Conservatives are ‘stoking anger’, says lying Asshat whose policies were really responsible for tide of national resentment

Conservatives are ‘stoking anger’, Trudeau says, following massive cabinet makeover

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tried to paint a clear choice between himself and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre in Newfoundland on Thursday one day after the Liberals overhauled their front bench and assigned 23 cabinet ministers new portfolios.

Mr. Trudeau’s cabinet shakeup is taking place at time when the Liberals have been losing ground to Conservatives in a number of public opinion polls and while Liberal insiders say a shakeup was clearly needed just two years shy of the last federal election. When he unveiled his cabinet, the Prime Minister did not say the changes were as a result of internal issues. Instead, the Liberals are promising a greater focus on the economy and housing.

Jill Biden’s ex-husband claims ‘Biden crime family’ has targeted him for years

First lady Dr. Jill Biden’s ex-husband slammed the so-called “Biden crime family” in a new interview — and claimed the powerful brood is targeting former President Donald Trump the same way they bullied him during his divorce almost 50 years ago.

“Frankie Biden of the Biden crime family comes up to me and he goes, ‘Give her the house or you’re going to have serious problems,’” Bill Stevenson told Newsmax’s Greg Kelly Wednesday night of the moment President Biden’s brother Frank allegedly approached him when he and Jill divorced in the mid-1970s.

Nasty woman.

The troubles for Trudeau that explain his huge cabinet shakeup

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the big shakeup of his federal cabinet on Wednesday was about bringing “fresh energy” to focus his government’s attention on the affordability problems Canadians are facing.

But the shuffle — the biggest since coming to power in 2015 — is being seen by some as an end of the Liberals’ sunny days of yore. Here are four problems that are facing Trudeau that potentially played a role in the cabinet renovation.

GOLDSTEIN: Canada’s ‘free’ health-care system is broken

While health care is the primary concern of Canadians save for the rising cost of living, according to an Abacus Data poll released Wednesday, the issue appeared to get short shrift in Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s cabinet shuffle.

What would you expect from a system already stressed prior to the criminally negligent import of millions of migrants?

The First Smart Gun Is Finally Coming to Market. Will Anyone Buy It?

Sasha Wiesen sleeps with a .40-caliber handgun in a safe by his bed. The commercial real-estate broker from Florida recently preordered a new type of firearm he hopes will make the safe unnecessary.

The new weapon is the Colorado startup Biofire’s 9mm Smart Gun, which can only be fired if it recognizes an authorized user with a fingerprint reader on the grip or a facial recognition camera on the back.

Diversity Programs Miss the Point of a Liberal College Education

Academia is in the midst of a generational turmoil. Blue states such as California and Oregon have recently transformed their public universities with expansive “diversity, equity and inclusion” programs that have profound implications for admissions, speech, hiring and scholarship. Red states such as Florida and Texas have recently passed legislation abolishing them, concluding that the programs that have sprung up to execute D.E.I. promote a stifling orthodoxy that undermines the pursuit of truth.

Ukraine war: Western armour struggles against Russian defences

The general in charge of Ukraine’s stuttering counter-offensive in the south has said Russian defences are making it difficult for military equipment, including Western tanks and armoured vehicles, to move forward.

Gen Oleksandr Tarnavskyi says his forces are struggling to overcome multi-layered minefields and fortified defensive lines.

“That is why most of the tasks have to be performed by troops.”

He says Russia’s military has displayed “professional qualities” by preventing Ukrainian forces from “advancing quickly”.

Out of Outrage: Where is the U.S. Response?

After years watching both major political parties in America foster public outrage to advance their political goals, someone recently commented that he was “out of outrage” — totally over it.

Polling by Pew Research shows that he may not be alone. Nearly 40% of Americans say they wish they had more political parties to choose from, with that number rising to nearly 50% among younger Americans. Favorable views of either party come in approximately at a paltry 40%.

Sweden’s prime minister is concerned about a new wave of applications to burn religious books

Iraqis vow to murder Swedish PM Ulf Kristersson to show that Islam is non-violent.

STOCKHOLM (AP) — Sweden’s prime minister said Thursday that police have received several permit applications for the burning of religious texts in the country next week, and that he fears this may escalate tensions further with the Muslim world.

Ontario mother, daughter briefly locked in Tesla when battery fails

An Ontario mother said she and her nine-year-old daughter got locked into their Tesla when the battery failed earlier this month.

“My husband wasn’t able to open the door from the outside, the screen completely shut down and I wasn’t able to open the door from the inside, the windows or anything,” Raeshu Singh of Burlington, Ont. said.

… Singh said she eventually remembered the way to manually unlatch the doors if the battery dies, which is by pulling up on a manual emergency latch that is located beneath the window controls.

I bet she’s real proud of saving the planet though.

There are around 19,000 people employed by the company in the US, meaning approximately 380 staff are set to lose their jobs.

Skank mocks people claiming Toronto principal’s suicide connected to diversity training

Canadian freelance journalist Nora Loreto said former Toronto District School Board (TDSB) principal Richard Bilkszto’s suicide “makes me think of someone I knew whose ex-boyfriend blamed her for his suicide in his suicide note.”

“Blaming Kike Ojo-Thompson for Richard Bilkszto’s suicide for a single interaction in an anti-racism training is completely f*cked,” said Loreto in a Tuesday tweet.

As e-bikes proliferate, so do deadly fires blamed on exploding lithium-ion batteries

NEW YORK (AP) — The explosion early on a June morning ignited a blaze that engulfed a New York City shop filled with motorized bicycles and their volatile lithium-ion batteries. Billowing smoke quickly killed four people asleep in apartments above the burning store.

As the ubiquity of e-bikes has grown, so has the frequency of fires and deaths blamed on the batteries that power them — sparking a push to better regulate how the batteries are manufactured, sold, reconditioned, charged and stored.

Consumer advocates and fire departments, particularly in New York City, are urging the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission to establish national safety standards and confiscate imports that don’t comply with regulations at the border, so unsafe e-bikes and poorly manufactured batteries can be taken off the streets and out of homes.
