Sweden has opted out of a proposal to set up a formal joint investigation team with Denmark and Germany to investigate the recent leaks of the Russian-owned pipelines Nord Stream 1 and 2.
Mats Ljungqvist, the Swedish prosecutor involved in the country’s criminal investigation of the leaks in the Swedish economic zone, told Reuters that the country would not join a Joint Investigation Team from the judicial co-operation agency Eurojust.
President Joe Biden appeared to grab a young girl by her shoulder telling her ‘no serious guys till you’re 30’ while posing for a photograph with the teen and her friends at Irvine Valley College in Irvine, California, on Friday.
The president visited the community college to meet with older adults and tout his administration’s efforts to reduce inflation and drive down costs.
Creepy Joe is at it again

While the Iranian regime is arresting, wounding, torturing and killing protesters, all the Biden administration appears to be concerned with is trying to revive a nuclear deal that will soon give Iran unlimited nuclear weapons capability; lift sanctions against the expansionist regime of Iran thereby pumping billions of dollars into its treasury for further adventurism; build nuclear weapons; provide Russia with still more deadly military equipment; and empower the mullahs even further to oppress and murder their innocent, fed-up civilian population for the “crime” of women showing too much hair. Their mothers must be very proud of them.
A huge fire has broken out at Iran’s notorious Evin prison – where political prisoners and anti-government activists are held.
Gunshots are reported to have been fired as the blaze took hold at the jail in the capital Tehran on Saturday.

Shots are being fired while Evin burns. If, God forbid, political prisoners perish, then this will be an event on the scale of the Cinema Rex fire in Abadan in August 1978 that accelerated the downfall of the Shah. #Mahsa_Amini #IranRevolution2022 pic.twitter.com/hGCiOfbRde

The Navy has acknowledged more than 150 reports of incidents involving ship encounters with unidentified small aircraft systems from 2016 to 2021, according to The Drive’s The War Zone.
The Navy’s Pacific Fleet released 35 reports on various incidents and withheld another 116 reports officials said were classified in response to a Freedom of Information Act request. All of the incident reports had been reported through the OPREP-3 reporting system between 2017 and April 22, 2021.
MOSCOW (AP) — Two volunteer soldiers on Saturday fired at other troops at a Russian military firing range near Ukraine, killing 11 and wounding 15 others, before getting killed, the Russian Defense Ministry said.
The ministry said in a statement that the shooting took place in the Belgorod region in southwestern Russia that borders Ukraine. It said that the two volunteers from an unnamed ex-Soviet nation fired on other soldiers during target practice and were killed by return fire.
The ministry called the incident a terrorist attack.
Mexico is a war zone again. But anyone who believes that’s just Mexico’s problem, think again; American national interests are at unprecedented risk.
Cartels’ smuggling syndicates are at each other’s throats along Mexico’s northern border and in Pacific states known as the Tierra Caliente (Hot Zone) as Mexico sends in its military. The warfare has left hundreds dead and whole city blocks scorched, vehicles burning, and citizens taking shelter from hours-long gun-battles. Millions of Mexicans are readying for worse to come.
David Suzuki goes on profanity-laden rant at federal government news conference
Environmentalist David Suzuki ranted to federal government ministers, media and tourism industry workers at a news conference Friday afternoon in Vancouver.
The event was held to announce federal funding for B.C.’s tourism sector, but Suzuki took the opportunity to speak out about what he calls the government’s lack of action regarding climate change.
“All this bullshit about how you’re trying to encourage the coming together to this beautiful land, what are we doing about this land? We’re not doing the right things to ensure tourism into the future,” said Suzuki.
The tree huggers aren’t just harmless hippies
Nothing produces true believers today quite like the environmental movement. Gluing yourself to London or pouring soup over a priceless painting is all in a day’s work. For your green stunt to stand out, you need to do something eye-catchingly disgusting such as pouring human faeces over a statue of Captain Tom.
It should come as no surprise that the federal government can’t give the opposition parties any details on sanctions enforcement, since it has no idea how many of those on the sanctions list actually hold assets in Canada.
The commander of the Canadian Armed Forces is calling on the country to rally behind its military as it faces an unprecedented personnel crisis that he says is threatening its ability to protect and defend Canada.
“We’re here to defend our way of life, now and into the future,” Gen. Wayne Eyre, chief of the defence staff, said.
“So we need a whole-of-society effort to help us bring the Armed Forces back to where it needs to be for the dangerous world ahead.”
“Woke” is not our way of life.
How an identity-politics-obsessed mob destroyed a young filmmaker’s documentary
At the beginning of director Meg Smaker’s documentary Jihad Rehab, we hear a former Guantanamo detainee saying, “Meg, can I tell you something?” Sure, a woman’s voice says. “In every story there is good and bad,” the man goes on in a gentle Saudi accent. “But . . . it’s a thin line. The American government did bad, bad, bad things against us. But at least I am honest with what I did.”
Who do you dislike least? That sums up our current political environment.
Canada was once heralded as an outlier in a world gripped by controversial politicians such as former U.S. president Donald Trump, Brexiteer Nigel Farage and France’s Marine Le Pen. Back in 2015, the election of Justin Trudeau and his “sunny ways” government set the country apart on the international stage.
HBO ‘Real Time’ host Bill Maher on Friday said the GOP backs candidates like Herschel Walker to push back against woke Democrats who continue to push their woke agenda.
‘Part of the appeal of a Herschel Walker or a Donald Trump or any number of egregious a**holes Republicans have backed is, in their mind, the worst a candidate is, the more it says to Democrats, “we don’t like what you’re selling,”‘ he said.
Earlier this month, it was revealed that Georgia Senate hopeful Herschel Walker, 60, paid for a woman’s abortion in 2009 despite running on an anti-abortion political platform, and she claims he also urged her to terminate a second pregnancy.
A strike in Ukraine would threaten chaos at home — but one expert says it may not be as bad as we fear
Western countries are making contingency plans to deal with chaos at home in case of nuclear war in Ukraine, officials said yesterday, as the threat of a battlefield strike by President Putin grew.
The measures could include issuing leaflets on how to survive a nuclear attack or ways to ease panic buying amid fears the fallout could reach western Europe and beyond. President Putin’s threats to use nuclear weapons in recent weeks have sent alarm bells ringing across Nato, with the alliance engaging in discussions behind closed doors as to how it will respond to such an eventuality.
Oh that’s nice, we’re only gonna be irradiated just a tetch.
