Is the supply chain stealing Christmas — or are the mandates?

Did you think we were having supply chain issues? Just wait until the vaccine mandates — cross-border and federal — kick in
Did you think we were having supply chain issues? Just wait until the vaccine mandates — cross-border and federal — kick in. We haven’t seen anything yet.
“The supply chain that stole Christmas” has been dominating headlines all over the place for over a month now, even in The Spectator. Senator Mike Lee’s office is having fun with it too. The senator has just introduced the Surpassing Temporary Obstructions at Ports and Guaranteeing Resources to Increase the Nation’s Commercial Health Act — or STOP the GRINCH Act.
More on that in a moment — but first, why are we hearing so much about the supply chain lately?
If forced vaccination doesn’t work, then what?

ONE of the funnier comments I have seen about Austria’s reversion to fascistic form was from Konstantin Kisin of Triggernometry fame. Asked what he thought of the Vienna government’s decision to make vaccination compulsory, he said he respected ‘their right to re-enact their history and traditions’.
Quite. Not long after, despite generally thinking themselves superior to their southerly neighbours, the Germans were followed suit. Everyone in Deutschland is going to be jabbed. It is not immediately clear how they will vaccinate those ingrates who cling to the outdated belief of bodily autonomy.
That’s rich! Celebrity Idiot Seth Rogen is blasted for telling LA theft victim: ‘It’s called living in a big city’ as its revealed his property portfolio includes huge GATED ranch

Seth Rogen was slammed after dismissing car break-ins in LA as part-and-parcel of living in the city – as its revealed his property portfolio includes two very secure properties.
Rogen, 39, who owned a secure $2.5 million home in West Hollywood and currently lives in a $8 million ranch house in Hollywood Hills, told Casey Neistat that crime was just part of ‘living in a big city.’
Neistat, 40, who used to be a prominent YouTuber in New York before moving to the West Coast, took to Twitter on Wednesday to tell his followers that ‘our cars got robbed,’ and blamed the city for being a ‘crime riddled 3rd world s**thole of a city.’
To Biden Admin: Do Not Give Away US Leverage Against Iran

The Iranian regime will be resuming “nuclear talks” with the P5+1 (the United States, Britain, France, Russia, China plus Germany) next week. It is crucial that the Biden administration not give away the leverage that the former administration built against the Islamic Republic through sanctions. The deal is not yet dead: the Biden administration and the EU are still trying to resurrect it.
China and Russia, because of their shared geopolitical, strategic and economic interests, are likely to align themselves with Iran’s leaders and their demands. Iran’s new president, Ebrahim Raisi, recently spoke with his Russian counterpart, President Vladimir Putin, regarding the upcoming nuclear talks and the revival of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). China, Russia, and the Islamic Republic, according to a statement released by the Chinese government, have apparently already reached “a broad consensus” on the deal
WHO skips two letters in Greek alphabet to avoid naming latest COVID variant “Xi” after Communist Chinese dictator whose slave state unleashed world wide plague

The World Health Organization appeared to skip two letters in the Greek alphabet when it announced Friday the name for the latest coronavirus variant, which was first identified in South Africa.
Nu and Xi were apparently the next letters in the Greek alphabet that have yet to be used for a variant, according to data on their website.
Boosting ̷g̷e̷n̷d̷e̷r̷ ̷p̷a̷r̷i̷t̷y̷ misogyny: Ontario Liberals create women-only candidate ridings
The Ontario Liberal Party has moved to only allow women to run for the nomination in more than 20 of its ridings in an effort to improve gender equity in its caucus.

