Those assuming that things will magically become better for Canada if, as expected, the Democrats recapture the House of Representatives in the midterm elections should think again.
The Democrats are protectionists on trade and on many issues, are opposed to Canadian interests.
President Donald Trump’s frustration over the Iran war boiled over at Camp David last week, where he demanded answers from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on why he had apparently been misled on extreme munitions shortages that now threaten to limit military options with Iran, two people familiar with the exchange told The Washington Post.
The encounter took place on the sidelines of his Cabinet meeting at Camp David on Friday where Trump vented at Hegseth that he thought the munitions issue “had been fixed,” according to both people familiar with the conversation, who, like others, spoke on the condition of anonymity due to fear of retaliation.
Today, a Senate committee led by Rand Paul (R-KY) will vote to send a contempt charge to the full Senate over Fauci’s refusal to testify while immunized last week. That could lead to criminal prosecution by a Department of Justice that’s likely enthused by the prospect. Fauci’s diaries on government servers would get even more attention in a high-profile trial, laying out Fauci’s lies during the pandemic as well as his infatuation with celebrity, his own and others’.
That may not be the last reveal into Fauci’s character, either. The Wall Street Journal reported late last night that another Senate committee now has a copy of Fauci’s iPhone, used during his management of the pandemic. What secrets might that hold?
Update: Fauci held in contempt by Senate panel after taking the Fifth 111 times in COVID hearing — could face prosecution
WASHINGTON — A Senate committee voted on Thursday to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt for declining to answer questions about his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as his past testimony to Congress regarding risky, US-funded “gain of function” research
The Senate Homeland Security Committee voted 8-5 along party lines to refer the former director of the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) for potential prosecution after he invoked his Fifth Amendment rights 111 times last week.
The lefty Canadian illegal immigrant who slapped a teenage girl at the Jersey Shore wearing pro-Trump clothing embarrassingly failed to raise half the money requested for her legal fund.
An online fundraiser for Kaitlyn Tracey’s legal expenses in her immigration case only raised $4,857 of its $10,000 goal — a final, humiliating blow as she was ordered to be deported back to her home country on Tuesday.
Canadian provincial politicians are vastly overpaid compared to their U.S. counterparts, but their electors have little to show for it, according to a new report released by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF).
The Subnational Politician Pay Report looks at average salaries for provincial and state politicians across Canada and the United States.
Just a few hours before Abdul El-Sayed narrowly won the Democratic Senate primary in Michigan, he told me that he was going to “beat the shit” out of his Republican opponent, Mike Rogers, in the November general election. His tactic, he explained in a Detroit farmers’ market yesterday, would be to “staple his [Rogers’s] sins to his forehead.” What those sins were, El-Sayed wouldn’t say. He has in the past criticized Rogers as a “corporate shill” who prioritized pharmaceutical and corporate interests over Michiganders while in Congress.
Former White House chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci has hit back at Aaron Rodgers after the quarterback launched a scathing verbal assault on him on-air.
Rodgers, who has long been a vaccine skeptic and was extremely outspoken about the Covid-19 pandemic, didn’t hold back as he eviscerated Fauci in the wake of his decision to continuously plead the fifth amendment in a hostile senate hearing.
Appearing on ESPN on Monday, Rodgers attacked Fauci in a 13-minute monologue, labeling the 85-year-old an ‘absolute criminal’ and an ‘absolute coward’.

"I'm gonna plead the 5th. Like that absolute coward Tony Fauci. Absolute coward. Are you kidding me? What are you scared of Tony? I thought you were science?"

President Trump has responded to Abdul El-Sayed’s projected victory in Michigan’s Democrat Senate primary, blasting the candidate as a “communist loser” and a Jew hater, while insisting his win over establishment Democrat Haley Stevens is “great news” for Republicans.
Not everyone is so optimistic.
After decades of waiting, political debates, and construction delays starting back in June 2018, the Gordie Howe International Bridge officially opened on July 26, 2026. Connecting Michigan’s Interstate 75 directly with Ontario’s Highway 401, this modern engineering marvel was supposed to revolutionize cross-border shipping between the US and Canada. There is just one tiny, hilariously corporate catch: if you drive a semi-truck for Stellantis’ logistics arm, FCA Transport, touching that shiny new asphalt could cost you your job.

