The dominant issue in the Milton byelection doesn’t seem to be expanded Go-Train service or building Hwy. 13 — it’s Gaza. That’s based on what is being said and what is not being said by candidates and leaders.
Toronto police ask OPP for independent review after Zameer trial
Toronto’s police chief has asked the Ontario Provincial Police to conduct an independent review after a Superior Court judge’s comments during the trial of Umar Zameer.
A statement from the Office of the Chief says Myron Demkiw on Monday asked for a review into officer testimony, conduct, procedures, practices and training, which he said police governance “requires” when the courts raise concerns over police conduct. Demkiw has also ordered a full internal review of all aspects of plainclothes policing, including equipment and procedures for officer and public safety.
Dems’ Anti-Trump Lawfare Pays Compounding Interest
The Democrats’ lawfare campaign against the putative 2024 Republican presidential nominee is paying compound interest. This is illustrated by pretrial rulings in Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s criminal prosecution of Donald Trump.
With the help of an elected progressive Democratic judge, Arthur Engoron, New York attorney general Letitia James managed to get Trump held civilly liable for persistent fraud — to the tune of $454 million (plus continually compounding interest), notwithstanding the absence of fraud victims.
Stalin museum celebrates the local boy made good
Joseph Stalin may have been one of the world’s most bloodthirsty dictators but there is scant mention of this at a museum devoted to his life in his home town in Georgia.
The Stalin Museum in Gori, about 50 miles from Tbilisi, the capital of the Black Sea state, was opened in 1957 next to the small house where the Soviet tyrant was born Iosif Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili in 1878. The two-storey building is easy to find — just walk along Stalin Avenue to Stalin Park and you can’t miss it. Outside stands a Stalin statue.
This is just like a Trudeau museum curated by the CBC would be like.
Will the American aid be too little, too late for Ukraine?
At the last possible moment, after months of prevarication and with Russian troops on the brink of a major breakthrough in Ukraine, the US Congress voted to approve more than $61 billion worth of military assistance for Kyiv on Saturday afternoon. In a vote that a vocal minority of Republicans had desperately attempted to stop through procedural objections and threats to remove Speaker Mike Johnson, 210 Democrats and 101 Republicans finally joined to support Ukraine. A majority of Republicans — 112 Congress members — voted against.
Now Isla Bryson is claiming to be a victim of hate crime
Isla Bryson, Scotland’s most notorious transgender rapist, has claimed to be a victim of ‘hate crime’.
In a letter to prison authorities, seen by the Sunday Mail, Bryson, a man known formerly as Adam Graham, lists a number of supposed indignities he has been made to suffer while serving an eight-year sentence for raping two women. Back in 2023, the tattoo-faced criminal was infamously sent to a women’s prison, HMP Cornton Vale, sparking a huge public outcry. Since he was moved to the all-male wing of HMP Edinburgh, he says he has been denied access to women’s toiletries and make-up, and has been persistently ‘misgendered’ by prison officers. One female prison officer allegedly referred to him as ‘son’, for which she has since apologised.
Inside the Gen Z sex war Would you date a Right-wing man?
Women to the Left, men to the Right. And heaven forbid there is any crossover. These days, young people are floundering in their sex-based political silos wanting different things: girls are still seeking equality and boys miss being the good guys. This isn’t a battle of the sexes — we’re too far apart to fight.
Youth is wasted on the young.
Black Wars of Liberation Come to America
Secretary of State Antony Blinken recently appointed Zakiya Carr Johnson as the State Department’s Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer.
Her mission, according to Blinken, was to help build a workforce that reflects America.
Given that Blinken has previously promoted a politically correct agenda, for example, suggesting that employees avoid gendered terms such as manpower and mother, this comes as no surprise. Blinken justified this diversity effort in terms of national security, saying, “We will continue to pursue this mission aggressively, because recruiting, nurturing, and promoting the most capable workforce possible is critical to our national security.”
Blinken appoints an anti-White, anti-American DEI chief and people wonder at the “Silence”.
How You Know The Joker Is Running Things…
A popular US convenience store chain has been hit with a civil rights lawsuit accusing it of discriminating against minority job seekers because it requires applicants to have no criminal record.
NYPD cops descend on NYU anti-Israel protest and start arresting dozens of students and faculty members who set up ‘Gaza Solidarity’ camp
The NYPD arrested dozens of NYU students and faculty members who have been protesting demanding the university divests from any Israel-related holdings at a ‘Gaza Solidarity; encampment.
Officers clad in riot gear used zip ties to detain protesters, marching them onto police buses after warnings to leave the area were ignored.
The protest, involving hundreds, began at 6am with a group setting up tents at NYU’s Gould Plaza.

Radicalized students at elite universities are the next generation of the ruling class.
For many years, American conservatives used to point out examples of liberal hypocrisy by drawing attention to some offensive or outrageous thing that the Left had done, but that had gone unreported or otherwise tolerated by the media, then saying, “If conservatives had done that, you would have raised hell.” The idea was to shame liberals into reforming themselves to become fair and balanced.
It rarely worked, but it’s not hard to see why it might have done, back when the Left at least paid lip service to liberal principles. That’s ancient history. The reason to do it today—the only reason—is to reveal to the Right how decadent the systems that govern our societies have become, and to make clear the grave challenges before us.
Defund Columbia: Robert Kraft pulls his money as other donors blast ‘f*****g crazy’ anti-Israel mob but staff join students’ campus protest in spiraling crisis
Billionaire Robert Kraft has pulled his financial support from Columbia University, saying he’s lost confidence in the Ivy League school’s ability to protect its students amid anti-Israel protests.
‘The school I love so much – the one that welcomed me and provided me with so much opportunity – is no longer an institution I recognize,’ The New England Patriots’ owner and Columbia graduate said on Monday.
‘I am deeply saddened at the virulent hate that continues to grow on campus and throughout our country.’

Toronto’s police chief has disqualified himself from that job
Here are a few normal, boilerplate things that a police chief might say after a man is found not guilty by a jury of his peers.
“We respect the judicial process and accept the decision reached by the jury.”
“We have the utmost confidence in the court and accept the decision based on the evidence presented.”
