US President Donald Trump’s administration has asked the Supreme Court to let it withhold more than $4bn (£3bn) in foreign aid.
The administration is seeking an emergency order as it tries to claw back funds for foreign assistance programmes that have already been allocated by Congress.
A lower court last week said the Trump administration had a statutory obligation to spend the money, and an appeals court declined last Friday to freeze that ruling.
In the political version of self-flagellation, the Ontario Liberals have released an internal review of their campaign loss in last winter’s snap election called by Premier Doug Ford.
The report, which analyzes the Liberals’ third consecutive loss to Ford’s Progressive Conservatives, focused on new leader Bonnie Crombie, who brought dazzle to fundraising events but also created a “ripple of negative consequences” for potential Liberal candidates due to a delayed decision in her riding seat selection.
The anti-Trump media machine just suffered another embarrassing collapse, and it happened in front of millions of viewers.
On Sunday, President Donald Trump attended the U.S. Open men’s final in New York, and if you only followed the initial wave of left-wing reports, you’d think the crowd drove him from Arthur Ashe Stadium by deafening boos. Social media was bursting with giddy claims from leftists that Trump had been “mercilessly booed,” and the legacy media happily repeated the narrative.
York Regional Police Chief Jim MacSween’s recent comments that homeowners should “comply” with demands from violent intruders has caught the attention of several Hollywood big names.
Following the murder of Abdul Aleem Farooqi in front of his family after he “confronted” a group of intruders inside his Kleinburg, Ont., home, MacSween advised homeowners not to fight back.

At least 19 people were shot, seven of them fatally, during the weekend across Mayor Brandon Johnson’s (D) Chicago.
CBS News reported that the weekend’s first fatal shooting occurred Friday about 9:30 p.m. “in the 1300 block of South Michigan Avenue.” Two men got into an argument and a gun was produced, and the gun was fired as the two men fought over it. A 31-year-old year old man was shot in the head and killed.
Those with an attentive ear may have picked up on the distinct sound of sobbing emanating from the Department of Canadian Identity and Culture. They are the sobs of its minister, erstwhile minister of environment and climate change, Stephen Guilbeault, watching the slow but certain immolation of Canada’s electric vehicle sales mandate, as it goes up in smoke. Friday, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced that automakers would no longer need to have 20 per cent of their sales be zero emission vehicles, either fully electric or hybrid election, in 2026.
GoFundMe has yanked sickening online fundraisers for the maniac accused of murdering a Ukrainian refugee on a North Carolina train after the legal defense funds sparked widespread outrage.
The fundraising pages suggested Decarlos Brown Jr. — a career criminal with no fewer than 14 arrests — is just as much a victim as Iryna Zarutska, the woman seen being knifed dozens of times in a random attack.
Helping the 35-year-old homeless suspect would also support the “fight against the racism and bias against our people,” one fundraiser reckoned.
OK, Mr.Carney, whom few Canadians knew nine months ago, who had no political experience, who captured the Liberal Leadership and therefore the Prime Ministership because of Ottawa Insiders, who promised that he would lead Canada to a solid economic and social footing, who would put the boots to Donald Trump, who received the endorsement of Canadians to take immediate action.
You have been timed out.

For some reason, Germany loves recruiting migrants into its police force in the name of diversity. In 2022, roughly 42% of police recruits who took the most common path into Berlin’s police force were migrants or came from migrant families, according to a major survey (37% including all pathways).
Black TDSB students say they face ‘dehumanizing’ racism, greater academic hurdles, new studies find
The group of Black girls were chatting in the hall on their way to their next class when a teacher told them to hurry.
When the students didn’t immediately speed up, the same teacher allegedly said: “Oh, what if it was a bucket of fried chicken? You’d be running.”
Examples like these came up again and again while Olivia Bernard, a University of Toronto PhD student, researched the experiences of Black female students at a Black Creek-area high school in 2021 and 2022.
Both studies sound like their ‘findings’ were based on the made up stories of mischievous kids well schooled in perpetual victimhood by the TDSB itself.
It’s no secret that the TDSB’s racist DEI program has labeled White people and especially white Christians and Jews as immutably racist oppressors based solely on their skin colour and religions.
The same policies that have made Jewish students feel unsafe have also created inhospitable environments for Hindu, Christian and Asian students, she said, adding that the human rights department at the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) trains staff on “who qualifies as an oppressor,” singling out Christians.
And …
For example, woke math pedagogues decided it was more important to elevate the status of Indigenous “ways of knowing” as a means of combatting alleged white supremacy than it was to preserve the traditional, and effective, instructive teacher-student “settler” model.
Omar al-Bayoumi was arrested in Birmingham days after the atrocity. But police were never given crucial evidence by the FBI
Scotland Yard was forced to release an alleged Saudi intelligence officer who provided financial backing and support to the 9/11 hijackers after the FBI failed to share crucial evidence.
The Sunday Times can today reveal that counterterrorism officers who interviewed Omar al-Bayoumi after he was arrested in Birmingham — ten days after two aircraft crashed into the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York — were never given a potentially damning document and video linking him to the attacks.
Very strange revelation. Someone wanted this hidden.
What’s in the box? Another Parkside Drive speed camera.
That makes seven so far.
Toronto’s most prolific speed camera was decapitated again last night for the seventh time in 11 months. A Toronto Police Service spokesperson confirmed a report of the incident and said they are investigating.
This week, a man accused of plotting to assassinate US President Donald Trump last September will stand trial in Florida.
The incident – which occurred just weeks after a bullet grazed Trump’s ear in another assassination attempt in Pennsylvania – further underscored the issue of political violence in the months leading up to the 2024 election.
Both incidents prompted intense scrutiny of the US Secret Service and its ability to protect high-profile presidential candidates like Trump.
