Bill C-293 is arguably the most concerning legislation I've seen in 25 years. Under the guise of pandemic preparedness, it grants the government excessive power to potentially reduce meat consumption in favour of promoting plant-based diets.

No one cares when they can barely speak English;
… it’s really quite strange that [Governor General] Simon headed to the Quebec City area last week for some public events, despite her French having apparently improved not much at all in three years — or at least, not to an extent she is willing to use it in public. (In December last year, Simon told Radio-Canada she had received 184 hours of French lessons. Over the weekend she told CTV News that she can, in fact, carry on a brief conversation in French.)
It was weirder still that Simon cancelled the remainder of her Quebec City itinerary after journalists noticed she wasn’t speaking French.
“From The River To The Sea”
So how’s that been working for them lately?
Hezbollah claims it can handle any IDF invasion in southern Lebanon. They performed surprisingly well in 2006, Yonah Jeremy Bob reminds readers in the Jerusalem Post, and that was without the drone technology that both sides use to great effect. However, the IDF just finished conducting a similar ground war in Gaza and has a much better grasp on combined-arms operations to counter those threats. Plus, Hezbollah had an intact command structure in 2006 and the ability to coordinate attacks and move materiel on the battlefield. Those two capabilities may no longer exist within Hezbollah, even with their tunnel networks — which is the obvious priority for the IDF anyway.
Plus, the IDF continues to attack Hezbollah’s remaining command-control assets in Beirut[…]
That brings us to Lebanon’s response. Previously, Hezbollah and Lebanon’s armed forces coordinated defense plans for the blue line. Now, however, Lebanon’s army has pulled back three miles, leaving Hezbollah alone to face the IDF…
But wait, there’s more.
Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in an interview with @cnnturk said that Iran’s secret services had created a special unit to combat Mossad operating in Iran. However, turns out the head of this unit was himself a Mossad agent, along with 20 other agents, who were responsible for multiple intelligence operations in Iran including stealing nuclear docs and assassinating several Iranian nuclear scientists before allegedly fleeing to Israel
I can’t stop laughing, @TheMossadIL, that’s too badass even for you
Rescue The Republic
Matt Taibbi’s speech in Washington;
I was once taught you should always open an important speech by making reference to a shared experience.
So what do all of us at “Rescue the Republic” have in common? Nothing!
In a pre-Trump universe chimpanzees would be typing their fourth copy of Hamlet before RFK Jr., Robert Malone, Zuby, Tulsi Gabbard, Russell, Bret Weinstein and I would organically get together for any reason, much less an event like this.
True, everyone speaking has been censored. The issues were all different, but everyone disagreed with “authoritative voices” about something.
Saying no is very American. From “Don’t Tread on Me!” to “Nuts” to “You Cannot Be Serious!” defiance is in our DNA.
Now disagreement is seen as threat, and according to John Kerry, must be “hammered out of existence.” The former Presidential candidate just complained at a World Economic Forum meeting that “it’s really hard to govern” and “our First Amendment stands as a major block” to the important work of hammering out unhealthy choices.
In the open he said this! I was telling Tim Pool about this backstage and he asked, “Was black ooze coming out of his mouth?”

The Failed Attempt on Trump
I timed my vacation into the far north for what was looking like it’d be the lull in the American Election/Cold Civil War/Collapse cycle.
Unlike 2020 where the regime was hyper focused on creating enough chaos to drive Trump from office, whether that be the extreme totalitarian and deranged response to Covid or fake Gretchen Witmer kidnapping (a plot which may have had more feds and informants than actual target “extremists”), or actively burning the country to the ground in the state backed riots and violent pogroms against white, asian, and black small business owners throughout American cities. This time, so I thought, the regime was committed to the illusion of “Normalcy” and the Bidenist talking point that all the madness of 2020 was a result of Trump and Trump alone, with the promise/threat that so long as Biden retained the whitehouse Americans would be permitted to pretend it was still the 1990s or early 2000s and that the economy is doing well (Of course it’s not once you adjust for how understated official inflation is compared to actual cost of living, Americans have effectively been in an economic depression for years now, it is just instead of losing 20+% of jobs, they’ve lost 20+% of what their wage buys, net real worker income is still down 20%).
They were incentivized to keep the news as boring as possible and the Quiet a little too quiet, or so I thought.
Then Biden’s campaign imploded at the debate, and it became damned clear that the default would be a second Trump Administration without drastic measures…As to whether those measures included a Letter-Agency backed assassination attempt on Trump…???

