Another year, and another ‘Conference of the Parties’ (COP) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) will convene. The 29th COP is meeting in Baku, Azerbaijan. It started yesterday and will last for 11 days.
My view of the previous year’s UN climate jamboree, attended by a record-breaking 86,000 delegates, was realistically downbeat (some would say cynical)…

Out of all of Donald Trump’s supporters, Derrick Evans has a particular reason to be happy with November’s election results – he hopes the president-elect will give him a pardon for participating in the 6 January riot at the US Capitol.
“A pardon will be life changing,” said Evans, who was a member of the West Virginia legislature when he and at least 2,000 others stormed the Capitol in 2021. It was part of an effort to overturn the results of the US election, inspired by the false belief that it was Trump, not President Joe Biden, who had won.
The 13 months since October 7 2023 have had a clarifying effect. No more hiding in the murk. Many people with pre-existing moral weakness or susceptibility to disinformation about Israel have since Hamas’s butcherous invasion leaned deeply and proudly into a variety of anti-Jewish positions. Ivy League college campuses, in particular, have shown their true colours. Too many have pioneered a new model of student life as a cesspit of open support for Palestinian jihadist groups.
And they say we’re the crazy ones.

There’s a new czar in town.
President-elect Donald Trump’s new “border czar” Tom Homan has a message for New York City and other sanctuary jurisdictions: Nothing will stop us from deporting migrant criminals.
“If we can’t get assistance from New York City, we may have to double the number of agents we send to New York City,” he said on Fox & Friends on Monday. “Because we’re going to do the job with you or without you.”

Contrary to widely expressed fears in Canada, there is plenty of room for the Canadian government of either major party to work cooperatively with the new American administration on most fronts. A couple of months ago, I had occasion to ask then-candidate Donald Trump whether Canada had anything to fear if he were elected. He said: “Your trade negotiators are better than ours, but all I’m asking is fair trade which is not a big problem with Canada.” He added that he knows the country well, has done lots of business here, and has nothing but liking and goodwill for Canada.
They’re like Zombies!

Donald Trump reportedly described Justin Trudeau as a “behind-your-back guy,” after the two fell out over tariffs during the president-elect’s first term in office.
As Trudeau continues to languish in domestic opinion polls, he may be tempted to reprise his role as the “behind your back guy” by attempting to appease the president on trade and security to his face, while sub rosa, using him as a warning about what Canadians can expect if they elect the Conservatives.
If anybody thought that Trump was just running for president to avoid prosecution (yes, a lot of Democrats did believe that!), his initial moves as president-elect should dispel that notion and put them on notice that he intends to win bigly.

America’s Catholic bishops are giving President-elect Donald Trump a mixed reception ahead of his second term. Following Trump’s overwhelming victory in Tuesday’s election, Archbishop Timonthy Broglio, head of the Military Archdiocese and president of the U.S. Catholic Bishops’ Conference (USCCB), issued a statement congratulating the 45th and 47th President on his victory.
All the president’s men: Donald Trump’s support from the manosphere is clear, even if it’s confounding
What do a mixed martial arts promoter, social-media stars, an attempted assassin, and a golfing legend’s genitalia have in common?
They all played some role in securing Donald Trump’s re-election.
Trump’s ability to win over men — particularly younger white and Latino men — was key to his successful campaign.
With the votes now counted, the influence of the manosphere — and Trump’s ability to appeal to traditional concepts of masculinity — in sending Trump back to Washington is coming clear, even if it is confounding.

Not since a “hot mic” caught David Cameron discussing Queen Elizabeth’s verdict on Scottish independence has there been so much backpedalling by high-profile politicians.
In the wake of Donald Trump’s victory in the US election this week, a host of Left-wingers and other leaders who castigated him in the past – probably assuming he was more likely to go to jail than return to the White House – have been rushing out statements, congratulating the Republican on his sensational win and saying how much they cannot wait to work with him.
OTTAWA—Don’t let anyone tell you the re-election of Donald Trump is not a jolt to Canada’s political landscape. Or that we’ve been there, done that.
The fallout is about to overwhelm the Canadian government’s agenda for the next four years.
More random TDS ….Thing is TDS is really the same response by the Liberal-Left to any politician they declare to be right of Pol Pot maybe just a bit more whiny.

Donald Trump’s second presidency could have a “seismic” effect when it comes to UFO disclosure – potentially revealing that the US government really has had contact with one or more extraterrestrial civilisations.
That’s according to Nick Pope who, for many years, was in charge of analysing UFO reports for the UK’s Ministry of Defence. Maverick billionaire Trump has seized an overwhelming victory in the 2024 US elections.

President Elect Donald Trump detailed ten point plan to dismantle the Deep State, setting the social media world alight and reminding the MAGA world why he was elected.
Trump promised to “clean out” those who have gone “rogue” who are working “subversively” to damage America.
President Trump released his plan to DISMANTLE the Deep State. Now that he's President-elect, this is the most important three minutes of video on the internet right now.
