Elon Musk teases release of bombshell Fauci Files in this week’s Twitter document dump

Elon Musk has teased the release of bombshell Twitter files related to the now ex-director of the Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Dr Anthony Fauci, this week, as part of what he calls the ‘Fauci Files.

On Sunday, the Twitter CEO tweeted to his followers: ‘Hope you’re having a great day 1 2023! One thing’s for sure, it won’t be boring.’

Then, Juanita Broaddrick, an 80-year-old former nursing home administrator who once alleged that she was raped by ex-U.S. President Bill Clinton in 1978, replied to Musk’s tweet, saying that she’s waiting…for #FauciFiles.’

Canadian Gov Funds Report Attacking David Horowitz Freedom Center – Condemning calls to murder Jews is “Islamophobia”, report claims.

An imam prayed, “O Allah! Count their number; slay them one by one and spare not one of them”. A new report funded by the Canadian government claims that his critics are Islamophobes. The targets of the report include the David Horowitz Freedom Center.

The Canadian Islamophobia Industry Research Project, funded by a grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, was set up to “create profiles of key public, media and political figures as well as organizations who produce and distribute Islamophobic ideologies and propaganda”.

‘Hundreds’ killed as Ukrainian Himars flatten Russian barracks in one of war’s deadliest strikes

A Ukrainian Himars attack on a town in Russia-held eastern Ukraine flattened completely destroyed a vast building holding several hundred Russian mobilised men inside.

Early estimates from Kyiv and from pro-Russian sources suggest the New Year’s Eve attack on the barracks in Makiivka could be Russia’s single biggest loss of life since the start of the invasion last February.

The Ukrainian military on Monday mocked Russia over the attack on a former school building in Makiivka, a suburb of Donetsk, attributing it to “smoking in inappropriate places” and claiming that it killed “about 400” people.

Remembering when gun control was at least remotely rational

A curious mutation in gun control activism occurred during the last few decades, whence began a fixation on something dubbed the “assault rifle.”

Never mind that an assault rifle, insofar as the designation was ever at all valid, had always referenced a weapon with a “select fire” feature allowing three types of operation: semi-automatic, fully-automatic or in three-shot bursts.

The five ultra-woke economists who’ll decide Californian reparations

The five economists who will determine just how much the state will pay black Californians for historic injustices include a professor who has called for nationwide reparations of up to $14trillion.

Other members of the expert panel advising California’s Reparations Task Force on what they believe would be a fair amount repaid to the descendants of racial discrimination have said there is no such thing as a black middle class and argued the plight of Native Americans is ‘irrelevant.’

Woke professors William Spriggs, Thomas Craemer, Kaycea Campbell, William A ‘Sandy’ Darity Jr and his wife, lecturer Kirstin Mullen, are charged with quantifying the past economic injustices African Americans faced and determining how much compensation black Californians should receive for those crimes.

How the marijuana ‘green rush’ fell apart

A cannabis glut in several states has depressed prices for legal pot, pushing small businesses into turmoil.

It wasn’t always Josh Keats’s job to drive the tractor.

The co-founder of Henry’s Original once had a small crew to farm his 7-plus acres of cannabis from his base in Northern California’s Emerald Triangle. But on this fall day, it’s Keats operating the heavy machinery, trundling down rows of rich green stalks, because he had to let go two-thirds of his staff to stay afloat.

Yet, he’s grateful. Other weed growers, processors and retailers have had to make more painful cuts — or have folded altogether. “We are witnessing massive insolvency,” Keats said, “especially on the West Coast.”

What if the USSR hadn’t collapsed? History isn’t always on your side

Even if you care nothing for ballet, the very name of the Bolshoi Theatre carries a romance and glamour unmatched by any other theatre in the world. The company was founded under Catherine the Great, and first held performances in a private home before its famous white neoclassical building was opened in 1825. But it was under the Soviet Union that its international prestige reached its greatest height, as it became a touring advertisement for the virtues of the Communist system. When the Bolshoi first visited London in 1956, the excitement was such that people began queuing three days before the ticket office even opened. Three years later, when the company visited New York, touts were reportedly selling tickets for $1,200 in today’s money. Not even the Wolverhampton Grand can compete with that.

Let’s take a look at antisemitism in New York City

The numbers are staggering and it is no surprise to see the makeup of the perpetrators. When will Jewish organizations wake up?

64% of Assaults on NY Jews Were Carried out by Blacks.

17% of Assaults on NY Jews Were Carried out by Muslims.

10% of Assaults on NY Jews were Carried out by Hispanics.

Only 3% were carried out by Whites.

And yet, in a growing display of woke delusion, major American Jewish organizations have been bending over backward protecting the very sectors of American society that contain the vast majority of anti-Jewish hate criminals.

Reporting Vignettes From the Past Year in Canada

Last December, I visited Curve Lake First Nation near Peterborough, Ontario, to interview Chief Emily Whetung about the water access crisis in her community. Curve Lake was one of three lead plaintiffs in a class-action lawsuit, settled that month, that claimed Canada breached its legal obligations to First Nations for failing to ensure access to safe drinking water on reserves.

Almost one year after that, I traveled to a remote community called North Spirit Lake First Nation to continue reporting about the enduring boil water advisories on many Indigenous reserves.

Harry’s tell-all memoir won’t spare William

 

The Duke of Sussex’s impending book is expected to go easy on his father, the King, but may sour his troubled relationship with his brother for ever

Spare is the story of a troubled young prince estranged from his family, ghostwritten by an author known for his expertise in fraught father-son relationships.

But the Duke of Sussex’s memoir is expected to let the King off lightly — and focus more on his frosty relationship with the Prince of Wales.

A source with knowledge of the book, which will be published on January 10, told The Sunday Times they did not see how the brothers’ relationship could ever recover.
