Trump Cannot Ignore the Latest Damning Evidence of Iran’s Pursuit of Nuclear Weapons

Amid concerns that US President Donald J. Trump is backtracking on his pledge to confront Iran over its controversial nuclear programme, new evidence pointing to Iran’s clandestine attempts to develop nuclear weapons should persuade the Trump administration to make the Iran threat one of its top priorities.

The latest evidence that Tehran has spent the past few decades developing nuclear weapons has come in the form of a bombshell report published by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the UN-sponsored body responsible for monitoring Iran’s nuclear activities.

LILLEY: F-35 audit shows incompetence at DND and across Ottawa

The report on the cost of the F-35 from the auditor general is more about incompetence than anything else. It’s also a worrying sign given that Prime Minister Mark Carney just pledged billions in new spending for the Canadian Armed Forces.

The headline from the audit is that the original cost projection to buy 88 F-35 fighter jets was $19 billion and now it’s $27.7 billion, a 46% increase.

Inside Diddy’s bizarre bisexual NBA roleplay

Diddy’s wildest sexual fantasy involved a twisted NBA roleplay – casting himself as Michael Jordan, his ex-girlfriend as Kobe Bryant and the male escort she regularly slept with as Shaquille O’Neal – the ex testified on day two of the fifth week in the disgraced rap mogul’s sex trafficking trial.

‘Jane’, who testified under a pseudonym, said the hip hop mogul’s obsession with ‘cuckold’ scenarios may have been a way to live out his bisexual fantasies without physically engaging with men – because he was ‘too ashamed’ to do so openly.

Jane described the ‘Freak Offs’ she attended during their relationship as filled with extravagant sexual roleplay where participants gave each other nicknames inspired by legendary basketball stars.

Sounds like he’ll like prison.

George Soros anti-ICE ‘plot’ emerges amid LA riots… as ‘paid’ foreign agitators are finally exposed

President Donald Trump’s claim that ‘paid agitators’ are wreaking havoc in Los Angeles has raised questions about the protest groups and dark money flows from billionaires that may be behind the chaos in America’s second-biggest city.

Speaking with reporters on Tuesday, Trump described some LA protestors as ‘paid insurrectionist or agitator or troublemakers,’ suggesting they were financed by clandestine groups, which the president did not name.

His comments heightened scrutiny over the protests, which erupted in downtown LA on Friday in response to federal immigration raids and escalated into clashes with law enforcers, property being vandalized and rampant looting.
