Mike Johnson flips Epstein script on GOP saying Ghislaine Maxwell SHOULD testify and Pam Bondi must release files

Top congressional Republican Speaker Mike Johnson has shockingly come out in favor of the Jefferey Epstein files being released, despite the administration claiming the ‘client list’ doesn’t exist.

The Republican shared on a podcast with conservative pundit Benny Johnson that he would like more transparency from the White House surrounding the highly sought after files on the deceased pedophile.

Asked if he would support efforts to have Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell testify before Congress, the speaker said ‘I’m for transparency.’ He also appeared open to Congress issuing subpoenas to the FBI and Department of Justice to force the agencies to turn over any previously undisclosed files.

Behind the Smile: EU Ready To Drop Israel

The European Union insists that it doesn’t want to “punish” Israel over its fight against Hamas terrorists, yet it appears to be on the edge of its seat waiting for an opportune moment to break all ties.

At a press conference on Tuesday afternoon following a meeting between European foreign ministers, the bloc’s top diplomat Kaja Kallas said “we see positive signs” on increased humanitarian aid access to Gaza, as per an EU-Israel deal struck last week. She pointed in particular to there being more trucks and supplies entering Gaza, as well as to the repairing of electricity supply points.

HEINRICHS: Cash is freedom — and Ottawa wants to take it away

Alberta-based North Economics reports that in 2022, Canada’s five largest banks recorded $7.73 billion in non-interest retail bank profits. That’s about $250 for every Canadian.

North Economics managing director Alain de Brossart broke it down, stating, “Canadian banks have done a very good job of extracting as many fees out of people as possible.”

This Is What Civilizational Suicide Looks Like

South Korea Abandoned School

You can’t have a country without children.

Forget pandemics. Forget war. South Korea is dying by choice. Not a bomb, not a plague, not even bad luck. A slow, quiet vanishing. It’s not falling to enemies; it’s falling to itself.

Over the next century, South Korea’s population is projected to decline to just 7.5 million. That’s not a typo. That’s an 85 percent collapse: 51 million people, down to seven and a half. Picture America with the population of California, minus everyone else. Now imagine that across the entire continent. Ghost cities. Empty homes. Schools boarded up. Airports with no flights. Subways running on time — for no one. It sounds like dystopian fiction. Sadly, though, it’s a reality that has already begun.

Jamie Sarkonak: Non-citizen johns shouldn’t get sentence discounts for their crimes

 

In December 2023, Akashkumar Khant, 30 (plus or minus some months), made the mistake of arranging to have sex with a 15-year-old at a Mississauga Holiday Inn for $140.

Only, when he got there, that 15-year-old turned out to be a cop. He was arrested at the hotel (with $140 in cash on hand) and subsequently ended up in court — but he won’t receive a criminal record for his actions, in part because of his immigration status.

EV charger company Flo to close Quebec plant, lay off workers

A producer of electric-vehicle chargers in Canada is pointing to trade tensions and shifting political dynamics in America as a major contributor to its decision to close a manufacturing facility in Shawinigan, Quebec. Flo, founded sixteen years ago in Quebec as AddENÉRGIE, is shuttering one of its three plants, throwing approximately 80 employees out of work. Flo has two other production sites, one in the Grand-Mère area of Quebec, plus another in Auburn Hills near Detroit.

Of course … Canada Infrastructure Bank marks its first EV charging investment with a $220 million commitment to FLO®

Europe will be conquered by its own tolerance

Imagine a German going to Afghanistan to hold a rally for “democracy,” “freedom,” and “rights”: at best, they would face public flogging—one of Kabul’s most popular activities.

Muslim extremists, on the other hand, are allowed to march in Berlin demanding the establishment of a caliphate in the name of “democracy,” “freedom,” and “rights.”

This was perfectly and ignorantly foretold by Monsignor Giuseppe Bernardini, bishop of Izmir, Turkey, when on October 13, 1999, he said that “during an official meeting on Islamic-Christian dialogue, a prominent Muslim figure said calmly and confidently to the Christian participants: ‘Thanks to your democratic laws we will invade you; thanks to our religious laws we will dominate you.’”

Foreign Bot Networks Are Trying to Take Down Trump

Fake MAGA influencers advance agendas aligned with hostile foreign states.

Hostile foreign actors are increasingly using social media to drive a wedge into Donald Trump’s political coalition. Using open-source intelligence and analyses of online activity, we explore this phenomenon, which we call “fake MAGA,” in a recent report for the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI).

Our report defines fake MAGA influencers as those who use “Make America Great Again” or “America First” branding to target these audiences but are in fact linked to large-scale bot farms—as evidenced by the creation of massive numbers of such accounts at opportune moments on X. That is, our analysis reveals coordinated account-creation spikes (for instance, during Elon Musk’s Twitter acquisition), followed by synchronized amplification of identical narratives by those same accounts during a crisis.

Democracy Watch Blows the Whistle on Carney’s Ethics Sham

So here’s something the media doesn’t want to talk about because it shatters the entire illusion they’ve built around the man they now call Prime Minister: Mark Carney. The technocratic savior, the former banker with all the right globalist credentials, the guy who jets between Davos and Ottawa with a PowerPoint and a carbon tax. And yet, today buried under polite headlines and careful euphemisms a watchdog group in Canada finally said what should’ve been obvious to anyone paying attention.

Mark Carney’s ethics screen and his so-called “blind trust” are scams. Period.

Carney and Trump may not be on the same team but they do seem to working toward the same goal. The end of Canada.

Why Palestinians Terrorists Want a Ceasefire in Gaza

In separate statements over the past week, senior officials of the Iran-backed Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) said that their terror groups “will not surrender.” The statements came as the Trump administration continued its efforts to end the war in the Gaza Strip and secure the release of 50 Israeli hostages held by the terror groups. Twenty of the hostages are believed to be alive, while the remaining 30 are presumed dead. The hostages were kidnapped during the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led invasion of Israel. At least 1,200 Israelis and foreign nationals were murdered that day, and thousands wounded.

America’s Biggest Rare-Earth Producer Makes a Play to End China’s Dominance

FORT WORTH—At an industrial site in this Texas city, men dressed in head-to-toe protective gear dip giant ladles into a well of molten metal heated to 1,800 degrees Fahrenheit. They’re making something the U.S. has hardly, if ever, produced at commercial scale in recent decades: rare-earth metals.

The factory is the most visible mark of MP Materials’ high-stakes, billion-dollar bet that an American company can take on China’s dominance over the metals—and the magnets they power in everything from cars and smartphones to missile systems.

In recent months, China has used its chokehold over 90% of the world’s rare-earth magnets to cut off access to Western companies, rattling industrial giants such as Ford and Tesla and forcing the U.S. to the table for trade talks.
