Wikileaks founder Julian Assange’s extradition to the US has been approved by UK Home Secretary Priti Patel.
Mr Assange has 14 days to appeal over the decision, the Home Office said.
It said the courts found extradition would not be “incompatible with his human rights” and that while in the US “he will be treated appropriately”.
Since 2019, China has been pursuing a new concept of war, known as “intelligentized warfare.” The idea is to operationalize artificial intelligence (AI) and the use of unmanned platforms (such as drones) in a way that subdues the enemy, ultimately without having to resort to conventional “hot” warfare.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating attacks on pro-life centers and religious institutions across the United States, The Daily Wire has learned.
More than 20 pregnancy resource centers and offices of pro-life groups have been attacked or vandalized since the leak of a draft Supreme Court opinion indicating that the justices are likely to overturn Roe v. Wade, according to Catholic Vote.
I bet they arrest some Proud Boy Atom Waffens wearing MAGA hats.
Chrystia Freeland is more vexing than Justin Trudeau. This is quite a milestone. We all grant that she is smarter. But we thought he had commanded that other territory as all his own.
From the evidence to date, what should be a solemn, substantive principled hearing into the invoking of the Emergencies Act by the Trudeau government is being treated by all the relevant ministers and particularly Finance Minister Freeland, as a laugh, as some comic diversion eating up the prestigious time of so-important cabinet ministers who have so many other deeper, more powerful things to think about.
She’s the girlfriend you were happy initiated the break up with you.
Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly’s office staff did not read an e-mail that said her department was sending a representative to a Russian embassy party – missing a chance to avert an incident that has embarrassed Canada at home and abroad, two senior government sources say.
Global Affairs Canada sent the e-mail to Ms. Joly’s chief of staff, Sandra Aubé, and four other staff members before last Friday’s Russia Day embassy party informing them that deputy chief of protocol Yasemin Heinbecker would join the festivities, the sources said.
None of Ms. Joly’s senior staff read the department e-mail, because they were busy assisting Ms. Joly, who was attending the Summit of the Americas in Los Angeles, the sources said. The Globe is not identifying the officials as they were not authorized to publicly discuss the matter.
I’m not sure there’s as much to worry about as ranchers and the Alberta government think there is. Still, it’s the principle of the thing.
Ottawa wants to stick preachy new labels on the front of ground beef packages warning that the contents are unhealthy. (And Health Canada means unhealthy to eat even after it’s cooked, not just raw, which we all already know.)
But it’s barbecue season. It’s getting hot out.
The streets of Portland resemble an ‘open air drug market’ after state officials’ scheme to decriminalize hard drugs led to a surge in overdose deaths, critics claim.
Law enforcement agents say that the streets of Portland are full of homeless addicts openly buying and selling drugs and that signs of drug addiction are actually increasing statewide, Fox News reported.
Photos show the desperate situation in the liberal Pacific Northwest city, where people can be seen shooting up drugs or passed out in broad daylight.
A third American volunteer fighting in Ukraine has been reported as missing amid concerns that all three may have been captured by Russian or pro-Russian forces.
The family of the former Marine Corps officer Grady Kurpasi disclosed that he had been missing in the Kherson area since late April following the earlier disclosure that two other American military veterans had lost contact with their families.
#Ukraine: Big news from the Black Sea- the Ukrainian Navy claims to have destroyed the Russian "Vasily Bekh" rescue vessel, as it travelled to the famous Snake Island; it reportedly had a Tor-M2KM SAM system on board.

What now?
After damning numbers from Canada’s largest municipal police force proving what Black and other racialized communities have known for decades — that Toronto police have indeed used disproportionate force against them — the question now is what accountability might look like.
Ask Black Lives Matter Canada co-founder Sandy Hudson and the answer is one she and countless other community activists have been calling for for years: “Defund the police.”
Leave it to the CBC to platform a crank from the BLM scam to plug a bogus report. These are not serious people.

The findings and conclusions in the Toronto “Race and Identity” report and the Police Chief’s confession and apology will have repercussions for law enforcement agencies across Canada and the US.
Most of the “Race and Identity” report uses typical population-based benchmarks to measure racial disparities in policing data. This methodology produces predictable disparities for certain racial/ethnic groups. Any qualified academic researcher would have said that these quantitative disparities cannot be used to prove that Toronto police officers are engaged in discriminatory practices, just as the absence of racial disparities would not mean that the police are bias free. Unfortunately, the researcher hired to produce this report and the Chief of Police have incorrectly claimed that the statistical disparities found in the report prove conclusively that there is systemic racism in the Toronto Police Service.
RCMP officers descended on two properties in Quebec Thursday that are allegedly tied to a neo-Nazi terrorist group.
Quebec RCMP said on Twitter that the searches were carried out as part of an investigation targeting individuals in the province with suspected ties to Atomwaffen Division, which is listed by the federal government as a terror group.
Vancouver, Toronto among host cities for the 2026 FIFA World Cup

Three Canadian cities were on the shortlist to earn a spot hosting matches for the next World Cup.

The Al Jazeera network on Thursday showed what it claimed was the bullet that killed their reporter Shireen Abu Aqleh, who was shot dead during clashes between IDF soldiers and terrorists in Jenin last month, Ynet reports.
The network showed a 5.5 mm bullet, designed to pierce armor, and claimed it is used in an M4 rifle.
Al Jazeera said the bullet was marked in green, indicating it was IDF issued ammunition. However, Ynet noted that the Palestinian Arab gunmen use the same bullets, many of which were stolen from IDF bases.
Key statistics offered by the government in support of its use of the ArriveCAN app are “absolutely false,” according to the union that represents Canada’s border agents.
Mark Webber, president of the Customs and Immigration Union, told a House of Commons committee Wednesday that the number of people who successfully complete the ArriveCAN app prior to showing up at the border is significantly lower than what the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) claims.
The bold New York City councilwoman who confronted former mayor Bill DeBlsaio and defied overbearing vaccine mandates is now threatening to defund any schools in her district that host drag queen events for children.
“I will reiterate: Any school in my district participating in ‘drag queen’ degeneracy risks losing their funding. Adult drag performers have NO BUSINESS in our schools, and they will not be in my district. Period,” Vickie Paladino (R-Queens) tweeted Monday.
MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Two long-wanted Abu Sayyaf militant commanders accused of beheading two kidnapped Canadian tourists and a German in the southern Philippines have surrendered to authorities, officials said Friday.
Almujer Yadah and Bensito Quitino gave themselves up to military officials in Jolo town in southern Sulu province and surrendered their assault rifles, Sulu military commander Maj. Gen. Ignatius Patrimonio and other security officials said. The officials did not provide details of how and when the surrenders were arranged.
Justin will probably grant them citizenship.
