France: ‘Antifa’ rioters attack cops at march against ‘state violence’

Black-clad ‘Antifa’ rioters in France attacked police officers with fists, projectiles and metal barriers, at a Paris protest they claimed was “against state violence and the extreme right.”

Wearing black and concealing their faces with masks and neckerchiefs, crowds of left-wing ‘Antifa’ protesters turned out in Paris, France, on Saturday, in what they said was a rally “against state violence and the extreme right.”

Rough translation – “These thugs in black called ” #Antifas ” came to the #Manifs27Novembre of #Paris to break the #Policier !
I can’t stand to see my colleagues serving as a punching bag anymore!
The decadence of Flag of France is to see these scrapings rot our democracy!
Their place is in prison!”

Ces voyous en noir appelés "#Antifas" sont venus à la #Manifs27Novembre de #Paris pour casser du #Policier!
Je ne supporte plus de voir mes collègues servir de punching-ball!
La décadence de la 🇫🇷, c'est de voir ces raclures pourrir notre démocratie!
Leur place est en prison! pic.twitter.com/k0brHSwf9O

‘More money than God:’ Chinese titan lavished Hunter Biden with 3-carat gem, offer of $30 million

James Gilliar, a wiry, 56-year-old British ex-SAS officer, got to know Ye Jianming, the 40-year-old chairman of CEFC, when they were both working in the Czech Republic.

Ye’s task at was to spend $1.5 billion as quickly as possible to ensure the Czech Republic would become China’s “Gateway to the European Union,” a priority of President Xi.

As critics warn of genetic ‘surveillance’, RCMP explores use of DNA matching in criminal probes

For years, he was only known as Septic Tank Sam — a macabre nickname the RCMP pinned on a disfigured body pulled from a septic tank in rural Alberta in the late 1970s.

But this past summer saw a breakthrough: Septic Tank Sam got his name back.

Through a Texas-based DNA lab that uses genetic genealogy, the RCMP in Alberta was able to identify the deceased as Gordie Sanderson, who had been reported missing decades earlier.

Using DNA extracted from his bones, Othram Inc. was able to build a genetic profile by uploading his information to public genetic databases.

Over 40 per cent of military sexual misconduct class action claims are from men: Eyre

More than 40 per cent of the nearly 19,000 claims submitted by survivors and victims of military sexual misconduct are from men, says Gen. Wayne Eyre.

In an interview with The West Block’s Mercedes Stephenson, Eyre said the scope of the claims submitted through that process demonstrate the fact that the problem is one that everyone in the Canadian Forces must work to address — even though there are no easy answers.

Sounds like they’ve exceeded their diversity targets in certain categories.

GOLDSTEIN; This just in, Canada — travel bans are not racist

With Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his cabinet ministers now banning flights from seven African countries in a bid to control the spread of the Omicron variant of COVID-19, will they finally admit those who called for banning flights from China at the start of the pandemic were right and they were wrong?

The Profound Junk Science of Climate

Climate change prophecy hangs its hat on computer climate models. The models have gigantic problems. According to Kevin Trenberth, once in charge of modeling at the National Center for Atmospheric research, [none of the] “models correspond even remotely to the current observed climate” [of the Earth]. The models can’t properly model the Earth’s climate, but we are supposed to believe that if carbon dioxide has a certain effect in the imaginary Earths of the many models it will have the same effect on the real earth.

Salvation Army Peddles Critical Race Theory, Urges Members to Confront Their Racism

The Salvation Army, the Christian charity famous for its festive collection boxes and volunteers around the holiday season, has adopted the teachings of critical race theory, urging members to actively confront their faith’s historic racism.

In a guidebook titled “Let’s Talk About Racism,” the organization calls Christians to reflect on and rectify their contributions to the social inequities and prejudicial systems that have harmed minorities. Citing its “International Position Statement on Racism,” the organization writes that it “acknowledges with regret, that Salvationists have sometimes shared in the sins of racism and conformed to economic, organisational and social pressures that perpetuate racism.”

