Sarah Rogers, the under-secretary for public diplomacy and public affairs at the State Department, said freedom.gov had received significant interest from British users.

FLANAGAN: The residential schools ‘graves’ narrative lives on — despite zero verified finds

FLANAGAN: The residential schools ‘graves’ narrative lives on — despite zero verified finds

May 27 of this year will be the fifth anniversary of the shocking announcement that the unmarked graves of 215 missing children had been found on the grounds of the former Kamloops Indian Residential School. But the announcement turned out to be a nothing-burger. On the third anniversary, the band’s leadership admitted that ground penetrating radar (GPR) had found only “soil anomalies” that were “potential” graves.

‘Here is your holocaust. We burned them like a barbecue’

‘Here is your holocaust. We burned them like a barbecue’

Distinguishable by his long hair and extreme brutality, RSF commander Abu Lulu became the public face of the October 2025 massacre in al-Fashir, Sudan, after broadcasting numerous videos of himself slaughtering unarmed civilians.

In one video, the commander stands in front of a cowering group of men, aiming his gun at them imposingly.

One by one, the paramilitary fighter proceeds to shoot the group of nine at point-blank range, leaving their bodies in a heap on the ground as soldiers cheer and chant his name.

Manitoba’s Record Drug Bust Reveals a Snow Cartel Network Built to Outlast A Former Olympian — and Canada’s Failure to Stop It

OTTAWA — Winnipeg police announced Wednesday what they called the largest drug bust in Manitoba history: 33 people arrested, 174 criminal charges, more than 525 kilograms of cocaine, methamphetamine, and fentanyl seized, $825,000 in cash recovered, and a two-year investigation — Project Puma — that required 14 partner agencies spanning four provinces. The numbers are staggering. They are also, by the assessment of the lead investigator himself, incomplete.

The Democrat Party Correctly Rejects Its Useless 2024 Post-Mortem

The Democrat Party Correctly Rejects Its Useless 2024 Post-Mortem

I agree with the Democrat Party.

After they lost the presidential election in 2024, Democrats commissioned an after-action report that was supposed to explain where they had gone wrong. This week, DNC Chair Ken Martin rejected the report, explaining his decision online: “I am not proud of this product; it does not meet my standards, and it won’t meet your standards. I don’t endorse what’s in this report, or what’s left out of it. I could not in good faith put the DNC’s stamp of approval on it.” He’s not wrong.

Big Tech’s big data-centre problem

Big Tech’s big data-centre problem

In April, the Big Four tech firms – Alphabet, Amazon, Meta and Microsoft – pledged to invest a combined $725 billion in AI infrastructure over the next year. The rosy global future these companies envision is fuelled by a never-ending expansion of data centres. These are massive banks of microchips which require vast energy sources to power them, and large reservoirs of water to cool them.

The Mosque Shooters’ Manifesto

The Mosque Shooters’ Manifesto

The obligatory mass-shooter manifesto has been recovered in the wake of Monday’s San Diego mosque shooting carried out by two teenage losers, and predictably, it is a testament of nihilistic rage directed at just about everybody and everything.

Law enforcement and the media are now in possession of the 75-page document compiled by Cain Clark, 17, and Caleb Vasquez, 18 (or 19, depending on the source), who killed themselves after shooting three Muslim victims dead outside the Islamic Center of San Diego. Investigative journalist Amy Reichart reports that the manifesto revealed the two to be not trans lovers, as many were quick to claim on social media, but straight incels – “involuntary celibates,” a subculture of mostly males bitter about their inability to find relationships with women.

‘Why did you try to kill me?’ the Nigerian Christian asked his neighbour

‘Why did you try to kill me?’ the Nigerian Christian asked his neighbour

TOBIAS Yahaya woke in the middle of an April night in 2023 to hear men breaking into his home in Sokoto, a city in the extreme north west of Nigeria.

Three individuals had scaled a high fence surrounding the compound of the house where he lived with his wife and four children aged between eight and three years and cut through coils of barbed wire. He saw them approaching.
