Rex Murphy: Conjuring up an even greater reset

Some world leaders, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau apparently among them, think that the COVID-19 crisis offers an “opportunity” to “re-imagine” or “reshape” national economies, and tie them to broad international schemes. High in the list of such schemes is, in their words, “ending the carbon economy.” In other words, killing off oil and gas.

In a weak moment, I have allowed myself to imagine how Trudeau could earn, if not the right, then at least the acceptance of the Canadian public, for his grand international visions. The speech that follows is entirely imaginary, which at least places it in the same realm as some of the schemes we have been hearing about.

These Three States Can Stop the Steal – Will the GOP legislatures of GA, PA, and MI have the courage to end this travesty?

These Three States Can Stop the Steal – Will the GOP legislatures of GA, PA, and MI have the courage to end this travesty?

It could hardly be more obvious that the Democrats approached the 2020 election willing to do anything, from illegally altering state election laws to committing brazen ballot fraud, in the cause of defeating President Trump. It’s equally clear that the “news” media are abetting this travesty by studiously ignoring credible evidence while anointing Joe Biden “President-elect.” This corrupt contingency is precisely why the framers created the Electoral College. No one becomes “President-elect” until the members of that body meet in their respective states to cast their ballots. Who selects the Electors?

Cooperate with China or World War 3: Kissinger

“I would think we need first of all a dialogue with the Chinese leadership in which we are defining what we’re attempting to prevent and in which the two leaders agree that whatever other conflicts they have they will not resort to military conflict,” Henry Kissinger told Bloomberg News Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait on November 16 at the Bloomberg New Economy Forum. “Unless there is some basis for some cooperative action, the world will slide into a catastrophe comparable to World War I.”

Of course no one wants war of any type with China, but in a little over 14 minutes Kissinger managed to totally misinterpret Chinese history, support Beijing’s most important foreign policy goal, and give deeply misguided advice to Joe Biden. Kissinger has evidently learned nothing from years of dangerous Chinese behavior, which is partly the result of his policy formulations.

Trump Says Global Climate Pact Biden Wants to Rejoin Could ‘Kill the American Economy’

Trump Says Global Climate Pact Biden Wants to Rejoin Could ‘Kill the American Economy’

President Donald Trump on Sunday criticized the global climate pact that the United States withdrew from under his administration and which Democratic presidential contender Joe Biden hopes to rejoin, as being designed not to save the planet but undercut America’s economy.

Trump said in a video statement from the White House to the Group of 20 summit hosted by Saudi Arabia that the Paris Climate Agreement was “not designed to save the environment. It was designed to kill the American economy.”

It’s ‘sweet relief’ to be home, says US boy forced to threaten Trump in IS video

Junior, Mom and stepdad

An American boy who was made to threaten President Donald Trump in an Islamic State group video says it was “sweet relief” to return to the US.

Matthew, taken to Syria by his mother and stepfather, was 10 when he was filmed telling Mr Trump to prepare for a battle on US soil.

Now 13, he has been living with his father for a year, after being flown home by the US military in 2018.

“It’s happened and it’s done. It’s all behind me now,” he told the BBC.

“I was so young I did not really understand any of it.”

Waffle House CEO blasts lockdown-loving, elitist lawmakers for most anti-working class act in US history

The CEO of the popular breakfast chain Waffle House is calling out lockdown-loving, elitist politicians who have nearly bankrupted the restaurant industry during the COVID-19 pandemic with one-size-fits-all restrictions on indoor dining. “None of the people who make the decisions to shut down businesses and impact people’s livelihoods ever have their own livelihood impacted,” Walt Ehmer declared.

Ontario sets new record of 1,589 Kung Flu Kases

Ontario sets new record of 1,589 Kung Flu Kases

Ontario is reporting a record number of new cases of COVID-19 just as Toronto and Peel enter a lockdown to control the rapid spread of the virus.

The Ministry of Health says that there were 1,589 new instances of the disease caused by the novel coronavirus confirmed on Sunday, as we all as another 19 deaths.


Climate change: Covid pandemic has little impact on rise in CO2

The global response to the Covid-19 crisis has had little impact on the continued rise in atmospheric concentrations of CO2, says the World Meteorological Organization (WMO).

Carbon emissions fell dramatically in 2020 due to lockdowns that saw transport and industry grind to a halt.

But this has only marginally slowed down the overall rise in concentrations, the scientists say.

Toronto and Peel Region begin 28-day lockdown

Toronto and Peel Region begin 28-day lockdown

Toronto and Peel Region have entered the lockdown stage of Ontario’s pandemic protection plan.

It means that for at least the next 28 days, non-essential retailers can only offer curbside pickup, while restaurants are closed to all but takeout and delivery orders in the two COVID-19 hot spots.

The rent subsidy will help some businesses, but for many it will be too late.

Individuals are reportedly avoiding testing because a positive puts them at real risk of job loss.

We are being driven into poverty and no amount of “sorry” by politicians and the well insulated will mitigate that loss.

‘KrakenOnSteroids’: Sydney Powell says she ‘understands’ Trump’s lawyers distancing themselves from her, vows to fight on

Sidney Powell, one of the most vocal legal voices championing the Trump campaign’s allegations of large-scale election fraud, has said she stands by her claims after the president’s legal team seemingly distanced itself from her.

“I understand today’s press release. I will continue to represent #WeThePeople who had their votes for Trump and other Republicans stolen by massive fraud through Dominion and Smartmatic, and we will be filing suit soon,” Powell told CBS News in a statement on Sunday, hours after the Trump campaign clarified she was not a part of the legal team led by Rudy Giuliani.
