Two England fans dressed as knights say they were accused of being “Muslim killers” by Qatari police as FIFA announced a ban on “Crusader” fancy dress.
The two men claimed they were ordered to take off their chain mail and St George shields outside England’s first match against Iran.
Social media footage of the two men showed them being led away by Qatari security.
When I first saw the acronym “CBDC,” I may have betrayed my California roots when I thought it was some new cannabis product that will join all the other CBD products sold everywhere, including at truck stops. I’m not so naïve now, and I know that CBDC, which stands for Central Bank Digital Currency, is possibly the most dangerous idea ever bandied about in American politics.
The plan is that the federal government would end paper and coin money in favor of purely digital money—all under the government’s control. Suddenly, in addition to your bank’s ATM, you would be dependent on the federal government’s ATM for every penny you possess. It would be the Chinese social credit system and the Canadian “let’s shut down the bank accounts for anyone protesting the government” system all rolled up into one.
Ukrainian soldiers are firing thousands of shells daily, forcing the U.S. to replace gun barrels across the border in Poland.
WASHINGTON — Ukrainian troops fire thousands of explosive shells at Russian targets every day, using high-tech cannons supplied by the United States and its allies. But those weapons are burning out after months of overuse, or being damaged or destroyed in combat, and dozens have been taken off the battlefield for repairs, according to U.S. and Ukrainian officials.
A third of the roughly 350 Western-made howitzers donated to Kyiv are out of action at any given time, according to U.S. defense officials and others familiar with Ukraine’s defense needs.
From higher education to football, purity spirals are ripping through all areas of life.
Let’s discuss two of the most ostensibly baffling phenomena of our times.
One is the mania for ‘decolonising’ university courses throughout the land, a trend that is now even bizarrely impinging on mathematics and computer courses. The other is the England football team’s persistence in ‘taking the knee’, long after the summer of madness of 2020 when this gesture first took hold in Britain. England are so far the only World Cup side performing this ludicrous American import.
Sam Bankman-Fried is the ultimate expression of the most toxic culture in America.
The FTX Bitcoin empire of 30-year-old CEO Sam Bankman-Fried is in shambles. Or more specifically, his “dumb game” cryptocurrency exchange has destroyed thousands of lives. Electronically, he may have robbed perhaps a million investors, and along with them hundreds of large institutional investors.
Mysteriously, only after the conclusion of the midterm elections, did we suddenly learn that this left-wing “philanthropist” and benefactor of Democratic politics, this megadonor to the quid pro quo puff-piece media, this con artist protected from federal securities regulators, had drained off, lost, hidden, or spent billions of dollars of other people’s money.
In January 2022, vaccine exemptions for Canadian and American cross-border truckers ended, leaving about 15,000 Canadian truckers who regularly cross the border in the performance of their jobs suddenly unemployed.
Their response was heartening. Thousands of truckers joined “Freedom Convoys,” shutting down border crossings and finally ending up in the Canadian capital of Ottawa, where they virtually occupied Parliament Hill.
The dean of Trinity College said such a view was ‘legitimate’ after a row over a sermon by a student that claimed Christ had a ‘trans body’
Jesus could have been transgender, according to a University of Cambridge dean.
Dr Michael Banner, the dean of Trinity College, said such a view was “legitimate” after a row over a sermon by a Cambridge research student that claimed Christ had a “trans body”, The Telegraph can disclose.
The “truly shocking” address at last Sunday’s evensong at Trinity College chapel, saw Joshua Heath, a junior research fellow, display Renaissance and Medieval paintings of the crucifixion that depicted a side wound that the guest preacher likened to a vagina.
Supposing that you’re a Canadian who mistakenly believes you enjoy the right to bodily autonomy, the Canadian Public Health™ overlords have plans to fix you right up.
You’ll be administered psychiatric medications so you think right.
Let’s see, child sexual mutilation, crushing dissent by weaponizing mental illness, euthanasia as eugenics policy.
Yup the time seems ripe for Nuremberg 2.0 begging the question why so many Mini- Mengele’s?
Following the publication of worrisome information regarding a Chinese secret campaign to interfere with the 2019 federal elections, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has chosen to stonewall and make this a partisan issue. Considering the importance of what was first reported by Global News, Canadians have the right to honest and thorough answers.

Aid to Ukrainian forces is achieving more than the long U.S. intervention in Afghanistan did.
American military aid to Ukraine has been remarkably effective, especially in comparison with the long, ill-fated U.S. military intervention in Afghanistan. A recent statement by General Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, helps explain why. “Ukrainians are not asking for anyone to fight for them,” Milley said. “They don’t want American soldiers, or British, or German, or French, or anybody else to fight for them. They will fight for themselves.” The Ukrainians want only the means to defend themselves against Russian invaders, he said, adding that the United States would provide support “for as long as it takes.” By providing advanced weaponry and reliable intelligence, the United States and its allies have allowed Ukraine to inflict large losses on Russian armed forces and roll back earlier Russian territorial gains.
The Afghanistan Grift was a long con that maimed & murdered soldiers for enormous profits. Why “Win” when the cash flows?
Aid to Ukraine Explained in Six Charts – November 18, 2022
U.S. aid to Ukraine totals $68 billion, and the White House has just asked Congress for another $37.7 billion. In the spring, the new Congress will consider aid in the context of the administration’s proposed FY 2024 budget. With these decisions ahead, it is worth reviewing how much aid there has been, what that aid does, and what the administration is requesting. Such a review turns up some surprises and will help clarify discussions about future aid packages.
Comedians in Canada are finding it increasingly harder to get gigs, with some saying they have encountered backlash, threats, and cancelled shows due to their approach to making people laugh.
Lizzy Stanton is a Vancouver-based stand-up comic who claims her jokes have gotten her banned from most venues because many owners and managers don’t want to risk offending their audiences, and fellow comedians refuse to be booked alongside her.
I don’t think of Canada when I think of comedy any more.
SCTV would not be allowed to happen today.
What comes to mind is a vision of some unfunny unwatchable woke scold propped up by tax dollars.
With Democrats in complete control of Colorado government, any legislative response to the mass murder at the Q nightclub in Colorado Springs is likely to feature a heaping helping of new restrictions on gun owners as well as revisions and expansions to some of the existing gun laws already on the books in the state.
Early on in the Covid-19 pandemic, Dr. Anthony Fauci and his Democrat constitutes attempted damage control when news started to break that the virus originated from a Wuhan lab leak.
It has been nearly a year since nuclear negotiations with Iran stalled; since then, the Biden administration appears to be sitting idly by watching the ruling mullahs advance their nuclear weapons program.
The mullahs are freely expanding it, now enriching uranium to nearly weapons-grade level. Iran is also seeking assistance from its ally, Russia, to bolster its nuclear program, according to the US intelligence officials.
