The President is bending over backwards to satisfy the Democrats’ ‘woke’ wing
“It is the problem of the society that produces the racist,” U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield told the National Action Network this week. “And in today’s world, that’s every society.” Said America’s envoy in Turtle Bay: “White supremacy is weaved into our founding documents and principles.”
Big businesses are aggressively interfering in politics – and liberals are egging them on.
Woke capital is on the offensive. This past week, CEOs of big corporations have aggressively inserted themselves into politics, threatening to use their economic power to override legislation. This is a serious menace to democracy.
A white protester who joined in a Black Lives Matter demonstration over Sunday’s police shooting in suburban Minneapolis apparently overstepped his bounds, being told to leave for failing to be a proper guest “in a black space.”
Footage from Thursday night’s protest in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, shows a confrontation between a group of black protestors and a young white man. Washington Examiner journalist Nic Rowan, who posted the video on Twitter, said the conflict began after a group of white protesters told demonstrators to stop throwing water bottles at police.
As with all the other pillars of traditional America, business has gone horribly wrong.
What a pitiful trajectory the woke leaders of large American corporations have traced as American business, once a pillar of American society and political science, has crumbled along with other pillars as if in a choreographed sequence.
The senior levels of national intelligence and the Justice Department were tainted in the nonsense about collusion between Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign and Russia in 2016. Academia, apparently down to kindergarten, largely has been transformed into a massive brainwashing operation to convince the country’s youth that the United States is hateful and racist. The national political media have failed catastrophically and all surveys show that over 80 percent of Americans don’t believe a word they read or hear from that source. Any sector of American society which has done such savage violence to its own franchise will pay dearly for it commercially.
Hundreds of people gathered in Logan Square Park on Friday evening to demand justice for 13-year-old Adam Toledo and all victims of police violence, according to organizers.
By 6 p.m., the rally, peaceful but passionate, was underway, and speeches had started at Logan Square Park, 3150 W. Logan Blvd.

Growing outbreaks of the Brazilian COVID-19 variant in Canada prompted health officials to quietly cease enhanced screening measures for travellers arriving from the South American nation.
In a statement sent to the Sun, the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) said the extra screening didn’t seem necessary as the infectious and increasingly vaccine-resistant variant of concern (VOC) had already gained a significant foothold in this country.
Oh! Oh! South African variant cases rise amid reports several infected people have had a Covid vaccine dose
“I, Erin O’Toole, promise that, if elected Prime Minister of Canada, I will: Immediately repeal the Trudeau carbon tax; and, reject any future national carbon tax or cap-and-trade scheme.” — A Canadian Taxpayers Federation pledgesigned by Erin O’Toole when soliciting support for his bid to lead the Conservative party.
Last seen falling off his horse on the road to Green Damascus, Erin O’Toole is thought by many to be the leader of a party known as Conservative.
In a setback for refugee advocates, the Federal Court of Appeal has rejected the argument that it is unconstitutional for Canada to turn back refugees at the U.S. land border and prevent them from seeking asylum in this country.
The court sided with the federal government Thursday in overturning a lower court decision that had called into question the future of the Safe Third Country Agreement (STCA), amid arguments that the United States cannot be considered a safe country for asylum seekers.
The decision will have devastating effects on would-be refugee claimants, their advocates say.
It’s unclear whether liberals are hopelessly naive about the job police officers do or whether they just simply hate law enforcement.
Either way, the result is the same — we’re all less safe, and that is especially true of nonwhites.
Columbia University professor (eye roll, I know) Sarah Seo weighed in on the recent police shooting death of 20-year-old black man Daunte Wright, opining in the New York Times that “traffic stops should not be harrowing or dangerous experiences, but too often they are for people of color.”
Trudeau’s made-in-Canada vaccine roll-out debacle may become the biggest scandal in Canadian history because lives are involved.
As of April 15, 22.7 per cent of all Americans were fully vaccinated (or received two doses) and another 38.6 per cent have received their first dose. That is roughly 251 million doses. By contrast, Canada has only provided 8.5 million doses, most of which will be reduced in effectiveness because of the Trudeau government’s decision to delay the second dose by 16 weeks, contrary to pharma-company instructions.
Thirteen-year-old Adam Toledo didn’t deserve to die. He didn’t deserve to die for violating curfew. He didn’t deserve to die for unlawfully discharging a weapon. He didn’t deserve to die for being in possession of a handgun. He didn’t deserve to die because he was a black kid in a high-crime area. He didn’t deserve to die for running away when police ordered him to stop. He didn’t even deserve to die for having a gun in his hand and running away from the police. Police are trained to handle situations like this without killing someone.
Ontario is setting up checkpoints at provincial land borders and enhancing police powers to enforce public health measures as part of a push to curb the spread of COVID-19, as new modelling warns of more than 15,000 new cases a day in the province.
The province is also extending its state of emergency and the current stay-at-home order by at least two weeks beyond its current end date of May 5. The government is shutting down non-essential construction at places such as shopping centres and office towers, and outlawing all outdoor activities such as golf, basketball, and playgrounds, as well as outdoor gatherings from outside one’s household, and limiting capacity at businesses such as grocery stores to 25 per cent. After previously loosening the rules, church services, as well as weddings and funerals, will now be capped at ten people indoors and outdoors.

Canadian Constitution Foundation condemns new Ontario police powers as “police state”
TORONTO: The Canadian Constitution Foundation (CCF) is today condemning the new powers that have been granted to Ontario police to enforce the province-wide stay at home order.
The new enforcement powers include giving the police the power to stop individuals and vehicles to ask for their name, address, and their purpose for being away from their residence. The powers comes into effect as of midnight on April 17, 2021.
The principle behind a carbon tax is to make people use less fossil fuel energy by making it more expensive to buy it.
This applies whether it’s gasoline to power our cars, or natural gas to heat our homes.
Thirty years ago, the United States began to open its doors to China under the “constructive engagement” policy. The hope was to help liberalize China and steer it to be a “stable, open, and non-aggressive” world player, as former President Bill Clinton envisioned.
At that time, China’s technology lagged behind the United States’. It was unthinkable then that China would one day become a tech competitor. After three decades of open trade, the United States is waking up to a world in which China seems to be within arm’s length of replacing it as the world’s top tech provider.
The China class says no.
