As the lights go out, Cuba’s true believers vow to resist US intervention

As the lights go out, Cuba’s true believers vow to resist US intervention

In the dark before dawn, Juan Victor Hernández Campo was cheerleading a 5,000-strong crowd in the outskirts of the Cuban provincial capital of Pinar del Rio. “Aquí, quien no salte es yanqui!” he roared. “If you don’t jump, you’re a Yankee!”

Those in front of him, in T-shirts commemorating Fidel and Raúl Castro’s 1953 attack on the Moncada military barracks, roared back and – as much as their age allowed – leapt to their feet.

When Hernández asked them for more, one woman pointed out he would struggle for lift-off himself given the size of his belly. He responded by pulling his T-shirt tight and proudly rotating like a courting turkey. “¡Abajo el bloqueo!” He shouted. “Down with the blockade!” The crowd laughed and waved small Cuban flags.

U.S. antisemitism envoy calls on Canada to restrict visas, expand terrorism listings

U.S. antisemitism envoy calls on Canada to restrict visas, expand terrorism listings

OTTAWA – U.S. President Donald Trump’s envoy for fighting antisemitism is urging Canada to revoke visas and expand terrorism listings to curb the rise of anti-Jewish hatred.

Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun, who spent seven years of his childhood in Ottawa, was appointed last December as U.S. special envoy to monitor and combat antisemitism, an ambassador-rank position.

“My message is to Canada, you need to do better,” Kaploun told The Canadian Press last week during a visit to Ottawa.


Trump’s man will trigger the Liberal Party.

A lot of unflattering articles today about Canada and the Islamist leanings of the Liberal-left.

Female cyclists accused of ‘faking larger bra size’ at Tour de France Femmes

A row has broken out at the Tour de France Femmes following allegations that some riders are artificially exaggerating their bust size to gain a “bra booster” aerodynamic advantage for Tuesday’s time trial.

According to WielerFlits, a leading cycling news platform in the Netherlands and Belgium, “several” women’s WorldTour teams have raised concerns that riders are padding their bras to “fake” a larger cup size.

Calls emerge for U.S. refugee status as group helps Jewish families flee Canada

Calls emerge for U.S. refugee status as group helps Jewish families flee Canada

OTTAWA — A former Ontario man and a Conservative U.S. think tank are encouraging the Trump administration to offer refugee status to Jewish Canadians who feel threatened by rising antisemitism here.

“With the urgency around the challenges and the inaction we see in Canada, an asylum pathway makes sense,” said Joe Roberts, the executive director of Jewish Tulsa, a group that has helped welcome Jews like himself to the Oklahoma city.

Roberts said thousands of Canadian Jews are seeking to escape constant fear over the firebombing of Jewish schools, temples and businesses.


REMIGRATION.

Carney government moves toward listing West Coast pipeline as national interest project

The federal government is advancing the process to designate Alberta’s proposed oil pipeline to the West Coast as a project of national interest.

A notice published in the Canada Gazette on Aug. 1 marks the start of a notice period to designate the potential pipeline as a project of national interest under Bill C-5.

That law requires the government to launch the 30-day notice period and consult with the government of the province or territory in which the project will be carried out before listing it under Schedule 1 as a project of national interest.

Police investigated journalist who tried to expose Cambridge professor

Police investigated journalist who tried to expose Cambridge professor

Scotland Yard investigated a journalist trying to expose a plagiarism row and told him to stop asking a Cambridge professor questions.

Jack Grove, a reporter for Times Higher Education (THE), was accused of harassment after he emailed a series of questions to Prof Jason Arday about his academic record. Mr Grove said officers told him to stop contacting the professor because his “mental health” had been affected by the questions.

Prof Arday also hired the law firm Carter-Ruck, which suggested in a letter to THE that its “apparent attack” on him “may be… racially motivated”.

Canadian who slapped U.S. teen to be deported

Canadian who slapped U.S. teen to be deported

Sometimes, you can get a little too “Elbows Up.”

Kaitlyn Tracey, 33, the Canadian mega-wokie who attacked an American teen girl decked out in pro-Trump gear on July 3 on a New Jersey boardwalk, will be deported back to Canada. A Texas immigration judge ordered Tracey to go home on Tuesday, after she entered a guilty plea to misdemeanor simple assault — part of a deal she made after she was arrested for her involvement in a caught-on-camera fracas with four teens.

What did we do wrong?

Video shows Russian drone chasing Ukrainian street vendor in ‘human safari’ attack

Video shows Russian drone chasing Ukrainian street vendor in ‘human safari’ attack

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has shared a video on social media of a drone hunting down a man in southern Ukraine, saying it showed an instance of a Russian “safari” attack against civilians.

The video shows the drone pursuing a street vendor on a city street in the Kherson region. The man moves away from the drone hovering above, before it chases him as he runs around a white van. Eventually, the drone swoops down on him and explodes on impact.

The man escaped with multiple shrapnel wounds, concussion and trauma, a doctor said.

Canada Has an Antisemitism Problem

Canada Has an Antisemitism Problem

“… Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow, a far-left radical so insidious she rivals New York’s Mayor Zohran Mamdani; Ontario Premier Doug Ford, an alleged conservative; and Liberal Prime Minister Mark Carney have issued versions of this statement repeatedly this year. Each attack is treated as an inexplicable eruption of generic “hate,” disconnected from the movement that has spent nearly three years supplying the language, targets and moral permissions surrounding it.”


Our “leaders” know perfectly well how to confront it.

But don’t expect remigration. They have chosen a side and it isn’t yours.

Nothing ever gets better with Islam.

Abdul El-Sayed SQUEAKS through with Michigan win as anguished Dems panic battleground seat may slip away

Progressive insurgent Abdul El-Sayed has been declared the winner of Tuesday’s rollercoaster Democratic primary for US Senate by NBC News.

El-Sayed’s slim victory over Congresswoman Haley Stevens is the most emphatic sign to date that the progressive wing of the Democratic Party is on the ascent, but not without baggage.

His single-point win will also raise new questions about whether his strength among base voters can translate to a general election this fall, as Democrats look to flip four seats necessary to secure a majority in the upper chamber.

Freeland crosses Beijing’s red lines with Taiwan speech

Freeland crosses Beijing’s red lines with Taiwan speech

OTTAWA — Former deputy PM Chrystia Freeland raised a few eyebrows and likely blood pressure in Beijing on Tuesday, delivering the keynote speech at a high-level security forum in Taiwan.

Speaking at the Ketagalan Forum in the Taiwanese capital of Taipei, Freeland drew direct parallels between Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine and the growing threat China poses to Taiwan — crossing several of Beijing’s absolute diplomatic red lines in the process.

Toronto activist group holds ‘private meetings’ on residency, services for ‘undocumented’ migrants

An activist group in Toronto is offering private meetings to “undocumented” migrants who wish to gain access to public services and permanent residency.

The Migrant Workers Alliance (MWA) posted on its social media accounts, with a graphic asking: “Undocumented in Toronto? Nanny, personal support worker, or caregiver?”


We know the Chairman Chow’s handlers approve, Ford and Carney are both too welded to the ethnic teat to put a stop to it.

We need a revolution.
