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.”
OTTAWA — Pierre Poilievre’s latest dispute with a prominent B.C. Tory is renewing scrutiny of the Conservative leader’s approach to managing his party, with some insiders questioning whether he is more focused on settling scores than striving to form government.
Poilievre became the focus of a public clash on Thursday with former B.C. Conservative leadership candidate Caroline Elliott, who narrowly lost a provincial contest this past spring to former federal Conservative MP Kerry-Lynne Findlay.
This rash of Poilievre must go hit pieces seems more a collaboration between Carney’s media and the Uniparty than a populist ground swell.
Poilievre isn’t perfect, but he does piss off the media and I think the message that Canada is nearing irreversible decline will work once that last elbow is a bloody stump.
Eight men were indicted on murder and terrorism conspiracy charges Thursday for their alleged roles in a thwarted drone and sniper attack on the UFC cage-fighting show staged at the White House in June.
The indictment, returned in Ohio, charges all eight in two separate conspiracies, one to provide material support to terrorists and a second to commit murder on federal government territory and to murder a federal government official.
According to the indictment, the plot began in May, when the group began amassing money, firearms, ammunition, body armor, explosives, drones, medical equipment, communications equipment and other items.
Members of Ontario’s trucking industry say they understand why Quebec will require inexperienced drivers from Ontario to take practical exams, citing concerns over insufficient training.
“I don’t blame them. It’s unfortunate,” said Gus Rahim, president of Ontario Truck Driving School.
Some schools that offer training in Ontario — the first province to introduce mandatory entry-level training for truckers — have been found by Ontario’s auditor general to be cutting corners, and Rahim says that’s been a serious concern for the reputation of all schools and for road safety.

Israel shared new intelligence with the U.S. that it said indicated a fresh Iranian plan to kill President Trump, people familiar with the matter said, a finding that would mark an escalation in the war between Washington and Iran.
Iran for years has vowed openly to retaliate against Trump for the assassination of Qassem Soleimani, who was a top general in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, in the president’s first term.
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.
With her baby strapped to her back and carrying little more than the clothes she was wearing, Glenda Banda crossed back into Zambia amid growing anti-migrant sentiment in South Africa.
South Africa has been her home for a decade. It was where she found work, raised her family and hoped to build a better future. She told DW that within days, everything she had worked for was gone.
“I came with only the clothes on my body. I had no clothes to change into,” Banda said, adding that the local mayor had sent young men to her home to ask the landlord to evict her and her family.
A Brampton man known as “King” was sentenced Thursday to 20 years in a Los Angeles prison after pleading guilty this year to orchestrating the transportation of massive amounts of cocaine and methamphetamine from the United States into Canada using long‑haul truckers.
Guramrit Sidhu, 63, ran a cross‑border network of truck drivers who made repeated trips through the Detroit–Windsor Tunnel, the Buffalo-Lake Erie Peace Bridge and the Blue Water Bridge, linking Port Huron, Mich., and Point Edward, Ont. The drugs originated in Mexico and were transferred to Los Angeles for distribution, where Canadians would co-ordinate the north-bound deliveries.

The case of a suspected bomber accused of targeting a Ukrainian oligarch has taken another murky turn, after details of her subsequent murder were revealed in court with evidence suggesting the involvement of Kyiv’s intelligence agencies.
French police last week named Anastasia Berezovska as the person captured on CCTV leaving a rucksack outside a Monaco apartment block. It blew up, injuring the Ukrainian businessman Vadym Iermolaiev as he emerged from the building with his partner and their 13-year-old child.
Prosecutors said that Berezovska, 39, who had disguised herself as a man, fled in a car with German registration plates, crossing into France and then Italy.
In Kyiv, the mysterious events have raised concerns about damage to Ukraine’s reputation. No shit. Your tax dollars at work.

A new automaker has entered Canada’s electric vehicle market giving some consumers looking to purchase a new vehicle more options.
Lotus, owned by the Chinese Geely Group, recently shipped its first Eletre EVs to Canada under a Canada-China deal signed in January.

Just the cost of doing business with the Chicoms.
Tyler Robinson’s trans lover, Lance Twiggs, revealed his partner’s alleged tearful confession after returning home from killing Charlie Kirk — hours before turning himself in.
Robinson feverishly paced his apartment before breaking down and declaring he “wishes he hadn’t done it,” Twiggs told prosecutors Thursday in never-before-seen footage.
