DC Comics has announced the end of its woke “Superman: Son of Kal-El” series at New York Comic-Con as sales for the title continue to tank.
The series, by writer Tom Taylor, was launched with great fanfare a year ago but has not stood the test of comic book sales. The series will end after only 18 issues, with its final new book hitting stands in December, according to Bounding Into Comics.
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — New Zealand’s government on Tuesday proposed taxing the greenhouse gasses that farm animals make from burping and peeing as part of a plan to tackle climate change.
The government said the farm levy would be a world first, and that farmers should be able to recoup the cost by charging more for climate-friendly products.
Last month, between September 22 through 25, an annual gun show was held in Great Falls, Montana. Sizable crowds attended the event to check out the various firearms that were for sale. But the gathering was also attended by someone who raised eyebrows among the other attendees. As P. Garner Goldsmith at mrcTV reports, several people noticed someone in a car with Canadian license plates observing the comings and goings of attendees at the show. The man turned out to be a policeman, but not of the American variety. He was a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

An informant working for the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, who smuggled three British schoolgirls into Syria for the Islamic State in 2015, breached the spy service’s rules that prohibit paid recruits from engaging in illegal activities including human trafficking.
Trafficking people is also an offence under the Canadian Criminal Code and an international protocol on the practice of which Ottawa is a signatory.
I bet Justin gives her 10 million courtesy the Canadian Tax Payer. I think both of Shamima’s buddies are dead so the families are likely lawyering up in anticipation of their own Big Pay Day.
There are no current signs that Russia is considering the use of nuclear weapons in the Ukraine war, the head of GCHQ has said.
Like other US and western officials recently, Sir Jeremy Fleming did not suggest there had been any signs of suspicious activity.
Speaking on Radio 4’s Today programme, Sir Jeremy warned that any talk of nuclear weapons was “very dangerous”.
GCHQ would hope to see “indicators” if Russia planned to use them, he said.
“Any talk of nuclear weapons is very dangerous and we need to be very careful of how we are talking about that.
Everyone is Walking Back Biden’s remarks. What a world. Run by the wife of a dementia suffering president and their crackhead son who are all likely compromised by (insert name of favourite Oligarch or Enemy State here).

Earthquake looms as anglers land doomsday fish: ‘We are all going to die!’
This fish allegedly puts the “scale” in “Richter scale.”
The great white shark isn’t the only harbinger of aquatic doom: Fishermen in Mexico are going viral after landing an elusive denizen of the deep that’s rumored to be a sign of impending earthquakes. A video of the alleged oceanic bad omen currently boasts more than 200,000 views on Twitter as viewers worry about a possible seismic catastrophe.

An image of a Nova Scotia RCMP officer wearing a “thin blue line” patch while responding to a self-proclaimed “Freedom Fighters” event this weekend circulated on social media.
It was posted by Twitter user @Seebo429 on Saturday night, among others on social media, with the caption reading: “RCMP checking out the convoy cookout in the valley. What’s that patch on the officer’s chest? I don’t want to get my colours mixed up again.” The post received nearly 400 likes and over 100 retweets.
Justin Trudeau is the preferred choice for prime minister compared with Pierre Poilievre, according to a new Nanos Research poll, though a significant portion of Canadians has nothing good to say about either leader.
If only Mr. Trudeau and Mr. Poilievre were on the ballot, 46 per cent of survey respondents said they would prefer the current Prime Minister, compared with 30 per cent who favoured the Conservative Leader. However, a sizable number of respondents, 19 per cent, didn’t want either to lead the country, and 5 per cent were unsure.
There is good news and bad news. The good news is that, as you may have noticed, the world didn’t end on 4 July 1999. Hence the headline in the Guardian on Monday 5 July 1999: “Nostradamus wrong (please ignore if the world ended yesterday).”
Writing 450 years earlier, the French astrologer seemed to have predicted the end in, for him, unusually date-specific terms: “The year one thousand nine ninety-nine seven month / From the sky shall come a great King of terror / [Shall be] revived the great King of Angolmois. Before and after, Mars [shall] reign as chance will have it.”
It’s a fascinating thing, watching the lightbulbs flicker over the heads of liberal ladies in the wake of the Supreme Court’s Dobbs ruling, which overturned the unconstitutional Roe v. Wade decision.
As pro-abortion activists continue to illegally protest with impunity outside the homes of conservative justices, the mental gymnastics they execute while trying to defend their outrage over a ruling that it seems they are incapable of fully understanding (Dobbs didn’t ban abortion, it simply returned the power to legislate the matter to the states, where it belongs) often leads to a sticky landing.
According to the latest data, black Americans, who make up 13 percent of the population, comprised 60.4 percent of known murder offenders in 2021—a new record!
