‘You’re Not Welcome’: Patrons Boo Commie Mamdani Out of Restaurant

“There’s the Communist!… Go home! You hate Jews!” When pro-jihad, socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani came to Staten Island and visited a local restaurant, he did not exactly receive the warm welcome that he was probably expecting.

Former justice minister Irwin Cotler calls on Israel to end war, starvation in Gaza

Former Liberal justice minister Irwin Cotler has joined thousands of Jews calling on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end the war and starvation in Gaza.

The longtime human rights activist is a staunch supporter of Israel and has faced death threats from Iran over his support for the Jewish state and democracy worldwide. He has signed an open letter saying Netanyahu is jeopardizing peace at home and abroad.

“The policies and rhetoric of the government you lead are doing lasting damage to Israel, its standing in the world and the prospects of secure peace for all Israelis and Palestinians,” the letter reads.

My bet is Netanyahu will remain in power at least until an Israeli made peace is accomplished.

I doubt Israel is much concerned with Cotler’s effort to remain on progressive invite lists.

What Musk, Altman and Others Say About AI-Funded ‘Universal Basic Income’

AI is making ever more jobs obsolete. The solution from Silicon Valley? A universal paycheck, no work required.

Technology titans including Elon Musk and Sam Altman see a future flush with wealth generated by artificial intelligence. Some tech heavyweights have endorsed no-strings cash distributions for a decade, so-called universal basic income, or UBI.

While many think of UBI as a taxpayer-funded system, Silicon Valley’s elite envision AI doing humans’ work, from mundane factory jobs to highly skilled white-collar roles, and funding payouts through cost savings and more revenue. Tech leaders say that revenue can be shared under a massive wealth-redistribution system.

Suddenly, an idea once seen as a socialist policy that would reward idleness is one of the AI boom’s hottest acronyms.

41 per cent of Canadians support Mark Carney’s move to recognize Palestinian state: poll

A plurality of Canadians believe Canada’s move to recognize a Palestinian state is a good idea, while nearly one-third of Canadians are against it, according to recent polling.

The polling by Leger for Postmedia found that 41 per cent of poll respondents support Prime Minister Mark Carney’s decision to recognize a state of Palestine. In late July, Carney’s office announced that if certain conditions were met, Canada would recognize such a state at the United Nations General Assembly in September.

It was an online survey.

One Massacre Illustrates Why Second Amendment Exists

There’s no real debate about 9/11 being the worst massacre in American history, at least within the context of someone or a group killing as many people as quickly as possible, generally in a single day.

But before then, there was another massacre that reigned supreme, and while it involved plenty of guns, making it an exception to my look at massacres of the past where they weren’t used, it’s actually a great example of why we need the Second Amendment.

See, this one was carried out by the United States government.

GUNTER: Pure folly for Liberals to try to force electric vehicles on Canadians

The Liberals’ devotion to their EV (electric vehicle) mandate borders on the cultish. They are certain, as all True Believers are, that if only they believe passionately enough (and spend enough taxpayers’ money), they will be able to convince all Canadians to buy EVs.

Or they’ll force us to.

Command of the Seafloor Is the New Naval Challenge

As the U.S. Navy struggles to catch up with the People’s Republic of China’s rapid expansion as a growing maritime power, yet another frontier must be added to its responsibility for the ocean’s surface, subsurface and the sky above them. A vast undersea infrastructure, spanning the world in the form of telecommunications cables and resource pipelines, for the most part lies unmonitored and unprotected on the ocean floor. Increasingly, these assets are coming under attack.

‘I am going to rip that label off:’ Ford slams Campbell’s over branding touting Canadian ties

Ontario Premier Doug Ford is once again floating the idea of introducing legislation that would force companies to place a flag of origin on their products as he takes aim at Campbell’s for ‘misleading people’ with some of its soup labels.

Ford brought up the matter during an unrelated news conference in Pickering on Thursday, where he mused about legislation that would make it easier for shoppers to identify which products are made outside of Canada amid the ongoing trade war with the U.S.

Bondi Tightens Trump Administration’s Grip on D.C. Police

Attorney General Pam Bondi on Thursday night rescinded Washington, D.C., policies that restrict the local police from aiding in immigration enforcement as she moved to tighten the Trump administration’s grip over law enforcement in the nation’s capital.

The two-page order from Ms. Bondi also declared that Terry Cole, the head of the Drug Enforcement Administration, who had already been overseeing the federal takeover of the city’s police department, was now the “emergency police commissioner,” with “all the powers and duties” invested in the city’s police chief, Pamela A. Smith.
