Revealed: Clintonworld takeover of Black Lives Matter

Black Lives Matter filings reveal prominent Democratic lawyer Marc Elias and another longtime ally of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have taken on key roles in the charity amid scrutiny over its leadership and finances.

Elias, best known for his funding of British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s discredited anti-Trump dossier while he served as Clinton’s 2016 campaign general counsel, appears to be representing the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation through his recently formed Elias Law Group. BLM’s national organization repeatedly lists the Elias firm as one of its addresses and states in its short-year 2020 Form 990 that its books were now in the care of the Elias Law Group.

Rex Murphy: Trudeau’s monumentally misguided emergency measures are an insult to Canadians

This is the most monumentally stupid, monumentally arrogant, and monumentally misguided decision by a prime minister since 1867.

When Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in his sophomoric musings on the nature of Canada some years back, famously declared that Canada has “no core identity,” most of us thought he was stating his opinion, however ridiculous, of the country as he saw it at the time.

We were wrong, ever so wrong. He was stating an ambition. He was declaring a goal.

Canada’s first convicted terrorist deemed too dangerous for parole

The first Canadian convicted under anti-terrorism laws enacted after the 9/11 attacks has lost his bid for release after the Parole Board ruled he wasn’t ready to leave prison.

The decision followed a hearing at which Mohammad Momin Khawaja struggled to explain how he had reformed since he was arrested when police disrupted a 2004 bomb plot.

He also appeared to downplay his actions, claiming he thought at the time that he was supporting a “good cause,” and was simply responding to “social injustice” and “suffering.”

He should have said he did it for Black Live Matters. He would get money from Justin.

Why Trudeau’s fake ‘temporary’ state of emergency is a dangerous sign

A future in which special powers are invoked for fake emergencies is one in which freedom cannot be said to exist

There are few things as freeing as an emergency. There are also few things as dangerous as an emergency.

For two years now, to varying degrees the people of the United States and Canada have been living under emergency rules. On Monday, in Ottawa, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau introduced a new state of national emergency, not because of COVID this time, but because of the supposed threat posed by truckers protesting COVID restrictions.

Canada‘s Justice Minister: Trump Supporters Could Have Accounts Frozen

Canada’s Justice Minister, David Lametti, has told Trump supporters who donated to the “Freedom Convoy” to “be worried” about having their bank accounts frozen.

Speaking with CTV News, when Lametti was asked if regular citizens who donated to the “Freedom Convoy” protests in opposition to the vaccine mandates should be worried about having their assets frozen by the government, Lametti singled out pro-Trumpers.

When foreign money helped Trudeau win elections he didn’t care but now he’s going after the truckers

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is obsessed with the money donated through crowdfunding sources to the truckers protesting cross-border vaccine mandates.

Trudeau has repeatedly expressed his concern about foreign money — mostly from the U.S. — supporting the trucker convoy. In just a few weeks, first through GoFundMe and then through GiveSendGo, supporters pitched in more than $10 million and then $8.4 million to the anti-vaccine mandate protest.

Trend shows ‘material increase’ in PPC support: Nanos

Nanos Research numbers show a continuing rise in support for the People’s Party of Canada — a trend that began in the summer before the 2021 federal election.

On the latest episode of Trend Line, Nanos Research’s Nik Nanos said that the percentage of Canadians polled who would consider voting for the People’s Party of Canada (PPC) usually sits at around 10 per cent. But as of Feb. 16, that number has gone up to 16 per cent, which Nanos calls a “material increase.”

The PPC is a better bet than the atrophied mainstream parties.

Increased police presence in downtown Ottawa after convoy protesters warned to leave

Boy does this sound familiar: Winnipeg General Strike 1919. The Citizens’ Committee of 1,000 quickly formed to organize opposition to the strike. It included Winnipeg’s most influential business leaders and politicians. This committee did not seriously consider the strikers’ demands. It called the strike a revolutionary plot led by a small group of “alien scum.” Winnipeg’s leading newspapers took this view, too. In reality, there was little evidence that the strike was started by Bolsheviks and immigrants from eastern Europe. But the Citizens’ Committee used these unproven charges to block any efforts to appease workers.

New fencing has been erected on the Parliament Hill side of Wellington Street, right next to where ‘Freedom Convoy’ demonstrators have been camped out for three weeks.

It’s the latest sign that police action to break up the downtown Ottawa occupation could be imminent. On Wednesday, police handed out notices to demonstrators warning them to leave the area or face arrest.

Groups of Ottawa police officers could be seen arriving downtown Thursday morning in the vicinity of the protest red zone.

RCMP identify dozens of financial, crypto accounts tied to convoy protests

 

… A letter sent to banks names fewer than 20 people the national police service has identified as being involved in illegal acts related to the demonstrations, according to a source who has reviewed the document. It describes the RCMP’s “first disclosure of information” to financial institutions and includes pictures and summaries with details about the people, some of whom are identified as main organizers of the protests.

The Globe and Mail is not identifying the source because they are not authorized to discuss correspondence with the RCMP.

A separate letter to several cryptocurrency exchanges obtained by The Globe notes that the RCMP and the Ontario Provincial Police are investigating cryptocurrency donations in relation to illegal acts falling under the scope of the Emergencies Act.

Justin Trudeau is reprimanded in Parliament for accusing Jewish Conservative Party MP of standing ‘with people who wave swastikas’

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau sparked anger on Wednesday when he accused a Jewish MP of ‘standing with people who wave swastikas’ after she criticized his handling of the Freedom Convoy truckers’ anti-vaccine protests.

Melissa Lantsman, a 37-year-old Conservative MP for the Toronto suburb of Thornhill, confronted the prime minister in Parliament about the draconian Emergency Act, which he invoked on Monday for the first time in 50 years in a bid to end 19 days of chaos.

Trudeau responded with scorn to her complaints, saying: ‘Conservative Party members can stand with people who wave swastikas, they can stand with people who wave the confederate flag.

Canadian Martial Law: Trudeau Redux

Canadians who are old enough to remember when Justin Trudeau was born will recall that at the time his father, Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, explained to the fawning press that he had named his newborn son Justin because — wait for it — Justice. And throughout his life, JT has tried to live up to that name by always making it about Just-him.
