Canada is now governed by absurdism, and it is symptomatic of an ailing Western elite.Liberal Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau last week invoked martial law to arrest and financially destroy truckers on the charge that their largely peaceful protests are “dismantling the Canadian economy” that had already been dismantled for two years under some of the most draconian lockdowns in the world. The trucker “sect,” Trudeau added, is guilty of felonious “unacceptable views.” But his rhetoric still cannot square the circle of demonizing vital workers while conceding he cannot run his country without them. He has invoked the Emergencies Act for the first time in the law’s 34-year history,

“Let Freedom Roll” is the slogan of “The People’s Convoy” set to depart Wednesday morning from Adelanto, California, on its way to Washington, DC, to protest federal coronavirus mandates and call for an end to President Joe Biden’s emergency declaration.Convoy organizers Marcus Sommers and Maureen Steele spoke to Breitbart News about their “peaceful” transcontinental movement to “defend our freedom” at a time when “our freedom is on the line and tyranny closing in.”“The freedom to choose is what our country is founded on, what our military has fought for, and died for, and bled for, and sacrificed everything,”
Two Kremlin-backed banks and the sons of three of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s cronies are among the first targets of US sanctions for what President Joe Biden on Tuesday called “the beginning of a Russian invasion of Ukraine.”Biden announced the punitive financial measures after Putin ordered his country’s military to “perform peacekeeping functions” in two breakaway regions of eastern Ukraine.The sanctions prevent the VEB and PSB banks from doing business in the US, cut off their access to the US financial system and freeze any assets under American jurisdiction.The targeted “elites” — who the Treasury Department suspects of “participating in the Russian regime’s kleptocracy” — are blocked from
As if it weren’t bad enough for Pelosi that the far-left tack of the Democrats under Biden’s “leadership” has reinvigorated what might have been a deflated conservative movement post-2020, now internal Democrat polling is showing that Democrats are struggling with even swing voters, many of whom are ditching them as conditions get worse and worse under Biden and the left gets crazier and crazier. As SFGate reported, internal DCCC polling has found that the majority of voters in many districts, particularly the formerly competitive ones that Democrats are focusing upon

They were as dumb as a bag of hammers,’ Meister, 53, said.‘They wanted to take my booking photograph, but I had to wait for several minutes because they were having issues with the “mug shot board.”

While Senate Republican leaders have so far followed a hands-off policy plan for the midterms, Sen. Rick Scott is forging ahead with his own platform for the GOP if they retake Congress next year. The first-term Florida Republican and chair of the National Republican Senatorial Committee released an 11-point plan through Politico on Tuesday. 'Americans deserve to know what we will do when given the chance to govern,' he said. The agenda includes a mix of classic Republican priorities - shrinking the federal government and enacting national voter ID laws - and culture war measures, such as declaring that there are 'two genders,'
MSNBC “Morning Joe” co-host on Tuesday suggested President Joe Biden’s strategy and handling of the escalating tensions between Ukraine and Russia have been “inadequate” and not “strong enough.”Brzezinski cited foreign policy expert Michael McFaul and Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) describing Russia entering the two separatist territories in eastern Ukraine as an “invasion.” She questioned if the troops entering Ukraine made the possibility for a “full-scale invasion” inevitable.“[I] just want to ask you, would you describe the Biden strategy so far as passive deterrence, with the centerpiece of economic sanctions really as the focal point?

Following Russia ordering troops into two Ukrainian territories Monday, a 2019 video of then-presidential candidate Joe Biden circulated showing Biden promising that when he becomes president, he would end Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “days of tyranny” and intimidation.
“Once again, Putin and the Russians are trying to engage in our elections and decide who the president’s going to be,” Biden said in a 2019 fundraising ad. “This time I’m the object of their attention. Because Putin knows if I am president of the United States, his days of tyranny and trying to intimidate the United States and those in Eastern Europe are over.”

Albuquerque, N.M.—Federal officials have come up with a list of potential replacement names for hundreds of geographic features in three dozen states that include the word “squaw,” kicking off a public comment period that will run through late April. U.S. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland in November formally declared the term derogatory and initiated a process to remove the word from use by the federal government and to replace other existing derogatory place names. Haaland said in a statement Tuesday that words matter, particularly as the agency works to make the nation’s public lands and waters accessible and welcoming to people of all backgrounds.
The Russian invasion of eastern Ukraine has finally happened and now the Trump haters who tried to impeach President Trump over Ukraine have much to answer for.
Looking at you, Alexander Vindman. Looking at you, Alexandra and Andrea Chalupa. Looking at you, Fiona Hill.

After all, the Russia invasion didn't happen on Trump's watch as they plotted and schemed against him instead of did their jobs.

It all played out in a host country engaged in human rights atrocities that was also the origin site of a global pandemic.

President Biden will announce Tuesday a series of public and private-sector investments to extract minerals such as cobalt, lithium and graphite that are needed for electric vehicles and other aspects of the global shift toward a “clean energy economy,” the White House said. The administration expects demand for these minerals to spike 400-600% generally and demand for minerals used in electric vehicles to jump 6,000% over the next several decades. Mr. Biden is fearful the U.S. is too dependent on China so he will trumpet new investments after ordering a review of the supply chain a year ago. “Critical minerals provide the building blocks for many modern technologies
