Media Matters, a nonprofit organization that smears conservatives, announced Thursday it laid off dozens of employees, including management and journalists, and appeared to cite its legal battle with Elon Musk as cause for the dismissals.

Antisemitism Tsarina: If the DEI Cabal grants Jews victimhood status then they can continue hating on White People.
Eliminating religion as a hate speech defence an idea worth exploring, says antisemitism envoy
Canada’s special envoy for combating antisemitism says she’s “very interested” in exploring the idea of eliminating religion as a possible defence against hate speech charges.
Deborah Lyons, whose mandate also includes preserving Holocaust remembrance, appeared Thursday before a parliamentary committee that is studying antisemitism on university campuses.
Jewish leaders, students and faculty have been voicing concerns about an increase in hate speech and violence since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas war last fall.
Lyons said she believes universities’ equity, diversity and inclusion strategies are “failing Jews in this country” because they don’t make much mention of antisemitism specifically.
So our Antisemitism Tsarina is saying that if the DEI Cabal grants Jews victimhood status then the cabal can continue hating White People.
Why not call for the dismantling of the DEI Cabal?
Does she not get that DEI is all about anti-White racism? Or is it that she approves?

Trudeau’s promised made-in-Canada vaccine plant hasn’t produced any shots
At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made a multi-million dollar funding commitment to build a vaccine plant in Montreal to churn out Canadian-made COVID-19 shots by the end of 2020.
Four years later, not a single vial of usable vaccine has rolled off the line.
The publicly owned Biologics Manufacturing Centre (BMC) was built quickly on National Research Council-owned land at the site of a former animal vaccines plant, thanks to a cash injection of nearly $130 million from the federal government.

Green activists don’t care how many people will die from zero fossil fuel use
We endlessly hear the flawed assertion that because climate change is real, we should “follow the science” and end fossil fuel use.
We hear this claim from politicians who favor swift carbon cuts, and from natural scientists themselves, as when the editor-in-chief of Nature insists “The science is clear — fossil fuels must go.”
Proponents Of Multiculturalism & Other Bad Ideas remain silent over Canada’s Anti-Semitism Crisis
Former general criticizes Canada’s failure to combat antisemitism
VICTORIA, Canada – Canada is failing not just its Jewish community but all of its citizens by fostering hate and violent rhetoric through the inaction of the country’s leadership, former Canadian Armed Forces chief of the Defense Staff Gen. (ret.) Rick Hillier told The Jerusalem Post in an interview on Monday.
The ex-head of the Canadian military said he didn’t go far enough in a May 1 National Post article warning that Ottawa has deserted its Jewish citizens as antisemitism proliferates across the northern country’s cities and academic campuses.
“We didn’t just fail, and are not just failing 400,000 Jewish Canadians; we’re failing 41 million people. And to me, that’s bloody unacceptable,” said Hillier.
Islam, the Left and the DEI/CRT Cabal are the prime movers of anti-semitism in Canada. The people responsible for allowing the mass import of Muslims will never admit to having made a mistake and this being Canada they will get off Scott-Free.
Nor will they face consequences for the anti-White racism that is the core of their deranged beliefs.
They likely still think it’s a good idea. When they find a way to blame it on White People they’ll speak up.
They don’t even try to hide it anymore.
Is this type of unfettered foreign influence acceptable to Canadians? Is our Conservative Leader owned by Israel? To what extent do Christian Zionists control the #CPC?

I would like some clarification on which victims the MP is referring to. Jews and Whites or only Jews for being classed as White?
“Jews have opted to become white in order to benefit from white supremacy.”

I get the impression that rather than abolish DEI the goal is to gain victimhood status. The ADL among other organizations is seeking such an accommodation in the US – See Jewish communal leaders still committed to DEI framework, despite widespread criticism
Are you suggesting that the Jewish community work with the DEI cabal to secure a spot on the victimhood hierarchy? So tell me who would that leave as the sole member of the oppressor class? Oh that's right "White People" my bad.

ICJ orders Israel to halt Rafah operation, requests additional measures
The International Court of Justice in the Hague ordered Israel to halt its Rafah operation, in a blow to Jerusalem’s diplomatic and judicial systems, on Friday. The court also ordered Israel to enable the entry of all the necessary humanitarian aid to Gaza.
All measures were agreed upon in a vote of 13-2. The two votes against each measure were Julia Sebutinde, Uganda’s representative to the International Court of Justice, and Aharon Barak, former Israeli High Court President and Israel’s appointee to the ICJ Panel.
‘It’s not enough’: Israeli official calls on Canada to be a more steadfast ally
OTTAWA — Canada should be a more steadfast ally to Israel, says Ronen Gilor, Israel’s special adviser on Canada.
In an exclusive interview with the Star, Gilor pointed to several points of tension between the two countries, including that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told the Israeli government in March privately there would be “no more deals” to export Canadian-made light armoured vehicles to Israel despite written assurances that the equipment was not for military use in Gaza.
REVEALED: Essex Police call white people ‘non-protected group’ in leaked diversity documents
Essex Police has come under fire for describing white people as a “non-protected group” in its diversity memos, GB News can reveal.
In documents seen by this broadcaster, the force has set a goal to “narrow the disparity” in stop and search and other police actions between “protected and non-protected groups.”
The force’s monitoring of stop and search in diversity documents lists two groups, “white” and “Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic.”
The Equality Act lists nine protected characteristics, including age, sex and race.
No other police force refers to “non-protected groups” in its publications.

‘Overpaid bureaucrats whining’ about forced return to office
As federal public servants start returning to their offices more often under new rules from their employer, many are taking to social media platforms to vent and voice their discontent.
“Feeling pretty despondent about RTO,” reads one post on the Reddit forum CanadaPublicServants, which has more than 69,000 members, and advertises itself (in both official languages) as the “unofficial subreddit for employees and former employees of the Federal Public Service of Canada.”
WTF?

Half of UCLA Medical School Graduates Can’t Pass Basic Competency Tests and No One Dares Question It
What happens when an elite medical school makes DEI its lodestar instead of competence? As it turns out, the answer is pretty much what you’d imagine.
The Daily Caller’s Aaron Sibarium (‘A Failed Medical School’: How Racial Preferences, Supposedly Outlawed in California, Have Persisted at UCLA) does a deep dive into the changes at the elite University of California, Los Angeles’s David Geffen School of Medicine once a DEI jihadi was put in charge of the admissions process. What he discovers should scare the bejeezus out of you.
Poilievre is poised to benefit from a potential Trump victory
Conventional wisdom dictates that as he’s preparing for the Canadian election, Conservative leader Pierre Poilevre is probably praying that Donald Trump loses the American presidential election, now only six months away. The Liberals are betting on it, having launched a new ad campaign that directly compares the leader of the Official Opposition to the reality TV star-turned U.S. president, who is now appearing in court. Justin Trudeau and team are certainly hoping to stoke fear around the idea of putting two uncooperative outspoken conservative populists in power, while feeding the idea that Poilievre is just as brash, untruthful, and controversial as Trump.
Western countries are gearing up for war for the first time in decades
Western nations are taking steps to put their armed forces on a war footing for the first time in decades, according to the boss of defence-technology company QinetiQ.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, concerns about China’s ambitions in the Pacific, escalations in the Israel-Hamas conflict and Houthi attacks on shipping in the Red Sea have spurred Britain, the US, Australia and their allies to invest time and money in testing the readiness of air, sea and land forces, said Steve Wadey, QinetiQ’s chief executive.
