The Minnesota Attorney General’s Office argued in a new court filing Friday that Chauvin, who was convicted on murder and manslaughter charges last week, “inflicted gratuitous pain, and caused psychological distress to Mr. Floyd and to the bystanders.”
Ontario was not ready for a pandemic and had no comprehensive plans to protect long-term care homes that have been neglected for years, leaving residents and staff “easy targets” for COVID-19, an independent commission has found.
In a further erosion of our religious freedom, Connecticut has become the 6th state to end the religious exemption from vaccine requirements for school.
The leaders of the bill said there has been a recent increase in religious exemptions.
Legislators also pointed to the fact that removing this exemption helps prevent ‘potential’ outbreaks of illnesses like measles.
If Bill C-10 isn’t a fireable offence, this interview should be. Canadian Heritage Minister Steven Guilbeault is simply unable to respond coherently to basic questions about his own legislation and flailing for talking points that seek to blame tech companies or opposition parties for the fact that he introduced legislation that exempted user generated content, removed the exception, and has no answer for why. Watch the interview and decide whether Canadians can trust Guilbeault to defend freedom of expression online.
“We’re two years into that commitment, almost two years into it, and they’re still acting like they still have another 10 years,” said Conservative environment critic Dan Albas.
Albas says the government has provided few details on how the government will source approximately 222 million seedlings per year and find viable land to plant them.
Canadian Health Minister Patty Hajdu says her government supports the idea of a “vaccine passport” and will come up with a form of vaccine certification to allow vaccinated Canadians to travel internationally.
While Joe Biden, the media and Democrats (all the same, I know!) focus on the events on January 6, 2021 at the Capitol, terrorizing Americans by claiming it was an “Insurrection!!!!,” the terrorism of the past decade from Antifa and BLM groups aren’t mentioned, or it is downplayed to the point where high profile “news” personalities try to justify and defend their violence.
Perhaps because Antifa is used as the paramilitary arm for the Democrats, so of course their riots, arson, looting and million of dollars in destruction, are not heavily covered or criticized.
Warning against the rising threat to free speech posed by the government’s collusion with large technology companies in order to regulate and control what ideas can be shared on the internet and through social media, The Rutherford Institute has asked a federal court to prohibit Facebook from censoring and de-platforming critics of the COVID-19 vaccine in violation of the First Amendment. In an amicus brief filed in Children’s Health Defense v. Facebook, Rutherford Institute attorneys argue that Facebook acted in concert with U.S. government officials and agencies to suppress and punish Children’s Health Defense for sharing information critical of the dangers of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Democrats and their surrogates in the media, academia, and the entertainment world have been pushing the lie of “systemic racism” caused by “white supremacy” really hard in the past few years alone, but their effort has been ramped up significantly since Joe Biden ‘won’ the presidency in November.
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — As the U.S. faces a reckoning over its history of racism, some Native American tribal nations that once owned slaves also are grappling with their own mistreatment of Black people.
When Native American tribes were forced from their ancestral homelands in the southeastern United States to what is now Oklahoma in the 1800s — known as the Trail of Tears — thousands of Black slaves owned by tribal members also were removed and forced to provide manual labor along the way. Once in Oklahoma, slaves often toiled on plantation-style farms or were servants in tribal members’ homes.
Malfeasance has it rewards.
It has been said that “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.”
The border crisis endangers national security, public health and public safety, yet for the Biden administration, the border crisis that creates consternation for most Americans, incredibly, is viewed as a success story by Biden and the radicalized Democrat Party.
British police are arresting and investigating people over entirely legal speech.
This week police in Uxbridge, Greater London, handcuffed, arrested and detained a 71-year-old grandfather for fear he might have offended someone.
The pandemic has revealed a darkly authoritarian side to expertise
When I was small, my father would conduct experiments around the house. When you blow across the top of a wine bottle, how many modes of vibration are there? How do you get the higher notes?
Another time, the matter under investigation might be the “angle of repose” of a pile of sand, as in an hour-glass. Does it depend on the particle size? On their shape? Do these factors determine the rate at which an hour-glass empties?
For those who think now-former Brooklyn Center police officer Kim Potter should be charged with a crime – let alone murder – I have a simple question: if a surgeon accidentally nicks an artery and kills a patient when she mistakes the scalpel in her hand for a prober, should she be charged with murder, or even manslaughter?
Answer: no.
After all, the surgeon did this thing we all do: she made a mistake. She had no ill intent, let alone malice.
MONTREAL—News of the appointment this week of former Supreme Court justice Louise Arbour to conduct yet another external review of sexual misconduct in the Canadian military predictably went down like a lead balloon.
Arbour’s qualifications for the job are not in question. On the contrary, she comes to it with a solid reputation for bringing a no-nonsense approach to such tasks.
To this day, her 1996 report on events at Kingston’s Prison for Women still stands out for the clarity of both its findings and its recommendations.
But if the recent past is any indication, Arbour’s strong credentials may well be wasted on the Liberal government.
CLAIM: Left-wing Hollywood star Cher claimed in a tweet Friday that Republicans only allow white people to vote, adding that the GOP doesn’t understand why “black, brown, and native Americans” are allowed to vote in elections.
Dr. Fadi Yousef Kablawi, imam at the Masjid As-Sunnah An-Nabawiyyah in north Miami, struck a blow for interfaith harmony recently when he preached a sermon in which declared: “If you truly love Jesus, this [Islam] is the religion for you.” Kablawi’s sermon was an excellent illustration of why Muslim persecution of Christians continues unabated in Nigeria and elsewhere.
I have been struck by a sudden insight.
I have so few, I thought I’d give the announcement its own one-sentence paragraph.
It’s not Newton level — you know, apple, gravity, laws of planetary motion. But it can hold its own. Here it is.
Pandemics are never an ideal time to hold elections.
Can the Conservatives exploit Junior’s criminally negligent handling of the pandemic? Doubtful.
The carbon tax is starting to bite. 99 dollar plywood? Oh that’s right the Con’s have their own Carbon tax plan.
Junior doesn’t need an election, the Bloc and NDP are partners in crime and ensure he remains PM.
Corporate America quickly condemned and chastised Georgia over its recently-passed voting legislation — suggesting the bill “undermin[es]” American democracy, and some going as far as moving business away from the state in response. Additionally, hundreds of corporations, celebrities and executives announced their unified opposition against any “discriminatory legislation” that “prevent[s] any eligible voter from having an equal and fair opportunity to cast a ballot.”
I find this to be a perfect snapshot of the degeneracy of our ruling class.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told Bloomberg News last week that Stephen Harper and Donald Trump are responsible for him failing to meet his targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
