WHO Removes Hundreds of Monkeypox Deaths as Case Fatality Rate Drops to 0.2%. Some “Global Emergency”

Public health responses are most effective when they are grounded in reality. This is particularly important if the response is intended to address an ‘emergency’ and involves the transfer of large amounts of public money. When we reallocate resources, there is a cost, as the funds are taken from some other programme. If the response involves buying lots of products from a manufacturer, there will also be a gain for the company and its investors.

So-Called “Foreign Students” Protest Over Failing Exams

But according to the attempted gaslighting from a largely anti-Trump panel during Tuesday’s CNN News Central, Trump didn’t actually win that first debate.

UK: Boy, 11, arrested in raids following riots

An 11-year-old boy was among those arrested during early morning raids on Wednesday, following riots across the country.

Fourteen people were detained, aged between 11 and 43, on suspicion of violent disorder, including a mother and her son.

Cleveland Police has now arrested 110 people following widespread disorder across Hartlepool and Middlesbrough almost a month ago.

Supt Marc Anderson, who was Silver Commander during the Middlesbrough disorder, said he had never “seen anything like” it in his 30 years of service.

Trudeau freezing bank accounts, Jan 6 protesters drawing disproportionately long jail terms, and the UK is arresting children. 

The elites are very afraid.

Drivers caught on video using on-ramp to get off Gardiner

Toronto police exam-cheating scandal: Supt. Stacy Clarke given two-year demotion

THUG LIFE!

Clarke — the Toronto Police Service’s first Black female superintendent — has pleaded guilty to seven counts of professional misconduct and admitted she helped six Black cops cheat to get a promotion in “a desperate effort to level the playing field.”

Toronto police Supt. Stacy Clarke — who admitted she helped six Black cops cheat to get a promotion in “a desperate effort to level the playing field” — has been stripped of her trailblazing rank.

In a highly anticipated penalty decision, a tribunal hearing officer sentenced Clarke, the first Black female superintendent in Toronto police history, to a two-year demotion, knocking her down one rank to inspector.

She will not be automatically reinstated to the rank of superintendent after demotion, meaning she will have to reapply.


A white cop would have been fired. I would not be comfortable dealing with a racist cop would you?

Sweden prosecutes Quran burners with hate crime

Two men in Sweden will be put on trial for setting fire to a Quran last year, prosecutors said on Wednesday.

Trudeau government’s abuse of the Temporary Foreign Workers program included dropping fraud prevention safeguards when vetting applications in order to juice the intake numbers

Government officers told to skip fraud prevention steps when vetting temporary foreign worker applications, Star investigation finds

As the Trudeau government promises to crack down on a temporary foreign worker program it admits has been abused, a Star investigation has revealed the government is fast-tracking applications by directing processing officers to skip crucial steps designed to prevent fraud.

Beginning in January 2022, Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) directed staff to apply “streamlining measures” when evaluating the legitimacy of applications by employers who want to hire temporary foreign workers.

According to internal ESDC documents obtained by the Star and interviews with a current ESDC employee, routine checks meant to ensure the system is not abused by unscrupulous employers have been suspended in an effort to process applications faster.

That Great Replacement theory? It’s just a conspiracy!
