Amidst all the liberal outrage over NBC’s hiring of Ronna McDaniel, CNN offered an example this morning of what passes for a perfectly acceptable revolving-door hire.
CNN commentator Ashley Allison was on a CNN This Morning panel to discuss Trump’s hawking of a God Bless America Bible.
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says the upcoming federal carbon price increase is “inhumane.”
“The carbon tax increase on natural gas is going up $4.09, which is more than double the base price of natural gas, which I believe is $1.72 a gigajoule. The so-called solution of the federal government is to increase the carbon tax on something that is life or death for Albertans in the extreme cold of winter,” Smith told the House of Commons operations committee.

The Stuttgart Higher Regional Court on Thursday found that Mercedes Benz staff had deliberately fitted unauthorized devices to rig emissions levels in some models.
The “Dieselgate” scandal, revolving around the revelation that automakers were cheating when it came to emissions tests, first rocked Volkswagen in 2015 and then spread to other carmakers.
OTTAWA — On the same day Canadians will see an increase in the federal carbon tax, MPs will also see a little extra on their pay stubs.
And with that April Fool’s Day pay increase, Canadian parliamentarians will become the second-best paid elected officials in the world after Americans.
Despite mail-in voting and ballot harvesting and a host of other perfectly legal ways to tilt the playing field, could Old Joe Biden actually lose in November? If a Tuesday New York Times story is to be believed, the answer is a resounding yes, and among the most worried is the senescent corruptocrat’s old friend and mentor, Barack Obama.
The UAE is witnessing a reverse migration trend: More former residents, who relocated to Canada and the US for greener pastures, are returning to the country, industry experts said.
Property developers in Dubai have seen increased investments from such new Canadian and US nationals who used to live in the UAE. They are now buying homes in the emirate to move away from the high taxes, rising cost of living and fewer opportunities in the countries they initially migrated to.

Former Empire star Jussie Smollett is taking the appeal of his criminal conviction all the way to the Illinois Supreme Court.
The state’s high court has agreed to hear Smollett’s appeal of his conviction for staging a hate crime in 2019 to garner media attention, according to the Chicago Tribune.
A lower appellate court had already upheld his convictions for his report of a hate crime.
I have to say that watching the recent fiasco in the House of Commons with respect to the subtle (maybe not too subtle) shift in Mideast policy makes it embarrassing enough to be a Canadian, but the government’s mishandling of the economy and fiscal policy is beyond the pale — declining real per-capita incomes in Canada year in and year out.
If not for the tight trading ties with the United States and the good fortune of a rich endowment of resources, the Canadian economy would be in perennial recession.
The photograph that won first place in the prestigious POY photojournalism competition’s Team Picture Story of the Year category is a photograph of Hamas terrorists in the back of a truck posing over the half-naked corpse of German-Israeli citizen Shani Louk.
20 photographs from the Associated Press (AP) depicting the war that began when Hamas massacred 1,200 people on October 7 received the award. The first of these photographs was taken by Associated Press (AP) photographer Ali Mahmud, who accompanied the terrorists who committed the massacre on October 7 and documented their atrocities as they were committed, and captured the terrorists celebrating over Louk’s corpse.
The federal government is calling on banks, credit bureaus, landlords and financial technology firms to include rent payments in credit scores in a bid to help Canadians secure better mortgage rates. But officials say they won’t yet enforce the practice, and one critic expects the move will have little impact on affordability.
… It’s a move that David Hulchanski, a housing expert at the University of Toronto, sees as relatively toothless. Along with the voluntary nature of implementation, he noted that credit scores were less pervasive of a barrier to homeownership than the sheer cost of homes today compared with income levels.
France’s prime minister says a teenage girl will be sued by the state for falsely accusing her headteacher of striking her in a heated exchange over her wearing an Islamic head-covering.
The headteacher insisted that the pupil remove her head-covering inside the school, in accordance with French law.
He resigned after death threats circulated on social media.
Convict then deport.
Four major Ontario school boards are taking some of the largest social media companies to court over their products, alleging the way they’re designed has negatively rewired the way children think, behave and learn and disrupted the way schools operate.
The public district school boards of Toronto, Peel and Ottawa-Carleton, along with Toronto’s Catholic counterpart, are looking for about $4.5 billion in damages from Meta Platforms Inc., Snap Inc. and ByteDance Ltd., which operate the platforms Facebook and Instagram, Snapchat and TikTok respectively, according to separate but similar statements of claim filed Wednesday.
Saudi Arabia’s UN ambassador, Abdulaziz Alwasil, has been chosen to chair the world body’s Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) after the country’s bid for the position remained unopposed.
The choice has been slammed by rights groups, as women in Saudi Arabia itself are severely disadvantaged under law.
