Actress Jenifer Lewis Claims White People Are Killing Black Children

Actress Jenifer Lewis posted a bizarre video to social media in which she went on an unhinged rhyming rant claiming that white people are killing black children.

“Stop killing our children, son of a bitch,” Lewis declared at the beginning of the video, which she posted to social media alongside the caption, “My sincere condolences to ALL the families around the world who have lost their children to so much hatred.”

A wealth tax could transform our world

A wealth tax could transform our world

Given the immense power of today’s tech moguls, it’s almost impossible to imagine a California labour union succeeding in its bid to impose a wealth tax on the state’s high-flying billionaires.

So it’s heartening to know that something similar once happened.

In the “Gilded Age” of the 1890s, an ultra-rich elite dominated America economically and politically, with their fortresses of wealth effectively untouched by the tax system.

Corporate watchdog was still accepting complaints as Carney abruptly closed it down

A corporate watchdog was still accepting complaints right up until the point Prime Minister Mark Carney announced its dissolution — seemingly out of nowhere — despite saying the decision to discontinue the office was made “months” earlier.

The Canadian Ombudsperson for Responsible Enterprise (CORE) was introduced under former prime minister Justin Trudeau in 2019 to investigate potential human rights abuses committed by Canadian companies operating abroad.

The rise of eco-fascism

The rise of eco-fascism

Alfie Coleman was 16 when Britain went into Covid lockdown and, like many teenagers, he spent more time online than he should have. Doomscrolling in his bedroom, he found much to trouble his young mind – including apocalyptic warnings about climate change.

But while other worried youngsters might have been tempted to join Extinction Rebellion (XR), Coleman favoured an even more extreme form of direct action.


Right-Wing Eco-nutters? New to me.

Trump has ‘won the argument’ on NATO defence spending, Carney says at summit

Trump has ‘won the argument’ on NATO defence spending, Carney says at summit

NATO countries are bolstering their militaries after U.S. President Donald Trump “won the argument” on defence spending, Prime Minister Mark Carney said Wednesday.

Trump has long said allies don’t spend enough on defence and that the U.S. has carried more than its fair share of NATO’s defence spending burden.

Carney told reporters in Turkey on the last day of the summit that Trump is looking to shift that burden – something former U.S. president Barack Obama had sought as well.
