Former Rolling Stone Editor Has the Perfect Analogy for the FBI’s Raid of Mar-a-Lago
Not all liberal writers sip the Kool-Aid, and Matt Taibbi is one of them. The former contributing editor for Rolling Stone ditched the publication to write exclusively on Substack for obvious reasons; many of his pieces wouldn’t pass the quasi-politburo system established at most liberal publications. The only rule is don’t make the Democrats look bad.
Canada Is Euthanizing Its Sick and Poor. Welcome to World of Government Health Care.
Many leftists tout Canada’s socialized healthcare system as something America should emulate, claiming government-run healthcare is more humane. But it seems Canadian officials are more interested in urging doctors to help patients to kill themselves than to treat them.
America’s neighbor to the north has some of the most permissive euthanasia laws in the world. Canada’s medical assistance in dying laws allow almost anyone who can claim some form of hardship or disability to receive physician-assisted suicide, regardless of how minor those disabilities might be.
“Get Trump!” Damn the Constitution
There is a movement afoot to “Get Trump,” at any cost. The goal is to prevent him from running in 2024. Many in this movement are willing to use any means to attain what they believe to be a necessary and admirable goal. “Democracy is at stake,” they claim. They are prepared to sacrifice constitutional rights, civil liberties, principles and the rule of law to stop former President Donald Trump.
Dems’ Climate Bill Overrules Supreme Court, Expands EPA’s Control Over Energy Industry
- The Inflation Reduction Act defines “air pollutants” including carbon dioxide as “greenhouse gases.”
- Some experts argue this legally authorizes the EPA to regulate greenhouse gases and encourage adopting renewable energy, while others were not so sure.
- “There’s no definition there, it’s just sort of in a list, and it’s casually mentioned,” former Trump EPA transition team member Steve Milloy told the Daily Caller News Foundation said. “There’s no section that says carbon dioxide is an air pollutant under the Clean Air Act.”
New York Times under fire for hiring freelancers who made anti-Semitic posts
The New York Times has come under fire by pro-Israel outlets for employing multiple freelancers who have a history of making anti-Semitic posts on social media.
One freelancer whose work covering the Israel-Palestine conflict has been published by the newspaper giant reportedly praised Adolf Hitler on Facebook as recently as 2018.
Must have taken the same anti-racism course as Canada’s broadcasters.
Judge orders unsealing of redacted affidavit in Trump search
A judge on Thursday ordered the Justice Department to make public a redacted version of the affidavit it relied on when federal agents searched the Florida estate of former President Donald Trump to look for classified documents.
The directive from U.S. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart came hours after federal law enforcement officials submitted under seal the portions of the affidavit that they want to keep secret as their investigation moves forward.

Video shown to Denver students: Do not call the police in case of racist attack
Students at Denver’s South High School were shown a video that explicitly warned against calling the police in the case of a racist or transphobic attack, claiming law enforcement officers have been trained to view members of minority groups as “perpetrators of violence.”
“Armed police presence often escalates, rather than reduces, the risk of violence in a situation,” the video’s narrator says. “Because police have been trained to see people of color, gender nonconforming folks, and Muslims as criminals, they often treat victims as perpetrators of violence.”
Vladimir Putin’s ‘worst nightmare’ is ‘power struggle’ within Moscow following car bombing death of Darya Dugina
A well-experienced researcher believes the recent assassination of the daughter of a prominent Vladimir Putin ally could lead to a power struggle within Russia.
Alexander Dugin’s daughter Darya, 29, was killed when the car she was travelling in near a Moscow village exploded on Saturday night, law enforcement officials said.
Investigators had earlier believed her 60-year-old father was the intended target before later backing down to suggest the woman was likely marked.

UBC in damage control after hosting federally funded anti-racism talk featuring antisemitic activist
Just three weeks after releasing President Santa Ono’s watershed anti-racism task force report, the University of B.C. hosted an activist now under fire for a history of antisemitism.
UBC’s West Mall Annex was the second stop on Laith Marouf’s six-city, coast-to-coast Building an Anti-Racism Strategy for Canadian Broadcasting tour, which the federal Liberal government granted $134,000.
Horseshit.
GOLDSTEIN: Nuclear power, natural gas essential to cutting greenhouse gases
Putting aside the absurdly short time frames that countries like Canada are setting to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050, what are the realistic ways to actually lower emissions effectively going forward?
Violent Crime Rocks Sweden Ahead of Elections
Sweden will hold general elections on September 11, 2022. At the same time, the country is rocked by a wave of violent crime that is unprecedented in modern Scandinavian history.
For the first time, crime tops the list of voters’ most important concerns in the run-up to the elections. “It’s going to be a very unique type of Swedish election with a very unusual issue at the top of the agenda,” Henrik Ekengren Oscarsson, professor of political science at Gothenburg University, told newspaper Dagens Nyheter. Forty-one percent of those surveyed said that law and order are the most important issues in society, as well as the most important political issues.
Britain starts to turn out the lights
Britain starts to turn out the lights: Restaurants, pubs, butchers, cafes and shops are among small businesses forced to close as soaring energy bills begin to bite
Small firms are pleading for the Government to step in over sky-high energy bills, which have soared by as much as 400 per cent in some cases, leaving many fearing they could be put out of business by the end of the year.
More than half of small companies — 54 per cent — fear their running costs could force them to close, according to a report by SME Insights and insurer Simply Business.
Businesses are not protected by energy watchdog Ofgem’s price cap and they face paying 20 per cent VAT on their energy bills, whereas most ordinary households pay five per cent.
