Emmy-winning Hollywood star Billy Porter accused black Christians of “weaponizing the Bible” against the LGBTQ community in an incendiary interview with journalist April Ryan of TheGrio.
Section 13 Rises from the Dead
The “free world” barely pretends to favor free speech these days. The triggered interns who infest the big publishing houses openly demand their employers pulp the latest manuscripts from J K Rowling and Jordan Peterson. The totalitarian wankers of the British police sit around the station all day monitoring Twitter for transphobic quips, which is far more congenial labor than getting off their flabby arses and catching criminals. The woke billionaires of social media boast openly of their success at “fortifying” the US election by memory-holing unhelpful content.
John McAfee reportedly had suicide note in pocket when found dead in Spanish cell
Cybersecurity tycoon John McAfee had a suicide note in his pocket when he was found hanged in a Spanish cell while awaiting extradition to the US, according to a source familiar with the investigation.
The eccentric 75-year-old mogul had repeatedly insisted that US officials were out to kill him and would make it look like suicide — even getting a tattoo saying “$WHACKD” to highlight the theory.
Portland’s Antifa-Loving and Police-Hating DA Vies for ‘Worst Prosecutor of the Year’ Award With His Latest Move
Multnomah County District Attorney Mike Schmidt is considering charging another Portland police officer for hurting an antifa militant at the height of the George Floyd riots on August 31, 2020. The same DA dropped a felony assault charge and other misdemeanor charges against the same rioter – an antifa “medic” — who punched the same cop.
Adam Zivo: A University of Toronto student union is going to war in defence of anti-Semitism
In the face of accusations of anti-Semitism, a University of Toronto students’ union would rather face defunding than temper its support for the boycott, divestment and sanction movement that targets Israel. It is yet another example of how student unions, enamoured with their own tone-deaf activism, stoke anti-Semitism and endanger Jewish students.
Cost to search for unmarked graves, identify remains at residential schools could exceed $1-billion
Ottawa is fielding more than 100 requests for financial assistance from Indigenous communities intent on launching searches for unmarked graves, a volume of demand certain to deplete government funding commitments and stretch the availability of archeological expertise in the country, according to Indigenous leaders and academics.
The federal government said earlier this month it would distribute $27-million for First Nations to locate, identify and commemorate Indigenous children buried in undocumented sites of former residential schools.
DeSantis: America Would Look Like Canada if Florida Hadn‘t Fought Against Lockdowns
Sunday on Fox News Channel’s “Life, Liberty & Levin,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) touted his state’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
DeSantis advised that had Florida not pushed back against lockdowns, and other states followed suit, the United States would look more like Canada right now, which he said would still be locked down.
MALCOLM: Bill C-10 was just the tip of the iceberg
“Midnight Madness: as Canadians slept, the Liberals, Bloc and NDP combined to pass Bill C-10.”
That is how Canadian law professor and the country’s foremost expert on law and technology, Michael Geist, described Tuesday evening’s House of Commons shenanigans that allowed the Trudeau government to ram through its controversial internet censorship law.
Ontario reports 210 new Covid cases … and Oh You Rebels!

29% of Canadians broke COVID-19 restrictions, and many felt justified doing so: survey
Almost 30 per cent of respondents in a newly released Canada-wide survey admitted to breaking COVID-19 rules — and felt justified doing so.
The survey by the Canadian Hub for Applied and Social Research at the University of Saskatchewan was done between June 1 and June 14. It asked 1,000 people about how closely they stuck to public health orders and where they were getting their information about the pandemic.
Some 29 per cent said they broke at least one COVID-19 restriction. The most common transgressions were around gathering limits and wearing masks.
I suspect the number is much higher.
Jailed Canadian Pastor Alleges Double Standard For Muslims Regarding Lockdown Enforcement
A Polish-Canadian pastor who was arrested and jailed for holding church services in defiance of Alberta’s Public Health Act alleged that provincial health officials and law enforcement apply a different standard to Muslims who violate lockdown orders.
Pastor Artur Pawlowski, who made international headlines when he was arrested in the middle of a busy highway on his way home from church, told The Christian Post (CP) that authorities pick on Christians because they know they will not fight back.
Hundreds show up to Protest at Remand Centre Demanding Freedom for Pastor Tim Stephens
Several now well known religious and political leaders came out on Saturday to speak at a protest at the Remand Centre for Tim Stephens, pastor of Fairview Baptist Church, who is currently in prison for holding an outdoors Sunday service because the RCMP had seized Fairview Church’s property.
No More Passing The Buck On Big Tech
Ten years ago, Apple took in $65 billion in revenue. Amazon took in $34 billion, Google took in $29 billion, and Facebook took in $2 billion. Even in 2012, the revenue of these companies was sizable. But last year alone, those same companies earned $275, $386, $183, and $86 billion, respectively. As of today, Apple is wealthier than the nation of Italy, and Amazon is worth more than 92% of countries across the globe. This tremendous growth has created an oligarchy of opinion, giving Big Tech unprecedented control over American life: crushing small businesses, silencing conservative voices, and carefully shaping public opinion and discourse to support a progressive, liberal agenda.
‘I’ve never felt so ashamed to be Canadian’ — returning traveler to Pearson hellscape
A Canadian coming home through Pearson this week describes a hellscape of crowding and bureaucratic chaos at the airport.
Her story suggests that the mandatory hotel stay and other so-called health protocols are discriminatory, coercive and entirely unrelated to science.
GOP Reps. Call For Joe Biden To Take A Cognitive Test
Republican lawmakers have expressed concerns over Joe Biden’s mental state. In a interview on Saturday, Alabama Rep. Jerry Carl (R) said he and his colleague, Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas), have requested for Biden to take a cognitive test.
Carl said he spoke to Jackson, the former White House physician, about the decline that has been seen in Biden since he took office. This comes after Jackson led a group of 14 Republicans in sending a letter to Biden to take the test and make the results public.
