Drunk Brothers Call DoorDash During Six-Hour Standoff With Police

In the middle of a nearly six-hour standoff with Gillette police, a pair of drunk and uncooperative brothers apparently got a little hungry, surprising law enforcement outside their Limecreek Avenue home when DoorDash showed up.

About an hour into trying to get the brothers out of the home early Thursday morning, “a DoorDash delivery driver arrived to drop off food at the home,” wrote Gillette Police Officer Eric Small in an affidavit of probable cause filed in the case that was made available Monday.

Kitten Rescue Group Doubles Down on Dehumanizing Conservatives After PETA Rebuke

Kitten Rescue Group Doubles Down on Dehumanizing Conservatives After PETA Rebuke

Imagine being so far left even PETA berates you. That’s what happened to a New York City based kitten rescue group recently after they went viral for announcing a new policy that excludes conservatives, “MAGA,” and even those who are apolitical, from adopting cats from their rescue group. PETA, in turn, publicly stated the policy should be “ reconsidered and abolished.” However, the group’s owner has since doubled down on her hateful stance in another angry rant Sunday evening, warning, “Babes, this isn’t going to end the way you want it to with me.”

Trump’s Tariffs Push Canadian Companies to Look Past American Links

Trump’s Tariffs Push Canadian Companies to Look Past American Links

Before President Trump returned to office, unleashing a trade war featuring special animus toward Canada, Michael Goldstein saw his Vancouver start-up as complementary to American interests.

His company, Accelovant, makes temperature sensors used to produce computer chips — the brains of modern manufacturing. Canada and the United States shared an interest in limiting their dependence on chip factories in Asia. He was supplying critical components, many of which were being made in the United States.

Canadian youth just keep getting more conservative under Carney

Canadian youth just keep getting more conservative under Carney

Youth are now the single most Conservative demographic in Canada and an election decided exclusively by voters under 30 would be an easy Tory victory, according to figures released by Abacus Data.

The poll is yet more evidence of a uniquely Canadian phenomenon of young people becoming increasingly right-wing while the reverse happens among their elders.

RAF plot ‘may have been a dry run’

Five men arrested on suspicion of a bomb plot near a Royal Air Force base may have been conducting a “dry run”, it is feared.

The British nationals, all aged in their 20s, were detained on suspicion of offences under the Explosives Act and preparation of a terrorist act contrary to Section 5 of the Terrorism Act near RAF Fairford on Sunday.

They had travelled to the area in three vans, found 400m from the Gloucestershire air base, which were later examined by army bomb-disposal specialists and a robot.

RAF Fairford incident involves ‘foreign actor’, says Rubio

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has said the suspected terror plot at RAF Fairford “clearly involves the hands of a foreign actor”.

In an interview with Fox News on Monday, Rubio said “I think it ties us to the reality here, and that is we are dealing with elements in the world, and in the case of Iran, for example, who have openly threatened to attack American interests globally”.

He did not provide evidence or further details. Tehran has strongly denied any involvement.

Security experts call for inquiry into Havana Syndrome cases at Canada’s embassy in Cuba

Security experts call for inquiry into Havana Syndrome cases at Canada’s embassy in Cuba

Parliamentarians need to independently investigate whether Russia used sonic weaponry against Canadian diplomats in Cuba, where they were allegedly helping U.S. intelligence agencies, and how the diplomats were subsequently treated by Ottawa, former Canadian spies and high-level security officials say.

The Globe and Mail reported Saturday that, according to a source, a Canadian diplomat was sharing intelligence with American spies in Havana. Canadians were also using satellite equipment brought into Cuba under diplomatic cover by the U.S. between 2016 and 2018, a second source said.

Reports that Netanyahu ignored Oct. 7 warnings dominate Israeli election

JERUSALEM — A slew of reports that Arab officials warned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about a serious threat emerging from Gaza days before the Oct. 7, 2023, attack by Hamas have put the longtime Israeli leader on the defensive less than 30 days before a pivotal election.

Ever since the attack, the most deadly in Israel’s history, Netanyahu has argued that Israeli security chiefs collectively failed to foresee the surprise attack by Hamas — but that he led the fightback, scoring redemptive battlefield victories in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Iran.

Wait times for most priority surgeries in Ontario have increased since 2017, study says

Wait times for most priority surgeries in Ontario have increased since 2017, study says

Wait times for most of the province’s publicly funded priority surgeries and procedures have increased between 2017 and 2025, according to a study released Monday.

MRI scans, cataract surgeries and all cancer surgeries are among eight priority procedures that saw increased wait times during the period, out of a total of 12, according to the study published by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives (CCPA).

“It’s deeply alarming that so much money has been spent on for-profit surgeries and, yet, we don’t have the results to show what Ontarians are getting for those dollars,” said Andrew Longhurst, senior researcher at the centre.


I bet people abandoned OHIP in such numbers the private system is overwhelmed.

And what role does dumping the 3rd World into the mix have to do with this?
