US military brass brace for firings as Pentagon chief orders top-level meeting

US military officials are reportedly bracing for possible firings or demotions after the Trump administration’s Pentagon chief, Pete Hegseth, abruptly summoned hundreds of generals and admirals from around the world to attend a gathering in Virginia in the upcoming days.

The event, scheduled for Tuesday at Marine Corps University in Quantico, is expected to feature a short address by Hegseth focused on military standards and the “warrior ethos”, according to the Washington Post.

The order to attend the meeting, which has been described as unusual and unprecedented, was reportedly issued with little explanation – and prompted military personnel stationed overseas to have to make last-minute travel arrangements.

Conrad Black: Trump exposes the ‘Palestine’ charade at UN

No one should be under the illusion that the histrionic purported recognition of the Palestinian Authority as the government of the fictional state of Palestine, of uncertain borders, by Canada, France, the United Kingdom and Australia is responsible for any progress. The supposed leader of this beneficiary of western appeasement is Mahmoud Abbas, the 89-year-old survivor of 70 years of comparative and well self-paid moderation in a Potemkin regime in Ramallah that has little authority and to which the Palestinians themselves rightly attach no credence. He is a former KGB agent and, to his credit, for decades a rival of Yasser Arafat, and the recognition of him as Palestinian leader is conditional on the so-called Palestinian Authority being renovated by free and fair elections and a comprehensive program of reform and suppression of its profligate corruption. It is also conditional upon the return to Israel of the remaining hostages seized by Hamas, and the removal of Hamas from the government of Gaza. Mahmoud Abbas has no more ability to deliver on those clauses than any reader of this column. The Palestinians see Abbas as a crook and an over-bribed puppet of Israel masquerading as a legitimate spokesman for the Palestinian interest.

The West is now a war zone where a bulletproof vest is required to speak

With the usual linguistic caution that censors the truth of things, we speak of “incivility”, “violent fringes,” “urban violence” or “youthful excesses” to describe those who set Italian cities ablaze in the name of Gaza, but in reality, this is one of the most alarming symptoms of a phenomenon that far exceeds the limits of a news story or occasional social disorder.

It is, on a Western scale, a real insurrection, intermittent but persistent, led by a significant portion of woke-ized youth and those of Muslim and immigrant origin, against institutions representing democratic order. An internal intifada—not for the sake of provocation, but because the word means what it must: a revolt against a power perceived as illegitimate, hostile, and oppressive.

Walmart CEO Issues Wake-Up Call: ‘AI Is Going to Change Literally Every Job’

BENTONVILLE, Ark.—Walmart executives aren’t sugarcoating the message: Artificial intelligence will wipe out jobs and reshape its workforce.

Now the country’s largest private employer is making plans to confront that reality.

“It’s very clear that AI is going to change literally every job,” Chief Executive Doug McMillon said this week in one of the most pointed assessments to date from a big-company CEO on AI’s likely impact on employment.

Geography and destiny

Two days before Prime Minister Mark Carney’s recent visit to Berlin, Canada put on a little show at the German Foreign Ministry.

This country, the Group of Seven president this year, was one of three that did so at the Auswärtiges Amt’s open house. Walking up the red carpet and through the marbled halls, one could see little Maple Leaf flags sticking out of backpacks and waved by children. Bully, the polar bear mascot for the Eisbären Berlin hockey team, also made an appearance.

But there were few other offerings. Canada gave out a singular maple syrup candy for completing a bingo quiz with questions such as “What is the name of the Prime Minister of Canada?” (One could keep the faux-wooden pen, though.)

Canada must make public order a priority again

This week, Canada’s largest public transit system, the Toronto Transit Commission, announced it would be stationing crisis worker teams directly on subway platforms to improve public safety.

Last week, Canada’s largest library, the Toronto Public Library, announced it would be increasing the number of branches that offer crisis and social support services. This builds on a 2023 pilot project between the library and Toronto’s Gerstein Crisis Centre to service people experiencing mental health, substance abuse and other issues.

Trump’s UN speech reveals inconvenient truth of massive green energy costs

At the Sept. 23, 2025, U.N. General Assembly, President Donald Trump drew global headlines by blasting what he called the “extreme cost” of the green transition, arguing that climate alarmism is impoverishing ordinary people while enriching elites. Whatever one thinks of Trump’s rhetoric, he touched on an inconvenient truth: despite endless assurances from campaigners and institutions like the U.N., World Bank, and World Economic Forum, wind and solar are still not delivering cheap energy. In fact, they are making electricity more expensive.

This is why he is the Greatest!

George Galloway detained at Gatwick airport under the Terrorism Act

George Galloway and his wife were detained by police under the Counter-Terrorism and Border Security Act at Gatwick airport on Saturday.

The former MP was stopped by counter-terrorism officers after flying in to London from Moscow, via Abu Dhabi, according to reports.

The Workers Party of Britain, the party Mr Galloway leads, said the detention was “politically motivated intimidation” and demanded he be freed. Both were ultimately released without charge.

A missed opportunity.