Say It Isn’t So, Joe!
This and more from Ed Driscoll: Parkinson’s disease specialist has visited the White House residence medical clinic at least nine times since July 2023.
A top Washington D.C. neurologist had a meeting with President Biden’s personal doctor at the White House earlier this year, visitor logs reviewed by The Post show.
Dr. Kevin Cannard, a Parkinson’s disease expert at Walter Reed Medical Center, met with Dr. Kevin O’Connor, and two others at the White House residence clinic on Jan. 17, according to the records, which emerge as questions continue to swirl about the 81-year-old president’s mental health in the wake of his debate debacle last week with former President Trump.
The headlines at Drudge are frantic.
Here, Tell These People Something They Don’t Know About Me
Matt Taibbi: Ding, Dong, the Witch Still Leads the Polls
What do these people imagine will happen now? Where do they believe Trump voters will go? Do they think the anger that drove his campaign in the first place will evaporate? Do they realize Trump surged ahead in all the battleground states during this trial? Don’t they see where this is headed?
No. Washington pols always see elections through a rearview mirror, imagining candidates create supporters, not vice versa. It comes from the belief that voters are sheep and have no beliefs beyond what their political betters instruct them to feel. Therefore, one controls them by controlling leaders. But Gene McCarthy didn’t surge in 1968 by convincing people to oppose the Vietnam war. Voters were there. Buchanan and Perot didn’t inspire bitterness about the loss of manufacturing jobs, the unemployed did, and Bernie Sanders in 2016 didn’t invent post-bailout blue frustration. Voters lead the way. Politicians arrive to take advantage. It’s always how it works.
The Maddows and Psakis really believe racking up a felony conviction for Trump somehow ends the story, or marks the “beginning of the end,” as the Guardian’s man-on-the-street put it. But guaranteed, it will just piss people off more.
You Can’t Cheat Father Bell Curve
[N]ew investigative reporting shows that the anti-meritocratic ideology of “diversity, equity, and inclusion” has even infiltrated some medical schools — to disastrous results.
These revelations come from the Washington Free Beacon’s Aaron Sibarium, who just published a remarkable exposé on the University of California, Los Angeles, medical school. It alleges that the university has systemically violated laws prohibiting race-based admission and held applicants of different races to wildly different standards, all in an effort to boost diversity, while instead producing incompetent and unqualified doctors.
More: Over 50% of UCLA med students failed standardized tests on family medicine, internal medicine, emergency medicine, and pediatrics.

When The FBI Does It, That Means That It’s Not Illegal
Yet Christopher Wray is still not in jail.
“The defendant’s laptop is real.” With those words and pictures like this one of Biden using crack, the Justice Department introduced the Hunter Biden laptop as evidence in his upcoming trial over federal gun violations. The federal prosecutors went on to denounce suggestions of Russian disinformation, long peddled by the Bidens, the media and former intelligence officials, as nothing more than a “conspiracy theory.”
The media eagerly spread the claim of Russian disinformation before the presidential election. Twitter and others suppressed the story. This was done through one of the most skillful disinformation campaigns in history.
It later came out that associates of the Biden campaign (including now Secretary of State Antony Blinken) pushed a long effort to get former intelligence officials to sign a letter making the claim, knowing that an ever-accommodating media would accept the claim without question or further inquiry.

“a race-socialist as opposed to a class-socialist”
A review of Paul Johnson’s “Modern Times”.
Much of what we have learned turns out to be myths. What explains the rise of rightist fascism, and how does it differ from leftist communism? According to Paul Johnson, there isn’t much difference at all, and the reason for its rise in Europe was the genuine shock, by the general population as well as by the Left itself, over the disastrous results of Lenin’s communist revolution in Russia, as much on an economic level as on a humane level. To counter the ruin and the atrocities of international socialism, the Left in Europe invented and turned to national socialism.
