Mexican Cartel Monkey Shot Dead In Gunfight

Monkey shot dead as Mexican cartels’ passion for exotic pets leaves bloody toll

Mexican narcos’ fascination with exotic animals has been on display this week after a spider monkey dressed up as a drug gang mascot was killed in a shootout, a 200kg tiger wandered the streets in the Pacific coast state of Nayarit, and a man died after trying to pet a captive tiger in a cartel-dominated area of western Michoacán state.

Eleven suspected gang members died in the shootout on Tuesday in the state of Mexico, which surrounds the capital. Photos from the scene showed a small monkey dressed in a tiny camouflage jacket and a tiny “bulletproof” vest sprawled across the body of a dead gunman.

Canadian MP laments anti-Israel taunts at daughter’s high school graduation

A Canadian Parliament member took to social media this week to recount an incident of anti-Semitism at her daughter’s graduation ceremony, held on the grounds of a Toronto area amusement park.

In her posting, Ya’ara Saks, MP for York Centre in Toronto, wrote: “I debated whether to share this because it was so hard, but I think it’s important to state that this happens nearly every day: Yesterday, I went to my daughter’s graduation at Wonderland. … Many of the parents there were visibly Jewish (kipot, modest dress, sheitels). As families were walking, a group of young people passed and yelled out ‘stop killing Palestinians.’

I debated whether to share this because it was so hard, but I think it’s important to state that this happens nearly every day:

She’s a Liberal MP so I don’t understand what she’s complaining about.

I’ll go out on a limb and suggest she’s likely a big proponent of mass immigration, multiculturalism and diversity and therefore has helped create a parallel society that celebrates death to infidels.

I bet she’ll call you a racist if you ask who the kids were because of course – Toronto MP thinks a Freedom Convoy term is call for Hitler

Welcome to Londonistan!

Ten years ago, “the ‘blasphemous’ film that inflamed Egypt and Libya” was:The Innocence of Muslims. To record their objections to the “movie” (a trivial YouTube trailer), 10,000 British Muslims besieged Google’s UK headquarters.
A UK cinema chain now canceled all screenings of a film about Mohammed’s daughter after branches were besieged by Muslim activists.

Cineworld has made the decision to cancel all screenings of The Lady of Heaven to “ensure the safety of staff and customers”.

A Blight on the Presidency and the Nation

The Biden administration’s executive order encouraging “affirming care” and gender transition is final confirmation that support for procedures deforming and sterilizing children goes to the top of the American power structure.

Yesterday, President Biden signed an executive order instructing his administration to examine what steps it could take to end “conversion therapy” for minors who identify as transgender.

Pro-Abortion Organization Threatens ‘Increasingly Drastic Measures’ Against Pregnancy Centers

Since the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization in December and the U.S. has awaited the Court’s decision, the abortion crowd has ratcheted up its rhetoric. The leaked draft decision has made advocates of abortion alarmingly militant.

The Elite Press Remains The Handmaid Of War

Since Russia invaded Ukraine, pro-interventionist accounts have dominated the airwaves and op-ed pages.

Far too often, the elite U.S. press has been a reliable mouthpiece for Washington’s dubious foreign policies. That was true during the Cold War, except for a brief period of disillusionment and dissent once the Vietnam War became such an obvious debacle. That period of more vigorous scrutiny and skepticism did not last long, however. When George H. W. Bush launched his drive for U.S. military intervention in the Persian Gulf to expel Iraqi forces from Kuwait, CNN, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and other elite outlets were fully on board with that agenda, as their shamelessly biased treatment of the relevant issues confirmed. That pro-interventionist bias became even more flagrant during the Balkan crises of the 1990s, the lead-up to the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003, and Washington’s subsequent campaigns for forcible regime change in Libya and Syria. There was very little daylight between the official U.S. government positions on those issues and the dominant media narratives.

Hologram Zelensky promises Ukraine will defeat ‘the empire’

Volodymyr Zelenskiy referenced Star Wars and the second world war as the Ukrainian president appeared as a hologram at a conference in Paris to seek aid from big tech firms.

He told a crowd of hundreds at the VivaTech trade show that he was offering technology firms a unique chance to rebuild Ukraine as a fully digital democracy.

He asked for help on the terms of lend-lease – the way in which the United States helped the Allies during the second world war, offering aid without payment but on the understanding that hardware would be returned.

Private Massachusetts Catholic school is EXCOMMUNICATED by local bishop for refusing to remove BLM and Pride flags after being warned both represent ideologies that ‘contradict’ church teaching

A Catholic private school in Massachusetts has been excommunicated by a local bishop after ignoring orders to remove pride and BLM flags.

The Nativity School of Worcester has been sanctioned by Robert J. McManus, the Bishop of the Diocese of Worcester, for their refusal to take them down.

He says the facility – the only tuition-free private school in the region – cannot continue to call itself Catholic while flying in the face of key church teachings.

How Dumb Is Joe Biden? Ask Him. He’ll Tell You.

We all know that Joe Biden isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed. Okay, he’s basically a spoon among knives.

While this is something we’ve all been able to recognize, perhaps what’s really shocking is that Biden seems to be aware of his lack of intelligence. He’s repeatedly conceded that the people around him are all smarter than he is.

John Ivison: Freeland’s magical spending won’t make inflation disappear

American writer Carl Sandburg once said politicians should have three hats: one for throwing into the ring, one for talking through and another to pull rabbits from.

Chrystia Freeland, having already made clear her ambition to succeed Justin Trudeau as prime minister, made good use of her other two hats in a speech on inflation to a Bay Street audience on Thursday.

Project Veritas Leaks Elon Musk‘s All-Hands Meeting with Twitter

James O’Keefe’s investigative journalism group Project Veritas has leaked a recording of Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s all-hands meeting with Twitter employees. Pressed by employees on free speech, Musk answered, “I think there’s also, there’s freedom of speech and freedom of reach, so I think people should be allowed to say…pretty outrageous things that are within the balance, the law, but, but then they don’t, you know, get amplified.”

So he’s for shadow bans?
