Polling of “white liberals” compared to “white conservatives” shows increased approval of political violence among white liberals since 2016 and decreased tolerance among white conservatives.
The poll asked, “How much do you feel it is justified for people to use violence to pursue their political goals?”
People who formerly identified as transgender and took cross-sex hormones or underwent transgender surgery have later come to regret their transitions and the serious damage they did to their own bodies, urged on by the medical establishment. On March 12, the Detrans day of awareness, these detransitioners have come forward to tell their stories.
Justin Lane is an Oxford University-trained artificial intelligence (AI) expert and entrepreneur with no patience for fluffy theories. His research spans the field of cognition — both human and artificial — as well as religion and conflict.
That led to some fascinating fieldwork in Northern Ireland, where he studied Irish Republican Army and Ulster Defence Association extremists up close. Ultimately, he applied his humanities research to AI programming and agent-based computer simulations.
A Canadian vaccine researcher says he believes that Chinese political machinations ended a vaccine partnership last summer.
Dr. Scott Halperin, the director of the Canadian Centre for Vaccinology, made the accusation Thursday to the Special Committee on Canada-China Relations.
A constant refrain from the Biden administration is that Donald Trump’s immigration policies violated American “values.” By now, the core value of the current administration in this area has become clear: lax enforcement of the laws.
This has created, to use Jen Psaki’s preferred word, a “challenge” on the Southwest border — the White House press secretary refuses to call the border surge a “crisis.” More on this “challenge” later.

The government response to COVID-19 has mostly been a failure. Theatric, yes—see New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s Emmy. Symbolic, yes. But there is no evidence shutdowns did anything but deepen the economic suffering, increase suicides, and prevent lifesaving medical tests and treatments.
With the exception of former President Trump’s effort to speed research, approval, and rollout of a COVID vaccine through Operation Warp Speed, and efforts to discourage the spread of the virus through border restrictions (now abandoned by President Biden), what policies can objectively be shown to have worked?
Most Americans hate woke politics — and most minorities don’t share “woke” priorities. Indeed, according to pollster David Shor, woke excesses are causing black voters to flee the Democratic Party. Despite endless charges of “racism,” former President Donald Trump took the biggest share of minority voters of any Republican in my lifetime.
American Vogue was yesterday branded absurd for suggesting the phrase ‘a niggling worry’ was racist towards Meghan Markle.
The magazine criticised a Daily Mail front page for using the words alongside Harry and Meghan’s engagement photo in 2017.
It was used in a headline to signpost to an inside article written by Sarah Vine.
A former prisoner has been convicted of planning an Islamic State-inspired sword attack.
Sahayb Abu, 27, was found guilty by a jury of preparing an act of terrorism and will be sentenced on 9 April.
Muhamed Abu, his 32-year-old brother, was acquitted of failing to warn police about the plan.
Sahayb’s preparations included buying a sword, a knife, balaclavas, fingerless gloves, and a combat vest, and paying extra to have the sword sharpened.
Ontario bureaucrat fired for alleged $11M COVID-19 fraud says ‘incompetent’ province to blame for missing money
The theft of $11 million in pandemic relief aid was due to the Ontario government’s incompetence, not any “conspiracy,” insists the bureaucrat fired over the alleged fraud.
Sanjay Madan, who was the information technology leader on the Support for Families COVID-19 aid program, said in his statement of defence filed Thursday that it’s the province’s fault money went missing.
“There was … widespread misappropriation of Support for Families program money,” says the eight-page document prepared by lawyer Christopher Du Vernet.
He’s the real victim!
A nanny who decapitated a four-year-old girl then carried her head through the streets shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ will be free after just five years in a psychiatric ward, reports claim.
Gyulchehra Bobokulova, 43, has been ‘cured’ of the ‘chronic psychiatric disorder’ that led her to kill Anastasia Meshcheryakov and parade her head in Moscow, Russian doctors claim.
Horrifying footage shows burka-clad Bobokulova clutching the severed head of Anastasia – known as Nastya – and shouting ‘I am a terrorist’ outside Oktyabrskoye Pol metro station in Moscow.
A flashback to June? Nope — the protests and riots that have roiled Portland since last spring continue, including the targeting of the city’s federal courthouse. Before the “self-described anarchists” got to the Mark Hatfield Federal Courthouse, though, the crowd attacked businesses in the city, smashing windows and committing other “damage.”
Downtown Portland at the federal courthouse, anti DHS/ICE and #StopLine3 protesters gather. A few of the remaining uncovered windows have been broken. An American flag burns in front of the door. #PortlandRiots #PortlandProtests #montysaiyed

OTTAWA – About 800,000 Canadians will be blocked out of their Canada Revenue Agency online account until they change their login credentials after identical information was found for sale on the dark web.
The number is a significant jump from the agency’s initial assessment that caught over 100,000 potentially compromised accounts, and the agency believes that number will continue to balloon as external data breaches remain prevalent and people re-use identical login credentials for multiple web services.
Face masks are a ‘ticking plastic bomb’: Three MILLION coverings are thrown out every minute and serve as carriers for other toxicants in the environment
Three million face masks are discarded every minute as a result of mass adoption during the coronavirus pandemic, and experts warn it could soon lead to environmental catastrophe.
Face coverings are being worn by the majority of individuals around the world in order to curb the spread of SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus which causes Covid-19.
However, they pose a greater risk to the environment than carrier bags because of their ubiquity and the fact there is no way to safely decontaminate and recycle them.
