Muhammad Shareef Abdelhaleem – The Crazy Muslim Terrorist Next Door

Architect of Toronto 18 terror plot is loud and sometimes still angry — but not dangerous, he says

… He still gets upset with what’s going on in the world.

At the start of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, he grew anxious. He saw countries open wide to welcome Ukrainian refugees and wondered where that magnanimity was for Syrian refugees who are Muslim.

This time, however, he didn’t turn to an insular rank of budding militants who pumped up each other’s outrage. He spoke to his anti-violent extremism counsellors.

RCMP says recording of disputed Lucki phone call did exist but has been deleted

One of Canada’s top Mounties says there was a recording of a conference call with the RCMP commissioner that sparked concerns of political interference — but it has since been deleted.

Deputy Commissioner Brian Brennan testified Friday about the recording before the Mass Casualty Commission leading the public inquiry into the 2020 Nova Scotia mass shootings.

Brennan said Dan Brien, director of media relations with the RCMP, recorded at least some of the phone call. Brennan was also on the April 28, 2020, call with Commissioner Brenda Lucki and high-ranking Nova Scotia RCMP officers and civilian staff.

With Poilievre’s victory, some Liberal MPs hope party will pivot to the centre

Be Butch like Justin

Some Liberal MPs say the party needs to refocus as it prepares to go head-to-head against a new brand of Conservatives — including being “less woke,” according to Radio-Canada.

A handful of MPs spoke to the French-language arm of CBC — most on the condition that they not be named — as the party gathers for a caucus meeting in the coastal resort town of Saint Andrews, N.B.

The meeting is meant to underline the party’s priorities ahead of the fall sitting, which will see a new face leading His Majesty’s Loyal Opposition: Pierre Poilievre.

Collaborators with Russian forces are fleeing, say Ukrainian officials

Ukrainian citizens accused of collaborating with occupying Russian forces in Kharkiv province and the neighbouring Donbas region are fleeing from recently liberated areas and queueing to cross into Russia at the border, Ukrainian officials have said.

“The ‘commandant’s offices’, ‘prosecutor’s offices’, occupiers and gauleiters are leaving,” the governor of Luhansk province, Serhiy Haidai, wrote on Telegram. “The Ukrainian flag, which our guerrillas raised last night over the administration building in Kreminna, remains intact as the Russians now seem to have understood everything so they don’t dare to take it down. Russians and their collaborators are fleeing from Luhansk region, heading towards Russia”. Luhansk makes up the Donbas region with Donetsk to the south.

The Public Has Lost Faith in Legacy Media’s Ability to Be Objective

Long at the core of journalism, the idea that reporters must be seen to conduct their work objectively is under siege. And it is losing.

The verbal trebuchets of social justice warriors chased Bari Weiss from the New York Times. National Post staff rebelled after Rex Murphy’s column questioning institutional racism was published. The Washington Post battled reporters over social media activism. National Public Radio news staff won the right to join demonstrations. Wendy Mesley mentioned a book title out loud at the CBC and a 40-year career was demolished.

And now, even the walls of the Globe and Mail have been breached.

Nolte: Ratings Poison Jimmy Kimmel Losing to TWO Fox News Shows

In the late night ratings wars, Disney’s left-wing Jimmy Kimmel is now losing to TWO Fox News programs.

Informed people know that Fox News Channel’s Greg Gutfeld is stomping all over Late Night. This is especially extraordinary when you consider the following: Fox News is available in only about 87 million homes. Meanwhile, ABC, NBC, and CBS are broadcast channels available for free in a great majority of the more than 120 million homes with televisions.

China’s economy is slowing, its population aging. That could make it dangerous.

China’s economy is in trouble. The juggernaut that once looked bound for global domination is slowing down — and not only in the short run.

The Chinese economy’s projected growth this year has slowed to about 3%, missing the government’s target of 5.5% by an embarrassingly wide margin.

After decades of galloping expansion, that would be the second-worst performance in more than 40 years. Only 2020, with its COVID-induced recession, was worse.

Soon-to-close NHS Tavistock clinic is accused of ‘wrongly convincing gay and bisexual people they were TRANS’ in bitter legal dispute

Tavistock is the sort of criminal lunacy that Justin Trudeau supports.

The UK’s soon-to-close child gender clinic has been accused of wrongly convincing gay and bisexual people that they are trans.

London-based Tavistock Clinic was ordered to close it doors in July after a damning report found it was ‘not safe’ for children.

The clinic, which opened in the 1980s, was criticised for allegedly rushing teenagers onto life-altering puberty blocking drugs.

State Insists Chauvin Jury Was ‘Impartial,’ Mocks His Appeal

Mob rule has become the law of the land, according to the results of the George Floyd hearing.

Said Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. of the Atlanta jury that convicted Leo Frank of murdering a 13-year-old female employee in 1913, “Mob law does not become due process of law by securing the assent of a terrified jury.” Frank was Jewish. The jurors were not necessarily anti-Semitic, but they had good reason to be terrified of the mobs that were. After Georgia Gov. John Slaton commuted Frank’s sentence from death to life imprisonment, the mobs stormed the prison, abducted Frank, and hanged him. Slaton and his wife were forced to leave the state.

Wow! Twitter Green Lights Anti-Trans Movement

In the history of American social movements, September 11 may take on new significance. September 11, 2022, is the day the powers that be allowed LGBWithoutTheT to trend on Twitter. In broad daylight, lesbians and gays disassociated themselves from the transgender movement, and Twitter gave them a platform. This was a major turnaround. Just a month earlier Twitter had banned “Gays Against Groomers” for hateful conduct.”

The great Net Zero lie

Our leaders just want to take control

“Net Zero” was supposed to be a straightforward idea — one that could be achieved with a healthy dose of spreadsheet politics, shifting a few numbers from one Excel column to another. It made sense, then, when the UN delegated the job of devising it to Mark Carney, former governor of the Bank of England. And it seemed perfectly reasonable when some of the world’s biggest polluters — China, the United States, the European Union — announced a strict timeline for when they aim to be carbon neutral.
