Do you ever wonder if at some point, the purveyors of critical race theory will promote something so outrageously wrong, so egregiously stupid, that the entire theoretical framework of the noxious philosophy will collapse in a heap of proverbial steaming excrement?
Twitter has shut down thousands of state-linked accounts in China that seek to counter evidence of human rights abuses in Xinjiang, as part of what experts called an “embarrassingly” produced propaganda operation.
The operations used photos and images, shell and potentially automated accounts, and fake Uyghur profiles, to disseminate state propaganda and fake testimonials about their happy lives in the region, seeking to dispel evidence of a years-long campaign of oppression, with mass internments, re-education programs, and allegations of forced labour and sterilisation.
Ethan Crumbley’s parents have been charged with involuntary manslaughter in connection to the Michigan school shooting allegedly carried out by their 15-year-old son.

In a new report issued today, the National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) is now strongly recommending all Canadians over the age of 50 and other vulnerable groups like health-care workers, Indigenous peoples and those living in congregate care settings get a third dose of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine.
The committee, an independent body composed of volunteer vaccine experts, is also now recommending the younger cohort — Canadians aged 18 to 49 — get a third mRNA shot at least six months after they got their second.

CHICAGO — Jussie Smollett’s attorneys asked for a mistrial Thursday after the judge called their evidence irrelevant in front of the jury and “physically lunged” at one of the actor’s lawyers.
The odd fracas came in the midst of the defense’s cross-examination of Olabinjo Osundairo, who claims he was paid to help Smollett stage the hate crime, as attorney Tamara Walker grilled him about his alleged homophobia and past derogatory remarks toward suspected gay men.
Osundairo, 30, had just acknowledged he used the word “fruity ass” to refer to a man he suspected was gay and Walker asked if Smollett, who is openly gay, knew he’d said such things in the past.
A female passenger on a recent Delta Airlines flight stunned her fellow travelers and cabin crew when she was reportedly observed breastfeeding her pet cat and the woman refused to stop when asked by a flight attendant.
The bizarre incident was said to have taken place on a recent Delta Flight 1360 from Syracuse, New York, to Atlanta, Georgia.

OTTAWA — Parliamentarians could finally get a look at documents related to the firing of two scientists from Canada’s highest security laboratory — which the Liberals went to court to keep secret — under a new deal offered by the government.
Whatever is in there must be awfully embarrassing.
A tearful Alec Baldwin said on Thursday night that he would have killed himself if he felt responsible for shooting dead camerawoman Halyna Hutchins on the set of his movie Rust, but that he doesn’t feel guilty and believes he won’t face charges for the accident.
Baldwin broke his silence on the shooting in an interview with ABC where he went from criticizing the likes of George Clooney for chiming in on the tragedy, to crying and talking about how ‘loved’ Hutchins was and how he’d bonded with her widower after accidentally killing her.
He maintains that he didn’t pull the trigger and that the gun just ‘went off’ while in his hands on the set of the movie in New Mexico on October 21.
.@GStephanopoulos: "Do you feel guilt?"
Alec Baldwin: “No. Someone is responsible for what happened and I can’t say who that is, but I know it’s not me.”

Snapchat being used to counterfeit Ontario proof-of-vaccination certificates
Public Health and medical experts are once again sounding the alarm about the use of fake vaccine certificates across Ontario.
Counterfeiting the non-QR code PDF is as simple as using cut and paste and many are turning to technology to do just that.
An 18-year-old said they can use Snapchat, the social media app for sending photos, to alter Ontario’s original vaccine certificates.
Kyle Rittenhouse revealed that he is having his AR-15, which was used in self-defense after he was attacked at a Black Lives Matter rally, destroyed.
CCF lawyer and spokesperson Christine Van Geyn defends flying the “F*CK TRUDEAU” flag as a fundamental freedom.
“Like every citizen of Canada, Melissa has a Charter-protected right to express her political views. She is flying a flag on her own property, expressing a political sentiment that frankly is not even that uncommon. If her flag bothers some people at Port Colborne city hall, I suggest they drive down a different street instead of trying to tell Melissa what she can and cannot say.”
According to CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, the CDC will be expanding its surveillance at four major international airports in an attempt to see whether the Omicron variant of COVID is present in travelers into the U.S.
“People truly don’t understand the scale, intensity, & volume of threats targeting [Rep. Ilhan Omar].”“Kevin McCarthy is so desperate to be speaker that he is working with his Ku Klux Klan caucus to look aside & allow violent targeting of woc (women of color) members of Congress.”
