Steve Bannon Says Elon Musk Is Owned by Chinese Communist Party

Former White House strategist Steve Bannon has called Tesla founder Elon Musk “a complete phoney” and accused him of being in hock to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

Bannon made the comment on the Tim Pool Daily Show podcast after Musk tweeted that he was “open to the idea” of acquiring Silicon Valley Bank (SVB). The tech lender went under on Friday, stranding billions of dollars of investors’ and companies’ money, in the second-largest bank failure in U.S. history.

China is Big Business to Musk

Conservatives more trusted than Liberals to manage federal finances, Nanos survey says

Conservatives are now more trusted than the Liberals when it comes to managing Ottawa’s finances, according to a new Nanos survey conducted for The Globe and Mail ahead of the coming federal budget.

Pollster Nik Nanos said the results, in which 28 per cent of respondents favoured Conservatives compared with 22 per cent for the Liberals, should be concerning for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government.

Canada: inquiry into police unit accused of excessive force against green activists

Canada’s federal police force has opened an investigation into a controversial unit tasked with overseeing environmental protests, following hundreds of complaints that officers used excessive force, disregarded court orders and violated protesters’ rights.

The Civilian Review and Complaints Commission, a watchdog arm of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, said on Thursday it would examine the activities of the community-industry response group, or C-IRG, based in British Columbia.

PROTECTING NATURE, DESTROYING LIVES – The chemist vs. the Dutch farmers

Johan Vollenbroek is accustomed to threats on his life. On a cold January day, as he was opening his mail at his home in the Dutch city of Nijmegen, a fine powder spilled from an envelope.

With the calmness of a trained chemist, Vollenbroek closed the package, washed his hands and dialed the police contact number he’s been told to use to report death threats. The police arrived in full protective gear. It turned out to be silicate, a benign chemical sent with malign intent, but it was not the first time the 73-year-old had received a menacing letter.

Liberal politician in Beijing’s pocket calls for public inquiry into ‘unlawful’ CSIS

A prominent Ontario politician with a history of echoing Beijing’s talking points on controversial issues is urging Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to call an inquiry into Canada’s spy agency, accusing it of a litany of wrongdoing from racial profiling to spreading false allegations.

No different than Justin having the RCMP investigate the CSIS “leaker.”

Jagmeet Singh is propping up Trudeau because that’s the only thing that gives him any relevance at all

Justin Trudeau is disappointing Jagmeet Singh. Here’s why the NDP leader is propping him up anyway

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh had tough words for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau this week.

“It seems like the prime minister is more interested in protecting himself than protecting the electoral system,” he charged in question period.

With more and more media leaks alleging China’s interference in Canada’s democratic processes, Singh told reporters, it was “really clear” the government’s actions — referrals to two national security review bodies and the impending appointment of a special rapporteur to outline potential next steps — were “simply insufficient.”

At Atlanta’s ‘Cop City,’ when does protest become terrorism?

Within hours of arriving in the South River Forest last Sunday, Annie, a tall, dreadlocked woman from “another city” with multiple facial studs, hunkered down. Swarms of police were entering the forest, grabbing people from the shadows and cuffing them.

Moments before, she says, a friend she traveled with had gone off “to take a walk through the forest.” Prosecutors say he was on a mission of domestic terror. He was arrested along with 22 other activists that day and is now being held without bond and facing state charges that include domestic terrorism.

Terry Glavin: Trudeau’s relationship with China far uglier than any links Trump had with Russia

Just the other day, while I was talking to some Americans about the foreign-interference uproars that have caused such convulsions up here lately, I tried to explain what was going on with a comparison to the Kremlin’s gambits in cyber-sabotage and dirty tricks on Donald Trump’s behalf during the 2016 presidential election campaign.

Read it all.

Did Trudeau ignore China’s meddling?

Prince Charming has upset Canada’s deep state

Justin Trudeau has had his share of scandals. However, the latest one to hit Canada’s leader has all the makings of a career-killer. Leaks from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) allege that Trudeau ignored its warnings of foreign interference during the 2019 election and, in effect, turned a blind eye to efforts by the Chinese consulate to help elect Liberal Party candidate Han Dong as MP. There were reportedly a total of 11 Beijing-funded candidates: nine Liberals and two Conservatives, though the identities of the others are not yet known.
