What is it with Democrats and religion? We’ve heard plenty, and probably will hear plenty more from Texas state Rep. James Talarico (D-Texas) on his own twisted views of Christianity as he vies to move up to the varsity in Washington.
‘Mr. Edwin had a plan’: Gunman guilty of murder for random Toronto shootings.
A man who said voices told him to randomly shoot two men on the streets of downtown Toronto in 2022 acted in a “rational, methodical and organized” manner, a judge concluded Monday, convicting Richard Edwin of two counts of first-degree murder.
“These acts appear to have been thought out and planned over time,” Superior Court Justice Jane Kelly said in front of the families of victims Kartik Vasudev and Elijah Mahepath.
Nolte: Obamas and Netflix Reportedly Parting Ways
Higher Ground, the dumb production company founded by Barry and Michelle Obama in 2018, is parting ways with Netflix.
After eight years under a lucrative first-look deal, Higher Ground and Netflix will not renew it when the deal expires at the end of 2026.
Gee, what a shame.
LILLEY: Carney warns against U.S. ties after betting his fortune on America
For a man so heavily invested in the United States, Mark Carney certainly wants us to fear the USA and to see it as a threat. The prime minister’s video address, released on Sunday, contained several warnings about being too close to the Americans.
He even invoked the War of 1812 while invoking the idea that we need to fight a common enemy today.
What’s it gonna take for the Elbow Zombies to wake up?
FBI has evidence backing Trump’s 2020 stolen-election claims, Patel says
FBI Director Kash Patel said Sunday the bureau has gathered evidence supporting President Trump’s claim that the 2020 election was stolen, but that he is not ready to share any of the information because he does not want to get ahead of the investigation.
“We have the information that backs President Trump’s claim,” Mr. Patel said. “I can’t get ahead of the DOJ and the president, but President Trump, President Trump speaks truthfully when he says that.”
He urged viewers to “stay tuned this week. You might see a thing or two.”
Mark Carney would likely keep his majority if an election was held now, polls suggest
OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney would likely keep — and possibly enlarge — his new-found Liberal majority if a general election was held today, according to the latest projection from The Signal polling aggregator.
The latest forecast pegs the Liberals’ chances of winning a majority of seats in the House of Commons at 96 per cent, while the Conservatives under Pierre Poilievre have a one per cent chance of clinching power, and only through a minority government.
WAPO concerned children may receive an education
This teaching method, pushed by conservatives, is on the rise
PALM BAY, Fla. — Seniors at Pineapple Cove Classical Academy draw upon the Bible and books from the Western canon to answer a quintessential question in their capstone project: What is the good life?
Children at the K-12 school learn Latin, engage in the Socratic method and write in cursive. The use of technology is rare. Students walk past paintings of historical scenes that include Betsy Ross sewing an American flag and down hallways lined with portraits of the Founding Fathers.
“We are going to honor the creation of our flag. We are going to honor George Washington,” Lisa Wheeler, principal of the Palm Bay campus, said of the school. She wants students to graduate with an “understanding of the Western civilization” and an appreciation for “the great people who founded our country.”
OMG! Those poor children will learn to think for themselves and be capable of making a contribution to society rather than become illiterate drooling multi-colored haired leftist weenies.
As the U.S. turns on its allies, Canadians look toward joining Europe
The idea keeps coming back. A French politician mused about it in Berlin last month. A Finnish leader visiting Ottawa this April didn’t dismiss it out of hand.
Fresh polls show a majority of Canadians would support it.
And in an era when the United States has turned on its closest allies, the question has acquired a new urgency: Could Canada join the European Union?
Trump denies Israel pushed US into war with Iran
President Donald Trump rejected claims that Israel pressured the United States into initiating Operation Epic Fury, a joint operation that launched the Iran war in late February.
“Israel never talked me into the war with Iran, the results of Oct. 7th, added to my lifelong opinion that IRAN CAN NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON, did,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Monday morning. “I watch and read the FAKE NEWS Pundits and Polls in total disbelief. 90% of what they say are lies and made up stories.”
Dan Albas: High speed rail is another Liberal legacy project without a plan
Conservatives believe Canada is a country ready to build again. For too long, especially in our largest cities, young Canadians have watched governments make big announcements while the cost of living rises, opportunities narrow and major projects stall. After more than a decade of Liberal promises, overspending and delays, Canadians deserve a new approach that delivers real results people can actually afford.
Iranian woman arrested in US for allegedly trafficking arms to Sudan
US authorities have arrested an Iranian woman for trafficking arms to Sudan on behalf of her country, prosecutors have said.
Shamim Mafi, 44, who has an American green card, was arrested at Los Angeles airport on Saturday and is accused of “brokering the sale of drones, bombs, bomb fuses, and millions of rounds of ammunition manufactured by Iran and sold to Sudan”, First Assistant US Attorney Bill Essayli said on X.
The alleged sales were to Sudan’s defence ministry, including a €60m ($70m; £52m) drone contract, court documents show.
Polyamory is growing in Canada, but the legal system hasn’t caught up
As non-traditional relationships become more visible across Canada, a growing number of people are entering into polyamorous relationships. The legal system is struggling to keep up.
While polyamory itself is legal, experts say gaps in Canada’s legal framework leave multi-partner families navigating uncertain terrain when it comes to property, parenting and financial protections.
At the centre of the issue is Section 293 of the Criminal Code of Canada, which criminalizes polygamy — but not polyamory.
Muslim polygamy is practiced in Canada without any punishment that I am aware of.
Just what you’d expect of an unassimilable parallel society and a weak host nation.
Israel condemns soldier’s desecration of crucifix in south Lebanon
Israel’s prime minister, foreign minister and military on Monday condemned the desecration of a crucifix smashed by an Israeli soldier in a southern Lebanese village home to Christians.
A photo that emerged online over the weekend shows a soldier taking the blunt side of an axe to a fallen sculpture of Jesus on the cross. It was posted by Younis Tirawi, who describes himself as a Palestinian reporter and has also posted images of Israeli soldiers’ apparent misconduct in Gaza.
Sigh …
More than half of Conservative voters want Poilievre to lead the party into next election
More than half of past Conservative voters want Pierre Poilievre to lead the party into the next election, although a growing minority would like to see him replaced before then, a new poll has found.
The public-opinion survey for the non-partisan Angus Reid Institute found that 30 per cent of past Conservative voters want Mr. Poilievre to step down before the next election compared with 18 per cent surveyed in August.
The message that worked against Trudeau will work against Carney who has not lived up to anyone’s expectations.
Be patient while the MSM devotes itself to coverage of Poilievre’s real & imagined shortcomings while granting Carney a free ride.
And remember even the RCMP has predicted riots.
Iran has no plans for second round of talks with the US, foreign ministry spokesperson says
Esmail Baghaei, Iran’s foreign ministry spokesperson, has been quoted by Al Jazeera as having said that Iran has no plans for a new round of talks with the US, saying Washington has violated the agreement from its implementation.
The spokesperson also said Tehran can’t forget US attacks on Iran during previous diplomatic talks as he insisted that Iran will continue defending its national interests.
