The South Is Being Flooded by Leftugees

Now southerners are sitting in traffic — and that’s a good thing.

It was a Capitol Hill press spokesman job for a conservative Florida Congressman that got me to Washington, D.C. in 1982, where I contracted no Potomac Fever whatever. JFK was right when he described Washington as a city of Southern efficiency and Northern charm — and I was there for the good years when the Gipper was dozing in the White House and it appeared the nation was returning to some semblance of sanity.

I’ve never seen so many people per square yard as in that bloated company town. Self-importance is pandemic there. To those who asked about my D.C. experiences on my return to Planet Earth, I replied, “I’d like to buy those people up there for what they’re worth and sell them for what they think they’re worth.”

Why Don’t We Want a War with Iran?

Every discussion about the current Middle East conflict begins with the mandatory mantra, “We don’t want war with Iran.” Why not? That question is rarely asked.

Iran has declared war on the United States — militarily, legally, diplomatically, morally and politically. They have engaged in repeated casus belli (legal causes for war) since the mullahs took Americans hostage in 1979. Since that time, they have used their surrogates to attack American targets. We are entitled to respond militarily, as we are doing. But we are also entitled to go much further and treat them as aggressors who have effectively declared war on us. We are entitled to destroy their capacity to continue to wage war against us and our allies. The policy question in not whether we have a right to wage war against Iran. It is whether it is in our interest to do so.

Mexican cartels are among the organized-crime groups being investigated for smuggling people to Canada, a committee of MPs looking into the issue heard Wednesday.

The RCMP told the House of Commons immigration committee that people trying to make it to Canada were vulnerable and that “organized criminals of all stripes – Mexican cartels included – will exploit that.”

Toronto Star Columnist Shree Paradkar Presents Hamas Propaganda As Fact

In her eighth column castigating Israel since October 7, Shree Paradkar is back. The Toronto Star columnist, who only recently interrupted her streak of non-stop anti-Israel articles with a single hiatus on another topic, has returned with a new commentary entitled: “Where are Canada’s leading health voices when it comes to Gaza?”

Published February 6, Paradkar’s column assailed the “silence” of Canadian medical organizations over the war in the Gaza Strip, calling on them to “push governments to demand justice,” namely by “pushing the government to at least demand a ceasefire.”

Most border agency criminal investigators lack basic training, audit says

Most criminal investigators tasked with hunting down crimes at Canada’s ports and borders in recent years have lacked basic training, says a newly released audit report from the Canada Border Services Agency.

The report, posted on the CBSA website late last week, lands just as border officials, politicians, police and industry representatives meet today in Ottawa to discuss plans to tackle the rising number of car thefts over the past two years. The border agency’s ability to catch stolen cars before they’re shipped overseas is expected to be one of the main topics of discussion.

As auto theft summit begins, tougher penalties are on the table: Trudeau

With the number of stolen cars in Canada skyrocketing, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he is considering stiffer penalties for auto theft.

It’s an idea Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre also proposed this week to crack down on what’s become a national epidemic.

Trudeau raised the possibility of harsher punishments during his opening remarks at the national summit on combatting on auto theft, which began Thursday in Ottawa.

I bet the LPC consider the export of stolen vehicles to be good for the environment.

Liberal, Bloc Québécois and NDP MPs suddenly suspended parliamentary hearings related to ArriveCan and contracting misconduct allegations Wednesday after reading what one Liberal described as a “scary” secret preliminary report by a federal investigator.

Drag queen workshop for 11-year-olds ‘should be cancelled’, parents demand

A drag queen workshop for children as young as 11 in France has sparked a petition for its cancellation signed by more than 1,000 parents.

The class, designed to teach children how to dress, walk and perform like a drag artist, is being hosted by a children’s centre near Bordeaux.

The course is available for sign-ups from children between the ages of 11 and 17 in the city of Mérignac.

Drag Queens have no business in schools or around children in any setting for that matter.

Supreme Court slammed by “anti-zionist” Black activists working with Michaëlle Jean Foundation after being ‘disinvited’ from presentation over posts on Israeli-Hamas conflict

OTTAWA—A group of Black anti-racism activists were dropped from a meeting at the Supreme Court of Canada because of concerns over their online posts about the Israel-Palestine conflict.

The researchers and advocates who were working with the Michaëlle Jean Foundation say they were “disinvited” from a Jan. 15 presentation about an anti-Black racism project after Chantal Carbonneau, the top court’s registrar, told the former governor general the court was concerned about pro-Palestinian “tweets, likes and comments” on their social media that had made law clerks feel “unsafe” and harmed their mental health.

My Fave Line – El Jones, a poet, activist and political science professor at Mount Saint Vincent University in Halifax, and DeRico Symonds, director of justice strategy with the African Nova Scotian Justice Institute, also objected to what Jones described as “a granular level of surveillance”  by the court of their social media accounts.

The idiots were posting on twitter but it’s racist oppression to read their tweets?
