The Death of the Irish Canon

The Death of the Irish Canon

In the opening vignette of the ‘Wandering Rocks’ episode in James Joyce’s Ulysses, Father John Conmee S.J. strolls from Dublin’s Mountjoy Square to the North Circular Road, on his way to a Christian Brothers’ school in Artane, to help a family in distress, while intermittently musing about the good work the Catholic Church has done not only in Dublin but even on the missions in far-off Africa.

Carney-Val Side Show Act – Man the US Is Sure Gonna Be Sorry About the Tariffs

Mark Carney and the Syrupeans are bleating again.

After spending the better part of the past twelve months jet-setting around the world, trying to drum up support for his New World Order, and, while out of the Northern Hemisphere, making sure to tell everyone just how bad the United States sucks, while sucking up to Donald Trump the second he comes home empty-handed, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is now in the F.O. part of his F.A. tour.

Who wants to fight for Britain now?

Who wants to fight for Britain now?

Each of us, I suspect, has at least one pretty niche belief. A view so odd that its best chance of ever being revealed may be through the discreet inquiry of a pollster.

A YouGov survey has discovered just such an unusual attitude among our population. A poll of 2,300 British adults found that a mere 6 per cent would volunteer to fight for their country in the event of an ‘imminent’ invasion. An astonishing figure, even in an unpatriotic age. (A further 14 per cent said they would fight if called up, 17 per cent would refuse any order to do so, and 52 per cent declared themselves ineligible on physical grounds.)

Amy Hamm: Boomers drunk on CBC is the source of Carney’s power

Amy Hamm: Boomers drunk on CBC is the source of Carney’s power

The results of an Abacus Data survey have again revealed which generations are keeping the rotten Liberal Party popular and in power. It’s the baby boomers and the silent generation, of course.

The new survey, released on Sunday, showed that “(a)mong Canadians aged 60 and over, the Liberals lead the Conservatives by 20 points, 52 per cent to 32 per cent.” Only one or two percentage points divide the Liberal/Conservative preference (measured as vote intention) among all other age groups, meaning that without the Boomers and their elders, our red and blue parties would be neck-and-neck in the polls.

Rand Paul Should Make Fauci Answer for Wuhan and BeagleGate Lies

Rand Paul Should Make Fauci Answer for Wuhan and BeagleGate Lies

Next week, Dr. Anthony Fauci is scheduled to testify before Sen. Rand Paul’s Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. After years of stonewalling, evasions, carefully parsed denials, and outright lies, this hearing presents a rare opportunity to get answers from America’s most notorious mad scientist, who recklessly funded dangerous animal experiments that likely caused COVID-19 and financed beagle torture in labs worldwide.

This time is different.

From Alberta Arson to a Gaza Fighter’s Crypto Wallet: Inside the Terror-Finance Case Exposing the West’s New Red-Green Axis

From Alberta Arson to a Gaza Fighter’s Crypto Wallet: Inside the Terror-Finance Case Exposing the West’s New Red-Green Axis

NORTH AMERICA — A Western network of far-left, openly antisemitic activists — its founding doctrine the rejection of peaceful protest — has fused with the Islamist armed-resistance axis in the emotional aftermath of the October 7 massacre and the war that followed.

Its first high-profile prosecution, unsealed this summer in upstate New York, arrives with granular financial detail that inverts the conventional picture of terrorist financing. In the most notorious modern case, the September 11 attacks, money moved from the Middle East into American cities to fund devastating actions. This time, the Department of Justice alleges, it moved the other way. Catherine Beth Washburn, 37, of Irondequoit, New York, is charged with wiring $30,116 in cryptocurrency, in roughly eighty transfers over six months, to a purported fighter for Palestine Islamic Jihad — the faction descended from the Muslim Brotherhood and backed, according to the intelligence sourcing quoted in the charging documents, by Iran and Lebanese Hizballah.

DSA Assault on Prisons Is Rooted in Third World Lust for Barbarism

DSA Assault on Prisons Is Rooted in Third World Lust for Barbarism

The Democratic Socialists of America are having a moment. In fact, they’re having a season. DSA candidates are winning nationwide in Democratic Party primaries, knocking off incumbents while running on some of the most deformed and deranged platforms in recent political memory. Zohran Mamdani, the charismatic young socialist in Gracie Mansion, is the new leader of the DSA pack. Terrifying as it may be, Zo may be the closest thing the entire activist left has these days to a kingmaker.

Trump Igniting Nuclear Arms Race in the Middle East

Trump Igniting Nuclear Arms Race in the Middle East

For more than two decades, the policy of the United States toward the Middle East, regardless of the party holding power in Washington, rested on the proposition that certain nuclear technologies are too dangerous to spread in an undemocratic region where regimes are overthrown and strategic realities change overnight. At the center of this policy sit centrifuges and uranium enrichment.

Canadians need an income of $155,850 to be happy, researchers say. Map shows cost per city

Common wisdom says that money can’t buy happiness. But if it could, researchers say, it would cost $155,850, making Canada the 14th most expensive nation in the world to purchase joy.

The slightly tongue-in-cheek study was produced by digital financial services provider Remitly, but based on an actual scientific paper published in 2018 by Purdue University, “adjusted to account for local purchasing power and inflation.”

USA TODAY Sports Columnist Gets Piece Sliced for Nasty Race-Baiting Caitlin Clark Comments

USA TODAY Sports Columnist Gets Piece Sliced for Nasty Race-Baiting Caitlin Clark Comments

USA Today sports columnist Nancy Armour is notorious for using her space on the sports page to drop liberal bombs. On Thursday, she took on the WNBA star who’s revitalized that league, under the headline “Caitlin Clark’s flopping isn’t just annoying — it’s becoming dangerous.”

Armour began by claiming Clark “and her enablers must take the rest of us for idiots” when Clark is “flopping. And her histrionics while doing so are putting other people in danger.” Some people get nasty on social media against players who flagrantly foul Clark.

Elon Musk Blasts Both Barrels, Reloads, and Fires Again

Elon Musk certainly knows how to grab you by the eyeballs and make you listen as he drops truth bombs on you. He may be the most interesting man in the world, although he doesn’t have quite the dashing good looks and smooth demeanor of the Dos Equis man.

As an autist, he doesn’t have the kind of slick charm and devilish demeanor of a Svengali who can charm you into anything. He has, instead, a keen intellect, an almost-charming bluntness, and an ability to see into dimensions of reality that are invisible to most of us.
