Young people are more likely to vote for the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) than previously, a study on Tuesday showed.
Authors of the “Youth in Germany 2024” study said that under-30s were increasingly disgruntled with their social and economic situation, and that fears about future prosperity were driving a shift to the right.
The AfD’s signature issue is a hard-line anti-immigration stance, and the data showed that migration was among young people’s main concerns.
Listening to Budget 2024 brought forth a flood of memories from my past as an entrepreneur before being asked to run for office. At the time, I was under 30 and, along with my business co-founders, imbued with the spirit that most startups are fuelled by: unbridled passion, perseverance and a desire to succeed in a system where hard work pays off. As an MP, I see the same traits in young people today.
Who will fall on his sword after the public inquiry into election interference?
Probably everyone has heard of the Japanese samurai practice of “harakiri,” also called seppuku, or “falling on one’s sword.” This action, which apparently dates back to Roman times, refers to a ritual suicide by a soldier for something done wrong. The phrase is now used to describe anyone, most notably a high-level government official, who resigns after having taken responsibility for a mistake.
No one.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) would not say Tuesday whether it is investigating people identifying themselves as part of a foreign terrorist organization heard chanting “We are Hamas” outside U.S. universities including Columbia.
Video footage shows masked Islamists taunting Jewish students outside of President Barack Obama’s alma mater. One woman shouted at a pro-Israel activist, “We are Hamas” while standing outside Columbia University. “We’re all Hamas.”
As I’ve related a few times, Alvin Bragg, Manhattan’s elected progressive Democratic district attorney, is trying to hoodwink the jury into believing that (a) it is a crime for a candidate for public office to conspire with others to suppress politically damaging information, and (b) that Donald Trump was charged with such a conspiracy in the indictment that has resulted in the ongoing trial. In point of fact, there is no such information-suppression conspiracy crime in the law and the indictment against Trump does not charge a conspiracy — it charges 34 counts of falsifying business records with fraudulent intent to commit or conceal another crime.
“The environment at Columbia University is absolutely dreadful.”
If Jews do not feel safe on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, in New York City, in the United States of America, where can they feel safe?
NYC is home to some 1.3 million Jews, the most outside of Israel. Jewish men and women have thrived in The Big Apple for hundreds of years, enjoying religious freedom, prosperity, political power, and the affection and goodwill of millions of their gentile neighbors, colleagues, and loved ones.
At one time, Barack Obama actually uttered truthful words—he said “don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f–k things up.” Robert Gates said Biden has been wrong on “every” foreign policy decision throughout his long career as a politician.
The media and other Democrats pretend that they are very concerned about misinformation (lies) because it can mislead the public on the upcoming election—but they perpetuate misinformation every day as they seek to interfere in the election. They are much more dangerous to our survival as a great country than Russia or China.
The first of Donald Trump’s criminal trials kicked off in earnest this week in New York. Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg has charged Trump with 34 felony counts, alleging that he falsified records to cover up a ‘hush money’ payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.
It’s an unprecedented case. Never before has a former US president, or a leading candidate for an upcoming presidential election, faced criminal charges. There’s a good reason why America hasn’t had such a case before: seeking to jail your political opponent is generally understood to be something only banana republics do.
Insanity in the west includes marching against Israel, the country that symbolizes all the lost values of western society.
In Pedro Almodovar’s film, “La mala educación”, there is an amazing phrase from the protagonist, Ignacio: “I don’t believe in anything and therefore I’m not afraid of anything”. Here it is, the new spirit blowing in the West from Columbia University to the Biennale in Venice, one of the world’s most famous artistic festivals which opened this week in Italy.
A progressive, inclusive, anti-colonial Biennale open to the “South of the world”, where sexual gender and geographical origin count more than talent.
A schoolteacher was lucky to be alive on Wednesday night after being stabbed in the neck by a teenage girl during a playground knife rampage.
Armed with a flick knife, the teenager is said to have targeted the teacher before a fellow pupil and a teacher intervened.
A colleague then bravely stepped in to disarm the schoolgirl, forcing her to drop the weapon.
US President Joe Biden signed a bill on Wednesday forcing the sale of TikTok from its Chinese owners, a move that could result in a national ban of the app.
It’s an odd partisan inversion. Donald Trump was famously adversarial toward China while in office and tried to ban the app by executive order, but he recently came out against the bill that could actually achieve this. Biden, meanwhile, was responsible for reversing Trump’s attempted TikTok ban in 2021, replacing it with a slower approach involving the investigation of national security issues related to foreign-owned apps.
TORONTO (LifeSiteNews) –– In what appears to be a betrayal of the faith, the Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB) last night voted against trustee Michael Del Grande’s motion seeking to have pro-life flags flown on top of all district buildings in the month of May. The same board in 2021 voted in favor of flying the gay “pride” flags at atop its schools.
The vote against Del Grande’s pro-life motion happened during a regular board meeting Tuesday night, which was packed with supporters of his motion.
So why call yourself Catholic?
Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault has defended his “partnership” with the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) environmental board.
In August 2023, the federal Conservative Party demanded Guilbeault cut ties with the China Council for International Cooperation on Environment and Development (CCICED), which is chaired by Ding Xuexiang, the former chief of staff to President Xi Jinping.
Toronto police have announced an updated list of Canada’s Top 25 Most Wanted—a list that comes with $1 million in combined rewards for tips leading to the arrests of the fugitives.
The Toronto Police Service has teamed up with Crime Stoppers, and the BOLO Program—which stands for Be On the Look Out—to track down five suspects wanted for murder in Canada’s largest city. And Toronto Police Chief Myron Demkiw said he is hopeful the “sizeable” rewards of up to $100,000 will “grab the attention of the public” and bring in new information on the fugitives’ whereabouts.
As many as 4 whites on the BOLO 25!
Wait! Was that ratchet woman who filmed Baldwin on Pier's show?
I gotta find that… brb…
