Starmer and Macron vow to help open the Strait of Hormuz

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron — a.k.a., dumb and dumber, or gay and gayer, take your pick — have now agreed to lend their nations’ potent militaries to help open the Strait of Hormuz.

Unfortunately for them, and the dignity of the countries they allegedly lead, the U.S. has already opened the strait.

Even Iran has announced that the strait is now open.

Indigenous elder tells UBC event she wishes to see academic Frances Widdowson raped

Indigenous elder tells UBC event she wishes to see academic Frances Widdowson raped

The University of British Columbia said it “does not condone” recent comments by a First Nations leader but did not indicate if it would take any action after the guest speaker at one of its events expressed her desire to see her political opponent get beaten and raped.

UBC’s response comes after Charlene Belleau, an elder in the Esk’etemc First Nation in B.C., appeared at a virtual event earlier this week hosted by Derek Thompson, the university’s Indigenous initiatives advisor. During the virtual talk, Belleau recalled comments she made toward Frances Widdowson, an academic focused on economics and Indigenous policy, when she had approached Widdowson in person at a campus event in late 2025.

Two-tier policing out in force in Epsom and Clapham

Two-tier policing out in force in Epsom and Clapham

ON Wednesday, a group of mostly white working-class men protested against the ridiculous claim by Surrey Police that they do not have ‘sufficient information’ to describe the gang rapists of a woman outside Epsom Methodist Church on Saturday. The protesters were confronted by police in full riot gear.

Yet two weeks ago, hundreds of mostly non-white youths, organised on social media, swarmed Clapham High Street. They ran riot, jostled pedestrians, shoplifted, let off fireworks, blocked the streets, and assaulted first responders. A few police officers showed up to observe from their cars. Eventually 100 officers were deployed, of whom four were assaulted. They issued a dispersal order, and (later still) arrested three girls.

Such two-tier policing aggravates the tensions in Epsom.

The Fujian Connection: Canadian Election Interference Site, MSS Officer, and Convicted Snakehead John Chan — the Network Congress Is Now Pushing the IRS to Investigate

The Fujian Connection: Canadian Election Interference Site, MSS Officer, and Convicted Snakehead John Chan — the Network Congress Is Now Pushing the IRS to Investigate

NEW YORK — In the final days of winter, in March 2019, Golden Imperial Court in Brooklyn staged a scene that carried extraordinary significance. At the head banquet table, raising a glass of red wine, was John Chan, the restaurant’s owner. Seated beside him was Li Qing, a younger man from China’s consulate in New York whose title was Overseas Chinese Affairs Officer. To Li’s right was the president of the Fuzhou Langqi Friendship Association, marked by a red sash across his chest.

CAIR Goes After Children Accused of ‘Blasphemy’ Against Islam

CAIR Goes After Children Accused of ‘Blasphemy’ Against Islam

CAIR, an unindicted terrorist funding co-conspirator, whose chapter had previously targeted an art teacher in Minnesota over paintings of Mohammed, is now coming after a shark in sneakers and the children who enjoy spreading its memes on a gaming platform known as Roblox.

According to the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), the shark in sneakers is guilty of blasphemy for saying “porco Allah” or “Allah is a pig”. And so are the kids spreading memes of the shark, better known as ‘Tralalero Tralalá’ chanting “Allah is a pig”. (It rhymes in Italian.)


No one says a thing about Porco Dio!

Why the Liberals may pay a price for the party’s increasingly big tent

Why the Liberals may pay a price for the party’s increasingly big tent

OTTAWA — Political parties, particularly those that are close enough to smell power, are quick to describe themselves as “big tents.”

With the addition this week of Conservative MP Marilyn Gladu, the Liberal party’s new tent — to riff off a crack going around some Parliament Hill circles — is now big enough to drive a truckers’ convoy through.

‘I feel like I’m losing her’: the families torn apart by older relatives going far right

‘I feel like I’m losing her’: the families torn apart by older relatives going far right

Graham doesn’t remember his mother ever sharing her political views. He’s not certain she even voted until she met his father, who was a big Labour supporter. She went along with that, only once voting Tory as an act of spite towards the end of their relationship. She later married a farmer who was more conservative, and leaned towards leave in the Brexit referendum. “But, honestly, beyond that, she would never even speak of politics. She just wasn’t interested.”

Graham, who works in the transport industry in the Midlands, noticed a big change in his mother during the Covid pandemic. “I remember walking home from work one day and I got this phone call and all of a sudden she was listing off these conspiracy theories at me.” He now realises how much time she was spending online, on her phone and iPad, cut off from friends, family and the church life that had always been so important to her.


I keep hoping for an expose by some guy of the Crazy Crap he got published in the Guardian, but no luck so far this piece is not satire, well it’s not supposed to be.

BC NDP denounces Western Standard as ‘racist’ for editorial rejecting 60M Indian immigrants

VANCOUVER — The BC NDP caucus has accused interim BC Conservative Leader Trevor Halford of promoting a “racist website” by praising the Western Standard while remaining silent on the specific article that prompted his praise.

In a media release issued Friday, NDP MLA Rohini Arora criticized Halford after he described the Western Standard as “independent journalism at its best” and said “B.C. needs more of it.”

Man Who Threw Molotov Cocktail at OpenAI CEO’s Home Referenced Luigi Mangione

A 20-year-old Texas man who allegedly firebombed OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s home in San Francisco referenced Luigi Mangione, who is accused of fatally shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

The suspect, Daniel Moreno-Gama allegedly traveled from Texas to California with several weapons, a Molotov cocktail, and a manifesto in which he railed against artificial intelligence. He believed the technology poses an existential threat.


A return to the days when anarchists committed assassinations across the western world?

Eric Swalwell, California Psycho

Eric Swalwell, California Psycho

He hid a seriously disturbed moral compass behind his shield of virtue signaling.

It’s hard to fathom how fast now-former Rep. Eric Swalwell’s star has faded. One moment he was the leading contender to be the governor of America’s largest state; the next, he had ended his gubernatorial campaign and resigned his congressional seat in disgrace.

After former Vice President Kamala Harris passed on running for California governor, a thoroughly uninspiring field of Democratic candidates seeking the office sprung up. However, California’s unique primary system meant that Democrats had to rally around somebody, and Swalwell seemed to be the guy.
