Joe Biden has been accused of abandoning his commitment to governing for all Americans as he rapidly pushes through policy in the face of an increasingly hostile Republican Party.
Black Student Accused of Starting Fire in Building Full of Her Sleeping Peers in Apparent Hate Crime Hoax
Say what you will about hate crime hoaxes, they aren’t usually dangerous.
A noose in the lavatory, some rebarbative slurs scrawled on the walls, a story about being jumped in the wee hours on a cold night in Chicago — they’re manipulative and unpleasant, they may be seized upon by cultural ambulance chasers, they may sow division, but they don’t threaten lives. Usually.
That can’t be said for what accused Viterbo University student Victoria C. Unanka is alleged to have done.
Ottawa ‘constantly’ looking at further COVID-19 border measures, Freeland says
“We’re reviewing the data. We’re talking to scientists all the time. We are talking to premiers across the country constantly looking to see if there’s more we should be doing,” Freeland said in an interview that aired Sunday on Rosemary Barton Live.
NYPD Officers Leaving In Droves, 75% Increase In Quitting Or Retirement In 2020
The members of the NYPD grew so disenchanted with their jobs in 2020 that over 5,300 uniformed officers either retired or quit, an astonishing 75% increase over the year before, amounting to 15% of the total number of officers on the force. The impetus for the officers quitting seemed to be the death of George Floyd and the unrest that followed; between May 25 and June 24, 2020, a whopping 272 officers left the force in one month.
O’Toole’s climate plan isn’t good enough for the media, so why bother?
Conservative Party of Canada leader Erin O’Toole has proposed a climate change plan he says will meet Canada’s Paris agreement commitments without killing jobs. Yet one week after announcing it, Justin Trudeau increased Canada’s emissions targets and the media is already asking O’Toole why his plan doesn’t go further. True North’s Andrew Lawton says this is proof the Conservatives will never win by playing on the left’s turf.
Brainwashing? Kamala Harris’ book given to migrant children as they enter California
Do you feel like you’ve had enough of President Biden’s border crisis?
Do you feel you couldn’t possibly get more disgusted to hear of kids packed into cages, abandoned in the desert, or just tossed over the border wall as the Democrats who run Washington D.C. feign humanitarian concern?
Well, just you wait — the callousness surrounding the border crisis just reached a whole new level and, boy, is it even more jaw-dropping than you may have imagined possible.
Continental Breakfast
Ten times the Liberals dismissed facts as “fake news” or “disinformation”
The Trudeau government has regularly dismissed any criticism as “fake news,” “disinformation” and “conspiracy theories.”
Over the course of the pandemic, the Liberals have waved away real concerns Canadians harbour about vaccine distribution, economic recovery and even going so far as brushing aside official government COVID-19 data.
A glimpse inside the ER during the pandemic’s 3rd wave
As Ontario’s hospitals prepare for the possibility of triaging life-saving care in the event COVID-19 cases further overwhelm resources, one Ottawa doctor says she’s not emotionally prepared to make such choices.
Canada’s response to coronavirus variants does not inspire confidence
It was a rather inauspicious start for Canada’s new phase of international flight restrictions yesterday as Canada’s largest province announced they’d recorded 36 cases of the new coronavirus variant that these restrictions are ostensibly aimed at keeping out.
Let’s call the Biden infrastructure bill what it is: The New Entitlements Act of 2021
If everything is infrastructure, then the word has no meaning.
Liberal Saturday Night Live Viewers Triggered After Elon Musk Announced As May 8 Host
For better or for worse, it’s going to get eyeballs on the show, which is NBC’s endgame. The news triggered the lot of super-liberal SNL viewers, who lashed out at the program on Twitter, which became a group “cancel” effort/therapy session for snowflakes.
“Welcome To The Loopy Left Era of Joe Biden!” Sky News Scorches Adolescent “Post-Truth” Biden Climate Agenda
There was recently yet another climate summit by world leaders. At the summit, adolescent grand-standing by teenage activists was treated like a legitimate basis for multi-trillion dollar authoritarian globalist policies. These policies would completely change the entire economies and societies of every country on earth.
