This was spread in part by Brandon Friedman, an entrepreneur and a former Obama official — someone who has written for the New York Daily News and other publications.
Um, Brandon? You’re wrong. This is what crazy TDS does to your brain. How this guy ever got to be an entrepreneur is beyond me, when he’s so dumb as to believe and promote this stuff. But, it explains exactly how he got to be an Obama official and likely why he’s writing for liberal publications — because you don’t need sanity or reality for those jobs.
Ontario science table warns of potential for long-term effects from school closures
The science brief, published Friday, notes that schools have been closed in Ontario for 20 weeks from March 14, 2020 to May 15, 2021, longer than any other jurisdiction in Canada. These closures, the report says, are linked to widespread negative effects on children’s academic achievement and physical and mental health.
Jason Kenney stands up for John A Macdonald
As it more becomes trendy to deface or tear down statues and malign historic figures, Alberta premier Jason Kenney took a stand for Sir John A Macdonald and against cancel culture.
White House Backs Facebook Two Year Suspension of Donald Trump: Platforms Have ‘Responsibility’ to Censor ‘Disinformation’
“Our view continues to be though that every platform, whether it’s Facebook, Twitter, any other platform that is disseminating information to millions of Americans has a responsibility to crack down on disinformation,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said.
Trump: I’m Not Undermining US Democracy; ‘I’m the One Trying to Save It’
Trump called for election integrity measures, including signature verification, voter identification, and regulation on Big Tech funding like Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg’s hundreds of millions for election drop boxes in the past presidential election.
“We all know what happened with the election, and we can never, ever let that happen again,” Trump said.
Trump said America under Biden is heading to a dictatorship, although he mocked the current president for not even being the one in charge.
Hearing set for Monday in challenge to Chicago Mayor’s “racist” interview policy
That’s according to the watchdog group, Judicial Watch, which recently filed a motion for a preliminary injunction. The injunction seeks to stop Lightfoot, who is black, from denying an interview request from Daily Caller News Foundation reporter Thomas Catenacci based on his race. He is white.
The Fourth Plinth shortlist shows a cultural elite at a creative dead end
Trafalgar Square’s Fourth Plinth, currently adorned with a sculpture of ice cream, is now ready for its next bold, thought-provoking display of public art. Last week, freshly-reelected Mayor of London Sadiq Khan shared the shortlist for the new piece, encouraging the public to “cast a vote” for their favourite artist. Boasting a cosmopolitan lineup of creators from “America, Germany, Ghana, Mexico”, the representative works include a “jewellery tree” covered in assorted junk — coffee cups, crushed beer cans, and the medals of Lord Nelson. Another piece, proposed by Teresa Margolles, features the “casts of the faces of 850 trans people, most of whom are sex workers”.
Those who insist we’re all racist have fallen prey to the very thing they claim to fight.
I was deeply interested in politics from childhood. I was gripped by the drama of the campaign for civil rights, and I was appalled by the shocking images of segregation and its violent supporters that I would see, beginning from the Little Rock school crisis in the late ’50s through the great campaign of the early ’60s to pull down the legal structures of forced race separation and to restore denied political rights.
I had no choice but to speak out against lockdowns. As a public-health scientist with decades of experience working on infectious-disease outbreaks, I couldn’t stay silent. Not when basic principles of public health are thrown out of the window. Not when the working class is thrown under the bus. Not when lockdown opponents were thrown to the wolves. There was never a scientific consensus for lockdowns. That balloon had to be popped.
Jew-hatred can only be acknowledged when it carries a tiki torch
António Guterres, the UN’s secretary-general, has described rising anti-Semitism as a ‘multi-headed monster’ of intolerance that’s creating a ‘tsunami of hatred’ across the world, and the UN proclaims ‘anti-racism’ as its defining ideology. But the UN is failing to confront discrimination and violence against Jews — and at times even nurturing it.
“The world’s richest countries have not done enough to combat global warming, Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan said on Friday, adding his country had done more than any other in the world to combat rising emissions relative to its economic means.”
It’s becoming increasingly clear that America’s bureaucracies engaged in a cover-up about COVID’s origins. What’s also become clear is the fact that one of the main players in the entire COVID scandal is a British man, Peter Daszak. And I realized something when I thought about Daszak’s involvement: Beginning more than 20 years ago, the British have taken lead roles in three leftist lies that have been used to remake America: Climate change, the Russia hoax and, now, COVID’s development and its subsequent cover-up.
What more proof does President Joe Biden need to get him to rethink his decision to resume US funding for the terror-enabling United Nations Relief and Works Agency?
This week, UNRWA Deputy Commissioner Leni Stenseth actually thanked Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar “for his positivity and desire to continue cooperation” with UNRWA, according to a statement from the terror group translated by HonestReporting. She also “affirmed her solidarity” and “offered condolences” on behalf of her agency for what Palestinians lost “in this latest Israeli aggression.”
Marion Millar, 50, from Airdrie, was charged under the Communications Act for six tweets published from 2019. If convicted she faces up to six months in prison.
The messages investigated by officers are understood to include a retweeted photograph of a bow of ribbons in the green, white and purple colours of the Suffragettes, tied around a tree outside the Glasgow studio where a BBC soap opera is shot.
It is believed a complaint was made to the police suggesting the ribbons represented a noose. It was one of at least six tweets reported to police. The nature of the other complaints is unclear.
Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm on Sunday warned in stark terms that the US power grid is vulnerable to attacks.
Asked By CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union” whether the nation’s adversaries have the capability of shutting it down, Granholm said: “Yeah, they do.”
“There are thousands of attacks on all aspects of the energy sector and the private sector generally,” she said, adding, “It’s happening all the time. This is why the private sector and the public sector have to work together.”
This is a security concern that’s always fascinated me especially since it is given so little attention. It’s only a matter of time before the grid gets hit.
“Lounging on the deck of her family home in a rural town in Nova Scotia, Louise Delisle no longer has to bear the view of the dump site behind the now overgrown birch and fir trees.
But the 70-year-old retired nurse can vividly remember the sight of people from outside this tiny Black community in Shelburne discarding and piling up unsorted industrial, medical and residential waste just half a kilometre from her house on Clements Street.
Although the site was permanently closed in 2016, she can still picture the town workers plowing and burning the mountains of garbage and smell the stench of the dump fire that she grew up with.”
Compare the Star headline to the SLA slogan and note the environmentalist tone is again increasingly reminiscent of 60’s/70’s “Radicals.”
Facebook made a quiet but dramatic reversal last week: It no longer forbids users from touting the theory that COVID-19 came from a laboratory.
“In light of ongoing investigations into the origin of COVID-19 and in consultation with public health experts, we will no longer remove the claim that COVID-19 is man-made or manufactured from our apps,” the social media platform declared in a statement.
