Boston University professor Ibram X. Kendi — a leading proponent of Critical Race Theory (CRT) — posted and later deleted a tweet that accidentally refuted the entire left-wing ideology.
On Friday evening, Kendi shared an article from The Hill noting that many white students applying to college falsely claim that they belong to racial minority groups — specifically, “to improve their chances of getting accepted” or “get minority-focused financial aid.”
In the manner of a terrorist organization accepting responsibility for an atrocious attack on civilians, the Lincoln Project and a Democratic operative claimed credit for a bizarre performance of neo-Nazi cosplay on Friday as the Virginia gubernatorial race enters its final stretch.
Speculation swirled almost immediately after an NBC News reporter on Friday posted a photo of five dispirited young people, dressed in white shirts and khakis, holding tiki torches in front of Republican candidate Glenn Youngkin’s campaign bus in Charlottesville, Va. One of the “white supremacists” was an African American.
A teacher at Parkdale Collegiate Institute is under investigation after he came to class Friday wearing blackface as part of a Halloween costume.
In a letter sent Saturday night to parents and students of Parkdale Collegiate Institute — and shared with the Star — principal Julie Ardell called the incident “racist and dehumanizing.”
“As you know, many staff and students were dressed up for Halloween, but late in the morning, a number of students alerted the Vice Principal that a white staff member was in ‘Blackface,’” she wrote.
The British Army looks to be recruiting Muslim women by conducting ‘boot camps’ to give them a taste of the military life – at a time when the armed forces have been accused of “failing to protect” female recruits from harassment.
Earlier this week, a video of the camp was broadcast on the BBC’s Asian Network. The roughly two-minute clip, which has also been shared on social media, featured three Muslim women from the city of Bradford being “put through their paces – army style” on an assault course.
… While Major Kate Hannaford from the Royal Artillery noted that “different people who think in different ways” were needed to build “the army of the future,” women apparently make up only a “tiny fraction” of an estimated 450-500 Muslim soldiers in the army.
500 Muslims in total in the UK’s armed forces from a total Islamist population of over 3 million, roughly 5.9 per cent of the UK’s total population. That says something about where loyalty lies. But yea go ahead and train them. They may regret that when numbers hit 10%.
Steven Guilbeault’s first environmental protest took place when he was around five years old, in his hometown of La Tuque, Que.
He lived in a house that backed onto a forest where he used to play, and one day he saw developers removing trees. Panicked, he ran inside to his mother and asked what he should do; she responded that if he climbed a tree, they couldn’t cut it down.
September 16. Éric Zemmour’s new book, France Has Not Yet Said Her Last Word, immediately book becomes a bestseller. Two of his previous books, The French Suicide and A Five-Year Term for Nothing: Chronicles of the War of Civilizations, sold more than 500,000 copies, a high number for non-fiction in France. He is an exception. All authors who write of immigration and Islam without political correctness have been ostracized by the media for years. Not Zemmour. Each time he was fired by radio and television stations, another one hired him. As the last politically incorrect talk show host, his audience consists of people weary of political correctness. He has been dragged into court countless times and ordered to pay high fines, presumably to force him to be quiet. He has paid the fines but would not be quiet.
China is using a whole-of-society approach to steal its way to become a military power, and the U.S. government needs to better defend against such an espionage campaign, said a retired CIA officer.
“U.S. security officials estimate that the Chinese steal between $300 billion and $600 billion a year in U.S. intellectual property, research and development, information and technology,” David Sauer told The Epoch Times’ sister media NTD in an interview on Oct 29.
The United States has not been the only target. Sauer said China’s espionage campaign has also targeted the European Union, South Korea, and Japan, and the campaign began around 2000 to 2001.
The Duke of York’s accuser has had her “lurid” sexual abuse claims challenged for the first time, a source close to him said on Saturday, as his lawyers accused her of trying to secure “another payday at his expense” with her lawsuit.
In a furious rebuttal of the “threadbare” complaint made by Virginia Roberts Giuffre, the Duke’s legal team suggested she was motivated solely by greed and had been emboldened to “cobble together” a claim against him after making millions of dollars from others in similar circumstances.
They said she had profited from her association with Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender, for years and was willing to “milk the publicity” for all she could but had failed to keep her stories straight.
Coronavirus was not designed as a biological weapon but could have leaked from a Chinese lab, according to a declassified report from US intelligence.
The Office of the US Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) said the lab leak or animal-to-human transmission were both plausible explanations for how coronavirus first infected humans.
DISTROSCALE
The report, which China branded a “farce”, said agencies may never be able to identify the source of the pandemic but dismissed accusations that coronavirus was developed as a bioweapon.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau heads into the world’s largest annual meeting on climate change this week in Glasgow, Scotland armed with his commitment to spend more than $100 billion fighting climate change, including almost $8 billion in climate-related foreign aid to developing nations.
OTTAWA — Conservative Leader Erin O’Toole should show leadership on mandatory vaccinations and show any of his unvaccinated MPs the door, says former prime minister and Conservative leader Brian Mulroney.
Mulroney said that if he was the leader today, he would require all of his MPs to roll up their sleeves and receive the COVID-19 vaccine, calling it a “no-brainer.”
Knives are out it seems. O’Toole is just fine as leader of the newly scrubbed notreallyconservative party. They should leave him in place. Attempting to pretend the CPC are “born again conservatives” by ousting O’Toole just won’t play any longer.

Debate grows over mandatory COVID-19 vaccines for children
With the first COVID-19 vaccine for children under 12 expected to be authorized in Canada soon, there is growing debate among health officials and experts over whether kids should be subject to mandatory vaccination policies, and whether they should be able to claim non-medical exemptions.
There is clear consensus in the medical community that any COVID-19 vaccine approved for children under 12 in Canada would be safe and effective, but some officials have advocated for delaying making inoculation a condition of going to school.

Alec Baldwin has spoken out in public for the first time since he accidentally shot dead cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on a film set earlier this month, saying “she was my friend”.
Speaking to reporters, the actor said he would be in favour of limiting the future use of firearms on film productions to protect peoples’ safety.
He said the police had ordered him not to discuss the ongoing investigation.
Prosecutors say they have not ruled out filing criminal charges over the case.

Hilaria Baldwin, Alec’s fake Spanish wife, fears Alec will develop fake PTSD after tragic shooting of Halyna Hutchins
For the first time since 2018, more Americans now oppose the Black Lives Matter movement than support it.
Researchers Civiqs have been tracking public opinion on the activist group every week since 2017, interviewing a total of 278,076 adults across the country. For most of that period BLM has enjoyed majority support. It reached peak popularity (53% support, 28% against) immediately after the killing of George Floyd in June 2020, but has been drifting downwards ever since. Crossover was reached this week, with 44% of the American public opposed to BLM, and 43% in favour.
Washington, D.C. is the biggest home of lies and word games in the known cosmos.
In D.C., a seven-trillion-dollar punch in your wallet costs you absolutely nothing, according to the president of the United States himself.
In Washington, D.C. a fat, aging hippie man becomes the first “female” four-star admiral of the United States, and nobody is allowed to laugh.
