“Because Shut Up!”

Elites in the U.S. and U.K. prioritize protecting their power over public safety, hiding the truth about crimes and fearing backlash more than addressing the harm inflicted on innocent victims.

Having read his January 7th piece in American Greatness, “We Can Handle the Truth,” clearly Christopher Roach did a splendid job of employing a cinematic reference to tie together the U.S. and U.K. establishments’ mutual fear of telling their public the truth about terrorism and other criminal acts when the perpetrators are from a preferred intersectional group.

A Northern Ontario mayor who was fined for voting against flying a Pride flag at his town hall says he will not be bullied into paying the $5,000 penalty.

Nor will Mayor Harold McQuaker be taking LGBTQ training as he has been ordered to by the Ontario Human Rights Commission (OHRC).

And, McQuaker, insisted he won’t cave to demands that he must host a Drag Time story hour in the local library, either.

Meanwhile Barrhead Alberta joins the resistance …

Residents of Barrhead vote in favour of bylaw banning rainbow flags, crosswalks

BARRHEAD, Alta. – Residents of a northern Alberta town have voted in favour of a bylaw banning Pride flags and rainbow crosswalks from municipal property.

The town of Barrhead, located about 120 kilometres northwest of Edmonton, says 1,145 votes were cast in the plebiscite, with 653 in favour of the proposed bylaw and 492 opposed to it.

On a Sunday morning, the Essex police showed up at the home of Telegraph columnist Allison Pearson to interrogate her, because she had tweeted a photo of Manchester police officers posing with representatives of the Islamist Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party, some of whose leading members were recently charged with terrorism offenses.

Pearson’s crime, for which Essex police formed a “gold group” normally used for dealing with major crimes, was tweeting “look at this lot smiling with the Jew haters” about the ugly photo.

Shortly after Elon Musk offered to buy Twitter in April 2022, he wrote that for the platform to maintain the public’s trust, “it must be politically neutral, which effectively means upsetting the far right and the far left equally.” More than two years down the line, it would be fair to say that the Left is a lot more upset than the Right. So is Musk turning Twitter, now X, into a Right-wing echo chamber?

They are a half-inch big, rainbow-colored and crunchy—and at the center of a political food fight.

Froot Loops maker WK Kellogg has been under fire for months over its use of artificial food dyes. Now one of the company’s highest-profile critics, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., has been tapped to become the country’s top health official, and has vowed to target artificial dyes in cereal that he says contribute to widespread health problems, particularly in children.

“They get brighter colors in Froot Loops, but it’s literally poisoning our kids,” Kennedy said in a Fox News interview in September. Kellogg said the colors it uses in its cereals have been deemed safe by scientific bodies around the world.

These are generally days of mourning (mixed with a generous helping of hysterical fearmongering) for the left, but the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is all smiles. Its Massachusetts chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-MA) announced Thursday that the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD) has found “probable cause” in a discrimination case involving a Muslim woman who claims that a McDonald’s employee deliberately and maliciously served her pork. No, it wasn’t Donald Trump, but the victim and her CAIR allies are furious, and looking for justice, otherwise known as a big payday.

Rashida Tlaib, the Palestinian American congresswoman, has accused a political cartoonist of racism after he depicted her next to a pager exploding days after such devices blew up across Lebanon in what the Arab country has said was an attack by Israel.

A statement from the Democratic US House representative also expressed concern that the cartoon by Henry Payne would “incite more hate and violence against Arab and Muslim communities”.

The Washington Post has long been the mouthpiece of the Democratic National Committee, strutting its phony, self-righteous objectivity around like an exceptionally ugly drag queen. There is no hiding its bias, as there no hiding the dude down deep under the wig, makeup, and stilettos.

Leftist slant is what you come to expect from a publication that has been staffed and led by graduates of the Aaron Sorkin School of Journalism.
