Cory Morgan: Report on NS Massacre Should Have Given Woke Politics a Miss and Stuck With the Facts

On April 18, 2020, Gabriel Wortman went on a violent 12-hour rampage leaving 22 people dead and three injured in Nova Scotia. The incident was marked with panic, miscommunication, and signs of outright incompetence from the RCMP as they tried to get the situation under control.

An inquiry into what happened was needed, and we got one.

Welcome to Britain’s Hungry Twenties

The young are suffering the most

Last spring, Elsie, a 77-year-old widow asked ITV’s Good Morning Britain to solicit any advice that Boris Johnson might have about coping with poverty. It was duly explained to the then-Prime Minister that Elsie only ate one meal a day and passed her hours going round and round on the local bus to avoid turning on the heating at home. Squirming, Johnson said that it was only thanks to his decisions that she enjoyed a freedom bus pass — and jaws dropped nationwide.

Terry Glavin: Beijing apologists have conjured a racist bogeyman. It’s total nonsense

Among the various types of outlandish and sinister responses to the recent revelations about Beijing’s emissaries interfering in the 2019 and 2021 federal elections to the purpose of re-electing a Liberal government, the conjuring of bogeymen has been especially destructive to any clear public consensus about what’s at stake here, and what’s really going on.

‘Trans Day of Vengeance’ rally in DC canceled in wake of Nashville school shooting

The “Trans Day of Vengeance” protest set to take place in Washington, D.C., has been canceled in the aftermath of the Nashville school shooting.

Our Rights DC, the activist collective behind the event, announced Thursday that the April 1 protest would not be taking place due to safety concerns.

“This action will not be taking place Saturday due to a credible threat to life and safety,” the organization wrote on social media. “The safety of our trans community is first priority.

Of Beavis, Burritos, and Bombs: DOJ Nabs Alleged Pro-Abortion Terrorist

Hoping for reformation on his alleged pyromaniac tendencies asks for too much.

The one-way ticket to Guatemala became a one-way ticket to the slammer.

The Justice Department announced an arrest earlier this week at Logan Airport in Boston in the firebombing of a Wisconsin Family Action office in Madison, Wisconsin, last May. The terroristic act came in anticipation of the Dobbs v. Jackson decision that allowed states to restrict abortion throughout pregnancy.

Beware the AI voice thieves

After years of blissful indifference, finally I’m scared of AI. I’ve been complacent, slept soundly beside my husband as he stares and mutters, sleepless with anxiety about robots. But now I’m frightened too. What happened was this.

A few weeks ago a friend received a phone call from her son, who lives in another part of the country. ‘Mum, I’ve had an accident,’ said the son’s voice. She could hear how upset he was. Her heart began to pound. ‘Are you OK? What happened?’ she said.

Massachusetts creates a system of decentralized surveillance in public schools

A phenomenon is sweeping many Massachusetts public schools: the “bias incident report.” The inner-ring Boston suburb of Newton (home of Jake Auchincloss, the congressman for the Fourth District) hosts an online portal where a person can report any cases of “hate speech, bias, or discrimination.” Another wealthy suburban district, Acton-Boxborough, lays out a protocol for the reporting and investigation of “all incidents of bias, including prejudice, bigotry, microaggressions and cultural appropriation.” Belmont, Lexington, and Wellesley are among other elite suburbs with these kinds of protocols, though their emergence is not confined to wealthy districts: Boston Public Schools has its own “equity” reporting form.

Reid: Attacking Bragg Is Dog Whistle That Blacks Controlled by Jews

After news broke Thursday that the leftist prosecutor Alvin Bragg and his Grand Jury voted to indict Trump, Florida Republican governor Ron DeSantis took to Twitter with a statement defending Trump and letting Americans know he would not help extradite the former President to New York to be arraigned. This news triggered the always unhinged MSNBC ReidOut host Joy Reid who used to occasion to claim DeSantis’s statement was a dog whistle that African Americans like Bragg are controlled by Jewish millionaires.

Leadership Crisis in America

America is in crisis. More and more Americans are increasingly distrustful of America’s leadership across the board. In one of the latest surveys, Pew Research found only 21% of respondents said they “just about always” or “most of the time” – 2% and 19% respectively — trusted the government to do the right thing. In the immediate aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, that number was 49%. These numbers should frighten everyone. It is hard to imagine how a country functions effectively if only 21% of its citizens believe they can trust their government to do the right thing most of the time. What does this mean and why are the numbers so low?
