Justin’s pal Pakistan PM Imran Khan blames how women dress for rise in rape cases and says ‘not everyone has the willpower to avoid it’

That talk on Girl’s education really made an impression on Imran.

Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan has sparked outcry by blaming women’s dress for a rise in rape cases in his country.

The former cricketing playboy made the remark during a question and answer session with the public on Sunday, when a caller asked what the government is doing about rising in sexual violence particularly against children.

Khan then hit out at what he called ‘vulgarity’ in societies around the world – singling out India’s Bollywood and the ‘sex, drugs and rock and roll’ culture of England in the 70s as examples – saying that is to blame for moral decline that leads to sex attacks.

Like Justin, Imran believes women experience sexual assault differently.

Biden Says He Has Not Spoken to Chinese Leader About Virus Origins

U.S. President Joe Biden said on April 6 that he has not talked to Chinese leader Xi Jinping about the origins of the CCP virus, which causes the disease COVID-19.

“I have not had that conversation with President Xi,” Biden said.

UK: Over 130 imams and Islamic scholars urge Johnson to condemn showing of ‘blasphemous’ cartoons in school

This is absurd beyond belief, yet indicative of the level of anti-British ideology that circulates among these Muslim leaders in Britain. It is also alarming that these leaders are brazen enough to operate within the UK as if they were in Sharia-adherent Pakistan, with its infamous blasphemy laws.

Nation of Islam calls US Capitol knifeman Noah Green ‘a brother with such great potential’ after he rammed car into barricade killing a police officer

The Nation of Islam says that the 25-year-old mentally disturbed man who rammed his car into a barricade at the US Capitol on Friday and killed a policeman was a ‘brother with such great potential.’

The Chicago-based organization released a statement on Tuesday distancing itself from the crime, saying that ‘we absolutely disavow this act that resulted in the senseless loss of life.’

Noah Green was shot and killed by Capitol Police following the attack, which happened shortly after 1pm on Friday.

RCMP seal entrances: AHS statement on GraceLife Church closure

You can read it on the AHS site.

Fence goes up around Alta. church refusing to follow COVID-19 orders

EDMONTON — A fence has been erected around the Alberta church whose congregation has met for months in violation of provincial COVID-19 orders.

Chain link fencing surrounded GraceLife Church in Parkland County west of Edmonton Wednesday morning.

Alberta Health Services said it “physically closed” the building and will be preventing access to it until GraceLife “can demonstrate the ability to comply with Alberta’s Chief Medical Officer of Health’s restrictions.”

Not a good look for the Government or the RCMP. The double standards are infuriating. Wanna riot or publicly bask in the light of your politically correct cause? No problem. Go to church?? Criminal.

Senior Green officials are sabotaging the first Black woman to lead a Canadian political party, ‘disgusted’ insiders say

OTTAWA—Green Leader Annamie Paul is facing obstacles inside her party that threaten her success as Canada’s first Black political leader, according to several Green insiders and a top member of her political circle.

Over her first six months as leader, Paul has endured “significant resistance” from high-ranking officials on the Green party’s most powerful governing body, said Sean Yo, a party operative who worked on Paul’s leadership bid and managed her byelection campaign in Toronto Centre last October.

Yo said this includes distracting her byelection campaign by asking it to refund $50,000 to party headquarters in the middle of the contest, and forcing her to work without getting paid for about three months before the party finally gave her an employment contract.

Ontario reports 3,215 new Covid cases … Stay home, the government won’t let you buy a toilet at Costco anyway … but you have dementia to look forward to

Ont. reports more than 3,200 new COVID-19 infections, highest daily case count since mid-January

Ontario is reporting more than 3,200 new COVID-19 cases, the highest daily case count logged in the province since mid-January.

Provincial health officials recorded 3,215 new infections today, up from 3,065 on Tuesday and 2,938 on Monday.

It is the highest daily tally reported in the province since Jan. 17, when 3,422 new cases were confirmed.


Ontario to enact month-long stay-at-home order beginning Thursday: sources

TORONTO — The Ford government is set to announce a provincewide, month-long stay-at-home order today similar to what was enacted in January in a bid to stem the third wave of COVID-19, multiple sources say.

Sources tell CP24 and CTV News Toronto that subject to final approval today, the order will take effect at 12:01 a.m. Thursday and will close all retail outlets for in-person shopping other than grocery stores and pharmacies.

