German Greens Shift Blame to Supermarkets As Farmer Protests Rage

Green Party political efforts to spin Germany’s ongoing farmers’ demonstrations as solely caused by  profiteering supermarkets have been dismissed as a cheap diversionary tactic.

On a fourth consecutive day of protests, the Green leadership responded to the farmers by blaming the greed of the country’s major supermarket chains rather than the government’s Net Zero-related policies. Green MEP Anna Cavazzini cited “market power” as causing the low prices open to German farmers. This follows crudely engineered media smears tying the demonstrations to the ‘far right.’

Chaos Erupts in Hearing of Ottawa Detective as Lawyers File Police Report on Head of Professional Standards Unit

OTTAWA—A day after the head of Ottawa Police Service’s (OPS) Professional Standards Unit was accused of sending a “threatening” email to Constable Helen Grus—an OPS detective accused of discreditable conduct after investigating the vaccination status of the mothers of deceased infants—the constable’s lawyers filed a police report in the middle of a hearing.

“If I may stand, I’m a witness to a crime and I’m filing a police report right now. I’m an officer of the court,” lawyer Blair Ector abruptly said during a police disciplinary hearing in Stittsville, Ont., on Jan. 11.

Hunter’s Calculated Hijinks

Regarding the Hunter Circus on Capitol Hill on Wednesday, Noah Rothman has a great column on the contemptuousness of the president’s contemptible son. Our reporter David Zimmermann has a report that’s worth your time, too. (I wrote an opinion piece on it for Fox News yesterday.)

Noah is right that the Oversight Committee Democrats’ defense of Hunter is frivolous. They claim that since the subpoena demanded Hunter’s appearance for testimony and since he showed up yesterday claiming to be prepared to testify, the contempt is “cured” (meaning, the House should deem the initial failure to comply as rectified by subsequent compliance). But a contempt can conceivably be cured only by compliance with the terms of the directive that has been flouted — in this instance, an Oversight Committee subpoena. I say “conceivably” because belated compliance with a subpoena is a cure only if it would put the investigative body in the same position that it would be in if compliance had been timely. (For instance, if the delay causes investigators to lose access to evidence, then belated compliance is not a cure.)

UFO whistleblower held secret talk with ‘Wall St bigwigs’ and CIA officials in Manhattan – where he claimed US was in possession of 40ft Tardis-like craft that was ‘the size of a football field when you stepped inside’

A UFO whistleblower shared new details of a Tardis-like craft in government possession during a secret meeting in New York City.

Decorated former Air Force intelligence officer David Grusch claims his sources worked on a 40-foot UAP that ‘was the size of a football field’ when they stepped inside, according to an attendee at the event.

The object could manipulate both space and time and use and could harness enough energy to power 70,000 homes a year, the source said.


NTK – Need to know

Bryce and Ross begin 2024 with a quick look back at the big events of last year: David Grusch’s revelations and the gutting of the Schumer Amendment to the Defense bill. Then they look ahead to this year and an upcoming House Oversight Committee hearing, Lue Elizondo’s book and Grusch’s op-ed piece on the heels of the US government slightly loosening what he’s able to reveal. And Ross drops a big hint about what could be a very big story: new data from the James Webb Space Telescope.

What a secret far-right meeting reveals about the AfD

It sounds like a scene from a dystopian TV drama: in a country hotel west of Berlin, far-right politicians met neo-Nazi activists and sympathetic businesspeople to discuss a ‘masterplan’ for Germany that involves the forced deportations of millions from the country. But this is no fiction. According to reports in the German media, such a meeting took place last November. These revelations will do little to calm the tumultuous political waters in Germany.

Around two dozen people met at the picturesque lakeside hotel in Potsdam, according to the news outlet Correctiv, which published a detailed report of its undercover investigation. Given the explosive content discussed in speeches between meals, secrecy was paramount for the organisers. Members were invited by a letter seen by Correctiv and the Guardian. The stated purpose of the meeting: the presentation of a ‘masterplan’, presented by ‘none other’ than Martin Sellner.

