Actor George Takei accused President Donald Trump and his allies of employing a Nazi playbook to exploit the assassination of conservative icon Charlie Kirk.
The Star Trek actor made his claim when sharing a Substack article on BlueSky with the headline, “Is Charlie Kirk Their Reichstag Moment?”
It’s really not a bad idea George, thanks for the input.
The release of the Canadian military’s review of the F-35 fighter jet is expected shortly but the U.S. has already signalled this country could face serious consequences if the Liberal government decides not to proceed with the arms deal.
Defence Minister David McGuinty has committed to the public release of the review which will come by the end of the summer.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Monday that “visa revocations are under way” for foreign visitors celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk.
“America will not host foreigners who celebrate the death of our fellow citizens,” Rubio said in a post on the social media platform X. “Visa revocations are under way. If you are here on a visa and cheering on the public assassination of a political figure, prepare to be deported.”

Two GTA men fighting extradition to the U.S. over their role in a drug trafficking syndicate allegedly led by Canadian ex-Olympian and fugitive drug lord Ryan Wedding are asking prosecutors to reveal more evidence to the defence in the wake of the apparent assassination of a “critical” FBI witness.
Gurpreet Singh, 31, and his uncle, Hardeep Ratte, 46, are in Canadian custody facing extradition for allegedly organizing shipments of more than 650 kilograms of cocaine into Canada on behalf of Wedding’s criminal enterprise.
Is Great Britain on the brink of a Trump revolution?
The president’s visit to the U.K. coincides with indications Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s Labour government is tottering.
Farage is in the driver’s seat. He is an opportunist and not to be trusted.
Authorities allege a man recently arrested in Ontario in connection with a human smuggling scheme dropped a family of four off near the Manitoba-U.S. border and told them to walk through blizzard conditions when their van got stuck in a remote, snow-covered area on the January 2022 night they froze to death.
Fenil Patel, who was living in Brampton, Ont., was arrested on Sept. 5 following an extradition request from the United States. The charges he’s expected to face there include conspiracy to bring aliens to the U.S. resulting in death, court documents obtained by CBC News say.
They’re fanning the flames.

Chrystia Freeland’s exit from cabinet, while not expected, is no great surprise.
The job of transport minister is unglamorous, dominated by regulation of railway rolling stock and of passenger bills of rights. The minister’s path is potholed with potentially career-limiting port, railway or airline strikes.
Former Conservative transport minister John Crosbie expressed his frustration in 1986 when he said no one understands how air fares work. “Why I should be expected to understand them is beyond me,” he said.
For someone with Freeland’s vaulting ambition, being parked in the backwater of transport, albeit with the additional nominal responsibility for internal trade, must have felt like those aspirations were being thwarted.
RUGBY, England—Stuart Field raised his first flags in July: the English red cross of St. George and also a smattering of the British red, white and blue, hanging them from his hometown’s streetlights.
His daughter had just been sent home from her school’s annual cultural celebration day for wearing a sparkly dress designed around the Union Jack. Field was infuriated. A flyer from the school had described the event as a way to recognize the diverse cultures represented among the students. “Wear your traditional cultural dress to school instead of your usual school uniform,” it said.
“Your attire must reflect your nationality or family heritage.”
Field’s daughter, 13-year-old Courtney Wright, had prepared a speech about what British culture meant to her, focusing on everything from afternoon tea to the royal family to the British sense of humor. But she never got a chance to deliver it: When she arrived at the school, she was isolated from the other students and then told to go home.
In the seven years since the Ontario Liberals got their proverbial backside handed to them in the 2018 election, the party has yet to develop a real ethos, focus, or intention. The party’s sell to the people of Ontario during the last two elections was simply that it will make things better, and also get rid of the current guy.

Jerry Greenfield resigned from his position at Ben & Jerry’s ice cream company, “with a broken heart,” according to a social media post by co-founder Ben Cohen on Wednesday.
The announcement follows years of friction between the co-founders and the company’s owner, Unilever, over social and political issues.
It also comes ahead of a planned stock market float of Unilever’s ice cream unit, The Magnum Ice Cream Company.
“Elbows Up,” a hockey phrase, became the campaign rallying cry of Canada’s Liberal Party this spring, whipping up a swell of patriotism in the face of President Trump’s menacing posture toward America’s neighbor.
In April, the sentiment lifted Mark Carney, a prominent economist but neophyte politician, to one of the most stunning electoral victories in Canada’s history. He promised to fight back against American tariffs and stand up for Canadian sovereignty.
But, after just a few months on the job, Mr. Carney is facing early signs of trouble as he discovers that being elected on an anti-Trump message does not mean you can govern on one, too.
The pivot to Charlie Kirk derangement is not working and the elbow people are adrift.
Prosecutors in the assassination of Charlie Kirk have revealed text messages that they say prove the suspect admitted to the killing.
Tyler Robinson, 22, has been charged with murder over the fatal shooting of Kirk, the popular conservative activist, at a university in Utah last week.

When asked why he did it, Robinson replied “I had enough of his hatred.”

The KGB once lauded Chrystia Freeland as someone who was “inventive” in achieving her goals.
The ex-Soviet spy agency’s insightful analysis is in need of an update to include the fact that she never achieved her ultimate goal of becoming prime minister despite an artful public letter that slipped a stiletto between the shoulder blades of Justin Trudeau.
She was an accomplice not a victim and deserves no praise.
She wanted to succeed Junior as leader.
In pursuing that wish dream she robbed Canada of a unifying moment.
Voting the Trudeau gov’t out of office was what virtually all Canadians dreamed of.
