My great compatriot Kate McMillan says that the “one bright spot” in yesterday’s Canadian election was that Trudeau cabinet minister Maryam Monsef lost her seat. The current “Minister for Women and Gender Equality”, Ms Monsef was discussing the fall of Kabul a week or two back and referred to “our brothers the Taliban”.
Two men have been arrested after police said they found them with a car boot-full of Kentucky fried chicken and over $100,000 in cash as they tried to cross the border into Auckland despite New Zealand’s strict Covid-19 lockdown.
Many older voters, parents with young children and Canadians with disabilities didn’t vote on Monday because they couldn’t wait in long lineups at their voting sites. Elections Canada has apologized but said there was little else they could do given COVID-19 restrictions.
A group of Republican senators has introduced legislation to stop plans by Democrats to expand Internal Revenue Service access to American banking transactions they argue violate taxpayer rights and privacy.
“Unfortunately, [President Joe] Biden and his team have ignored, or sometimes celebrated, the violation of taxpayer privacy and want to create an intrusive IRS,” Oklahoma Republican Sen. James Lankford said in a statement released on Tuesday.
Biden’s proposal is to monitor and investigate any transaction $600 or more. That means buying a mattress, a nice computer, car repairs, and potentially even paying taxes could put you under the magnifying glass.
Quebec premier François Legault said it’s “unacceptable” that people have been protesting against the vaccine passport outside hospitals and schools recently and said the province could turn to the law to put an end to them.

Soldiers have limited options to refuse the COVID-19 vaccine, and may have a hard time claiming an exemption if they have never protested a dozen-plus other vaccines the Defense Department mandates for all troops, according to new Army guidelines.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau failed in his bid to win a Liberal majority government after a low-energy campaign in the middle of the pandemic, and party insiders see an increasing chance he will step down before the next vote.
“It is rather amazing to take an objective view and watch what is happening: Install a puppet as president through massive voting fraud. Then use the puppet as a means to initiate all the programs. The puppet can also distract from the real agenda by the comical bumbling that the puppet displays. Blatantly lie about everything, and keep repeating all the lies; no need to worry as the MSM is in their corner. An example: Raggedy Ann saying no need to be concerned with the vaccination status of all those streaming across the border as most of them will not be staying in the US, all the while shipping them all off to various US cities. Such a laughable lie, but never challenged.
They really have totally won, and continue to consolidate their power.”
The more the Conservative Party plays into the Liberal worldview, the more they validate the Liberals as being correct on the big issues.
As the election results continue to roll in, it is becoming clear that Conservative Party Leader Erin O’Toole’s gamble to attract progressive and Liberal voters has largely failed.

Any critique of the COVID-19 vaccines has to point out that they were inadequately tested before being released. The FDA can’t dispute this claim but will immediately add that the vaccines are nonetheless safe. As famed sportscaster Warner Wolf would say: “Let’s go to the videotape.” Here are some of the standard steps the FDA skipped before issuing its Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for the vaccines. Knowing this, you decide how valid is the FDA’s assurance of the safety of COVID vaccines.

Cher failed to mention that millions of innocent Jews were murdered at the hands of Hitler’s Nazi regime. It remains unclear if she actually believes Republicans are on par with Nazis, who systematically killed innocent men, women, and children. The actor is in good company, however, as many Democrats have effectively minimized the Holocaust over the years after continually likening former President Trump to Adolf Hitler and his supporters to Nazis. President Biden himself has engaged in such comparisons, even likening Trump to Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels.
Thousands of residents in Melbourne, Australia protested against COVID-19 vaccine mandates and lockdowns over the weekend and into Monday and Tuesday. Large crowds have been captured on video demonstrating, clashing with police and even chasing away police vehicles.
“If there is one basic element in our Constitution, it is civilian control of the military” – Harry S. Truman
Americans traditionally have been wary of a large permanent military establishment, believing it to be a threat to democratic institutions. This attitude goes all the way back to the Founding Fathers who deliberately kept the army small, preferring to rely on local militia in case of an emergency. This was done to prevent the army from being used to repress the rights of any individual state during the long and ongoing battle over the issue of states’ rights; the echoes of which still reverberate to this very day. The past nine months’ events show how wise this attitude was.
Former Justice Department Chief of Staff Kash Patel said Monday that he believed Attorney Michael Sussmann linked former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to Fusion GPS and the DOJ.
How China’s censorship virus is spreading in the U.S.
The Communist Chinese regime is moving aggressively to solidify what it calls a “civilized” Internet for its citizens. The regime’s definition of a “civilized” Internet is one that adheres to “the guiding status of Marxism in the ideological cyberspace sphere, foster a common ideology among the whole Party and the Chinese people, and interiorize core socialist values.”

During a recent trip to the US, I had lunch with a young man from New York, who told me glumly that many of his peers had spent the summer swanning around Europe while he stayed put in America. They were all flaunting it on Instagram, of course, but none as aggressively as a clutch of young women in their early 20s, who had spent time in the most expensive spots: the Amalfi Coast, Porto Cervo, Capri. I peered at his phone and saw images of the girls draped over each other in terrace restaurants, on the prows of boats, laid along tree branches in thong bikinis, glowing with the gold-dust of fine living.
Mark and Patricia McCloskey, a Missouri couple who became famous for pointing guns at protesters marching for racial justice last summer, could have their law licenses revoked.
