Let’s not pretend that Coca-Cola and Nike own the moral high ground
Those who live in corporate glass towers should not throw stones.
Far too many C-suite executives have yet to learn the lesson of that paraphrased proverb. Some of America’s largest corporations are engaging in woke politics in an attempt to divert attention away from mistreatment of their customers, serious business problems, and significant evidence they’ve exploited foreign labor.
Recently released e-mails show that Dr. Anthony Fauci knew key facts about the origins of COVID-19 in January 2020. But at that critical time, when the country was first learning about the virus, Dr. Fauci chose not to share the facts with Americans. Instead, he acted to conceal them.
Already facing a challenge to her leadership, Green Party Leader Annamie Paul also now faces the prospect of losing her party membership.
Several sources told CBC News that the party’s federal council discussed reviewing Annamie Paul’s membership during a meeting late Tuesday night. The sources said they could not confirm whether a formal review has been initiated, as the Toronto Star first reported.
It’s not clear what revoking Paul’s membership would mean for the status of her leadership. According to the party’s rules, the leader must be a member in good standing.
Mental health professionals will be dispatched to 911 calls in Chicago instead of cops following defund the police protests – as gang members now outnumber officers ten to one amid mass exodus from the force
Tearing down our country is their reason for existing.
The authoritarian Left hate America, or at least America in its current form. This is not an opinion, nor is it merely an observation. This is not an attempt at hyperbole or sensationalism, nor is it some “vast right-wing conspiracy,” as Hillary Clinton might call it.
A group of gunmen stormed Jovenel Moïse’s home and shot him 12 times
There was a time when Haiti was at the center of the New World. It was one of the richest islands on the globe, producing cane sugar for the sweet tooth of Europe. It cultivated coffee, cotton and rice, and it produced rum. The Pearl of the Antilles, the island stood at the gateway to all the resources of South and Central America. Mexico, with all its gold, lay just beyond Haiti’s northernmost cape. Great powers of the era — France, Britain, Germany, and the United States — vied for political and military control.
Now Haiti is a failed state.
Sixty-three percent of Americans believe the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) should pay pandemic reparations, according to a TIPP poll released Tuesday conducted for the Center for Security Policy.
“That number rises from 63 percent to 78 percent if investigations reveal that the Chinese government released the SARS-CoV-19 human coronavirus on purpose,” the survey results detailed.
Judging by recent events, six years of Liberal attempts at reconciliation have left Canada’s Indigenous people decidedly unreconciled.
It’s hard to get a firm grasp on the situation, given that the Indigenous “community” is really a diverse, scattered and disparate collection of communities and organizations spread across a vast and varying expanse of geographical and political landscapes.
James Carville said on Tuesday night that Democrats pay a hefty political price for the actions of 15% of the Democratic Party.
“We did lose traction with Black voters and Hispanic voters,” the political strategist told Chris Cuomo about the 2020 election. “And I think part of that is that we got identified by the ‘defund the police’ and the language police.”
It is much larger than 15%.
A former mosque leader from Brighton is suspected of giving a speech in front of young children saying armed conflict and violence was their ‘religious obligation’, a court heard.
Abu Bakr Deghayes is charged with encouraging terrorism by saying ‘Jihad is compulsory’ at evening prayers and making stabbing motions.
The 53-year-old allegedly told the congregation that ‘scholars fought the enemies of Allah’.
I bet this never happens at a Canadian mosque. Not that we would know, the authorities don’t monitor them.
Biden Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas responded to the ongoing crisis in Cuba by saying that any Cubans that attempt maritime migration to the U.S. will not be allowed into the country.
Mayorkas, who is Cuban, claimed that the Biden administration stands “in solidarity with the Cuban people and their call for freedom from the repression and economic suffering that the Cuban’s authoritarian regime is causing.”
The first Cuban protester has died after police allegedly opened fire on a peaceful demonstration while an anti-government reporter was arrested live on TV as the unrest continues on the Communist-run island.
Diubis Laurencio Tejeda, 36, died on Monday in a suburb of Havana during a clash between protesters and police, the Interior Ministry said.
The ministry said Tejeda was part of a group of protesters that had attacked a government facility in the La Guinera neighbourhood of Havana and did not say what caused his death.
Police in the German state of Hesse searched multiple locations in connection with investigations involving suspected “Islamic State” extremists, local authorities said Wednesday morning.
Ten search warrants were executed across the state “on suspicion of terrorist financing and the preparation of a serious, state-endangering act of violence” early Wednesday.
The accused included eight men and two women between the ages of 20 and 51, according to a statement by the public prosecutor’s office in Frankfurt am Main and the Hessian State Criminal Police Office.
At a roadblock on the outskirts of Howick on Tuesday morning, a young black man was receiving medical attention for a bullet-wound in his hand.
He was noticeable for being the only black man among a group of about a dozen heavily-armed white men who are part of an impromptu militia who have stepped into the vacuum left by a police force hopelessly overstretched by South Africa’s worst outburst of street violence since the fall of Apartheid.
The sight of an all-white force of gunmen stopping vehicles carrying mostly black passengers brings back uncomfortable memories of the past. But residents here feel it is their last line of defence.

POLICE are caught looting goods as South Africa’s descent into lawlessness continues
Policemen in South Africa have been caught looting goods as the ransacking of stores and warehouses continued into a fifth day – amid fears of food, fuel and Covid medicines shortages caused by the rioting.
Footage showed people accosting a man wearing a police jacket beside a hatchback filled with household supplies, including bread, milk and cooking oil. The woman filming says: ‘This is a police officer, in uniform, looting … This is our SAPS (South African Police Service), guys.’
A second video from the same woman showed another purported officer in plain clothes trying to hide his face from the camera after he was hauled out of his car by locals. His vehicle was laden with allegedly looted products, including a flat-screen television.–