Yeah, No – We’re Not Ready to Forgive Bud Light

Remember how we were boycotting Bud Light for trying to impose the cultural values of your standard Chardonnay-swilling divorced shut-in cat lady upon America? As you recall, Bud Light decided that it would celebrate some ugly dude who pretends to be an even uglier woman as some sort of hero, and then compounded it by having its wine woman – it’s always liberal wine women – executive explain that its consumers are a bunch of knuckle-dragging savages who are too stupid to understand the nuances of today’s society, which apparently means pretending dudes are chicks. It was obnoxious and gratuitously insulting to its audience and just caught fire. We are fed up with having giant faceless corporations trying to impose their garbage values on us, and Bud Light happened to step into the kill zone. And it got crushed.

The ‘white rage’ that wasn’t

I suspect many of us can remember former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley testifying alongside Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on June 23, 2021 at a House Armed Services Committee hearing. In this setting, Milley was asked about reports that the U.S. Military Academy at West Point taught critical race theory along with a seminar on “white rage.”

Pope’s “Common Dreams” With Marxists Denies Persecution Nightmare

The pope’s ten predecessors knew that Marxism was radically incompatible with Catholicism.

In a Vatican reception on Wednesday, Pope Francis encouraged a Marxist-Christian dialogue group, urging them to keep “dreaming of a better world” and to have “the courage to step outside the box” to create “new paths” for humanity through collaboration.

The Nicaraguan Bishop Rolando Alvarez of Matagalpa was unavailable for comment, as his country’s Marxist government has thrown him in prison on trumped-up treason charges. Similarly, Chinese bishop Peter Shao Zhumin of Zhejiang could not be located for reaction, as the Communist authorities in his country hauled him to jail on January 2nd.

Avi Lewis: Canada has a moral obligation to support South Africa’s genocide case against Israel

Avi Lewis is a filmmaker, associate professor at the University of British Columbia, and member of the Jewish Faculty Network and Independent Jewish Voices.

In the dying days of 2023, a group of prominent Israelis sent a letter to Israel’s Attorney General.

In 11 pages, it documented “extensive and blatant” cases of incitement to genocide in Gaza from Israel’s political and media class. And it demanded that the country’s judiciary do something to stop it.

Is Avi dumb or what?

Oh Canada: Police Warn that Posting Images of Thieves May Violate Their Privacy Rights

While Canada eviscerates the right to free speech and association, some are apparently holding firm on the privacy rights of accused felons to warn homeowners not to post videos of thefts.

In Quebec, the police are now warning citizens not to post their doorbell videos of package thieves because they are, in the words of the spokesmen, “presumed innocent.”

New Ontario Catholic curriculum not perverted enough say perversion advocates

New Ontario Catholic curriculum homophobic and transphobic, advocates say

Advocates warn a new Ontario Catholic school curriculum for family life education, set to be taught in the fall, has homophobic and transphobic undertones.

“It’s a really concerning curriculum,” Kyle Iannuzzi, a member of the 2SLBGTQ+ Advisory Committee(opens in a new tab) within the Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB), told CTV News Toronto.

The new curriculum encompasses topics such as relationships, family structures, as well as sexual education and health. Of particular issue to Iannuzzi is the focus on marriage being an act between a man and a woman and that individuals live within their male and female body.

Trannies do not belong in the curriculum or the schools or anywhere near children.

Toronto police lay ‘unprecedented’ hate crime charge, say man allegedly held ‘terrorist flag’ at protest

Al Quds Day – Queen’s Park Toronto

A Toronto man has been charged with public incitement of hatred after police allege he held a “terrorist flag” during a demonstration last weekend.

Police say the 41-year-old man allegedly waved a flag of “an organization listed as a terrorist group by Public Safety Canada” while marching through the city’s downtown on Sunday.

Speaking at a Toronto Police Services Board meeting Thursday, police Chief Myron Demkiw called the charge “unprecedented,” noting the “very high threshold” to charge anyone with a hate propaganda offence.


I asked a TPS officer one Al Quds Day if waving the Hezbollah flag met the hate crime threshhold. He responded it did not as it was a matter of “Free Speech.”
