White House: Iran ‘Weeks’ from Nuclear Breakout and It’s Donald Trump’s Fault

Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the time in which Iran could build a nuclear weapon is “down to a matter of weeks.”

White House press secretary Jen Psaki echoed the secretary of state’s remarks, saying, “Their breakout period is down from about a year, which is what we knew it was during the deal, to just a few weeks or less.”

UK Govt Threatens to Ban Twitter And Potentially Jail Elon Musk If He Allows Free Speech

The UK on Tuesday threatened to ban Twitter altogether and potentially jail Elon Musk if he violates their incoming “Online Safety Bill” by allowing free speech on his platform.

The move came just hours after the EU threatened to ban Twitter entirely if Musk allows free speech on the platform and the US threatened to “reform” Section 230 to hold social media companies “accountable” for the “harms they cause.”

Liberal MP accuses Doug Ford of “crimes against humanity”

Liberal MP Julie Dzerowicz has accused Ontario premier Doug Ford of “crimes against humanity” due to his stance on climate change.

Dzerowicz made the accusation in the House of Commons on Monday and even doubled down on the statement when questioned about it.

“These inactions (on climate change) to me are irresponsible, unconscionable and a crime against humanity,” said Dzerowicz

The Next Ten Battles

It is apparently much easier to tell the truth about state action the farther away it is from home. And hence even the New York Times seems alarmed at the covid lockdowns in Shanghai, and pretending as if nothing like that could happen here even though the whole practice of lockdown the world over was directly copied from the Wuhan model.

Justice minister invokes cabinet secrecy around use of Emergencies Act

Justice Minister David Lametti repeatedly invoked cabinet confidentiality in his appearance before a special committee tasked with investigating the government’s use of the Emergencies Act.

Lametti was asked pointed questions Tuesday evening about federal consultations with provinces and others before declaring an emergency, and when the government received advice to revoke the declaration. On multiple occasions, he responded that he “would not betray cabinet confidence.”

Why The Fuss When 99.7% Of Canadians Are Not Transgendered?

Trans-culture is big business. One of the leading promoters of the sex-change industry in America is Les Wexner, founder of a global retail empire that includes Victoria’s Secret and Bath & Body Works. On a political level, Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum is giant supporter. So too is billionaire banker George Soros. In Canada, PM Justin Trudeau leads the political charge.

Transgenderism is a cash cow for the fashion and cosmetics industries. As a result of gender dysphoria, Big Pharma rakes in billions. Studies prove that this segment of their market suffers from mental dysfunction far beyond the medium. To say nothing of the financial upside of hormone blockers and other trans-related medical procedures.

Canadians Need A Break From The Inflationary Policies Of Trudeau & The Bank of Canada

In what appears to be a near-constant event in Canadian politics going forward, the establishment is once again criticizing Pierre Poilievre:

“Cryptocurrencies are not a way to “opt out” of inflation and they will in no way replace the Canadian dollar, said the two main officials of the Bank of Canada in an apparent rebuke to Conservative Party of Canada leadership candidate Pierre Poilievre.“

Liberal-Funded “Anti-Hate” Activist Grilled Over Misinformation About Freedom Convoy

Conservative MP Dane Lloyd grilled an activist from the far-left Canadian Anti-Hate Network (CAHN) before a parliamentary committee this week, accusing the group of bias and for spreading misinformation during the Freedom Convoy.

CAHN executive director Evan Balgord admitted to the Commons public safety committee on Tuesday that his so-called research organization did not in fact verify a photo of an anti-Semitic flyer allegedly found at the site of the Freedom Convoy in Ottawa before CAHN chair Bernie Farber pinned it on convoy protesters.

Global Child Hepatitis Outbreak Sparks Concern: Warning Signs And What To Look For

Global health experts are puzzled over a recent onslaught of liver disease in children, warning a mysterious outbreak of pediatric hepatitis has been detected in the US, Europe and Asia.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a nationwide health alert last week that previously healthy children were suddenly developing hepatitis, or liver inflammation caused by a number of viruses.

WEF: A Trade Organization on Steroids

Words and their meanings are tricky things. Clever people, con artists, liars and CIA agents (which are all of the above, in my experience) are often very skilled at using language and manipulating both meaning and emotions to hide their true intent.

