China’s real-life ‘robocops’

China has deployed life-sized AI-powered ‘robocops’ to police roads and direct traffic around the clock.

Wearing reflective vests and white caps, the humanoid officers have been spotted patrolling Wuhu City, in eastern China’s Anhui Province, barking orders at civilians.

‘For your safety, please ride bicycles in the non-motorized lane,’ one robot was heard calling out to a cyclist who veered into traffic.

Something to look forward too.

Military models Canadian response to hypothetical American invasion … DEI DO OR DIE!

The Canadian Armed Forces have modelled a hypothetical U.S. military invasion of Canada and the country’s potential response, which includes tactics similar to those employed against Russia and later U.S.-led forces in Afghanistan, two senior government officials say.

It is believed to be the first time in a century that the Canadian Armed Forces have created a model of an American assault on this country, a founding member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and a partner with the U.S. in continental air defence.

Spanish train crash caused by ‘gap in track’

Experts investigating the cause of a train crash in Spain that killed 40 people have found a broken joint on the rails.

The tail end of a train heading from Malaga to Madrid derailed at 7.45pm on Sunday, smashing into an oncoming train travelling from the capital to Huelva.

Investigators at the scene identified some wear on the joint between sections of the rail, known as a fishplate, which they said showed the fault had been there for some time, a source briefed on the investigations told Reuters.

Bill C-15 would allow corporations to be exempt from most Canadian laws

Buried on page 300 of the government’s omnibus budget implementation bill is an extremely troubling clause regarding corporate power in Canada—one that allows all cabinet ministers to exempt any individual or corporation from any federal Canadian law they are responsible for (with the exception of the Criminal Code). These exemptions just have to be justified as being “in the public interest” and “encourag[ing] innovation, competitiveness or economic growth,” concepts so vague that they could be invoked for virtually any law.

In theory, this new provision applies equally to all individuals and corporations, but history tells us that large corporations have disproportionate access to government officials and are able to get their way. The broad nature of this new provision means that corporations could be able to avoid everything from environmental regulations to conflict of interest laws, so long as they have a single minister on board.

As history has shown, communists go for the churches first

History repeats itself…again, and again, and again.

As we saw yesterday, a sea of anti-ICE agitators disrupted a church service somewhere in Minnesota, apparently feeling justified because as they believed, the pastor of the church was somehow moonlighting as an ICE field office director.

Video proves Don Lemon was embedded with anti-ICE agitators before they stormed church — despite claiming ‘no affiliations’