Inside the growing underground network of parents fighting ‘anti-racism’ in NYC schools
Until last summer, Harvey Goldman had no idea that his 9-year-old daughter was learning about George Floyd’s death and Black Lives Matter as well as her own “white privilege” at the $43,000-per-year Heschel School in Manhattan.
Now he’s part of an underground network of parents in NYC and around the country, many of whom are left-leaning, fighting what they believe is the undue focus on race by schools as part of the new “woke” culture.
Richard Dawkins Is Right – The Oxford scientist-cum-professional atheist may be wrong about God, but he is right about transgenderism.
We sat in his living room, books and DVDs on a wide range of scientific topics stacked about here and there. He stood unsteadily and walked to his kitchen in a manner that suggested the effort required some concentration. A few minutes later, he returned with two potent cups of coffee, the small ones of the type Europeans prefer. He held them uncertainly in his right hand, his left arm immobile by his side. These were the lingering effects of a stroke he had suffered only a few months before.
Joe Biden takes a gamble on George Floyd
Moments after clear and uncompromising consequences were levied on Derek Chauvin, a former Minneapolis police officer, for the murder of George Floyd, the new American president made himself plain: “It’s not enough. We can’t stop here.”
Earlier in the day, Biden had explicitly conveyed his wish that the jury (while sequestered) find the “right verdict,” and after the full suite of guilty verdicts were read, Biden phoned the victim’s family: “I think in [Floyd’s daughter] Gianna’s comment, ‘my dad is going to change the world.” He’s going to start to change it now.”
How the Bay of Pigs invasion began – and failed – 60 years on
Sixty years after the Bay of Pigs invasion – the failed attempt to overthrow Fidel Castro’s regime in Cuba – the island continues to celebrate its victory while the invaders who survived live on in the US with the satisfaction of having done their duty. BBC Mundo examines the military plan and the reality of what unfolded.
Johnny López de la Cruz feels deprived of air. Locked up in a lorry with more than 100 other prisoners, he can barely breathe.
Inside the vehicle, the detainees are getting desperate. They sweat. Several faint.
Following court order, FBI uses classic Friday document dump to release heavily redacted files on the death of Seth Rich
As I wrote elsewhere today, “As a rule, people who fight public disclosure tend to have something to hide.” I should add that when they conceal material even after being forced by a court order to disclose it, there’s even more reason to believe that there is something they are hiding.
The July 2016 murder of DNC Staffer Seth Rich has drawn our attention for years, and been the subject of litigation and efforts to suppress inquiry. But finally, after denying it had anything on the case, the FBI has been compelled via an FOIA lawsuit to disclose its records, and did release some in a Friday document dump, after heavily redacting them. But what little did make it through, given the concealment via redaction, still raises more questions.
GUNTER: Here’s what massive emissions reductions really means
On Thursday, as part of U.S. President Joe Biden’s virtual eco-summit of international leaders, our own Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pledged Canada to cut its greenhouse gas emissions by 40 or 45% from 2005 levels by 2030. That’s up from the 30% cut Canada had been pledging.
Are you as tingly as I am, fellow Canadian, about Justin’s latest pious promise?
What the Media Didn’t Tell You about the Chauvin Case
George Floyd should not have died, but the case does not stand as a totem of systemic racism either. Here are the facts.
If you did not watch the Derek Chauvin trial, but only heard the inflammatory comments spewing out of the White House and the media-Democrat complex, there are things about it you would never know. And you’d be apt to believe the claims that American law enforcement is systemically racist. I watched the trial day in and day out, so let me cut you in on a few basic facts.
National security law: former Chinese University student leader reveals he has fled to Canada fearing arrest in Hong Kong
A former student union chief at Hong Kong’s Chinese University who was involved in setting up a now-defunct cross-party platform for political cooperation in the city has revealed he fled to Canada fearing arrest under the national security law.
Ernie Chow Shue-fung was among a number of local activists and politicians – including outspoken church leaders – who recently left the city in the wake of the Beijing-imposed security law.
Watch what you say: Hong Kong civil servants become wary of office snitches jostling to prove loyalty
Alice* was working in a public-facing civilian job in one of Hong Kong’s disciplined services when she was transferred last year to the back office of another government department after her bosses received anonymous complaints about her.
The abrupt move caught her by surprise. She said she had only shared a news article about a police raid following the introduction of the national security law last June, without adding any comments of her own.
