The longest-running group of cheerleaders for an NFL team, founded in 1962, is no more.
The Washington Football Team, formerly known as the Redskins, is replacing their cheerleading squad with a coed dance ensemble. The Los Angeles Rams and New England Patriots already have men on their cheerleading squads.
I get it. Who wants to look at this?
Israeli public figures responded to the ICC announcement that it would investigate Israel for alleged war crimes in Gaza and Judea and Samaria.
Professor Eugene Kontorovich, Director of International Law at the Jerusalem-based Kohelet Policy Forum said the ICC’s opening of the investigation “is entirely unjustified – and predictable, given its longstanding lawless bias against the Jewish state.”
“The Prosecutor today makes a mockery of international criminal law,” he added, accusing the court of becoming a “judicial arm of the U.N. anti-Israel echo chamber.”
China‘s ambassador to Canada says reports of genocide and forced labour of Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang province are the “lie of the century,” despite international bodies like the United Nations deeming the reports of such activities “numerous and credible.”
Cong Peiwu on Wednesday held a virtual press conference with political journalists from several Canadian outlets, including Global News. The event came a little over one week after the House of Commons voted to recognize China’s treatment of Uyghurs as a genocide.
The Left has denounced the “war on woke,” but it is afraid to defend the principles of critical race theory in public debate.
The critical race theorists are feeling the heat. Over the past decade, they have had remarkable success in perpetuating the concepts of systemic racism, unconscious bias, white privilege, and white fragility in American institutions, beginning with universities and moving on to schools, government agencies, and multinational corporations. Their campaign began mostly without opposition, as most conservatives were either ignorant of what was happening o r dismissed it as a campus fad.
It has now been nearly a year since “public health experts” began appearing on television talk shows insisting that, to survive COVID-19, the nation would have to pursue unprecedented mitigation policies. They told us that our salvation required draconian measures such as school closures, stay-at-home orders, and business lockdowns. Moreover, we were advised not to expect a fast return to our normal lives. In early April 2020, for example, Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel solemnly assured us, “We will not be able to return to normalcy until we find a vaccine…. We need to prepare ourselves for this to last 18 months or so and for the toll that it will take.”
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Liberals are gearing up to bribe us with our own money, yet again, to win the looming federal election, having given themselves the perfect vehicle to do it.
It’s a so-called economic stimulus fund of up to $100 billion to be spent over the next three years, details to come whenever Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland finally delivers a budget, which the Liberals have now delayed for two years.
“Digital giants have been playing an increasingly significant role in wider society… how well does this monopolism correlate with the public interest?,” Russian President Vladimir Putin said on January 27, 2021.
“Where is the distinction between successful global businesses, sought-after services and big data consolidation on the one hand, and the efforts to rule society[…] by substituting legitimate democratic institutions, by restricting the natural right for people to decide how to live and what view to express freely on the other hand?”
Was Mr. Putin defending democracy? Hardly. What apparently worries him is that the Big Tech might gain the power to control society at the expense of his government. What must be a nightmare for him — as for many Americans — is that the Tech giants were able to censor news favorable to Trump and then censor Trump himself. How could the U.S. do this to the president of a great and free country?

The federal probe into Hunter Biden’s “tax affairs” is plowing ahead without any interference from President Biden’s White House, according to a report Wednesday.
Prosecutors in the US Attorney’s Office in Delaware are “treating it seriously” and they have “not heard from the White House” or Judge Merrick Garland, the president’s nominee to run the Justice Department, Fox News reported.

Felipe Romero, a spokesperson for Brownsville, Texas, told Fox News that 108 migrants tested positive for the CCP virus since Jan. 25—when rapid testing for the virus began. That represents about 6.3 percent of the total undocumented migrants who were rapid-tested in Brownsville’s bus station, the official said.
Sales of Dr. Seuss children’s books continue booming a day after the left tried to “cancel” the author’s works on his birthday.
Dr. Seuss’s books were among the leading 42 titles on the top 50 list of Amazon’s “movers and shakers” on Wednesday morning after the ban was announced.
Germany’s Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) have placed the Alternative for Germany (AfD) under surveillance, according to local media.
That designation gives state agents more powers for surveillance in certain circumstances, including potentially tapping the party’s communications.
The BfV refused to comment on media reports from Der Spiegel magazine, the DPA news agency and public broadcaster ARD. The Interior Ministry, which oversees the BfV, said it would neither confirm nor deny them.
A pattern emerges…

Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin posted the decree to ban GI on Twitter, saying it took into account the group’s “structure and military organization,” adding that GI can be regarded “as having the character of a private militia.”
