Republican members of Congress said Tuesday they want to dismantle the FBI or “clean house” at the Department of Justice after agents raided the Florida estate of former President Donald Trump.
“This is Gestapo crap and it will not stand. The Department of Injustice needs to be cleaned out if they are going to start pretending we are some kind of banana republic,” Rep. Lauren Boebert, Colorado Republican, said in a Twitter video.
More than two years on, the best scientific evidence says that masks don’t stop Covid—and public health officials continue to ignore it.
Masks are back in San Diego, California, where the school board has just decreed that students must cover their faces or be barred from setting foot inside a classroom. Never mind that, per CDC statistics and Census Bureau population figures, more than 99.99 percent of children in California (where governor Gavin Newsom has regularly imposed mask mandates) and more than 99.99 percent of children in Florida (where Governor Ron DeSantis has let kids live mask-free) have not died of Covid—either because they haven’t gotten it, or because they’ve gotten it and survived it. Never mind that more than 99.99 percent of kids nationally have not died of Covid, either. And never mind that, again, based on CDC statistics, those over age 85 have had more than 2,000 times the chance of dying of Covid as those under age 18; that even those in their thirties have had 25 times the chance of dying of Covid as those under 18; and that, out of every 40 school-age kids (ages 5-17) who have died during the Covid era, only one of those deaths has involved Covid. Regardless, school officials have decided that everyone must mask up.
Man known as ‘Putin’s chef’ touring jails looking for physically fit murderers and thieves, offering presidential pardons and a salary
The Kremlin insider known as “Putin’s chef” personally toured Russian prisons to recruit 1,000 convicts to fight for his Wagner Group of mercenaries in Ukraine, a Russian opposition website has reported.
Together with the charity Russian Sitting which supports families of convicts, the Verstka news website said that the Wagner Group had persuaded up to 1,000 Russian criminals from 17 prisons to sign up to fight in Ukraine in return for a salary and a presidential pardon.

Canada’s top soldier is declining to confirm media reports that Canadian military members are on the ground in Ukraine to train locals in fighting invading Russian forces.
Gen. Wayne Eyre, Canada’s chief of the defence staff, appeared on Power & Politics on Monday following reports from Global News and the New York Times that Canadian Forces special operations members are training Ukrainians during Russian’s ongoing invasion.
But when asked about the reports, Eyre said the military is “never going to talk about discreet or sensitive special operations or confirm or deny them.”
FBI agents were sent into Donald Trump’s home over a quibble about documents?
Donald Trump announced Monday night that the FBI had raided his home in Mar-a-Lago, marking the greatest escalation to date of the political persecution of the former president. One would assume the bar should be exceedingly high for the Department of Justice to execute a search warrant on a man who was previously the leader of the free world. That is not the case here. Nor, sadly, is it surprising, given the seemingly endless fishing expedition that Biden and the Democrats have subjected Trump to over the past year and a half.
Details Emerge About What FBI Agents Were Searching For In Raid On Trump Home, Report Says
Agents with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) executed a search warrant Monday at the Florida home of former President Donald Trump that appeared to be connected to classified material that was allegedly at the home.
The investigation is “focused on material that Trump had brought with him to Mar-a-Lago, his private club and residence, after he left the White House,” The New York Times reported. “Those boxes contained many pages of classified documents.”

Britain’s woke police forces have suffered a fresh blow to their credibility as statistics show close to nine in ten neighbourhoods where thefts have been reported have seen precisely zero solved.
Leader of the People’s Party of Canada Maxime Bernier said the Conservative Party of Canada is “infiltrated” by the “woke far left,” after blasting the party’s President for using so-called “trans-inclusive” pronouns in his Twitter bio.
“This woke guy with pronouns in his bio is the president of the Conservative Party of Canada. Still wondering why I left this morally and intellectually corrupt party?,” tweeted Bernier yesterday.
The president of the CPC Rob Batherson’s Twitter bio reads, “Business person, community volunteer, husband, father, son (he/him).”
Well that’s settles it not voting the CPC next election.
Long before the pandemic hit, the myth of “free” Canadian health care gave us one of the most expensive health-care systems, with some of the longest medical wait times in the developed world, with mediocre outcomes judged by international standards.
The director of the University of Toronto’s Citizen Lab says spyware is “like a wiretap on steroids,” and it requires more oversight and a much higher threshold for use than traditional wiretaps.
Ron Diebert will speak to the House of Commons ethics committee as part of its probe into the RCMP‘s use of spyware in 32 investigations in the last five years.
Former President Donald Trump said Monday evening his home had been raided by a “large group of FBI agents.”
“Nothing like this has ever happened to a president of the United States before,” Trump said in a statement. “After working and cooperating with the relevant government agencies, this unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate.”
OTTAWA — Canada’s Federal Court needs information the government claims is secret to properly review whether the first use of the Emergencies Act — to end the so-called “Freedom Convoy” protests this winter — violated constitutional rights, civil liberties groups say.
The groups made their case before Justice Richard Mosley on Monday, while the federal government responded that the information they seek falls under the established principle of cabinet confidentiality. A government lawyer described one group’s efforts to obtain documents as a “classic fishing expedition” based on speculation.
Hoards of angry Donald Trump supporters descended on his Mar-a-Lago home last night shortly after it emerged that the FBI was searching the former President’s estate as part of an investigation into whether he took classified records from the White House to the Florida residence.
Trump, disclosing the search in a lengthy statement, asserted that agents had opened up a safe at his home and described their work as an ‘unannounced raid’ that he likened to ‘prosecutorial misconduct.’
The raid on Trump’s home represents a dramatic and unprecedented escalation of law enforcement scrutiny of the former president.
Ever wondered how bad your favourite foods are for the environment?
Well now Oxford-led scientists have provided a little glimpse after creating ‘impact scores’ for 57,000 food and drink products in the UK and Ireland.
It’s bad news for meat eaters as beef and lamb top the list of worst foods for the environment, while energy drinks are among the best.
The beauty of climate change, if you’re a wannabe totalitarian, is that, because carbon is one of the building blocks of life, if you control carbon, you control everything. To understand how this works, you must pay attention to what is happening in the Netherlands, where the government is planning to seize 20% of livestock farms, all in the name of climate change.