Guaranteed Murder – From Waukesha to New York, lax bail assures homicides.

In recent years, law enforcement across the United States has been warning radical district attorneys and legislators that their bail “reforms” would get people killed. Progressive Milwaukee district attorney John Chisholm has spearheaded efforts to eliminate or substantially reduce bail since he was elected in 2007, even though he agreed with law enforcement that such reforms would result in deaths. “Is there going to be an individual I divert, or I put into treatment program, who’s going to go out and kill somebody? You bet,” Chisholm bluntly stated. “Guaranteed. It’s guaranteed to happen. It does not invalidate the overall approach.”

Is Francis a Trustworthy Pope?

New poll among American Catholics shows high degree of trust in Pope Francis.

Recent polls show that a majority of Americans seem to have lost faith in President Joe Biden. His approval ratings have dropped and many believe he is taking the country in the wrong direction. Many conservatives believe that he is destroying America. And some believe that he is doing so deliberately.

Ironically, the world’s other best-known progressive Catholic—Pope Francis—is prospering in the polls. A recent poll of Catholics by The Pillar, a Catholic news organization, found that American Catholics put more trust in the Pope than in their local bishop or in American bishops taken as a group.

‘Trans goons, bedwetters and snowflakes’: New book destroys identity politics

Controversial author Julie Burchill dispenses with the niceties in ‘Welcome to the Woke Trials’, her new book that takes on the activists pushing the gender debate and Generation Bedwetter icons like Sam Smith and Meghan Markle.

There’s an undeniable groundswell building against the crazed identity-obsessed woke mob, but if there’s to be any significant pushback, then there will need to be more people prepared to surge over the trenches like British journalist and social provocateur Julie Burchill.

The shameful silence on the Waukesha massacre

Identity politics has corroded the humanity of the elites.

Is silence still violence? If it is, then a whole lot of people, from the Hollywood set to the virtue-signalling left, are guilty of some serious violence right now. Their silence on the Waukesha massacre, on the slaughter of six innocents by a man wielding his SUV as a deadly weapon, is deafening. More than that, it is sinister. Dancing grannies, an eight-year-old boy, people singing and cheering at a Christmas parade, all mown down. Six killed, 62 injured, in what police are treating as a suspected act of intentional homicide. That is, mass murder. And yet there’s been nothing from Hollywood stars who normally love to hold forth on terrible acts of violence. Influencers seem to have been struck dumb. There are no blacked-out squares on Instagram. The big woke corporations aren’t pumping out pained, concerned press releases. It’s just tumbleweed, everywhere.

Chappelle Torches Students To Their Face At His High School Alma Mater After They Get Mouthy With Him

Comedian Dave Chappelle reportedly mocked several students at his high school alma mater while he performed there on Tuesday after the students got mouthy with him in front of the crowd.

Chappelle performed in front of nearly 600 students during a surprise visit to D.C.’s Duke Ellington School of the Arts, which came after the school reportedly canceled a fundraiser involving Chappelle after some leftists complained about jokes that he made about transgender people during his “The Closer” special on Netflix.

The liberal case for gun ownership

Liberty needs defending from the threat of tyranny

At the beginning of the pandemic, I was out hunting for supplies, running through scenarios and planning for contingencies. I found myself at a local gun shop, where a line of edgy patrons stretched out the door and down the block. It’s not the kind of place my high school self would have imagined my middle-aged self would frequent. I am, after all, an American liberal, and American liberals, as a rule, believe that our founders (fresh from a war they won with muzzle-loaded weapons) left us in a terrible mess with respect to modern guns.

COVID Zero Is the Technocracy’s Test Run

Australia embraces the science of control.

At the beginning of this September, the Atlantic — a mouthpiece of the progressive professional managerial class if there ever was one — ran an unexpected article criticizing Australia for its COVID-19 policies. The piece, titled “Australia Traded Away Too Much Liberty,” ponders whether the country’s eliminationist approach toward the virus has rendered it undeserving of the title of liberal democracy.
