The Sterility Epidemic … And its causes.

Although Mark Steyn writes knowledgeably about a great many topics, he keeps returning to what he calls the biggest story of our time—the planet’s demographic death spiral.

The decline in population is a global phenomenon, but it’s happening faster in the West and in Japan. For a description of where it all ends, Steyn recommends P.D. James dystopian novel, The Children of Men.

The Russian Twitter Bots Story Is A Study In Media’s ‘Lie, Set The Narrative, Then Quietly Backtrack’ Playbook

The Washington Post admitted Monday that “Russian trolls on Twitter had little influence on 2016 voters” — years after the Post and other corporate media water-carriers pushed the false story that former President Donald Trump’s election was illegitimate, due in part to Russian interference via bots on Twitter targeting U.S. social media users. The admission cites a New York University study that found “there was no relationship between exposure to the Russian foreign influence campaign and changes in attitudes, polarization, or voting behavior.”

Media treatment of the non-story followed a predictable, three-step process that’s become the propaganda press’s MO: Spread a false claim, control the narrative while crushing dissent with bogus “fact checks,” and then admit the truth only after the news cycle has achieved its intended purpose.

Covid lab leak theory: What’s really going on?

WHERE did the lab leak theory come from? Who first promoted the idea and why? The answer to this question is surprising, and may be the key to unlocking the mystery of the origin of Covid-19.

The first known mention of the idea that the coronavirus might have originated in a Chinese lab appeared on January 9 2020 in a report by Radio Free Asia (RFA). This was only days after the virus had first entered public consciousness. At the time no deaths had been reported and few people were worrying about the virus – including, it seems, the Chinese, who were claiming it wasn’t even clear whether it was spreading between humans.

Environmentalism will be the ruin of Germany

The green elites are sabotaging Europe’s most powerful economy.

Good news at last? Europe has managed to replenish its gas reserves. In the first week of the new year, all over Europe, daily gas-storage rates were higher than they were at the same time in 2022. In Austria, for example, the gas-storage rate was over 80 per cent, compared with 33 per cent in 2022. In Germany, it was even higher: 91 per cent compared with 54 per cent last year. This comes as a relief. Especially given that just a few months ago, there was a very real possibility of crippling gas shortages.

‘My hands were boiled and my fingernails were pulled out by the Russians. I was a living corpse’

Ukrainians held prisoner in Kherson had their hands submerged in boiling water, their fingernails pulled out and their genitals electrocuted, according to new accounts of systematic torture during the Russian occupation.

Yuriy Belousov, Kyiv’s top war crimes prosecutor, said of the more than 50,000 reports of war crimes registered with the Ukrainian authorities, some 7,700 had come from the Kherson and the surrounding region.

Investigators have discovered 10 sites in the area around the southern city used by Russia to unlawfully detain and torture Ukrainians.

Sabrina Maddeaux: Stop punishing victims of crime who exercise self-defence

Over the past few years, Canadian police have had some trouble telling victims of crime and criminals apart. This is because self-defence is treated less like a right in this country and more like a wishy-washy theory subject to the emotional, moral and even political leanings of law enforcement.

Remember what the idiot said?

“You can’t use a gun for self-protection in Canada. It’s not a right that you have,” says Trudeau.

Criminals could potentially harm you and your family with ILLEGAL guns, but YOU, law-abiding citizen, do not have the right to defend yourself with a LEGAL gun. pic.twitter.com/Lt4oS24TiU

2022 Annual Report on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) Released

The remaining 171 reports “uncharacterized and unattributed UAP reports” defy easy explanation, the report said: “Some of these uncharacterized UAP appear to have demonstrated unusual flight characteristics or performance capabilities, and require further analysis.”

A newly released government UAP report details the latest findings in the Defense Department’s ongoing investigations into aerial incursions within military airspace, and other incidents involving objects the DOD now calls “unidentified anomalous phenomena.”

Although several weeks late on arrival, the report presents the latest findings on the efforts of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), which the document characterizes as “the DoD focal point for UAP.”

Ground search at Sask. First Nation gets 2,000 ‘hits,’ more work required to determine which are graves

Star Blanket Cree Nation has announced that ground penetrating radar searches at the site of the former Lebret Indian Industrial School found more than 2,000 “hits” over the past year.

“This information is going to hit home. I am not going to lie,” said Sheldon Poitras, the project lead on the search.

Poitras said not every hit means there is an unmarked grave, as some could be anomalies like rocks or tree roots.

Hunter Biden charges: What punishments could the president’s son face?

Hunter Biden is being scrutinized by a federal prosecutor for possible tax fraud and for allegedly lying on a federal form when purchasing a firearm — crimes that could result in President Joe Biden’s son being fined or even landing in prison.

Republicans have long contended Hunter Biden’s lucrative business dealings in Ukraine and China indicate he may have committed crimes related to foreign lobbying or money laundering, although recent reports have indicated U.S. Attorney David Weiss, a Trump-appointed holdover and the Delaware prosecutor overseeing the case, may have narrowed his focus to Hunter Biden’s potentially committing tax fraud in 2016 and 2017 and lying on a federal gun form when purchasing a handgun in 2018.

Will Putin’s latest general escalate the war in Ukraine?

So, one granite-faced general has been replaced by another. The announcement that, after just three months in post, General Sergei Surovikin is being succeeded as overall commander of Russia’s war in Ukraine by Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov may sound like appointing a new captain for a hull-breached Titanic. But it is significant in what it says, not just about the war, but Putin’s relationship with his generals.

George Soros Spewed Nearly $21 Billion into Global Politics Since 2000: Report

The Capital Research Center (CRC) reported Jan. 4 that new filings reveal that Soros’ “nonprofit empire has poured out nearly $21 billion since 2000, making him perhaps the biggest ATM for leftist political causes in the world.”
