Liberal Party preparing to launch ad campaign to take on high-flying Poilievre

The Liberal Party is preparing to launch an ad campaign to fight back against the high-flying Conservatives and close a polling gap that suggests it’s on track to lose big if an election is called soon.

Liberal MPs heard today from Andrew Bevan, the party’s recently appointed campaign director, about what the party has planned to try and claw its way back into contention.

Bevan presented some planned Liberal advertising spots to MPs and explained the party’s vision for the next election campaign, whenever it comes, Liberal sources told CBC News.

Facebook execs suppressed Hunter Biden laptop scandal to curry favor with Biden-Harris admin: bombshell report

WASHINGTON — The FBI warned major US tech companies ahead of The Post’s first reports on Hunter Biden’s laptop in October 2020 that Russian agents were preparing a strikingly similar document dump — and once the scoop materialized, Facebook executives discussed calibrating censorship decisions to please what they assumed would be an incoming Biden-Harris administration, a congressional investigation found.

Philip Cross: Young people are embracing conservatism. What does that mean for the future?

One of the most intriguing recent political trends in North America is growing support for conservative parties among young people. Once a reliable source of support for left-leaning politicians like Barack Obama and Justin Trudeau, a rising share of the youth vote is trending towards candidates like Donald Trump and Conservative party leader Pierre Poilievre. Young people voting for conservative politicians might be dismissed as just a backlash against failed economic policies but there are indications of a more fundamental shift in which youth embrace at least some conservative values.

CRA duped in $40M bogus tax refund case. Why did it take a big bank to notice?

In the summer of 2023, a Canadian taxpayer logged into his Canada Revenue Agency account, falsely amended previous tax returns and wrongly claimed he was suddenly owed more than $40 million in refunds.

Then, without verifying the newly filed tax slips, the Canada Revenue Agency authorized the payments and promptly began making the initial instalments, according to sources.

An investigation by CBC’s The Fifth Estate and Radio-Canada has learned the scam might never have been detected, except for one thing.

Biden-Harris DOJ Just Threw This Black Mom In Prison For 3 Years For Pro-Life Speech Crimes

Pro-life advocate Bevelyn Williams turned herself into a federal prison in Alabama earlier this month. Williams was sentenced to 41 months in federal prison for allegedly violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act during a June 2020 protest outside a New York City Planned Parenthood facility. Williams is a Christian wife, a devoted mother, and a woman who has experienced the pain of abortion. She should be pardoned and reunited with her family, and the FACE Act must be repealed.

What Elon Musk Gets Wrong About Immigration

Musk is right to attack replacement migration, but he should push his own logic a little further.

Elon Musk is an undoubted asset to a counter-revolutionary movement in need of elite friends. His acquisition of Twitter, his crusade on behalf of free speech, and now his active support for Donald Trump all amount to an encouraging set of developments, barely imaginable in 2020, that could prove decisive in the upcoming U.S. election.

Musk has even been calling out the Democrats’ long-standing strategy of weaponizing replacement migration to rig the balance of political power in what is meant to be the world’s model republic. “If Trump doesn’t win this election,” he lately reiterated to Tucker Carlson in an interview, “it’s the last election we’re gonna have.”

Fascism Is a Progressive Tendency — Not a Trump One

“Yes, I do. Yes, I do.” No, this wasn’t a response from the vice president to a “marriage proposal.” Rather, such was the refrain of Kamala Harris who has apparently entered the “Trump is a fascist” phase of her wilting campaign. Asked at a CNN town hall whether she thinks Donald Trump is a fascist, Harris was not content with one “Yes, I do”; it took two.

Teri Garr Was Funny, Smart, And Beautiful — And Always Came Out On Top When Sparring With Men

Teri Garr only has a handful of lines in The Conversation, and when she’s done with her scene she never appears again, but she breaks my heart as Harry Caul’s secret girlfriend who wants more than he’s willing to give and so chooses herself. “Harry, I was so happy when you came over tonight,” she says, “when I heard you open up the door, my toes were dancing under the covers. But I don’t think I’m going to wait for you anymore.”

I meant for this to be posted last night. Better late than never.

America’s ‘most racist organization’ borrows a strategy from the Soviets

On October 28, Newsweek ran an op-ed titled “The Democratic Party Is the Most Racist Organization in America.” It’s written by a former Democratic fundraiser, Evan Barker. In it she writes: “The Democrat’s long-term strategy is to stoke racial resentment to build their coalition and energize non-white voters. The rhetoric is designed to convince minorities that America is irredeemably, structurally racist, and only Democrats will look out for them.” This is the same strategy the Soviets used (and now the Russians use) to weaken America.

UK Labour Government Knew Alleged Southport Killer Could Face Terror Charges

Southport murders suspect Axel Rudakubana faces new charges, including one under the Terrorism Act—prompting fresh accusations of a government cover-up. Rudakubana already stands accused of murdering three young girls and attempting to murder ten other people (including eight children) at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in Southport this summer.

The authorities’ refusal to classify the tragic events in Southport as a terror attack—because, they claim, no clear motive has been established—could seem bizarre, but for their consistent track record of dishonesty and defensiveness.
