Not liking long nails is racist!
If you don’t like super-long, fake nails and think about bacteria lurking underneath, it’s because you’re a racist.
Let a liberal white teacher explain. 💅🏿

A Los Angeles city councilman just coined a new appellation for the drug-addicted vagrants who colonize city streets. They are “our neighbors,” says Hugo Soto-Martínez, a member of the L.A. Chapter of Democratic Socialists of America. Who knew?
This new identity is even more cheeky than the original rebranding of such vagrants as “the homeless.” Soto-Martinez used the “neighbors” designation to persuade his fellow council members to allow homeless encampments near senior centers and libraries and around freeway overpasses. The previous occupant of Soto-Martinez’s seat had banned such encampments in his and, eventually, Soto-Martinez’s district, which includes Hollywood and Echo Park. Last Tuesday’s 10–3 vote repealed that ban. At present, the repeal applies only to what is now Soto-Martinez’s jurisdiction. But expect this green light for street squalor to extend more widely, as the Left pushes Los Angeles further toward uncontrolled anarchy.
Canada has kept its defence relationship with the U.S. largely on the sidelines of recent trade talks. But with negotiations broken down, experts say the likelihood of major defence procurements factoring into punitive measures taken by either side is growing.
Talks between the two countries collapsed on Friday just before President Donald Trump’s latest round of tariffs of 50-per-cent on US$20-billion worth of Canadian exports came into effect. Days earlier, the U.S. and Canada had reached a tentative deal, but Prime Minister Mark Carney pulled back at the last minute, stating that the U.S. had changed its terms.
PETA knows how to find a villain.
When Kristi Noem, then South Dakota governor and later a member of the Trump administration, revealed in 2024 that she had shot her 14-month-old dog Cricket, PETA went straight for her throat.
Politicians are arguing, pointing fingers and laying blame, but regular Canadians are about to feel pain.
As a new wave of tariffs hits Canadian industries, workers in plants across the country will start losing their jobs.
Some might be told as early as today that production is shutting down, that the tariffs make it impossible to continue or sustain current levels of production.
A new Palestinian political alliance now taking shape should serve as a warning to the United States, Europe, and anyone hoping to see a moderate and peaceful Palestinian leadership emerge after the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led massacre in Israel.
The men allegedly at the middle of a massive transnational drug trafficking operation are counting on Canadian soft justice to see them through.
Gurtej Smagh, Jaskarn Baghri, and Ravinder Dhanda are now facing extradition to the United States for their suspected roles in the operation.
Niu Lai, a Chinese animated film centered around a cattle dream sequence made for $200, has reportedly become the most profitable movie of all time after making over $6.7 million at the box office as of Sunday.
Wild story. Chinese mom (in her 60s) and son (30s) duo spend 5 years making 86-minute animated animal film “Niu Lai”.
Budget of $200. Hustle to get theatre distribution. Flops with $1,000 in first week. So bad it’s good. Goes viral.
Now made $4m on $200 and 20,000x return… https://t.co/LKHHkaKtaw pic.twitter.com/b8nOhBY6vU

In a brief report long on speculative doom and short on facts and data, ABC News, once again, instinctively took the side oppositional to the Trump administration. This time, the Disney subsidiary parroted the spin of Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney while reporting on the collapse of a potential deal between the United States and Canada.
Iranian state-affiliated TV Channel 3 has released a video threatening US President Donald Trump’s son, Barron Trump, detailing specific surveillance against him and offering a $10 million reward for his death, Iran International reported on Monday.
Sorry no English version yet.
Iran has officially put a $10 MILLION bounty on Barron Trump!
How do you think President Trump will react to THIS?! pic.twitter.com/5Vky8f7vIq

Privacy experts are raising concerns after a Winnipeg bar flagged a woman as a nationwide public safety concern through its ID scanning system, which led to her being denied entry to a Calgary Stampede venue in July.
Alexandra, a Montreal-based lawyer, went to the Riverside bar in St. Vital on June 6, where a person working security scanned her driver’s licence at the door using a Patronscan ID scanner.
She said she was not told why they were scanning it and had no idea an incident later that evening would lead to a flag that potentially banned her from bars across Canada.
This is creepy.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reiterated on Sunday that Ukraine was not involved in the 2022 attack on the Nord Stream underwater gas pipelines.
“Ukraine has never officially taken part in any operation related to the blowing up of Nord Stream,” Zelenskyy told reporters on Sunday in response to a question about the ongoing investigation.
He said that Germany was “well aware that Ukraine did not stand behind the execution or the very conception of this operation.”
“Never Officially” what an odd choice of words, especially after two Ukraine nationals have been arested.
YIKES 👀 Doug Ford just called President Trump a Dictator, this comes after Trump said if Ford continues the consequences for Canada will be far worse

Doug Ford and Donald Trump exchange insults as trade war heats up.
TORONTO—Over the past 17 months, as President Trump has freighted Canada’s economy with several rounds of punishing tariffs, Prime Minister Mark Carney has often repeated the guiding maxim for his negotiations with the U.S.: No deal is better than a bad one.
Now he’s putting that rule to the test.
After nearly a month of trade negotiations aimed at staving off more U.S. tariffs on Canada, Carney walked away from a deal at the last minute on Friday night, allowing levies of 50% on $20 billion worth of Canadian goods to come into force.
