As President Donald Trump prepares to enter into his second term, it is important to reacquaint ourselves with that media affliction known as Trump Derangement Syndrome. One of its classic symptoms is the urge to blame everything on Trump, This symptom was on clear display as the legacy media reported on Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s decision to step down from his post.
President-elect Trump said Tuesday he was not considering using military force to make Canada part of the United States after repeatedly musing about the idea of the country becoming the 51st state.
Instead, Trump said he intended to use “economic force” against the neighbor to the north.
“Because Canada and the United States, that would really be something. You get rid of that artificially drawn line, and you take a look at what that looks like, and it would also be much better for national security,” Trump said.
Has to be better than Canada under the Liberal-NDP party.
In the past four years, nearly 1,600 people have been prosecuted in connection with the storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Some were accused of felonies like assault or seditious conspiracy and are still in prison. But hundreds charged with lesser crimes have wrapped up their cases and returned to their lives.
Jan. 6 was a turning point for everyone involved. In breaching the Capitol, a mob of Trump loyalists caused millions of dollars in damage, injured more than 140 police officers and, for the first time in American history, chased lawmakers away from their duty to certify a presidential election.
First, President-elect Donald Trump tweaked Canada’s far-left Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about becoming governor of the 51st state of the United States of America. Then he said that the Panama Canal should once again come under American control. Make that the 52nd state. And now, are you ready for a 53rd state? Last month, Trump renewed a call he made during his first term: that the United States should buy Greenland from Denmark. Could the man possibly be serious?
When Syrian opposition groups went on the attack in late November, ultimately toppling the brutal regime of Syrian strongman Bashar Al-Assad, an iconic US Air Force warplane made a brief appearance over the fast-moving front line.
At least one Fairchild A-10 Thunderbolt II – the Cold War tank-killer also known as the Warthog, or alternatively just the Hog – was spotted flying low over US-backed fighters in eastern Syria. That A-10 didn’t actually fire its weapons in anger, however. Indeed, the Warthog’s desert cameo belies the type’s primary mission in the Middle East in the last five years of its five-decade service.
The message from President Biden’s national security adviser was startling.
Chinese hackers had gained the ability to shut down dozens of U.S. ports, power grids and other infrastructure targets at will, Jake Sullivan told telecommunications and technology executives at a secret meeting at the White House in the fall of 2023, according to people familiar with it. The attack could threaten lives, and the government needed the companies’ help to root out the intruders.
There’s a thin line between being helpful and being unhelpful.
When it comes to reporting on terrorist attacks, the press often chooses to be unhelpful, believing it is doing the exact opposite.
In the early hours of January 1, a driver sped his truck down crowded Bourbon Street in New Orleans, killing 14 New Year’s revelers and injuring nearly three times as many. The driver was later brought down by a barrage of bullets after a brief gunfight with law enforcement officials.
From the slopes of Whistler, Antony Vo is beginning to explain how he ended up in Canada, when he’s swiftly interrupted by a ski patrol.
“Can I call you back? My binding is loose,” he tells a Star reporter over the phone.
Probably the only time you’ll see the Star upset about a refugee to Canada.
The New Orleans attacker who killed 14 people by ramming a pickup truck into a crowd built two bombs with a “very rare explosive compound,” senior law enforcement officials have said.
The compound had never before been used in a US or European terror attack, with investigators now exploring how attacker Shamsud-Din Jabbar learned how to produce the explosive.
The FBI is investigating terrorist Shamsud-Din Jabbar’s visit to Canada as they revealed new details into his planning of the New Orleans attack.
Investigators said they are now probing leads across the country and abroad of Jabbar’s movements leading up to the attack that killed 14 people and injured dozens.
Special agent in charge of the New Orleans Field Office Lyonel Myrthil told a press conference on Sunday: ‘We have tracked that Jabbar traveled to Cairo, Egypt, from June 22 until July 3 of 2023.
A message circulating on a Haitian WhatsApp group in Springfield, Ohio, lists the best destinations for those fleeing the town in the wake of Donald Trump’s election win.
All of them are states run by Democrats who could provide sanctuary for Haitians worried about being deported following Mr Trump’s election victory: New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Vermont, Massachusetts and California.
It is believed that thousands have left for those states in the weeks after polling day. More of Ohio’s sizeable Haitian population is preparing to follow.
Whether the bureau designates an Islamist attack “terrorism” depends on a dubious judgment that it was inspired by “false” Islamic teaching.
Turns out that Shamsud-Din Jabbar kept Islamic scripture on, of all places, his internal profile page at Deloitte, where he was working as a “solutions specialist” — which sounds eerie now in light of the “solution” he had in mind when he rammed a rented Ford pickup truck into a crowd of revelers on Bourbon Street in the first hours of the new year, killing 15 and injuring dozens more.
A major housecleaning is in order.
America’s top doctor has called for risk warnings on alcoholic beverages, similar to the labels on cigarettes, following new research that links the drinks to seven types of cancer.
The advisory from US Surgeon General Vivek Murthy says the “majority of Americans are unaware of this risk” that leads to about 100,000 cases of cancer and 20,000 deaths annually in the US.
It would require an act of Congress to change the existing warning labels, which have not been updated since 1988.
A figure filmed planting pipe bombs around Capitol Hill hours before the January 6 insurrection is so well disguised, the FBI isn’t sure if they are a man or a woman.
The 5ft 7in suspect was caught on CCTV laying the explosives outside the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee on January 5, 2021.
Newly released video showed they wore a white hoodie, dark pants and gloves, and a mask around their face – as most people did during the Covid pandemic at the time.
This newly released surveillance video of the 1/6 bomber leads us to two vital clues:
1. With the legs together, half-ladylike, combined with previous videos, this is undoubtedly a woman.
2. With that conclusion, we must rule out @mtgreenee as a suspectpic.twitter.com/Ovy78G1RTM

Officials were told in 2019 that the French Quarter’s Bourbon Street was vulnerable to car-ramming. Days on from those fears being realised, it has reopened
New Orleans officials were warned five years ago that the city’s famed Bourbon Street, a tourist hotspot that attracts thousands of people each day, was vulnerable to a “vehicular ramming” attack.
As revellers and residents returned to the strip, which reopened only 36 hours after Shamsud-Din Jabbar used a vehicle to kill 14 people and injure more than 30 others in the early hours of New Year’s Day, local officials pledged to strengthen security measures throughout the historic French Quarter.