In the dark before dawn, Juan Victor Hernández Campo was cheerleading a 5,000-strong crowd in the outskirts of the Cuban provincial capital of Pinar del Rio. “Aquí, quien no salte es yanqui!” he roared. “If you don’t jump, you’re a Yankee!”
Those in front of him, in T-shirts commemorating Fidel and Raúl Castro’s 1953 attack on the Moncada military barracks, roared back and – as much as their age allowed – leapt to their feet.
When Hernández asked them for more, one woman pointed out he would struggle for lift-off himself given the size of his belly. He responded by pulling his T-shirt tight and proudly rotating like a courting turkey. “¡Abajo el bloqueo!” He shouted. “Down with the blockade!” The crowd laughed and waved small Cuban flags.
OTTAWA – U.S. President Donald Trump’s envoy for fighting antisemitism is urging Canada to revoke visas and expand terrorism listings to curb the rise of anti-Jewish hatred.
Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun, who spent seven years of his childhood in Ottawa, was appointed last December as U.S. special envoy to monitor and combat antisemitism, an ambassador-rank position.
“My message is to Canada, you need to do better,” Kaploun told The Canadian Press last week during a visit to Ottawa.
Trump’s man will trigger the Liberal Party.
A lot of unflattering articles today about Canada and the Islamist leanings of the Liberal-left.
OTTAWA — A former Ontario man and a Conservative U.S. think tank are encouraging the Trump administration to offer refugee status to Jewish Canadians who feel threatened by rising antisemitism here.
“With the urgency around the challenges and the inaction we see in Canada, an asylum pathway makes sense,” said Joe Roberts, the executive director of Jewish Tulsa, a group that has helped welcome Jews like himself to the Oklahoma city.
Roberts said thousands of Canadian Jews are seeking to escape constant fear over the firebombing of Jewish schools, temples and businesses.
REMIGRATION.
Sometimes, you can get a little too “Elbows Up.”
Kaitlyn Tracey, 33, the Canadian mega-wokie who attacked an American teen girl decked out in pro-Trump gear on July 3 on a New Jersey boardwalk, will be deported back to Canada. A Texas immigration judge ordered Tracey to go home on Tuesday, after she entered a guilty plea to misdemeanor simple assault — part of a deal she made after she was arrested for her involvement in a caught-on-camera fracas with four teens.
How the plot thickens… Kaitlyn Tracey—the Canadian who attacked an underage girl celebrating the 4th of the July, while on an expired visa and in the USA illegally—is clearly seen on video here striking the girl wearing what appears to be an America 250 shirt and blue shorts. pic.twitter.com/hakGGCMtnj

Abdul El-Sayed SQUEAKS through with Michigan win as anguished Dems panic battleground seat may slip away
Progressive insurgent Abdul El-Sayed has been declared the winner of Tuesday’s rollercoaster Democratic primary for US Senate by NBC News.
El-Sayed’s slim victory over Congresswoman Haley Stevens is the most emphatic sign to date that the progressive wing of the Democratic Party is on the ascent, but not without baggage.
His single-point win will also raise new questions about whether his strength among base voters can translate to a general election this fall, as Democrats look to flip four seats necessary to secure a majority in the upper chamber.
DSA won Michigan US. Senate Primary this guy not gonna win.. statewide. 🤦🏽♂️ https://t.co/dk8hHrbB6s

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Many Haitians in the United States, having fled environmental disasters, political upheaval, and gang violence at home, are living in fear again, this time in their adopted country.
Nearly 300,000 Haitians have had Temporary Protected Status (TPS), a relief program established by former U.S. president Barack Obama that provided work authorization, protection from deportation and travel documentation to eligible foreigners whose home countries were deemed unsafe.
