On Thursday, the New York Times reported that the administration of President Joe Biden is allowing the Islamic Republic of Iran access to $6 billion of its frozen assets and releasing a number of imprisoned Iranians in exchange for the release of five American hostages. In the battle between the government’s responsibility to national interest and individuals, individuals appear to have triumphed.
The world has moved too far to the left and the liberal politics endorsed by many mainstream politicians only work to serve the elite and undermine working-class values, John Lydon, the former lead vocalist of the English punk band Sex Pistols, has claimed.
In a damning indictment of the current political landscape across Europe, Lydon, who fronted the band that many consider to have been the forefathers of punk, took aim at the “condescending” symbolic politics employed by self-proclaimed progressives.
Hawaii had the world’s fanciest natural disaster warning system on the planet. It also had an ongoing firebug problem, and recent academic study warning that the place was very vulnerable to fire catastrophes.
Somehow, none of that figured in the government’s fire plan. The firebug is still out there. The conditions created for big fires, such as the proliferation of non-native grasses, remain on Maui. And the fancy emergency warning system somehow didn’t work.
Stamping out the toxic masculinity from your teenage boy before it’s too late.
HuffPost Personal recently posted an opinion piece titled “I Took My 15-Year-Old Son To See ‘Barbie’ Because I’m Worried He Could Become Ken,” which at first I understandably took to be satire. But no, progressivism is often simply a parody of itself, and that is the case with this HuffPost piece. Beyond its unintentional entertainment value, however, it’s a revealing look into the mindset of feminists who wrestle with the misfortune of having borne one or more male children instead of daughters with whom they can bond over their shared oppression under the boot heel of – ugh – men.
Despite a polling surge, the group has major ideological differences
According to a Politico report, “Right-wing and Eurosceptic parties are set to surge in the next European election at the expense of centrist parties.”
Politico‘s polling analysis predicts that parties belonging to the European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) group could come third in next year’s European Parliamentary elections — they’re currently neck-and-neck with the liberal Renew Europe (RE) group, which is predicted to lose seats.
The arrest of a 16-year-old autistic girl for a ‘homophobic public-order offence’ raises some troubling questions.
Is it a crime to call a police officer a lesbian? Now there’s a question I never thought I’d have to pose. But following the release of shocking footage, showing a 16-year-old autistic girl being arrested by seven police officers over a ‘homophobic public-order offence’, it’s one that desperately needs to be answered.
The public prosecutor’s office in Frankfurt has launched an investigation into an incident that saw members of the left-globalist Antifa issue veiled incitements to violence against Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) candidates standing for the upcoming Hessian state elections after publishing their private home addresses.
The action, which gave rise to widespread condemnation, also prompted—likely for reasons having to do with optics—sharp disapproval from the Federal Ministry of the Interior, headed by Nancy Faeser, who previously wrote for an Antifa magazine managed by an organization with links to far-left extremism.
Americans on the whole have remained largely unmoved by the testimony given at a special hearing of the House Oversight Committee on whether the government was covertly aware or in possession of alien technology and alien life.
According to two polls of 1,500 U.S. adults, conducted on behalf of Newsweek by Redfield & Wilton Strategies before and after the UFO hearing in late July, fewer Americans are now as sure about the claim that the federal government is in possession of an alien craft, and slightly more people now believe that the government knows more than it is letting on.
KYIV, Ukraine — A first group of six Ukrainian pilots is not expected to complete training on the U.S.-made F-16 before next summer, senior Ukrainian government and military officials said, following a series of delays by Western partners in implementing an instruction program for the sophisticated fighter jet.
The timeline reflects the disconnect between Ukraine’s supporters, who envision F-16s as a key tool in the country’s long-term defense, and Kyiv, which has desperately requested that the jets reach the battle space as soon as possible, viewing them as critical for the current fight against occupying Russian forces.

There doesn’t seem to be a day that goes by when people aren’t talking about housing, or the lack of it. Or the fact that in this country it is so damn expensive.
Everyone has a solution, but no one has the solution. It’s all the gatekeepers’ fault, says federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre. More supply will help bring down prices, insists Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, echoing what so many maintain is the answer.
An interesting piece discussing the many & various fees developers must pay to build a condo.
While there is lots of blame to go round Trudeau’s unwarranted mass immigration scam remains the primary culprit. That alone creates stress throughout our institutions and infrastructure.
As NewsBusters reported Thursday evening, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer appeared on CNN’s The Lead with Jake Tapper and laid out the evidence he had so far that pointed to President Biden being involved in his family’s “sleazy” (Jake Tapper’s word) business dealings. It broke open the floodgates of cable coverage as CNN and MSNBC (36 minutes and 37 seconds combined) reacted by claiming Comer had nothing at all. This was all before U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland elevated U.S. Attorney David Weiss to special counsel status to investigate Hunter Biden further.
A government-issued central bank digital currency (CBDC) would face barriers to adoption and require “significant and sustained” investment by the Bank of Canada (BOC), according to a new report.
“As a practical matter achieving wide adoption, acceptance and use of a central bank digital currency could be challenging because most Canadians have access to several methods of payment,” said the Aug.10 report from the BOC, which was first obtained by Blacklock’s Reporter.

“If people are asking us to slash, what does that mean? Does that mean slashing the skilled workers that we need to actually build those houses? Slash family reunification, which can be devastating for the mental health and well-being of the families that are already here?”
We need to legalize the Tar and Feathering of idiots like Miller.
