How Donald Trump won — again

… One would presume that people of Central or South American heritage would be angered by Trump’s characterization of migrants coming to America as criminals and security threats.
But it appears one would be mistaken.

In fact, two-thirds of U.S.-born Latinos felt that Trump was not referring to them when he made such remarks on the campaign trail, according to a New York Times-Siena College poll last month.

More surprising, perhaps, is that 51-per-cent majority of Hispanic voters born outside the U.S. felt the same way.

Damn those Latinos and Blacks!

Star Staff Suffers Mass Hysteria: “Trump’s popularity has risen among Canada’s Conservatives. When should we start to worry?”

Toronto Star Editorial Board

In 2016, Donald Trump was unpopular almost everywhere in Canada. A Mainstreet poll showed a 15 per cent approval rating overall; Abacus showed him losing 80-20 to Hillary Clinton and 82-18 to Bernie Sanders. Predictably, the strongest support for Trump came among Conservative party voters: 39 per cent.
Which was high, but we were all younger then. If you were only half-paying attention, Trump was still a novelty figure: clearly racist, sexist, shallow, narcissistic and all that, but entertaining if you had a certain world view. He wasn’t someone you’d trust with your luggage, much less nukes. But back then some could perhaps argue, how bad could it be?


Here’s a lady talkin bout all them TrumpHitlers at the NYC rally last night!

Christians praying for Trump just like witches says Star: ‘These witches are trying to use their power to defeat Donald Trump’

Each month, under the glow of a waning crescent moon, thousands of American voters — who also happen to be self-identified witches — gather online and in person with one goal: preventing Donald Trump from winning the presidential election.

Armed with orange candles, tarot cards, and a not-so-flattering photo of the former president, they cast a spell to block his return to the White House. The final words of their synchronized ritual — “You’re fired!” — echo as Trump’s image burns to the ground.

Meanwhile, a very different group has been gathering in packed convention centers and under tents in states across the country. They are devout Christians on a religious-political campaign dubbed the “Courage Tour,” and they are part of a growing movement that embraces supernatural gifts like prophecy and divine healing.


Of course the Star equates Witches with Christianity but why won’t they honour Islam with the same courtesy.

Islamist propagandist writing at the Star is upset at Anthony Furey for speaking the truth about “the religion of peace”

Anthony Furey is running for council. He owes some explanations to the Muslims he seeks to represent

… Just to cite a few examples: in a 2013 column, he warned against letting thousands of Muslim immigrants into Canada, given how their beliefs “conflict with Western standards.” In 2019, he complained about how “people are sheepish” to discuss how the growing Muslim vote might force “a running theme” of anti-Semitism into Canadian politics. 

And?


Oh. Steven Zhou is a Writer for the National Council of Canadian Muslims. (Columns by the NCCM, the former CAIR Canada, should be designated paid political content not “opinion.”)

Toronto Star repeats baseless claim that Justin Trudeau is not the son of Fidel Castro

Donald Trump repeats baseless claim that Justin Trudeau ‘could be’ the son of Fidel Castro

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump pumped hot air into an old and baseless conspiracy theory about Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, telling a controversial internet personality that the Canadian leader “could be” the son of former Cuban president Fidel Castro.

In a fawning interview Monday with 24-year-old internet influencer Adin Ross, Trump rambled on about Democratic rival Kamala Harris and other leading Democrats, public figures like Elon Musk, Kanye West and Young Thug, and several world leaders.

The Star ran with the Russia hoax so merits no trust.

New Toronto Star Editor Promises To House All Potential Deportees At Her Home

‘Shocking and unjustifiable:’ Canada is deporting migrants at its highest rate in more than a decade

“… The deportation rate in 2023 was the highest since 2012, when more than 19,000 people were deported under Stephen Harper’s Conservative government. The deportations include “all removals enforced in each fiscal year,” the CBSA said, including refugee claimants, and migrants residing, working or studying in Canada who have overstayed their legal status.”

OMG! The government is deporting illegals! The Horror!

Blackie’s Star Takes The Vitriol Down A Notch: Trump Dangerous and Unfit

In Milwaukee, it’s clear what the attempted assassination of Donald Trump really changed

“… For those who think, correctly, that he is dangerous and unfit, the fact that someone tried to kill him isn’t likely to sway any votes. For his supporters, the attack may add to the myth, but they were already in the bag.”

