FBI: Trust Us, We Swear We Got It Right This Time!

Five summers ago in August 2017, FBI counterintelligence agents were still working the last of four ill-gotten FISA spy warrants used to investigate former Trump campaign advisor Carter Page. Then, earlier this month, the FBI counterintelligence team executed a search warrant on the Mar-a-Lago home of former President Trump. The latest of many terrific reports from Paul Sperry of RealClearInvestigations raises the possibility that many of the same agents were involved in both investigations.

Despite illegally using of one of the most intrusive surveillance weapons in their toolbox for a year, the Bureau discovered no wrongdoing by Page, who held onto his presumption of innocence throughout the ordeal. It’s now fair to say the FBI and the media managed the clumsy and legally needless trick of proving Page innocent after stomping on his civil liberties, putting his life under a microscope, and yet still finding nothing.

Trudeau Hiring “Climate Police” As Canada Moves To Neo-Dictatorship

According to a Federal government website, Environment and Climate Change Canada “informs Canadians about protecting and conserving our natural heritage, and ensuring a clean, safe and sustainable environment for present and future generations.”

Sounds innocuous enough. Too bad it isn’t. In what appears to be a paean to George Orwell’s “1984,” the federal Ministry of Environment & Climate Change Canada (ECCC) is building a new facility in Winnipeg that will “be home to a firearms armoury, interrogation rooms, biological labs, media relations offices, “controlled quiet rooms,” and intelligence facilities.”

Admitting Defeat: The Crown Is Dropping Charges Against Freedom Convoy Supporters

According to The Democracy Fund (TDF), a supporter of the Freedom Convoy 2022, who they had their legal team representing in court, has had the charges against them stayed by the Crown prosecution.

The unnamed client was facing up to 45 days in prison and had been charged with mischief, disobeying a court order, and obstructing a police officer, which is arguable an equal set of charges to what convoy spokeswoman Tamara Lich has put against her.

From the vague details that TDF has given about this case, it sounds like the organization’s lawyer, Mr. Adam Blake-Gallipeau, representing this particular client had taken a strategy of aggressively pushing the Crown to provide details to back up its charges, which evidentially it could not.

It sounds like TDF is taking the position that the onus is not on them to scramble around citing the Charter to defend their client’s attendance at the Freedom Convoy protest when the Crown cannot provided evidence a crime was even committed.

False Flag Incoming? FBI Warns Of “Dirty Bomb” and “Civil War”

The Federal Bureau of Investigation says that the threat of a civil war is increasing. A bulletin from the Department of Homeland Security and FBI was sent to law enforcement agencies warning of increased threats following the FBI’s execution of the search warrant at former President Trump’s Florida estate.

The DHS and FBI also said that a threat involved a “dirty bomb” that would be placed in front of FBI headquarters.

Do you want free speech to thrive? Then it has to be regulated, now more than ever

Freedom of speech is one of the most slippery concepts in political philosophy. John Stuart Mill pronounced it absolute but qualified it, as he did all liberties, where it causes “harm” to others. On that tenuous footing has grown an edifice of laws on slander, libel, incitement and, more recently, the causing of offence.

Bending The First Amendment Past Breaking

Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

the first amendment is a simple, powerful thing. and the message is clear: “congress shall make no law.”

what is unfortunate in this structure is how the government has changed in a manner the framers did not anticipate. we have becomes a government not with a weak executive branch facing mostly outward but one with an exceedingly powerful one facing mostly in. we are, in our domestic lives, affected FAR less by congress than by the ever expanding alphabet soup of agencies that have grown like bureaucratic slime mold to cover nearly every aspect of every action and activity.

̷C̷o̷n̷t̷r̷o̷v̷e̷r̷s̷i̷a̷l̷ ̷g̷r̷o̷u̷p̷ People the CBC were told to attack by the LPC create ‘private security force’ to guard former church

A controversial organization operating out of a historic Ottawa church has set up what it calls a “private security force,” saying it was necessary because police weren’t responding to its concerns quickly enough.

The United People of Canada (TUPC) said it has identified people it claims have committed crimes targeting the group, and is prepared to “ensure the rule of law is upheld within our lawful authority,” according to William Komer, one of its directors.

However, Komer wouldn’t share details about whether the force will be made up of outside contractors or the group’s supporters.

How Far Will They Go Before We ALL Say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

Last night a line was crossed, and everything changed. The home of the former president of the United States and the most likely Republican candidate to run for the presidency in 2024 was raided by the FBI.

How much further will this go before Americans finally realize that this is not just about Donald Trump, it is about THEM.

Canada’s Federal Court needs information the government claims is secret to properly review whether the first use of the Emergencies Act — to end the so-called “Freedom Convoy” protests this winter — violated constitutional rights, civil liberties groups say.

Jan. 6 ‘prison’ exhibit at CPAC causes stir

An exhibit dedicated to those who have faced criminal prosecution stemming from the January 6 Capitol riots created a stir at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) this weekend in Texas.

The set inside the Hilton Anatole in Dallas featured a mock prison cell complete with a live action model prisoner who sat barefoot in an orange jumpsuit crying.

At one point, headsets were distributed to viewers which played harrowing courtroom testimony from Jan 6 defendants.

Ted Cruz Calls Out FBI for Designating Patriotic Symbols as Indicators of Violent Extremism

Senator Ted Cruz had a chance to question FBI Director Christopher Wray on Thursday and asked him why the bureau is classifying some classic symbols of American patriotism as indicators of militias and violent extremism.

Millions of Americans already view the FBI with an air of suspicion. The fact that they have designated these symbols in this way will only make matters worse.

The Liberal Media and the Criminalization of American Politics

The headline in The Atlantic read this way: “The DOJ Must Prosecute Trump.”

The authors, Establishment lawyers one and all, want Trump criminally prosecuted because of the “evidence” presented by the nakedly partisan, Democrat-run January 6 Committee.

This is the popular theme in today’s media, a guessing game of will-he-or-will-he-not be prosecuted.

Covid An Excuse For Justin Trudeau To “Punish Ideological Enemies”

“The Trudeau government has claimed to follow the science on Covid, but that science is strangely different than it is everywhere else.”

“Policies are based on spite, divisiveness, and pure politics. Covid now serves as an excuse to punish the government’s ideological enemies.”
