More than 5,000 educators have signed a petition vowing to break anti-critical race theory laws being considered in multiple state legislatures — as the controversial curriculum faces a reckoning in districts across the country.

In case you haven’t noticed, in the age of COVID-19, our laid-back, ultra-liberal northern neighbor, Canada, is moving steadily toward tyranny, and there are not many people in the country who seem to mind.
Comrade citizens, the COVID Ministry announced today they will assist your compliance for vaccinated status by visiting you in your home. Prepare for the Jackboots to arrive on your doorstep to inquire about your vaccinated status.
The spokesperson for the regime made the compliance announcement earlier today during a press conference: “targeted community, by community, door-to-door outreach“.

“Billionaires from Silicon Valley won’t be allowed to select our Commander in Chief, and they should not be allowed to funnel hundreds of millions of dollars to election officials in specifically Democrat counties,” said the Congresswoman.
The message from these freedom fighters is consistent and can be applied to all countries attempting to impose continued arbitrary mandates on citizens: To stop tyranny, people must loudly stand together and say “We will not comply.”
Long Beach Mayor Robert Garcia said the likeness of the civil rights icon at Martin Luther King Jr. Park was defaced over the July Fourth holiday weekend.
“The LBPD are investigating this as a hate crime and we are working to catch whoever committed this awful act,” Garcia tweeted Monday. “Our MLK statue is a symbol of hope and justice for the community. This hate and desecration has no place in our city.”
Two years ago, I received an invitation to testify in front of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights for their study on online hate. The committee was studying what remedies they could introduce to combat “hate speech” on the internet.
Many of the other witnesses were pressing the committee to reintroduce section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act, even though section 13 was a disaster that was repealed in 2014.
Without a rapid and decisive course-correction, the Conservative Party of Canada is on pace for historically bad numbers, possibly giving Trudeau a path to a majority due to their total weakness.

The increase of LGBTQ characters and themes popping up in TV shows made for children in the last decade is not an organic development.

President Joe Biden doesn’t exactly give off the impression that he’s a man in charge of things. Watching any of his speeches for more than a few minutes will lead you to believe he’s a fry short of a happy meal. His colleagues and the media can make excuses for him till the cows come home but between his outbursts, constant confusion, and controlled interactions with the public, Biden’s not exactly selling us on being the decision-maker.