Jason Whitlock on Elon Musk & Twitter: We Are Looking At “Political Climate Change” And The Left Is Losing Its Mind

Jason Whitlock, the host of ‘Fearless’ on BlazeTV, expressed his delight in the panic that Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter has caused on the left, calling it an “incredible time to live,” in an interview with FOX News host Tucker Carlson on Tuesday.

“We’re looking at political climate change and the left is losing its mind,” Whitlock said. “They ignored the warnings from the tea party. They ignore the warnings from the MAGA movement. They ignored the warnings delivered in a big, powerful way on January 6th and now, they have to deal with the ramifications of that.”

Meanwhile in England … The police have gone full Orwell

The recording of ‘non-crime hate incidents’ has got to stop.

In a world where ever more menacing, Orwellian terms are created by the day, there are still few that are more terrifying than ‘non-crime hate incident’ (NCHI).

The evil of the term is two-fold. Firstly, the word ‘hate’ reminds us that the state reserves the right to legally classify certain emotions as criminal. So-called hate crimes carry longer sentences, based on the identity of the victim and the prejudices of the perpetrator.

Don’t Make Concessions on Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps

The debate over whether to delist Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a foreign terrorist organization (FTO) has evolved. President Joe Biden appears to have ruled out an unconditional delisting of the IRGC in whole. The deliberations now are over whether Washington and Tehran will be prepared for a middle ground solution, that involves retaining the IRGC’s extraterritorial arm, the Quds Force, while removing the rest of the IRGC’s units from the FTO list in exchange for undefined concessions. But this kind of arrangement would invent an artificial distinction in the IRGC that does not exist.

Diversity, Free Speech, and the ‘Woke’ Assault on America

We are living in Orwellian times.

Tech plutocrat Elon Musk announces he is buying Twitter to liberate this “virtual town square” from one-sided political censorship – and he is met with hysterical charges that he is attacking free speech. A woman who reposts TikTok videos of “woke” teachers bragging about their sexualize of children in their classrooms, is attacked by a Washington Post reporter who harasses the woman’s family in order to silence an enemy of “free speech” and purveyor of “hate” – just days after the reporter appeared in a video and bursts into tears over getting the same treatment she later inflicts on the anonymous creator of Libs on TikTok.

Leftists Claim Everything Is Racist — Except For Actual Race Hatred

Everything from boulders to cycling, from camping to baseball, have all been criticized as racist, but one slur has been given complete immunity.

If you’ve been tuned into politics for the last several years, you’ve no doubt heard a lot about racism. You’ve been told that America is systemically, systematically, structurally, institutionally, and irrevocably racist. You’ve also heard that millions of Americans are racist, or, at best, that they uphold a racist system through colorblind ignorance. Maybe you’ve even been told that you’re a racist.

Putin’s plot to paralyse the EU

His invasion was set in motion last spring

“It’s much worse than everyone thinks.” Alan Riley is drinking tea on the outside patio of the Radisson hotel in central Chișinău, the capital of Moldova. “The recent winter energy crisis was exceptional. And we now realise that it was Russia softening up Europe for the war.”

If Riley, a nonresident senior fellow with the Atlantic Council Global Energy Center, is correct, Putin’s tactics have more than paid off. Gas and electricity prices could soon reach £3,000 in the UK, while household energy bills are predicted to reach €3,400 in Germany, €2,800 in France and just below €2,000 in Italy and Spain.

Musk’s Free Speech Crusade

Ending Big Tech censorship at Twitter will be trickier than it sounds, but it’s worth the struggle.

For Elon Musk, coming up with $44 billion was the easy part. What comes next, less so.

To the delight of many conservatives, Musk has purchased Twitter and announced that he will make the platform “an arena for free speech.” One can almost picture him storming into Twitter HQ, marching downstairs, and kicking in the rusty door to the content-moderation boiler room. Steam blows and bells ring as, with a mighty tug, he dislodges a giant iron lever from the “Less Speech” setting and wrenches it into the “More Speech” position. After a few more adjustments—a crank down on the “Spam” knob, a flip onward of the “Edit Tweet” switch—he returns to the lobby, instructs the astonished employees to stay out of the basement, and leaves.
