Infamous race-baiter and MSNBC weekend host Al Sharpton lashed out at Republicans and Congressman James Comer (R-KY) during Monday’s Morning Joe, because the latter expressed concern that Democratic vice presidential nominee Governor Tim Walz (MN) was elected by and promoted anti-capitalist special interests, including China. According to Sharpton, the GOP ideals Comer was promoting were somehow racist and “as outdated as bell bottom pants.”

In response to mounting immigration challenges and high youth employment rates, the federal government has finally decided to tighten its Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP).
Starting Sept. 26, the government will suspend the processing of Labour Market Impact Assessments for the Low-Wage stream of the TFWP in specific census metropolitan areas. This suspension will apply to cities where the unemployment rate is 6% or higher, though the exact locations have yet to be disclosed. While exceptions will be made for sectors critical to food security — such as primary agriculture, food processing, and fish processing — the food service industry will not be spared from these changes.
If you want to reach a large audience, you should consider running a commercial during next year’s Super Bowl. Of course, that’ll cost you roughly $7 million for 30 seconds of airtime, so I hope you have deep pockets.
But here’s something you might not have considered: I can get you an audience the exact same size as the Super Bowl for a mere fraction of the cost. Seriously! If the only metric you care about is reaching the greatest number of eyeballs, you can replicate the Super Bowl’s reach for mere pennies on the dollar: Just buy a bunch of ads on the top 50 or so “adult content” sites.
EV sales in North America face new market realities and automakers are shifting their production to meet actual, rather than anticipated demand. After being encouraged by government policy to invest tens of billions of dollars to transition to electric vehicles, companies are rapidly changing gears.
As Sam Fiorani, Vice President of AutoForecast Solutions observed in March , “Getting the first 10 per cent of the electric vehicle market is relatively easy with a good product and a market that wants that product. The next 90 per cent will be much harder to convert.”
United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres warned Tuesday that the “climate crisis” threatens the lives of humans all over the world due to rising sea levels and flooding.

On Tuesday, when Doris Grinspun, the CEO of the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario, told CBC that Ontario’s decision to close 10 supervised drug consumption sites is “a death sentence for people that use substances,” the federal Conservatives were quick to attack her.
Sebastian Skamski, a spokesman for Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, slammed her on X: “CBC’s so called ‘expert’ (with 23 letters behind her name) deems Trudeau’s crime ridden drug dens ‘essential’ & equates them to cancer treatment centres. These are the WACKO ‘experts’ Trudeau uses to defend his drug disaster. These are the WACKO ‘expert’ voices media peddles.”
Al-Qaeda-linked militants kill up to 300 people in Burkina Faso’s ‘worst terrorist attack’
Militants linked to al-Qaeda have claimed responsibility for massacring as many as 300 people in Burkina Faso in what is thought to be the country’s worst terrorist attack.
Gunmen opened fire on civilians and soldiers who were digging trenches for use by the army in Barsalogho commune, in Sanmatenga Province.
Unverified videos, claimed to be of the aftermath, showed bodies piled around the unfinished trenches.

Canada draws criticism for ignoring local Jew-hatred, condemning it abroad
The Canadian government condemned the Saturday bombing outside the Beth Yaakov synagogue in the seaside resort town of La Grande-Motte in southern France.
The attack “is a reminder that antisemitism is not a relic of the past—it is a reality experienced by Jewish communities around the world,” the government stated on Sunday. “Canada unequivocally condemns this terrifying attack and stands with France against antisemitism.”
A shocking partisan switch is underway in the stratosphere of the tech titans: The industry known for its wokeness is betting big bucks on a Republican.
Last week, former President Donald Trump gave a thumbs-up to the notion of teaming up with billionaire innovator Elon Musk if he wins in November. Hours later, Musk posted a message on X: “I am willing to serve.”
Elon Musk for commerce secretary? Or perhaps for the newly created position of free speech czar?
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau sought to reframe public opinion about his unpopular government Monday by pointing out Canada has the strongest economic performance of the G7, reminding Canadians he has provided well-liked initiatives and expressing a willingness to reverse course on issues of concern such as immigration.
But Trudeau had little to say when asked about the biggest issue facing his party: his unpopular leadership.
It’s number 3 and if you believe otherwise you’re dangerously gullible.
