The Office for the Protection of the Constitution in the German state of Saxony has formally classified the conservative, antiglobalist Alternative für Deutschland (AfD)—the state’s most popular party—as a “right-wing extremist” outfit. Leading AfD officials say the move is little more than a desperate attempt to drag the party’s name through the mud before next year’s elections.
In today’s ‘oh spare us’ news, the left is having an absolute cow over Israeli troops flushing out Hamas terrorists from their snake holes and then forcing them to strip down to their underwear to prove to that yes, they were surrendering, and no, they didn’t have a gun in their pants or a shiv in their shoes, or a strap-on bomb in their pocket, or a dynamite pack in some orifice, which is a pretty standard military safety precaution.
Proof of Genocide perpetrated at the hands of the @IDF
This is absolutely disgusting!
These poor potential raping and pillaging @hamasrat terrorist bastards better have been given sunblock!

How Soviet propaganda survived the USSR
Antisemitism is on an alarming rise as Israel continues to respond to the Hamas massacres of October 7. But the particular strain of antisemitism that we see today, in which Israel and Jews are cast as oppressors subjugating their Palestinian victims, arose long before the Hamas attack and has roots in a time and place that many no longer consider: the Soviet Union. In fact, the very notion of distinct Palestinian nationhood emerged from a Soviet project devised under the banner of national liberation.
A clash between gunmen from a criminal gang and residents of a small farming community in central Mexico left 14 people dead and seven injured, local authorities said on Saturday.
Dramatic video of the fight on Friday posted on social media showed villagers in cowboy hats with sickles and hunting rifles chasing down suspected gang members amid bursts of automatic gunfire.
The Mexico state governor, Delfina Gómez, and other local leaders condemned the violence. They said it was a product of regional violence that has been slowly brewing for years. She assured local people that maintaining order was among her top priorities.
Attention! Convoy of the Michoacana Family came to collect a fee for planting in Texcaltitlán. The residents could not stand it any longer and confronted the criminals with machetes, stones and sticks. This left a balance of 11 dead – 8 hitmen and 3 farmers. pic.twitter.com/yytSkXkNWt

Europe is in turmoil over the mass migration policies of the EU elites. Migration has become a dominant, divisive issue across the European Union from eastern Germany to southern Italy—and in the UK.
Geert Wilders’ populist PVV party shocked the Brussels ‘bubble’ by finishing first in November’s Dutch elections, after pledging to cut “the asylum and immigration flood to the Netherlands” and ban mosques and Islamic schools. In the same month Dublin was convulsed by riots, sparked by the stabbing of three Irish schoolchildren and a woman by an Algerian-born knifeman. Meanwhile, nervous European cities have witnessed angry pro-Hamas protests by Islamist migrants, aided and abetted by their useful idiots on the Islamoleft.
The government rang up a $769-million bill to provide free hotel rooms and meals for refugees and illegal immigrants this year, according to the Department of Immigration.
Cries of “From London to Gaza, globalise the intifada!” rang out as tens of thousands of pro-Palestine activists marched through the capital on Saturday.
As the crowd wound its way from Bank in the City of London to Whitehall, sections also chanted “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free”, regarded by many Jews as being a hateful call for the destruction of the state of Israel and its replacement with a Palestinian state.
One hand-drawn placard showed a star of David, symbol of the state of Israel, being pushed into the sea, with around it the words “The Final Solution?” – a clear reference to the Holocaust.
The Intifada they call for has already been ‘globalised.’ 9/11, 7/7, Bataclan, Manchester Arena, London Bridge (x2), Westminster Bridge, on and on… https://t.co/XmcduzekgR

Pierre Trudeau was once considered the most divisive prime minister in Canada’s history. His National Energy Policy, Charter of Rights and centralization of power remain controversial to this day.
But, underneath his contrived swashbuckling image was a man of substance. He fought tooth and nail against Quebec separatism, succeeding in keeping the country together when it could have been swept away, landing in the arms of the US. He passionately believed in one Canada.
A group of foreign ministers from the Palestinian Authority, Saudi Arabia and Turkey are in Ottawa today for a quietly planned meeting with Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly to discuss attempts to end the Israel-Hamas war.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau also joined the talks, arranged to see how countries such as Canada can help efforts to secure peace for Palestinians and Israelis, after Hamas militants launched a deadly rampage in Israel on Oct. 7.

Well, there you have it, folks. The hulking leviathan that is Canada’s climate regime is set to grow one size bigger next year with the addition of a cap-and-trade system to loom over the oil and gas industry.
The plan: cut the sector’s emissions by 35 to 38 per cent below 2019 levels by 2030 — without cutting production. Liberal members of government at Thursday’s announcement of the scheme would have you believe this is achievable, in the same way a miracle diet might promise extreme weight loss without cutting calorie intake.

You have seen the video of my daughter Naama Levy. Everyone has. You have seen her dragged by her long brown hair from the back of a Jeep at gunpoint, somewhere in Gaza, her gray sweatpants covered in blood. You may have perhaps noticed that her ankles are cut, that she’s barefoot and limping. She is seriously injured. She is frightened. And I, her mother, am helpless in these moments of horror.
On October 7, Naama had been sleeping at Kibbutz Nahal Oz, and was awakened by the chaotic sound of a missile barrage. At 7 a.m., she sent me a WhatsApp message: “We’re in the safe room. I’ve never heard anything like this.” That was the last I heard from her.
In November, the Florida Board of Governors voted to remove the “Principles of Sociology” from the state’s list of approved general-education courses for public-college students. Sociology professors across the state and in the American Sociological Association (ASA) have argued that the decision will prevent Florida students from learning about social structures and their effects on human behavior. Those critics are wrong. Sadly, academic sociology has devolved into a field of ideologues and activists promoting critical race theory and radical gender ideology. Florida should not include it among its general-education requirements.
It’s the time of year to unwind.
