The Secret, sleepy, Service

In A Secret Service agent’s breastfeeding emergency took her away from guarding Trump, my colleague Andrea Widburg brilliantly exposed yet another case of Secret Service (SS) incompetence so egregious it leaves the SS wide open to the accusation they’re purposely creating vulnerabilities that will inevitably lead to Donald Trump’s assassination.

She also wrote about a female SS agent having a psychotic break while guarding Kamala Harris—perhaps understandable–requiring other agents subdue, handcuff and disarm her. Apparently, that wasn’t the first time that woman had behaved in an alarming manner, but equally apparently, nothing was done.

Fake Graves Industry Hits Jackpot As Trudeau Re-Opens Cash Spigot

Following criticism, Ottawa removes funding caps for residential school searches

OTTAWA – The federal government is backtracking on a move to limit funding for searches of former residential school grounds.

Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister Gary Anandasangaree said in a statement Friday the government has heard concerns from Indigenous leaders and communities “loud and clear.”

Communities could previously receive up to $3 million per year through the Residential Schools Missing Children Community Support Fund, but the government had moved to cap funding at $500,000.

Bot campaign backing Pierre Poilievre looks the work of an amateur, experts say

Academics who study social media say a suspected bot campaign associated with Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s recent speaking event in northern Ontario likely was the work of an amateur.

A rapid analysis conducted by Toronto Metropolitan University’s Social Media Lab (SML) concluded the bot campaign does not have the fingerprints of a sophisticated actor, but didn’t say who might have been behind it.

In July, the social media platform X was inundated with posts following Poilievre’s tour of Northern Ontario.

Trudeau promises a stern finger wagging at companies caught abusing the Foreign Worker Scam

Trudeau mulls name-and-shame policy to curb foreign worker abuse

(Bloomberg) — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government is mulling a change to help crack down on abuses of temporary foreign workers — publicly naming individual business managers or owners who violate Canada’s labor rules.

The measure would be part of a broader set of reforms to clean up the country’s migrant labor system, according to people familiar with the matter, speaking on condition they not be identified.

The government is facing heavy criticism for a policy that has made it much easier for companies to bring in temporary foreign workers, or TFWs, and for lax enforcement of rules intended to protect them. Trudeau’s administration, responding to concerns about labor shortages, increased the limits on low-wage TFWs in 2022, allowing firms to hire up to 20% of their staff through that program — with a 30% limit in certain sectors, such as construction.

So Trudeau will let them continue to flood the nation with wage depressing foreigners but promises a stern finger wagging.

Germany: New sabotage warning issued for water supply

German authorities told residents of a town in the west of the country to avoid using or consuming water from the taps on Thursday afternoon amid fears that the water supply had been tampered with.

The warning came after a hole was found in the fence around the supply, which also feeds a nearby military base. The warning was partially lifted on Monday, but residents were told to boil tap water before drinking it.

The incident in the town of Mechernich, in the western state of North Rhine-Westphalia, was discovered after another suspected case of sabotage was reported close to a military base at Cologne airport, not far from the town of Mechernich.
