Kyle Rittenhouse vows to ‘prove my innocence again’ after man he shot in the arm during 2020 Kenosha riots sues him for ’emotional distress and humiliation’ despite testifying that he pointed his firearm first

Kyle Rittenhouse has vowed to ‘prove my innocence again’ after the man he shot in 2020 sued him for ’emotional distress and humiliation’.

Gaige Grosskreutz, who testified that he had pointed a pistol at Rittenhouse and was then shot during the 2020 Kenosha riots, is suing the 20-year-old for ‘damages for emotional distress, humiliation, loss of enjoyment of life, and other pain and suffering on all claims.’

Grosskreutz ‘must live with the physical and emotional wounds inflicted by Defendant Rittenhouse and the Defendants who deputized and enabled him,’ the lawsuit says.

Ottawa’s ‘Sustainable Jobs’ Plan Pilloried as Imposing Top-Down Planning, Stifling Free Market

In efforts to reach net zero by 2050, Ottawa’s strategy to transform the workforce toward “sustainable jobs”—”green” jobs in a low-carbon economy—sparked extensive criticism from analysts due to its top-down approach and departure from traditional market-based economics.

On Feb. 17—the Friday before a long weekend and overshadowed by the verdict on the government’s use of the Emergencies Act—the feds released its interim Sustainable Jobs Plan for 2023 to 2025.

The government deems a job to be sustainable, if it is “compatible with Canada’s path to a net-zero emissions and climate resilient future.”

European Member of Parliament Supports Canadian Catholic Student in Gender Belief Fight

MEP Christine Anderson has expressed her support for a 16-year-old Canadian who has been barred from attending his Catholic high school because he says he won’t stop expressing his belief that God made only two, immutable genders.

“Josh Alexander is only 16 [years] … old and already he’s got it figured out: Freedom, democracy and the rule of law need defending,” Anderson said on Twitter Feb. 21. She said he is “a very impressive young man who’s earned my respect and support.”

NYC Names Street After “Adolf Hitler of the Black Man”

There’s no room in NYC for Teddy Roosevelt, for plenty for the racist leader of the Nation of Islam.

Nation of Islam leader Elijah Muhammad headed a racist movement that believed white people were subhuman and doomed to be exterminated. His successor as leader of the original theological movement, Louis Farrakhan, is one of the country’s most notorious bigots.

CAIR’s Shoot First, Ask Questions Never Defamation Defense

They called her a bigot and demanded her termination, all based on the account of a 7-year-old.

Now, attorneys argue that the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) merely was engaging in “rhetorical hyperbole used to express” its “deeply-held opinions” about an incident involving a New Jersey elementary school teacher and a Muslim student.

Do the global elites know what they are talking about?

If the architects of the New World Order have proven anything over the years, it is that they are not competent enough to run such a thing.

George Soros can’t even cheat competent people into local office, so what exactly makes the “stateless statesman” qualified to bring in a New World Order?

Take the example of the candidates he backed for high office in Chicago. If Chicago had a balanced budget, and was crime- and corruption-free, I would look at the Soros candidates and say, “Wow, maybe the Davos guys are on to something, maybe world government will work.”

The trouble with ‘white privilege’

Debates about racism have become framed largely through discussions of whiteness and of white privilege

In 1935, while writing his masterpiece Black Reconstruction in America, W.E.B. Du Bois pondered the question of why, in the wake of the Civil War, there had not developed working-class solidarity across racial lines.

“The South, after the war,” he observed, “presented the greatest opportunity for a real national labor movement which the nation ever saw or is likely to see for many decades.” Yet, he lamented, “the labor movement, with but few exceptions, never realized the situation. It never had the intelligence or knowledge, as a whole, to see in black slavery and Reconstruction, the kernel and meaning of the labor movement in the United States.” The principal reason was “the race philosophy” which “came as a new and terrible thing to make labor unity or labor class-consciousness impossible. So long as the Southern white laborers could be induced to prefer poverty to equality with the Negro, just so long was a labor movement in the South made impossible.”

Is the Antisemitism That Is Rampant in Some Parts of the Muslim World Really Based on a Misinterpretation of Islam?

Moderate Muslim Raheel Raza published a heartwarming story in Canada’s National Post Monday, entitled “I’m a Muslim and I love Israel. Here’s why.” In it, she notes that “every moment of my first trip to the Jewish state was an awakening about the misinformation I had been fed.” Raza tells numerous stories about the kindness shown to her by Jews and Israelis, and in this torn and weary world, that is heartwarming indeed.

Heroic US politicians lead the assault on climate stupidity and Covid corruption

WHILE we might despair at the hopelessness of our politicians (with the honourable exceptions of those two principled and courageous MPs Sir Chrstopher Chope and Andrew Bridgen) it is encouraging to see that the fight against reckless stupidity and corruption is still being energetically prosecuted on the other side of the Atlantic.

I have two videos that are an example to their lacklustre counterparts in our Houses of Parliament.

‘Absolute victory over Russia isn’t possible’

Few people better understand the West’s fraught relationship with Russia than Fiona Hill. Born in Bishop Auckland, she went on to study History and Russian at St Andrews before a scholarship at Harvard took her to America. From there, Hill rose rapidly through the ranks to become one of the world’s foremost experts on Putin’s Russia, brought into the administrations of George W. Bush, Barack Obama and, finally, Donald Trump.

Fiddling while Ohio burns

The Democratic elites aren’t even pretending to care about the East Palestine disaster.

I’m calling it. We have finally hit rock bottom. Aided and abetted by the craven corporate media, the American liberal-left establishment has pushed the boundaries of ineptitude to the point of parody. And now Donald Trump is poised to steal the left’s lunch, eat it and let it swirl around in the toilet – along with the liberal elite’s political credibility.

Is Pierre Poilievre taking a page out of Donald Trump’s playbook? Justin Trudeau seems to think so

The “Canada is broken” rhetoric from the Conservatives in Canada is out of Donald Trump’s failed political playbook, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Tuesday evening.

“There’s an ease out there in political circles” with saying “oh, everything’s broken. It’s all broken. It’s we have to change and start over,” he said at a gathering of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters in Vaughan.

Bad news for Justin and his media lackeys: Canada is broken and playing the Trump card is pathetic.
