Three major outlets experienced sudden swings in their audiences this year—changes that align almost perfectly with how often they were promoted on some of the biggest news aggregators. Newsweek’s traffic plunged in April after steady promotion the month prior. Qatari-backed Al Jazeera saw its readership explode in March. And leftist outlet The Minnesota Star Tribune rode a steep wave upward in January before bottoming out again the next month. The timing was too consistent to ignore.
Canadian man who allegedly sold lethal chemical will not be tried in UK
Families in the UK say they are angry at the decision by prosecutors not to charge a Canadian man who is alleged to have sold a lethal chemical linked to the deaths of 73 British people.
The father of one of those who died told the BBC that Kenneth Law had caused “devastation” and that he wanted Law to face charges in the UK.
Law, a former chef, is expected to admit 14 counts of assisting suicides in Canada when he appears in court in Ontario later on Friday.
Why ex-CIA officer David Rush’s $40M gold bar case could point to ‘large-scale cover-up’
Ex-CIA officer David Rush’s alleged years-long scheme that netted him $40 million in gold bars and a top-secret security clearance has those in the Clandestine Service community questioning how he slipped through the fastidious vetting process — and who else may be flying under the radar.
Former CIA staff operations officer Tracy Walder was baffled over the stunning allegations against Rush and believes they could point to a much more troubling issue within the agency.
“This would have been a large-scale lying cover-up. There would have had to be a lot of other co-conspirators,” Walder told The Post.

Rosie O‘Donnell Feels ‘Secret Shame‘ After Getting Facelift She Previously Called a ‘Betrayal‘ of Feminism
Comedienne and former The View co-host Rosie O’Donnell is now admitting to having had a facelift despite calling the plastic surgery procedure a “betrayal” of feminism in the past.
Before the outspoken, left-wing comedienne lost 50 pounds she vowed to fans that she would not get a facelift to get rid of her sagging, excess skin. But after the weight loss, she did it anyway. And now she is calling it her “secret shame.”
If you go to Turkey for a facelift, you will return to the USA looking like a totally different person, plus you can come home with a genuine Turkish rug and a knock-off Rolex.

Canada slipped into a technical recession on an annualized basis as economic growth stalled in 1st quarter
Canada’s economy contracted in the first quarter on an annualized basis by a slim margin, marking the second consecutive quarter of such decline — which some would call a technical recession.
Statistics Canada said real gross domestic product fell 0.1 per cent on an annualized basis in the first three months of this year. That comes after a downwardly revised contraction of one per cent in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Two consecutive quarters of contraction in economic growth is termed a technical recession.

Italy restores lucky testicles on bull mosaic worn down by tourists
A famous bull mosaic in one of Italy’s grand arcades is getting some much-needed care after being worn down by tourists honouring a tradition involving its delicate body parts.
As the legend goes, tourists in Milan who grind their heels on the bull’s testicles and spin in place three times are guaranteed good fortune and are destined to return.
The Corporate “Labour Shortage” Myth
In March, the Carney government announced a relaxation of rules for the Temporary Foreign Worker (TFW) program in rural Canada. At the request of any premier, the allowable share of low-wage TFWs in rural workforces can be increased from 10% to 15%. So far, Manitoba, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia have opted in.
It is notable that most provinces have not chosen to avail themselves of the federal government’s offer to boost TFW numbers. The Canadian public’s support for immigration restriction shows few signs of cooling, and provincial governments are to some extent behaving accordingly.
