Britain’s Foxes are Beset by Wolves

Violence in the streets reflects the breakdown of the ruling class’ habitual management strategy

The riots that have recently wracked the streets of the UK reflect decades of pent up public frustration with the country’s governing elite, especially their total refusal to control mass immigration despite vote after vote demanding they do exactly that. The pot has now boiled over. But the ongoing back-and-forth of ethnic violence also represents a signal that the British elite’s whole broader strategy of governing – one based in the fundamental personality of the ruling class itself – may be beginning to break down. And that carries some significant implications.

Wokeness and the “Sick Animal”

Nietzsche can help us understand the phenomenon of self-abasement.

My X feed has recently been flooded with parodies of the “White Women for Kamala” Zoom call, where a kindergarten teacher turned social media influencer “gentle parented” a group of white women, explaining that “our BIPOC sisters have tapped us in as white women to step up, listen, and get involved this election season.” Among many ridiculous and troubling elements of the call—Democrats now support separate but equal political gatherings?—one particularly glaring aspect was the kind of self-flagellation on racial grounds that has gained widespread adoption since at least the publication of Robin DiAngelo’s White Fragility.

Elon Musk describes jail sentences for far-Right rioters as ‘messed up’

Elon Musk has described the jailing of riot convicts as “messed up” in a fresh attack on the UK justice system.

The billionaire tech boss, who has clashed with Sir Keir Starmer over his handling of the disorder, criticised the punishments handed to two men linked to the unrest.

Sharing details of the sentences imposed on William Morgan, a 69-year-old rioter, and Tyler Kay, a 26-year-old father of three who stirred up racial hatred online, Mr Musk said both cases were “messed up”.

Assassination plots ‘are ongoing. Trump is still out there’

‘Not a single person has been disciplined, has even been suspended pending the investigation. They’re out still doing security today’

A member of the U.S. House Intelligence Committee is sounding the alarm about more assassination plots against Donald Trump, as the former president continues his quest for the White House this November.

“The plots are ongoing … Trump is still out there,” said U.S. Rep. Michael Waltz, R-Fla., on “Sunday Morning Futures” with Maria Bartiromo on the Fox News Channel.

Groundswell against gender-affirming care becoming too loud to ignore

Four years in the making, the final “Independent Review of Gender Identity Services for Children and Young People,” written by esteemed pediatrician Hilary Cass, was released back in April. It was commissioned by NHS England in the United Kingdom, following well-publicized whistle-blowing over allegedly reckless medical experimentation on gender-confused children at the National Health Service’s prestigious Tavistock gender clinic (which was closed following the Cass Review’s inculpatory interim report in 2022).

It’s time to bring John A. Macdonald out of his confinement

What kind of country keeps its founder in a box?

At Queen’s Park, the seat of Ontario’s government in Toronto, a statue of Sir John A. Macdonald, a father of Confederation and Canada’s first prime minister, stands boarded up on all sides, hidden from the public.

The boards went up after protesters vandalized the statue, blaming Macdonald for the establishment of the residential school system for Indigenous children. They have remained there for the past four years – so long that rodents began using the box as a home.

Ethics commish says fake indigenous companies a ‘great concern’

Damn racist Injun.

Concerns are mounting over contractors falsely claiming indigenous status to secure federal contracts, a practice Ethics Commissioner Konrad von Finckenstein described as “of great concern” during testimony before the Commons public accounts committee.

Blacklock’s Reporter says the issue, which involves businesses misrepresenting their Indigenous identity to benefit from a federal set-aside program, is under scrutiny, though it falls outside von Finckenstein’s jurisdiction.

Controversial councillor ‘created an environment of fear’: Pickering, Ont. council

PICKERING, ONT. – The mayor of an eastern Ontario city and five out of six municipal councillors are condemning the last member of the group for appearing on an online show they say promotes hate speech and extremist views, arguing her increasingly controversial history has “created an environment of fear and intimidation” on council.

In a scathing press release published on Wednesday, Pickering Mayor Kevin Ashe and the rest of Coun. Lisa Robinson’s fellow council members sounded the alarm over her recent appearance on the Kevin J. Johnston show hosted on Rumble, which they call “a far-right video platform.”

They said the show host called the council members “pedophiles” and “Nazis” and said they “deserve a baseball bat to the face” among other pointed remarks, asserting Robinson smiled or nodded instead of refuting Johnston’s comments.

Learning From the Collapse of Catholic Ireland

How did a nation once famous for Saints and Scholars reach such lows? The president of the Irish Freedom Party has some thoughts.

In the sixth century, the monk St. Columba left the Emerald Isle and sailed to Iona to build a new monastery and spread the Christian faith. For centuries afterwards, Ireland held a reputation as a deeply and even fundamentally Catholic nation, responsible for training priests and religious scholars and sending them out across the wide world to preach and teach the Gospel. But today, there is only one seminarian currently studying for the priesthood to serve the entire Archdiocese of Dublin, which comprises over 200 parishes and approximately one million baptized Catholics.

The oldest hatred is thriving in Britain

Britain’s antisemitism problem continues to grow. A report from the Community Security Trust (CST), a charity that monitors racist attacks and abuse against British Jews, documents 1,978 incidents in the first six months of 2024. That is the highest figure ever recorded for the first half of any year and a 105 per cent increase on the same period in 2023. It is no coincidence that this comes after the October 7 attack, in which Palestinian terrorists invaded Israel, killed 1,200 people, raped women and took 250 hostages. As the CST noted in a previous report, October 7 occasioned an outbreak of antisemitic activity in the UK long before any Israeli military response was under way. This latest report confirms the connection, with 52 per cent of incidents linked to Israel or its war against Hamas in Gaza.

Nuclear war would turn Canada into one of the worst places on the planet. (Toronto would see marked improvement)

OTTAWA—In the unlikely, but unfortunately not impossible event of nuclear war, Canada would be one of the worst places on Earth to live.
Or rather, to die.

Alan Robock, a pioneering researcher in the science of nuclear devastation, provides the terrifying picture.

“Countries like Canada — you think you’re safer because you’re a member of NATO and (American) nuclear weapons will protect you. But you’re actually not,” he says over the phone from New Jersey, where he is a professor at Rutgers University.

Iran Knows It Cannot Win a War against Israel

For all Iran’s threats to retaliate against Israel for assassinating key Hamas and Hezbollah leaders, the key concern for the ayatollahs will be that, in any confrontation with the Israeli military, they have no chance of winning.

Tensions between Iran and Israel have risen considerably since Israel was accused of carrying out the assassination of Hamas Political Bureau leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran shortly after the swearing in ceremony for Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian last month.

Law Allowing Phone, Laptop Search at Borders Unconstitutional, Ontario Court Rules

A law that allows border agents to search electric devices, including computers and phones, violates Canadians’ charter rights, Ontario’s top court has ruled, telling Parliament it needs to rewrite the law in six months.

In an Aug. 9 court decision, justices Michael Tulloch, Jonathon George, and Patrick Monahan said that the Canadian Charter “guarantees everyone the right to be secure against unreasonable searches.”
