“Starmer is No Churchill”: Trump Ramps Up Attack on PM

Donald Trump tonight launched an extraordinary attack on Sir Keir Starmer, saying: ‘This is not Winston Churchill we are dealing with.’

The US President delivered a withering verdict on the Prime Minister as he continued to fume at Sir Keir for failing to back US and Israeli strikes on Iran.

In comments that immediately plunged the so-called ‘special relationship’ into an unprecedented crisis, Mr Trump declared that he was ‘not happy’ with the PM and accused him of being ‘very, very uncooperative’.

Why the Mexican cartels may soon turn to Canada to escape chaos after killing of Jalisco boss El Mencho

Canadians may need to brace themselves for violent Mexican drug cartels moving their operations north to escape the war on drugs in Mexico.

“There is a good, strong possibility of that,” former U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agent Charles Noonan said in an interview.

“Manufacturing in Canada makes sense,” Noonan said. “In the next six months to a year, you could see a surge in the drug labs.”

Is it a crime to mock politicians in Germany?

On 23 February 2026, police in Heilbronn, a city in south-west Germany, opened a criminal investigation into a retired man. His alleged crime? Calling chancellor Freidrich Merz ‘Pinocchio’. No threats. No incitement. Just a blunt, rather amusing suggestion that Germany’s national leader tells lies. Welcome to Germany in 2026, where mocking a politician is now a police matter.

HILL: From proud nation to managed decline — the Canada I no longer recognize

Over a month ago, I decided to try writing a book. Other than hundreds of guest newspaper columns and myriad speeches on enumerable topics over the past forty years, I am not a writer. I have had no formal education to prepare me to undertake such a daunting task. Indeed, I only achieved a grade twelve diploma way back in 1970, largely due to the constant and unrelenting encouragement, and at times direct intervention, of my mother. Given this, you’d be forgiven for asking, why?

What could motivate someone like me to accept such a challenge?

How Trump assassination attempts played into his decision to attack Iran

President Donald Trump for the first time acknowledged a personal dimension to his decision to attack Iran, citing the country’s efforts to assassinate him in 2024 as a factor in ordering the joint U.S.-Israeli operation that killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

“I got him before he got me,” Trump said in an interview on Sunday night with ABC News. “I got him first.”

Did Carney go too far in offering ‘support’ for U.S. strikes against Iran?

Every prime minister is called upon, at one point or another, to comment on the actions of an American president. For Mark Carney, still less than a year on the job, there have already been several such moments.

The latest moment of necessity arrived this past weekend, when the United States and Israel launched new attacks on Iran.

The response, a six-paragraph statement in the names of Carney and Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand, has raised questions with which the prime minister may have to wrestle.

Oh yes CBC Carney was far too harsh on the murderous Mullah regime!

Trump’s Way of War

Trump’s doctrine is simple: strike first at the guilty, strike hard from afar, skip the nation-building, and end wars on America’s terms.

War is the use of arms to settle differences—tribal, political, religious, cultural, and material—between organized groups. It is unchanging. The general laws of armed conflict stays immutable, given the constancy of human nature.

However, the manner in which war is conducted remains fluid. New weapons, tactics, and strategies elicit counterresponses in an endless cycle of tensions between defensive and offensive superiority.

That said, has President Trump introduced a novel way of waging Western war against America’s foreign enemies?

Mark Carney’s government needs to give us the full truth about our involvement in Iran

Canadian Forces exchange officers working with the U.S. military were “very likely” involved at some level in planning the weekend strikes on Iran, a former Canada major-general has warned.

If true, this should raise alarm bells for Canadians because it means Ottawa’s insistence that Canada is “not involved” in this operation is not just implausible, it’s misleading.

Canada is not likely trusted to work on such matters given our PM’s fancy for Beijing.

Americans Are Skeptical of the Iran Strikes. That’s a Good Thing.

A 47-year war comes to a head — and a wary nation waits.

Initially, there was polling which indicated that more Americans were for the airstrike campaign, which took out Iranian tyrant Ali Khamenei and several of his top lieutenants, not to mention a host of key political, military, and intelligence facilities, and continues in a clear effort to facilitate regime change in that beleaguered country.

But polling since indicates that isn’t the consensus. More respondents indicate they’re opposed to President Trump’s decision to unleash the whirlwind on the Iranian regime than for it.

Brookfield ‘strategic partner’ wins big in India deal

But it wasn’t the first time the two men were instrumental in getting together for a major business deal.

Why Are So Many Nurses Left-Wing?

Psychologist Derald Wing Sue’s racialist ideas have deeply influenced the helping professions.

National Nurses United has a message for the White House: “ICE messed with the wrong profession.” After intensive-care nurse Alex Pretti was killed in Minneapolis last month, the union’s members called U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement a “fascist, terrorizing, and lawless paramilitary force violently enforcing a white supremacist agenda.” In another statement, the union called federal immigration enforcement agencies one of America’s “top public health threats,” adding to a string of similar declarations it made about racism, climate change, and Israeli “apartheid.”

The helping professions—occupations like therapy, social work, and nursing—have increasingly drifted from their traditional roles as carers and embraced social-justice advocacy. These fields have long leaned left and female, but the skew has recently intensified, following broader trends in academia. Progressives now vastly outnumber conservatives, creating an echo chamber that has radicalized a segment of the workforce.

Contempt for Donald Trump aside, this war may give Iranians a shot at freedom

Iran will wage retaliatory war until the last cruise and ballistic missile is expended, the last Shahab, Fattah, Sejjil, Soumar. The last explosive-packed suicide drone. The last Revolutionary Guard soldier still standing. The last slain protester.

And if Iran had a nuclear bomb, there’s little reason to believe that, facing annihilation of the theocratic regime, it wouldn’t have pushed that launch button as well.
