Hail Mary By Justin’s Journos – Let’s run with that “Foreign ‘adversaries’ may have leveraged ‘freedom movement’ to ‘advance agendas’ angle … again

Unnamed foreign “adversaries” may have leveraged the Canadian “freedom movement” protests to advance their own interests, a newly-disclosed intelligence report suggest.

According to previously secret assessments by the Ontario Provincial Police’s (OPP) intelligence branch, the “available information” on Feb. 19 suggested that foreign actors may have pushed support for the movement, which fueled the convoy blockades in Ottawa and across the country, “to protect or enhance their own strategic economic and political interests.”

Again? First they did then they didn’t, now they did! Anything for Justin!

Insiders: Ottawa Police have a problem… How to stage Constable Kristina Neilson’s public apology sessions.

What if citizens at the ‘Restorative Justice’ meetings publicly state their support for Constable Neilson?

“Insiders say the Ottawa Police will tightly control the ‘Restorative Justice’ apology sessions included in the proposed sentence for Constable Kristina Neilson – but there is an internal debate as to whether the sessions should be invitation-only or open to the public.”

Federal government would not commit to meeting with protesters to de-escalate convoy, inquiry hears

Leaders from the Freedom Convoy would not have been able to meet with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau nor Governor General Mary Simon, but might have been able to secure a meeting with high-ranking officials in the federal government in exchange for an end to the occupation.

The proposal for a meeting was the subject of many discussions and emails between Feb. 10 to 13 between the Deputy Minister of Public Safety Canada, Rob Stewart, Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officials, according to evidence presented to the Public Order Emergency Commission (POEC) on Tuesday.

LA’s enterprising homeless hook up washing machines to street power lines

Images and video show homeless in Los Angeles syphoning water and power in camps sprouting throughout the city’s streets – with some of the brazen encampments even boasting working washing machines.

Homelessness is a dominant issue in the state’s upcoming mayoral election, with a large field of candidates promising to do more on an issue that has placed Los Angeles in an unwelcome national spotlight.

Sagging tents, rusting RVs, and makeshift structures have become commonplace along Hollywood Boulevard to Venice Beach – and even in the shadow of City Hall.

Ottawa police thought allowing protest trucks on Wellington Street would protect rest of the city

The incident commander in charge of policing the protests in Ottawa last winter allowed protesters to park in front of Parliament Hill because he thought that would protect the rest of the city from disruptions, documents tabled with the Emergencies Act inquiry this morning say.

While Ottawa Police Insp. Russell Lucas told the Public Order Emergency Commission he was concerned about a January 6-type insurrectionist attack happening in Ottawa, he told the commission he did not believe allowing vehicles to park in front of Parliament Hill posed a risk because the House of Commons was not sitting that week and he felt he had enough officers to respond if protesters attempted to storm the Hill.

‘Quite troubled’: MPs demand explanation from OPP over ‘wildly different’ statements on Freedom Convoy

OTTAWA — MPs unanimously voted to demand answers from the Ontario Provincial Police on its “wildly different” testimony about the security threat posed by the Freedom Convoy protests.

In a rare show of parliamentary unity, members of all parties on the Commons public safety and national security committee approved a motion requiring an “immediate response” from the OPP regarding an apparent “contradiction” between what its commissioner told the committee in March about the protests and what its head of intelligence said to the Emergencies Act inquiry last week.

Ukraine arms manufacturer charged with treason over bugged phone calls

Alleged recordings of the head of a major Ukrainian aircraft manufacturer accused of aiding the Russian military – saying he “completely understands” why a Russian missile was fired at his factory – have been released by Kyiv’s security services after his arrest at the weekend.

Vyacheslav Boguslaev, the president of Motor Sich, has been charged with treason after a raid at the weekend on his home in the southern Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia.

Muslim Preacher Wants to Visit Attacker in Jail, San Diego District Attorney Says ‘What Attack?’

Uthman Ibn Farooq, the San Diego Muslim preacher who told the world he was stabbed by an “Islamophobic” Christian in March 2022, has responded to an FWI story indicating that the stabbing never took place.

In a YouTube video posted earlier today (Oct. 20), Uthman claimed to debunk FWI’s reporting, but provided no details about the identity of the attacker. He did state however, that his unnamed attacker had been arrested on hate crime charges, pleaded guilty to lesser charges, and is now serving time in jail and could be transferred to a prison for the rest of his sentence. Uthman said he has forgiven his attacker and hopes to visit him in jail so he can invite him into the fold of Islam.

‘A medical atrocity’: Pediatric surgeon compares ‘gender transitions’ to Nazi experiments

A pro-life pediatric surgeon and medical school professor recently spoke out against the ongoing trend of addressing gender dysphoria with hormonal and surgical interventions, calling the practices “a medical atrocity” and malpractice. 

Dr. Michael Egnor, a professor of neurosurgery and pediatrics at the Stony Brook University’s medical school in New York, spoke with The Federalist editor Emily Jashinky during a podcast interview on Friday about the issue of so-called “gender transitions” in modern medicine.

Philip Cross: The moral argument for fossil fuels

The latest book from Alex Epstein, American libertarian author and founder of the Center for Industrial Progress, elaborates the unapologetic arguments for fossil fuel consumption that he first made in The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels. In his latest offering, Fossil Future: Why Global Human Flourishing Requires More Oil, Coal, and Natural Gas — Not Less, he frames the debate about fossil fuels, prosperity, and climate change (which he pointedly doesn’t deny) from the point of view of a philosopher, not the scientists and economists who dominate the debate.

Russian court rejects Brittney Griner’s appeal of 9-year sentence

A Russian court on Tuesday rejected Brittney Griner’s appeal after the jailed WNBA star begged for forgiveness for her “mistake” — upholding her nine-year sentence on drug charges.

Griner and her lawyers had asked for acquittal or at least a more lenient sentence, which they said was disproportionate to the offense and at odds with Russian judicial practice.

The Real Reason Woman Who Killed Firefighter Went Uncharged

I have to wonder how George Zimmerman felt upon reading about the shooting death of Kansas City firefighter Anthony Santi, 41.

Ten years ago, after getting his head pounded into the concrete for a minute or more, Zimmerman famously shot and killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin. Although Martin attacked the much smaller Zimmerman without provocation, and eyewitness evidence supported Zimmerman’s claims of self-defense, the media and the woke mobs frightened state prosecutors into charging Zimmerman with second-degree murder and ruining his life.

Uproar Continues in France Over Muslim Charged with Torture, Rape, Murder of 12-Year-old French Girl

In France there is a continuing uproar over the torture, rape, and murder of 12-year-old Lola Daviet by an Algerian woman. “The suspect had boasted about selling body parts,” one investigator told Le Parisien. “Evidence suggests that the girl was taken into the basement of the flat, where she was tortured, and raped, before being strangled and having her throat cut.” The woman had then stuffed her body in a suitcase and dragged it to the street.
