SAIPAN – The irony was almost too neat, and Jim Kingman felt it land as he sat in the gleaming, barely used federal courthouse on Saipan in the summer of 2024 and watched the United States government close the book on Julian Assange.
They had come a very long way to do it. The head of the Justice Department’s national security division flew in that morning; by early afternoon the WikiLeaks founder had pleaded guilty to a single Espionage Act count over the disclosure of Bradley Manning’s classified files, been sentenced to time served, and was gone — three hours, beginning to end, the federal lawyers not bothering to feign curiosity about the island they had chosen as the stage.
THE Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) published some startling figures on Thursday. The latest HMRC payroll data, their analysis reveals, shows that the number of young foreigners entering the workforce massively outstrips UK nationals.
Specifically the number of non-EU migrants on the payrolls rose from 82,000 in January 2020 to 370,000 in December 2025 – an increase of 290,000 and up 355 per cent over five years compared to just 11,000 extra young UK nationals.
At Cooper’s Brewery in Adelaide, the largest family-owned brewing business in Australia, forklifts glide around the sizeable factory floor. With ease, they shelve boxes of lagers and ales. But nobody is at the wheel. In fact, there isn’t a wheel at all. Or a seat. These forklifts are automated guided vehicles (AGVs), a pretty old form of robotics that uses lasers, floor markers or other navigation systems to follow pre-planned paths.
People had always imagined that robots would look like us, but these forklifts hint at a different future — one in which robots are made in the image of the work, not the worker.
This week brings yet more evidence of working-class voters having ditched the Labour Party for Reform UK. A new survey reveals that trade-union members, who have historically been very left-wing, are now evenly split between support for Reform and Labour. Astonishingly, Nigel Farage comes out on top as their preferred choice for prime minister. It is Farage, not Keir Starmer, who is perceived as the party leader most likely to benefit working people.
Pundit Bill O’Reilly recently said he was “surprised” that ex-New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo lost to Zohran Mamdani in the 2025 New York City mayoral race.
“I thought,” he told Cuomo during a May 14 discussion, “you were going to wax them [your competitors].”
Do you know when I realized Mamdani would win?
The very first time I saw him on TV.
Gov. Gavin Newsom and other state Democrats bragged that they had set the state standard for protecting illegal alien criminals by not only refusing to cooperate at the state level, but actually banning and even penalizing any local law enforcement cooperation with federal immigration authorities.
It is time to say plainly what too many in Canadian public life still prefer to obscure.
Prime Minister Mark Carney’s expected announcement Monday on antisemitism is not simply about antisemitism. It is about pressure.
The dozen or so pastors and podcasters who arrived at the Airbnb in Nashville one night in February weren’t sure exactly what they were in for. An organizer asked them to turn their phones on airplane mode. Snacks were served. Then, for at least two hours, two mysterious men presented a slide show laying out the evidence, as they saw it, for some kind of extraterrestrial life and the spiritual confusion that coming revelations could sow among Christians.
“It was the weirdest meeting I’ve ever been a part of,” said Alan DiDio, a pastor in North Carolina who attended. “You’ve never seen that many Pentecostals in a room that quiet.”
Drag performers. A fire captain. An independent journalist and a bylaw officer.
Welcome to Cannington, Ont., where there was no fire Saturday.
But there were fireworks.
European Union member states are weighing whether Ukrainian men of military age should be excluded from future extensions of the bloc’s temporary protection scheme for people fleeing the war with Russia.
According to an internal Council of the EU document seen by Euractiv, one of the options under consideration would be to extend temporary protection while narrowing its eligibility criteria. The paper references “the exclusion of men of conscription age” as well as individuals who did not leave Ukraine legally. The current framework is due to remain in effect until March 2027, and any such restriction would apply only to future applicants seeking temporary protection status.
A doctor heavily involved in the gender transition of minors is now the 2026-2027 head of the Canadian Pediatric Society (CPS).
On May 23, CPS announced Dr. Natasha Johnson would be their new president for a one-year term, the same doctor responsible for founding the Gender Diversity Clinic at McMaster’s Children’s Hospital back in 2016.

New evidence in the Charlie Kirk assassination is set to be made public at a hearing next month, a Utah judge ruled Monday.
Suspect Tyler Robinson’s lawyers sought to bar news cameras from a five-day preliminary hearing set for July, when the prosecution is expected to lay out evidence against the 23-year-old defendant.
District Judge Tony Graf rejected that motion.
Central Canadian political elites are upset with Alberta Premier Danielle Smith’s decision to hold a referendum that might eventually lead to a sovereign Alberta.
While sovereigntist sentiment in Quebec has long been acknowledged and accommodated in English Canada, Western alienation is treated with who-do-they-think-they-are condescension.
That condescension led to the referendum. Decades of decisions made in Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal have stoked the anger that led Ms. Smith to call this vote. The Laurentian elites are every bit as responsible for this situation as is the Premier or anyone else.
