Kathy Griffin looked nearly unrecognizable as she stepped out in Los Angeles this week amid backlash over her recent anti-Trump TikTok post.
The comedian, 64, was spotted enjoying a walk with a male friend near her $8.8million Malibu home on Tuesday, July 1.
Griffin was noticeably makeup-free and her flaming red hair looked wild as it blew around in the breeze.
To more than a few Canadians, he was as irritating as a neighbour’s leaf-blower, or a yapping dog next door, or a crying baby across the aisle in a plane, or a pneumatic drill on local sidewalks.
His voice hit the ear like an assault, a whining, scolding, hyperpartisan blast of relentless grievance.
As such, the sound of silence of late from Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is one of the summer’s blessings.

Around the middle of the last century Marx — Groucho, not Karl — declined to join the Friars Club in Hollywood. His classic line: I refuse to join a club that accepts people like me as members. Two recent appointments to the Order of Canada, Theresa Tam and Bonnie Henry, extend the appropriateness of Marx’s remark to the Order of Canada.
Let us start at the top, with the motto of the Order: Desiderantes Meliorem Patriam, ‘They desire a better fatherland (or country.)’

These are just handed out to friends and family it seems. Crackerjack box distribution would be more fair.

In April, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the commercial distribution of pigs genetically edited with CRISPR technology to resist porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS), a costly and widespread disease in pork production. These pigs are expected to enter the American market in 2026. Yet Canadian consumers could start seeing gene-edited pork products in stores — unlabelled and unannounced — as early as next year.

Police have a man in custody following a sexual assault in High Park last month.
Speaking to reporters Thursday morning from inside the park, Sex Crimes Det. Adrian Pileggi said the victim was walking alone on a paved pathway at around 10:40 p.m. on June 4 near Howard Park Ave. and Parkside Dr. when she was approached from behind by an assailant.
Lawyers for a South African high court judge accused of sexual harassment have dismissed a gender expert’s testimony that “no means no” as “Eurocentric”.
They also accused the expert of an “imposition of whiteness” in her assessment of the case brought against Selby Mbenenge, judge president of the Eastern Cape, by a secretary in his court, Andiswa Mengo.
Canada’s air traffic control service says some airports across the country could see delays after receiving bomb threats early Thursday morning.
“Early this morning, NAV CANADA was made aware of bomb threats affecting facilities in Ottawa, Montreal, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Calgary and Vancouver,” a spokesperson said in a statement.
Whether attributed to a specific threat or not we’ll never know as it’s best not to offend!
Four employees of a satirical magazine in Turkey have been arrested for publishing a cartoon that appears to show the Prophet Muhammad – a sacred religious figure whose depiction is a deeply contentious issue in Islam.
Turkey’s interior minister Ali Yerlikaya condemned LeMan magazine’s drawing as “shameless”, announcing that its editor-in-chief, graphic designer, institutional director and cartoonist had been detained.
Turkey:#LeMan cartoonists arrested over a drawing of “Muhammad” & “Moses” greeting in the afterlife.
The magazine says it’s not the Prophet, but riots broke out and “swift legal action” followed.
No one should be jailed for a cartoon.#FreeSpeech #EndBlasphemyLaws #ExMuslim pic.twitter.com/SN0aCc87D6

The US government is preparing to breed billions of flies and dump them out of airplanes over Mexico and southern Texas to fight a flesh-eating maggot.
That sounds like the plot of a horror movie, but it is part of the government’s plans for protecting the US from a bug that could devastate its beef industry, decimate wildlife and even kill household pets. This weird science has worked well before.
“It’s an exceptionally good technology,” said Edwin Burgess, an assistant professor at the University of Florida who studies parasites in animals, particularly livestock. “It’s an all-time great in terms of translating science to solve some kind of large problem.”

A Christian artist was reported to the police and banned from her own exhibition because of her gender-critical beliefs.
Victoria Culf also claims a council worker wrongly accused her of being under police investigation when she was not.
Mrs Culf launched legal action against Watford borough council last year on nine grounds, including breach of contract, discrimination and harassment.
