Rep. Adam Schiff calls on Biden to drop out of presidential race

Disgusting pile of shit

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), who is heavily favored to win California’s Senate race in November, called on President Biden on Wednesday to drop out of the presidential contest, becoming one of the highest-profile members of his party to urge Biden to abandon his bid.

In a statement, Schiff called Biden “one of the most consequential presidents in our nation’s history” but questioned his ability to defeat former president Donald Trump and said that a “second Trump presidency will undermine the very foundation of our democracy.”

“While the choice to withdraw from the campaign is President Biden’s alone, I believe it is time for him to pass the torch,” Schiff said.

Michael Higgins: When Trudeau says he’s got your back, watch for the knife

Politics doesn’t have to be the cruellest game, but that’s usually the way it is played. Right now, for instance, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland is definitely being played.

Three weeks ago, the political pressure was on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Would he quit after the Liberals lost the ultra-safe seat of Toronto-St. Paul’s? Former Liberal ministers openly called for new leadership as did one current backbencher, Wayne Long.

To the “nice people”, Trump deserved to die

For months, people have heard politicians, actors and the press calling Trump “Hitler” and the GOP a Nazi movement.

If Thomas Matthew Crooks had succeeded, America would have plunged into civil war.

What is the moral lesson of the shooting of Donald Trump?

This article appeared in the Washington Post: “With each passing day, it will become increasingly difficult and dangerous to stop Trump by any means, legal or illegal”.

By any means, legal or illegal? So why not act accordingly? And didn’t actors like Johnny Depp imagine they could “kill Trump”?

Chrystia Freeland says she believes she has Justin Trudeau’s confidence but ‘he is really capable of speaking for himself’

Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said Tuesday she believes she has the prime minister’s confidence to remain in the job of finance minister.

But Freeland, in her first public comments since Justin Trudeau acknowledged he has talked to former central banker Mark Carney for years about entering politics, suggested it is up to Trudeau to address the questions about who serves in which roles within his cabinet.

I am back! I gots the Power!

The power came back on when things were looking their most bleak at approx 3:30PM.

Our emergency generator was not guaranteed a fuel refill as silly things like hospitals may have needed it more than your stalwart blogger.

That would mean no elevators or water.

But so far so good touch wood.

Please thank Sarcasticat for rising to the occasion and filling in.

Thank you all.

Tech Issue

UPDATE!!

Howdy folks. My Hydro is still out.

We are connected directly to the Hydro 1 transformer station that was flooded.

I am not sure when  power will be restored.

My phone has dynamic IP’s meaning I  am constantly booted out of the blogs admin pages.

That makes posting very difficult.

Soon will begin the funerals of the formerly frozen foods.

Thank for your patience.

Xi Jinping and China: Running Out of Time, Ready to Strike

In recent weeks, China has surged its naval fleet into both surrounding and far away waters.

Most significantly, the People’s Liberation Army Navy sent two strike groups into the South China Sea. The larger, centered on the Shandong aircraft carrier, operated off the main Philippine island of Luzon before transiting into the Western Pacific for blue water flight operations. The other is an Expeditionary Strike Group led by a Type 075 Yushen-class amphibious assault ship, one of China’s largest and most advanced. Four of China’s Type 055 Renhai-class cruisers, described as “the most lethal surface combatant in the world,” escorted the two strike groups.

A mortgage crisis still looms for Canada, for the worst is yet to come

In 2020, in the face of soaring house prices and increasing household debt, Canada’s largest mortgage insurer, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. (CMHC), changed its criteria to make it harder for people to qualify. CMHC did so by reducing the maximum allowable household debt-servicing levels and tightening the personal credit rating criteria.

In Canada, homebuyers with less than 20-per-cent down payment are required to get mortgage insurance to protect the lender in the event of a default. By making it harder for such homebuyers to get insurance, CMHC made it harder for them to qualify for mortgages.

Ottawa unveils net-zero scam to phase out oil-fired furnaces and support heat pumps

The federal government says it has a plan to start phasing out the use of oil-fired furnaces in new construction and get homeowners and businesses to switch to heat pumps over the next several years.

The finalized Canada Green Buildings Strategy, which is being released today, outlines Ottawa’s priorities for decarbonizing buildings — the third-largest source of climate-altering carbon emissions in Canada.

The strategy does not target natural gas and propane heating sources. While the document doesn’t explain in any detail how Ottawa means to phase out oil-fired furnaces, Energy Minister Jonathan Wilkinson said the federal government intends to use regulations and investments to encourage the switch to heat pumps.

At What Temperature Do Heat Pumps Become Ineffective?

Ultimately, the efficiency of heat pump systems depends on their temperature range, which is determined by the type of system you have. Most air-source and water-source heat pumps will become less efficient when temperatures drop below their respective ranges. That is -13°F (air source heat pump) or 45°F (water source).

Geothermal systems are designed to be more resistant to extreme cold weather but can still become ineffective if temperatures dip too low. For geothermal heat pumps, the ideal working temperature range is between 40°F and 75°F (4°C and 24°C).

Geothermal systems are expensive and not an option for many.

Where J.D. Vance stands on key issues: Abortion, guns, Ukraine and more

J.D. Vance, who was selected on Monday as former president Donald Trump’s running mate, once panned Trump’s promises as a kind of “opioid of the masses.” After rising to prominence as the author of the 2016 memoir “Hillbilly Elegy” — which chronicled his difficult upbringing in a steel mill community in Ohio — Vance was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2022. Vance, 39, has moved on from the “Never Trump” camp to embracing Trump and his populist style.

Now that the Ohio freshman will be on Trump’s ticket, his policy positions are likely to come under greater scrutiny. Here’s what to know.

Bad traffic causing locals to consider leaving Toronto: survey

A new survey commissioned by the Toronto Region Board of Trade shows a majority of respondents have considered moving away from the city due to congestion.

The board says the survey provides data on a sentiment that’s popular throughout the Greater Toronto Area (GTA): congestion is getting out of hand. That’s why, according to an infrastructure expert and a cycling advocate, there needs to be a focus on giving people options outside of cars to move around the city.

The survey conducted by Ipsos heard from 1,000 people in Toronto, Hamilton, Durham, Halton, Peel and York between June 7 and 14.

They should do a survey on the diversity of driving habits motorists face in Shithole city.

Bear in mind Chairman Chow views personal transportation as evil and she will go out of her way to run the city into the ground by making driving as difficult as possible.

They Tried to Kill Trump – Now We’re Going to Fight Twice As Hard

The nerve of Donald Trump, inciting that scumbag to shoot him by being literally Hitler, according to the regime media and the regime husk. And then his supporters shockingly dared to get mad about it – why aren’t they uniting around gun control, even though Trump was protected by guns and guns killed the scumbag, and even though guns are the only thing keeping Democrat-supported criminals and Democrat–supported tyranny at bay? But we know whose fault this is. And they know whose fault this is. And they’re going to lie about it anyway.

RCMP has struggled to staff unit dedicated to protection of politicians, records show

The RCMP has been struggling for years to fulfill demands from the federal government that it bolster the ranks of officers who protect politicians, yet that unit has remained significantly short-staffed, records show.

The records, which were filed publicly as part of a labour board dispute, illustrate the challenges the RCMP will face during the scheduled 2025 federal election, when politicians across Canada will be campaigning amid a polarizing political climate.
