Why rural America doesn’t trust Joe Biden

Campaigners can’t be bothered with the voters

“The Democratic Party doesn’t give a shit about what voters have to say.” Eva Posner, a Virginia-based political consultant, is furious. She believes that the progressive establishment will pay for snubbing rural voters.

Forsaken by the Democrats, rural America has offered its soul to the MAGA movement. Donald Trump took 65% of the rural vote in 2020, up from 62% in 2016. The 2020 figure was even higher among rural whites at 71%. The resulting polarisation between blue cities and red countryside is a “byproduct of the Democrats”, says Matt Barron, who specialises in rural Democratic races as the principal at MLB Research Associates. “They don’t even try to compete in rural America.”

Nolte: Dozens of Actresses Refuse to Portray J.K. Rowling in Stage Play ‘TERF C**t’

“Queer-identifying” screenwriter and fascist Joshua Kaplan has written a play called TERF Cunt that is set to debut at the Edinburgh Fringe. There’s just one problem: some 90 actresses have turned down the opportunity to play J.K. Rowling and Emma Watson.

Rowling, of course, is the writer/creator behind the Harry Potter franchise, but she has also stood up to the transsexual madness that makes a mockery of biological truth, undermines women’s rights and safety, and mutilates children.

Biden’s condition shocks allies at G7 summit, with one saying it’s ‘worst he has ever been’: report

President Biden has been “losing focus” during discussions at this week’s G7 summit in Italy, with one diplomatic insider saying the commander-in-chief is “the worst he has ever been.”

Another attendee from a non-US delegation told the Sun Friday that the 81-year-old’s public missteps on the first day of the gathering were “embarrassing.”

Words are not enough; time for decisive action on antisemitism

Never charged as hate speech.

Since Oct. 7, and frankly long before, we repeated in countless interviews and wrote in these very pages about the alarm we felt regarding the antisemitism we see in our city. Since then, the hate and intimidation on our streets, in our workplaces and on our campuses have continued to threaten not only the Jewish community, but also our very society and the values that underpin it.

We have hate speech laws.

“From the river to the sea” is hateful but to ban this and statements like it crosses a line and becomes political censorship.

Joe Varner: Canada’s selfish disregard of defence is the Achilles heel of NATO’s northern security

In the face of global adversaries like Russia and China bent on hegemony and conquest, Canada’s hands-off approach to defence and security is no longer tenable. While the country itself has seemingly not woken up to this realization, its NATO and Western allies certainly have.

New details about sexual assault case against billionaire Frank Stronach

Sexual assault charges laid against Canadian businessman Frank Stronach(opens in a new tab) involve three women who police allege were victimized in 1980, 1986, and 2023, according to documents recently filed in a Brampton court.

Peel police previously confirmed that the 91-year-old billionaire was arrested earlier this month and charged with rape, indecent assault on a female, forcible confinement, as well as two counts of sexual assault.

Poilievre wriggles out of the Liberal trap, with a commitment to much broader tax reform

We would appear, as Woody Allen once said, to stand at a crossroads: “One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness; the other to total extinction.” (“Let us pray that we have the wisdom to choose correctly.”)

That, at any rate, is what one would gather from the rhetoric over the government’s capital-gains tax proposal. On the one hand, according to the Finance Minister, Chrystia Freeland, the measure – an increase in the share of capital gains subject to tax from 50 per cent to 66 per cent, though only (for personal income tax payers) on gains in excess of $250,000 – is all that stands between us and, if not total extinction, then certainly despair and utter hopelessness.

Terry Glavin: Trudeau’s Chinese collaboration has been in broad daylight all along

It’s been quite the melodrama.

For two weeks, the inferred conclusions of “treason” on Parliament Hill derived from an 84-page-report that none of us is allowed to read have only heaped fuel on a garbage fire that began with the leaked revelations of intelligence agency whistleblowers going back to November 2022.

The stinking reek of it all should not be expected to subside any time soon. All the parties in the House now seem content with having the matter kicked over to Justice Marie-Josée Hogue’s Foreign Interference Commission. In the short term, if any legislative good comes of the international spectacle Canada’s political class has been making of itself, it will be in the outcome of Bill C-70, the Countering Foreign Interference Act, which completed third reading in the House of Commons on Thursday.

Trudeau is a witting accomplice.

Joe Behaving More Strangely Than Hunter on Yeyo

Winning, like speaking without trailing off, now seems beyond this politician.

Who’s more out of his mind: Hunter after a 72-hour crack bender or Joe after a good night’s sleep?

President Biden strangely saluted the Italian prime minister at the G7 Summit on Thursday. Evidently, he mistook Giorgia Meloni for General Patton (or himself for Sergeant Slaughter). Later, perhaps hearing Dion singing inside his head, he wandered away from other world leaders observing a skydiving demonstration before Meloni corralled him.

Helping Hamas

A Palestinian journalist reportedly held Israelis hostage, underscoring the Gazan media’s violent connections.

The heroic rescue of four Israeli hostages after eight months of captivity brought an uncomfortable reality to the fore: Hamas and other terrorist groups’ systematic domination of Gazan media. Soon after the extraction, it became increasingly clear that a Gazan “civilian”—who also doubled as a Hamas operative and a frequent contributor to a U.S.-based, tax-exempt media platform—was holding three of the hostages in his family home.

Palestinians’ Heroes: Murderers, Rapists and Kidnappers of Babies

More than eight months after Hamas’s October 7 attack on Israel, most Palestinians continue to voice support for the atrocities committed by the Iran-backed terrorist group, including the murder, rape, beheading and burning of hundreds of Israelis.

This ongoing support for Hamas comes amid US-led efforts to end the current war in the Gaza Strip, a move that would effectively keep Hamas in power to prepare for its next massacre of Israelis.

A careful détente kept the war in Gaza from fracturing Toronto council. A move to create ‘bubble zones’ threatened that peace

As last month’s Toronto city council meeting stretched late into the evening, a debate began that the mayor and some of her council allies had been trying to avoid.

For months, some city councils, Queen’s Park and Parliament have seen fierce clashes over how to respond to the Israel-Hamas war, and an escalating death toll in Gaza.

Councillors and city hall insiders tell the Star there has been a focus on private, sometimes difficult conversations and behind-the-scenes advocacy over how best to deal with local issues, from the safety concerns of the city’s Jewish community to the Charter rights of pro-Palestinian protesters, with the mayor trying to stick to the middle ground and avoid a blowout that would both be unhelpful to the business of city hall, and irresponsibly sow further division in an already tense city.
