CAIR allies are furious, and looking for justice, otherwise known as a big payday.

The Kafkaesque thoughtpolicing of Allison Pearson

Now even newspaper columnists are being investigated for their tweets.

As she was getting ready for a Remembrance Sunday memorial last weekend, Telegraph journalist Allison Pearson heard a knock at her door. Two policemen had turned up, she claims in an article published last night, to accuse her of a ‘non-crime hate incident’ – a tool used by police to record accusations of ‘hateful’ speech, even when no law has been broken. When she asked what tweet this was regarding, and who had made the complaint against her, she was rebuffed by the officers, according to her account.
