The residents of a tiny home village in Portland, Oregon are being blamed for a drastic increase in crimes in the neighborhood.
People living in University Park, a North Portland neighborhood, said that ever since the Peninsula Crossing Safe Rest Village appeared, crime rates have skyrocketed.
Portland police data supports this claim, according to KATU.
Despite assertions by a cabinet minister that summer road trips cause wildfires, just under half of the nearly 182,000 kilometres flown by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau so far this year took place during the past three months.
GOP vice presidential nominee and Ohio Senator JD Vance went on the Regime Media’s Sunday public affairs shows and utterly dismantled them for their lack of coverage of the stress that the Biden-Harris administration’s immigration policies have placed upon such towns as Springfield, Ohio, until a Trump-adverse angle can be exploited.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party should be a shoo-in for a parliamentary seat at the southern point of the island of Montreal.
The district has been a stronghold for his party for more than half a century. It was home to another Liberal prime minister a generation ago. The base for a former Liberal justice minister. An easy drive to Mr. Trudeau’s own redoubt in the city.
And yet, days before a special election on Monday to choose the district’s member of Canada’s Parliament, polls show a tight three-way contest. For many lifelong Liberals, the problem is clear: It is Mr. Trudeau himself.
After the second attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump in nine weeks, Republicans reacted to the news.
Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), sounded wistful as he expressed his relief that Trump wasn’t hurt.
Russia completes today its largest military exercises since the fall of the Soviet Union. With naval vessels operating in the Atlantic, Arctic, Pacific, Baltic, Caspian, and Mediterranean, President Putin seeks through his Ocean-24 exercise to divert attention from his stalled war in Ukraine and to remind Communist China and the world that Russia is still a maritime power.
Russia’s defense ministry said that 400 vessels, 120 aircraft and helicopters, and 90,000 personnel, are taking part in the exercise. Even with four Chinese warships and a supply vessel joining maneuvers in the northern Pacific, the Russian numbers seem to be a stretch.
The Houthi missile attack on Israel on Sunday was an important move for the Iranian regime.
The attack was part of Iran’s overall war against Israel in the region, using its proxies, and not simply in a Houthi-centric context. The group claimed to use a “hypersonic” missile, a claim that dovetails with Iran’s claims of developing a hypersonic missile last year. This is very much part of the Iranian multi-front war plan against Israel, a war launched by Hamas on October 7, 2023.
In late August, a tense exchange was caught on camera between Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and a local steel worker in northern Ontario.
As Trudeau reached out for a handshake, the worker refused it, confronting the prime minister instead about his struggle to make ends meet despite having a steady job.
Trudeau responded by listing things his Liberal government has done to help working families, including a national dental care programme and a tariff on Chinese steel that is designed to protect Canadian workers.
The wife of an impeachment witness against former president Trump has been slammed for mocking the latest assassination attempt on the Republican nominee.
Rachel Vindman, wife of retired Lt. Colonel Alexander Vindman, posted on X saying: ‘No ears were harmed. Carry on with your Sunday afternoon.’
Vindman had took aim at the president who was struck in the ear following an assassination attempt in July, two months before the events of Sunday.
Last week, Feed Ontario disclosed that over a million residents in Ontario, Canada’s wealthiest province, sought assistance from food banks over the past year.
A million people.
That’s essentially Nova Scotia’s entire population as a province. This revelation presents a stark contrast when juxtaposed with the situation south of the border in the United States.
Donald Trump was yesterday the target of an assassination attempt while playing golf at his West Palm Beach club in Florida. The attempt comes eight weeks after the former president was shot in the ear in Butler, Pennsylvania.
This sequence of events doesn’t just “raise questions”: it challenges some of the foundational assumptions of American political life. During this latest attempt, a Secret Service agent who advanced ahead of Trump on the course spotted a rifle barrel sticking out from foliage against a chain-link fence. Agents “immediately engaged” — though it’s unclear what that means — and the suspect, thought to be 58-year-old Ryan Routh, fled before eventually being caught by police on a Florida highway. The distance between the would-be assassin and Trump is estimated at around 300 metres.
The media is the problem, they are doing the work of the Deep State which seeks to justify Trump’s murder through the demonization of he and his voters.

There were two sides to the speech Pierre Poilievre gave in front Conservative caucus on Sunday, one in each official language.
For the first 11 minutes, Mr. Poilievre spoke in French, and for almost all of that time he taunted the Bloc Québécois. Then he switched to English and spent 13 minutes needling the NDP. In each case, the subject was Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
In April 2022, a little over a month after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, a stream of middle-aged European and American volunteers were passing through Poland on their way into Ukraine. There was the retired attorney delivering sweets to Ukrainian orphanages; the Irish former French Foreign Legion soldier carrying luggage for refugees, and the Englishman who had moved from France to help rescue pets. One American in his 60s was transporting dead frozen chicks from Poland to a zoo in western Ukraine. They called themselves the “silent army” and the “get-off-the-couch crew”.
Possibility Ryan Wesley Routh Had Informant ‘Scary’: Ex-FBI Leader
The man accused of trying to assassinate Donald Trump may have had inside information on his movements, a former FBI assistant director said.
Chris Swecker told Newsweek that law enforcement will have to establish how Ryan Wesley Routh appeared to know the exact details of when Trump was playing golf at a Florida resort.

A plan to rebuild and modernize two dozen decommissioned Canadian light armoured vehicles for donation to Ukraine is stuck in bureaucratic limbo more than nine months after the defence department handed the vehicles over to an Ontario company that specializes in restoration, CBC News has learned.
Defence Minister Bill Blair signed off on the transfer last January. He said negotiations between Armatec Survivability in Dorchester, Ont., and the Canadian Commercial Credit Corporation (CCC), an arm of the federal government, are still ongoing.
Zelensky loves Justin and Freeland but I suspect he will only accept cash support in future.
Republicans are demanding that Donald Trump receive the same security as Joe Biden after an unprecedented two assassination attempts on the former president in as many months.
The suspected attempt on the life of the Republican candidate at his Florida golf club on Sunday has put his security arrangements under the spotlight once again.
Trump’s round-the-clock protective detail had been bolstered following a shooting at his rally in Pennsylvania in July, during which a bullet grazed his ear.
Nothing to see here.