San Francisco Tech Store Pays $30K A Month For Security

Earlier this year, a man brandished a gun in the store and made off with two expensive laptops.
A San Francisco tech store is paying $30,000 a month for security due to a surge in organized robbery involving groups of looters who attack employees and escape with thousands of dollars in merchandise.
Software retailer B8ta is paying the hefty sum for 24-hour security guards with bulletproof vests to prevent theft at its store in the Hayes Valley neighborhood of San Francisco.
Will Jeffrey Epstein’s little black book send Ghislaine Maxwell to prison for 80 years?
Thanksgiving, on the fourth Thursday in November, marks the start of America’s holiday season: a time to celebrate the harvest and show gratitude for the good things in life.
On a sunny day in Manhattan this week, the streets were buzzing, the shops festooned with Christmas decorations, and restaurants and bars were doing a brisk trade as New York rebounded from lockdown restrictions.
But a few miles away at Brooklyn’s grim Metropolitan Detention Centre, there were no lavish turkey dinners — and little to feel grateful about — for the fallen British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell, 59, as she waited for her ‘Trial of the Decade’ to start on Monday.
Russia Just Showed How Vulnerable America Is to ‘Scorched Earth’ Space War

A Russian anti-satellite weapon forced American astronauts on the International Space Station into the space equivalent of hiding in a bunker last week, showing just how disturbingly vulnerable the U.S. is in space.
The weapon, a direct-ascent anti-satellite missile, was launched with no warning to America and struck an old satellite during a demonstration. The impact created a massive debris field of more than 1,500 pieces, any of which could do devastating damage to the orbital infrastructure upon which the American military depends.
Whose Land Did Native Americans Steal Before Europeans Stole It From Them?

We all know that history is not the left’s favorite subject. Many times, it’s just too inconvenient for their political narratives. Often, history has to be erased or submerged in order to achieve the “greater good” of creating a just and moral society.
In truth, it’s not much better on the right, although generally, the conservative take on American history is more nuanced. Christopher Columbus was an ass — a greedy, cruel, ambitious man who didn’t let anyone stand in his way to achieving riches and power, especially native people. But he was courageous enough to cross an unknown ocean in a rickety ship and with a mutinous crew.
CNN Analyst Has ‘No Idea’ What’s Behind ‘Smash and Grab’ Robberies — Then Gives up the Answer

In today’s episode of “This… Is CNN… The Most Trusted Name in News™”…
A CNN analyst — a former Philadelphia police commissioner and CNN senior law enforcement analyst, no less — serves up a perfect example of why CNN’s ratings continue to swirl down the toilet at breakneck speed. Simply put, can’t make it up; don’t have to. And the best part is they totally don’t get it. Or do they?
Terence Corcoran: The real link from floods to climate

Canadians may be slowly coming around to the idea that the British Columbia flood crisis cannot be solely chalked up to climate change, no matter how frequently media write that script. The doubtful science behind the alleged link between atmospheric rivers and the flooding of the Sumas Prairie is usually glossed over by claiming that while the floods are maybe not a direct consequence of climate change, they are nevertheless consistent with the extreme events that are forecast to be routine by the end of the century under a climate-changed future.
Burkina Faso protest against Islamist violence turns violent

OUAGADOUGOU, Nov 27 (Reuters) – Protesters burned tyres and pillaged a government building in Burkina Faso’s capital on Saturday after police fired tear gas to disperse a march against the state’s failure to stop a wave of violence by Islamist militants.
Activist groups called for renewed protests in response to a recent surge of attacks in the West African country, including one by al Qaeda-linked militants that killed 49 military police officers and four civilians two weeks ago.
LA looters ransack Home Depot and Bottega Veneta stores on Black Friday despite Gov. Newsom’s claim he would crack down on ‘smash and grab’ gangs

Roaming packs of thieves ransacked another luxury retailer in Los Angeles on Black Friday before descending on Home Depot despite California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s vow to crack down on the string of organized ‘smash and grabs’ plaguing the state.
The Bottega Veneta store in LA’s trendy Beverly Grove shopping district saw a large group enter the store at 5:21 p.m. and snatch pricey merchandise before one robber pepper-sprayed someone in the face, the LA Police Department reported.
At the Home Deport, in Lakewood, eight people made their way into the home improvement chain at 7:55 p.m. and stole sledgehammers, wrenches and hammers, threatened customers and then fled in 10 getaway cars.
Home Deport? Returns only?
