The Miseducation of America’s Elites: Affluent parents, terrified of running afoul of the new orthodoxy in their children’s private schools, organize in secret.
The dissidents use pseudonyms and turn off their videos when they meet for clandestine Zoom calls. They are usually coordinating soccer practices and carpools, but now they come together to strategize. They say that they could face profound repercussions if anyone knew they were talking.
But the situation of late has become too egregious for emails or complaining on conference calls. So one recent weekend, on a leafy street in West Los Angeles, they gathered in person and invited me to join.
House Passes Democrat Bill Criminalizing Private Gun Sales
H.R. 8 would expand retail point-of-sale background checks so as to cover private points-of-sale. This will criminalize an individual who sells a 5-shot revolver to a lifelong neighbor, unless that neighbor first undergoes a National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) check, conducted by the FBI.
The only way this can be enforced is with a National Gun Registry. So you know what’s next.
Liberals’ New Hate Speech Bill Could Lead to Revival of Controversial Law
Canada’s new hate speech legislation soon to be tabled by the federal government may include a new statutory definition of hate and could revive a controversial law previously repealed for infringing on rights.
Repealed in 2013, Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act had made it an act of discrimination to communicate anything online or by telephone that was “likely to expose” a person to hatred or contempt, as long as they were “identifiable on the basis of a prohibited ground of discrimination.”
The controversial law was widely criticized for being overly broad with weak safeguards to protect speech rights.
Newly Appointed Editor of Uber Woke Teen Vogue Apologizes For Anti-Asian Tweets
The newly-appointed editor of Teen Vogue has apologised for “racist and homophobic” tweets she wrote in 2011 at the age of 19.
Staff at the magazine signed a letter in protest at the hiring of Alexi McCammond, now 29, over the comments.
The letter said it rejected her sentiments at this “moment of historically high anti-Asian violence”.
Many nursing home workers haven’t consented to COVID-19 vaccine, association says

Chicago Suburb Becomes First U.S. City to Offer Reparations for ‘Historical Racism’—But It’s Already Being Called ‘Anti-Black’
Evanston, Ill., is a suburb of 75,000 residents directly north of the city of Chicago. Aside from being the home of Northwestern University and the birthplace of dozens of famous actors, including Bill Murray, the city is known as just an extension of Chicago.
Now, Evanston will be known as the first city in the country to offer reparations to black people. The Evanston City Council will vote on March 22 to finalize a plan that was approved by voters in 2019 offering reparations to black people for “historical racism and discrimination.”
Like welfare, once begun, there is no way to end it.
California’s Proposed “Ethnic Studies” Curriculum Urges Students to Chant to Aztec Deity of Human Sacrifice and Cannibalism – Calls For “Counter-Genocide” Against White Christians
Christian prayer in public school is prohibited, but now the Marxists in California are trying to force millions of students to chant to the Aztec gods of human sacrifice and cannibalism.
California’s proposed “ethnic studies” curriculum calls for the “decolonization” of American society and a “counter-genocide” against white Christians.
The Two Michaels to Be Tried Soon
And no one in the government knew:
Canadian officials are not aware of any new timeline for the trials of two Canadians detained in China, despite reports in China claiming Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig will soon be tried.
In an article published in the Global Times, an English-language paper that effectively functions as a mouthpiece for the Chinese government, a source “close to the matter” is cited saying that the two Canadians have “already been prosecuted.”
“Another source close to the matter told the Global Times previously that due to the COVID-19 epidemic situation, the hearings for both cases have yet to commence, and the court will push forward the trial soon,” the article reads.
Singh’s Brother-In-Law Involved In Confrontation
It’s a melting pot … of cultural hatreds:
A widely viewed video appears to show Singh’s brother-in-law pushing a pro-India demonstrator to the ground at an Ontario rally, an incident now under police investigation. The man is also related to Liberal MP Ruby Sahota.
You Must Pass the Bill Before You Read It
It’s that famed Liberal transparency and vigilance I’ve heard so much about:
Then-Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau gave his own cabinet scant minutes to hurriedly review the National Energy Program the very day it was introduced in Parliament, say declassified secret records obtained by Blacklock’s. Cabinet members complained they could not “get an adequate grasp of the details” of the landmark tax plan: “Ministers were generally surprised.”
But Pierre wasn’t done with his @$$holery:
Then-Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau proposed to introduce a permanent federal lottery “in support of the Liberal party” but vowed to keep planning low-key, say declassified records. The secret 1980 plan was stymied by an agreement signed by a previous Conservative cabinet: “There did not seem to be a reason for the federal government to avoid acting in this area as a trade-off.”
Kielburgers’ appearance before ethics committee WE probe uncertain as brothers demand conditions
Their lawyers want to be allowed to be present physically during the hearing, issue an opening statement, as well as intervene and object to certain questions.
In Some Countries, Lockdowns May Be the “New Normal”
With such flawed studies and claims regularly echoed by politicians and media outlets—and with, of course, covid-19 posing a genuine threat to a small percentage of populations—it is understandable that the public can be scared into submission. Propaganda is propaganda, whether based on truth, lies, or a mixture of both. Since early 2020, in many European countries and some US states, we’ve seen that this social subservience has happened on a massive scale, and without much resistance.
NYC school encourages kids to stop using words like ‘mom,’ ‘dad’ in ‘inclusive language’ guide
The detailed guide recommends using the terms “grown-ups,” “folks,” “family” or “guardians” as alternatives to “mom,” “dad” and “parents.” It also suggests using “caregiver” instead of “nanny/babysitter.”
Switzerland: Voters Approve ‘Burqa Ban’
Swiss voters have narrowly approved a proposal to ban face coverings in public spaces. The measure comes just over a decade after citizens voted to ban the construction of minarets, the tower-like structures on mosques that are often used to call Muslims to prayer.
The referenda reflect the determination of a majority of Swiss voters to preserve Swiss traditions and values in the face of runaway multiculturalism and the encroachment of political Islam.
Switzerland now joins Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Latvia, the Netherlands and Sweden, all of which currently have full or partial bans on religious and non-religious face coverings.