Big box stores will be allowed to open for sale of essential goods only.


One in three COVID-19 patients in U.S. developed a neurological or psychiatric condition, study finds

A study of more than 236,000 people in the United States who contracted COVID-19 last year has found that one in three developed a neurological or psychiatric condition and one in 50 of those who became seriously ill received their first diagnosis of dementia within six months.

The most common conditions were anxiety and mood disorders, which occurred in 17 per cent and 14 per cent respectively of those studied. Among patients admitted to intensive care, the researchers found that 7 per cent suffered a stroke and almost 2 per cent developed dementia – which could have been present before COVID-19 but went undiagnosed. They added that more study is needed to fully establish the link between COVID-19 and dementia.

Tell me this crap didn’t leak from a lab.

Last chance to end the tech tyranny

Big Tech’s unchecked power serves a moral vision as comprehensive as that of any religion

What would Adam Smith think of cancel culture? Many advocates of banning books now hide behind a veil of free-market purity: If Amazon bans a book, it’s not really banned because the online megalomart is, a private company. But it controls an outright majority of book sales in the United States, and even that remarkable measure may underestimate the power Jeff Bezos’s company wields over individual titles. Bestsellers can be found elsewhere perhaps, but most books have few other outlets.

Boulder, New York, D.C. — and The Myth of The Evil, White Male

The Left gnaws its nails over three recent monstrous crimes.

These white supremacists are diabolically clever. Lately, they’ve taken to disguising themselves as Syrian Muslim refugees, black men on parole for killing their mother and homicidal Farrakhan supporters.

After the Atlanta massage parlor shootings, the racial-guilt industry went into overdrive. The shooter was routinely described as a white male who had targeted Asian women. (Aside: Very few Bulgarian dwarfs work at massage parlors.)

Dave Rubin: why the ‘Intellectual Dark Web’ split up

Dave Rubin: why the ‘Intellectual Dark Web’ split up

“They’ve made what to me seems to be a very obvious fatal mistake, that you can use any of the tools of Liberalism — of open inquiry, freedom of speech, respect for your fellow human beings, individual rights — that you can use any of these things to rationalise with the monster that is coming to burn your house down. And that’s why we’ve seen in effect the liberals have no defence over this, which is why all the liberal institutions are crumbling.”

Crony capitalism and professional sports

Professional athletic leagues have traditionally steered clear of politics in order to emphasize the purity of their entertainment and to avoid dividing fans over partisan controversies. That has changed in the last year. Players in the National Football League have “taken the knee” during playing of the national anthem as a protest against police practices; the National Basketball Association has embraced Black Lives Matter, also as a protest against the police; and now Major League Baseball has taken this year’s All-Star game out of Atlanta as a protest against Georgia’s new voting law, though baseball executives do not appear to have studied that law. Through these gestures, formerly non-political organizations have allied themselves with explicitly political causes.

Ontario imposing stay-at-home order, closing non-essential retail: sources

Ontario Premier Doug Ford’s cabinet has approved a provincewide stay-at-home order and will close non-essential retail stores for all but curbside pickup, multiple sources told CBC News Tuesday night.

The move comes in the wake of criticism that restrictions announced last week — what the government called “emergency brake” measures — are insufficient to slow the spread of Ontario’s third wave of COVID-19.

Sources familiar with cabinet’s decision said the stay-at-home order would take effect at 12:01 a.m. ET Thursday and last up to four weeks.

Conservative government would conduct public inquiry into pandemic response, O’Toole says

Conservative Leader Erin O’Toole said today a Conservative government would call a public inquiry to examine the federal government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

At a press conference in Ottawa this morning, O’Toole said Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government was caught “unprepared” by COVID-19 and that its reaction to the pandemic’s spread has been “slow and confused.”

‘It’s Tragic’: Glenn Greenwald Laments Destruction Of Media Credibility, Pinpoints ‘Trump Years’ As Breaking Point

Journalist Glenn Greenwald on Tuesday lamented how historically trustworthy major corporate news outlets have destroyed their own credibility, especially during the years of the Trump administration.

“I’ve been a critic of corporate media outlets for 15 years but always assumed one could get basic facts (even if flawed) by reading them. I now no longer think this,” Greenwald tweeted. “Their journalistic and business model makes me distrust everything I read there.”
