New Jersey mom Angela Reading didn’t expect a single Facebook post would deem her a “security threat” in the opinion of U.S. military officials.
But it has, military documents confirm.
“They’ve created this image of me—that I’m some sort of domestic terrorist—because I don’t want sexual posters hanging on the wall in an elementary school,” she told The Epoch Times.
In 1991, Japan began its lost decade — in 2014, Toronto entered one of its own. This is when John Tory’s election as mayor initiated a yawning stretch of undeniable decline. Perhaps, with his resignation, the city still has a chance.
On Friday night, shockwaves reverberated across the country as the Toronto Star first reported Tory engaged in an affair with a 31-year-old staffer. Then, just about an hour later, Tory did something politicians simply don’t do anymore: resign.
On the surface, it was a stunning turn of events for a mayor whose entire brand was being boring. After the tumultuous Rob Ford years, scandal-weary Torontonians would’ve elected drywall if they could. In Tory, they elected the next best thing.
On February 8, 2023, while arguing on behalf of fired NYC workers who declined covid vaccination, attorney John Bursch stated in open court that unvaccinated teachers in New York City were flagged with problem codes in their personnel files, and when that occurred “their fingerprints are sent with that flag to the FBI and the New York Criminal Justice Services.”

The news out of Turkey and Syria is horrible. As of the time of writing, the death toll from the earthquakes there has reached more than 23,000 and no one thinks it has peaked.
The devastation is overwhelming. It is almost impossible to reconcile the piles of rubble with the apartment buildings, places of worship and historical treasures they once were, even with the graphic photos of before and after provided by those on the ground.
Why are western nations always expected to bail out Muslim states?
Quake Devastation Tied to Turkey’s Failure to Enforce Building Codes
ISTANBUL — Turkey has for years tempted fate by not enforcing modern construction codes while allowing — and in some cases, encouraging — a real estate boom in earthquake-prone areas, experts say.
The lax enforcement, which experts in geology and engineering have long warned about, is gaining renewed scrutiny in the aftermath of this week’s devastating earthquakes, which flattened thousands of buildings and killed more than 22,700 people across Turkey and Syria.
“This is a disaster caused by shoddy construction, not by an earthquake,” said a professor of emergency planning at University College London, David Alexander.

UPDATE: Nothing to see here folks.
Moments ago, airspace over Montana was shut down over what is likely another aircraft that is going to be shot down. This comes just hours after Canadian PM Justin Trudeau ordered another craft to be shot down over Canada.
Many are asking if something bigger is about to happen.

The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) has shot down an unidentified object in Canadian airspace, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Saturday.
“I ordered the take down of an unidentified object that violated Canadian airspace. [NORAD] shot down the object over the Yukon. Canadian and U.S. aircraft were scrambled, and a U.S. F-22 successfully fired at the object,” Trudeau said in a statement on Twitter.
“I spoke with President Biden this afternoon. Canadian Forces will now recover and analyze the wreckage of the object,” he said.
Junior ordered squat. Biden’s handlers took pity & decided to let him sound important.
Watchdog groups have raised concerns over the State Department bankrolling a “disinformation” tracking group that is secretly blacklisting and trying to defund conservative media outlets.
The Washington Examiner revealed on Thursday that the Global Disinformation Index, a British organization with two affiliated U.S. nonprofit groups, is hauling in cash with the intent of defunding and shutting down disfavored speech. Now, several watchdogs are calling out the State Department for funding this group , which is feeding its blacklist to major ad companies.
Actress Danielle Deadwyler missed out on an Oscar nomination this year for her performance in Till despite Hollywood pundits predicting she was a lock. Now the actress is blaming the snub on a combination of racism and sexism — or “misogynoir,” the woke term meaning prejudice against black women.
Married Toronto mayor, 68, resigns over affair with staffer, 31, but blames ‘mistake’ on pressure of COVID as he begs for forgiveness from his wife of 40-years
Toronto Mayor John Tory abruptly resigned late Friday after admitting to an extramarital affair with a 31-year-old former staffer.
The 68-year-old Canadian politician was caught in the messy affair with a woman less than half his age who worked as a mayoral advisor. The woman’s name has not been revealed, but their relationship reportedly ignited during the COVID-19 pandemic and was made public by The Toronto Star.
During a news conference, Tory admitted to the betrayal but did not identify his ex-lover, their courtship ended earlier this year. He said the employee has since left City Hall.

I remember when this sort of thing wasn’t an expected part of daily life in TO.
I believe this was Keymaster who has set free the demons that seek Toronto’s destruction – first victim Mayor Tory.

IN LAST week’s column, I wrote about BP’s warning that the world would still be needing fossil fuels in three decades’ time. The Telegraph reported the claim of their Chief Economist Spencer Dale that the world would still be reliant on fossil fuels for a fifth of its energy in 2050, despite adopting radical climate policies, according to BP’s latest Energy Outlook.
It turns out this forecast was Alice in Wonderland stuff.