Pierre Poilievre’s vision for Canada: A hellscape of everlasting torture says Star

Pierre Poilievre’s vision for Canada: Heaven for the very rich and squat for everyone else

Pierre Poilievre often calls Canada “broken,” but he rarely reveals that his dream Canada is an austere place that few Canadians would recognize or want to live in.

However, in an unscripted comment last month that received almost no media attention, the Conservative leader briefly provided us with a glimpse of the bleak vision he has for Canada.

“I’m very hesitant to spend taxpayers’ money on anything other than the core services of roads, bridges, police, military, border security and a safety net for those who can’t provide for themselves. That’s common sense. Let’s bring it home,” Poilievre told reporters during a campaign stop at a Vancouver gas station.

Because Trudeau has made Canada a paradise of course.

More Star Reporters Have Written About Diagolon Than The Group Has Members

Pierre Poilievre has been accused of flirting with Diagolon. Here’s what the extremist group thinks of that

The question of Pierre Poilievre’s ties — real or otherwise — to an extremist online group known as Diagolon are back in the spotlight with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accusing him of welcoming “the support of conspiracy theorists and extremists.”

But does Diagolon actually support Poilievre? The loosely organized online group trades in virulently racist and antisemitic rhetoric and has been described as “extremist” by the U.S. State Department. It is also not shy about expressing its views.

Acting like a petulant child paid off for Pierre Poilievre. Canada may not be so lucky says Liberal hack

It was quite a week in Canadian politics.

On Monday, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, who polls suggests could win a majority government with more than 200 seats in the next election, suggested he will invoke the notwithstanding clause if he becomes prime minister.

Poilievre flirts with far right while media looks away says silly woman who went moist between the hams for Venezuelan dictator

A dozen years ago, Pierre Poilievre was a relatively obscure political figure who was mostly regarded — to the extent he was regarded at all — as a fiercely anti-labour guy on the far-right of the Harper cabinet.

But there he was in Parliament last February, voting in favour of pro-labour legislation banning scabs in federal workplaces.

Has he fundamentally changed his thinking — or was that simply part of his new, air-brushed “friend of the working man” look?

Star enlists climate change cultist to explain “far right” eclipse cultists

She’s a Green Party Candidate h/t Hermes

A far-right movement claims the eclipse is a sign of the end of days. Why these seemingly fringe beliefs are more ominous than you think

One sign — and if you find the right corner of the internet, there are many, many signs — is that Monday’s total eclipse passes over a city with a portentous name: Rapture, Indiana.

It’s also “shocking,” according to a TikTokker with 2.4 million followers, that the eclipse crosses eight towns named “Nineveh,” the city of sin and vice in the Bible that the prophet Jonah was sent to warn of God’s wrath.

I bet she blames the weather on white male hegemony.

The Star’s Resident Hamas Apologist …

A Stephen Harper tweet was the latest reminder of the depth of Western bias on Israel-Palestine

On Wednesday, former Canadian prime minister Stephen Harper was in Jerusalem, shaking hands with the butcher of Gaza, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. According to his tweet, Harper witnessed “an Israel scarred by the unprovoked horrors of Oct. 7, but also united in its determination to end the threat of Hamas once and for all.”

“Unprovoked.” “Ending the threat of Hamas.” Phrases being repeatedly used to justify the unjustifiable.

Harper’s ahistorical and disingenuous framing of what’s unfolding in Gaza reflects the extent to which what we’re witnessing from the powerful is an attempt to promote a simplistic viewpoint of “good” and “bad.”

Canadian journalism survey finds senior leadership roles still overwhelmingly filled by white men say racist cranks at Toronto Star

Across the country, the top editors in newsrooms continue to disproportionately skew white and male, a new Canadian Association of Journalists (CAJ) survey has found.

The survey covers 6,035 journalists across 273 newsrooms across the country, with data submitted voluntarily by newsroom staff.

Journalists across the country, according to the survey results, are overwhelmingly white, making up 76 per cent of newsrooms. That number increases for more senior positions — newsroom supervisors are 84 per cent white and majority male.


This is the paper that employs Official Racist Cranks like Shree Paradkar who has never found a thing she couldn’t blame on white people.
