To Democrats and their partners in the corporate media and Department of Justice, everything is about maintaining a narrative, and there’s no better example of this than their disparate reactions to the March Nashville shooting and this week’s Texas shooting.
Devon Archer, the former business partner of Hunter Biden, is being pushed by friends to spill any dirt he has on the first family to avoid jail time.
Last year, Archer was sentenced to a year and a day in prison for swindling the financially-strapped Oglala Sioux Indian tribe out of more than $60 million.
That business deal was unrelated to the ventures Archer had with the first son.
A significant minority want to extend the assisted dying programme
Over a quarter of Canadians believe that people should have access to euthanasia because of poverty, a new survey has found.
Currently, Canada’s federal guidelines for medical assistance in dying include having a grievous and irremediable medical condition, making a voluntary request for medical assistance in dying that is not the result of outside pressure or influence, and giving informed consent to receive medical assistance in dying.
Motions introduced Monday into the House of Commons on the government’s controversial firearms bill are engineered to limit debate and force it through the house, Conservative MPs allege.
Speaking to reporters outside of the House on Monday, Conservative Public Safety Critic Raquel Dancho said the motion was meant to move along the Trudeau Liberals’ stalled Bill C-21 and it wouldn’t have been introduced without help from the NDP.
International students face glaring food insecurity and a lack of ethnic food
When Shruti Nadkarni arrived from India to pursue her PhD at the University of Guelph, she spent her first month here living off a diet primarily made up of bread and mayonnaise, losing a dangerous amount of weight in the process.
As a graduate student, she came with funding in her pocket. But as an international student, she wasn’t familiar with the local cuisine, and was shocked by how expensive it was.
“In my country, you can get vegetables anywhere. And you can bargain and reduce the prices,” Nadkarni said. “So it’s easily available, it’s so accessible, and it’s way cheaper.”
The Twitter Files gave us a window into how government agencies, civil society, and tech companies work together to censor social media users. Now, key nations are attempting to enshrine this coordination into law explicitly.
Around the world, politicians have either just passed or are on the cusp of passing sweeping new laws, which would allow governments to censor ordinary citizens on social media and other Internet platforms.

We are witnessing the process of demographic crisis in its early stages
Cassava is a woody shrub native to South America. For people living in drought-prone tropical regions, it is a godsend: delicious, calorie-dense and highly productive. The indigenous peoples of the Americas who first cultivated cassava are reliant on it and have developed an arduous, days-long process of preparation that involves scraping, grating, washing and boiling the plant before it is eaten.

The man suspected of killing eight and wounding seven at an outlet mall in a suburb of Dallas, Texas, sought to enter the U.S. Army years ago but was “terminated” after three months before exiting entry training, the Pentagon has confirmed.

Officials confirmed Monday that Garcia had been “terminated” from the Army.

The policy has long faced fierce criticism from immigration advocates and some Democrats who believed it prevented many asylum seekers from coming into the country.
Republicans have argued that the policy should remain in place to stop illegal border crossings, fuelling an increasingly intense and politicised immigration debate ahead of the 2024 election.

The death on May 1 in an Israeli prison of Khader Adnan, a senior member of the Iranian-backed Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) organization, has received worldwide coverage in major media outlets, including CNN, BBC, The Guardian, Reuters, and The New York Times.
Meanwhile, two Palestinian men detained by the Islamist organization Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip, died after a supposed unexpected “deterioration” in their health conditions in just the past month.
Missed connections of the third kind.
Given the ever-growing vastness of the universe, it remains difficult to imagine there has never been an official recorded account of extraterrestrial life attempting to contact Earth.
The idea that the human race is the only intelligent life in the universe can be frightening — and statistically seems unfathomable — but despite countless efforts to reach other beings, humanity has been left unanswered.

OTTAWA – The Liberal government is expelling Chinese diplomat Zhao Wei, whom Canada’s spy agency alleged was involved in a plot to intimidate Conservative MP Michael Chong and his relatives in Hong Kong.
