Crisis for Canadian Jewry

Because this is precisely where Canada is going. Historically, Canada has been behind Europe on antisemitism by a generation, but the pace at which it is gaining momentum is now catching up. The same forces that have harmed France and the United Kingdom are now entrenched in Canada: radicalized academic environments, media that demonize Israel and downplay antisemitism, politicians pressured to appease extremists, and a Jewish community that, even as it grows more alarmed, is still unwilling to confront the reality of the threat.

The director of the National Security Agency, Air Force Gen. Timothy Haugh, reportedly was fired Thursday from his post as the head of the agency.
Haugh’s removal as director of the NSA, the nation’s primary cyber espionage and electronic eavesdropping agency, comes on the same day at least three White House National Security Council staffers reportedly also were shown the door.
The ousted NSA director’s civilian deputy, Wendy Noble, was also let go Thursday, according to the Washington Post, citing current and former US officials.

President Trump signed an executive order Wednesday closing a trade loophole on cheap goods from China that were previously exempt from tariffs.
Trump, 78, argued that the so-called “de minimus” exception allowed shippers from the People’s Republic and Hong Kong to “hide illicit substances” in packaging and products.
“These shippers often avoid detection due to administration of the de minimis exemption,” the president wrote, claiming that duty-free exports from China “play a significant role in the synthetic opioid crisis in the United States.” Packages subject to de minimus treatment are valued at less than $800.

term: AP sources 3 replies
The Justice Department quietly decided in the final weeks of the Biden administration not to prosecute Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, effectively ending the corruption investigation that cast a long shadow over the political career of a close ally of President Donald Trump, The Associated Press has learned.
The decision not to bring charges — which has never been publicly reported — resolved the high-stakes federal probe before Trump’s new Justice Department leadership could even take action on an investigation sparked by allegations from Paxton’s inner circle that the Texas Republican abused his office to aid a political donor.
Vice President JD Vance said Thursday he isn’t going to “shy away” from the short-term pain the Trump administration’s sweeping “Liberation Day” tariffs could potentially have on Americans — but insisted the US needed a “big change.”
“We cannot keep going down the Joe Biden globalist pathway where we have $2 trillion of peacetime debt and deficits. We have manufacturing disappearing,” Vance told Fox News’ “Fox & Friends.” “That is not working for Americans. We’ve got to take this country in a different direction.”
“Yes, this is a big change. I’m not going to shy away from it, but we needed a big change,” he added.

Hungary said Thursday it will begin the procedure of withdrawing from the world’s only permanent global tribunal for war crimes and genocide.
“Hungary will withdraw from the International Criminal Court,” Gergely Gulyás, who is Prime Minister Viktor Orbán chief of staff wrote in a brief statement. “The government will initiate the withdrawal procedure on Thursday, in accordance with the constitutional and international legal framework.”
The announcement came as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived in the Hungarian capital, Budapest, despite an international arrest warrant against him over his conduct of the war in the Gaza Strip.
Jihadists are murdering, raping, torturing, kidnapping, enslaving, and, in some instances, burning people alive — across Africa, and now in Syria.
Local jihadist organizations go by different names, but the ideology that drives them is the same: Every one of them deeply believes that Allah wants him to wipe the world clean of the kuffar (infidels).
More than 16.2 million Christians in Sub-Saharan Africa have been driven from their homes by jihadi violence and conflict, reports the human rights organization Open Doors.

Roger Severino sued then-President Joe Biden in 2021 for dismissing him before the end of his term on an independent agency called the Administrative Conference of the United States.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit’s decision against Severino laid the groundwork for the court’s decision on Friday that President Donald Trump can fire holdover Biden appointees at “independent agencies.”
The appeals court paused a U.S. District Court’s orders restoring fired members of the National Labor Relations Board and Merit Systems Protection Board to their jobs
When historians look back to tell the story of the MAGA revolution, where will they begin? The obvious moment is when Trump descended that golden escalator and declared he would seek the presidency.
But that’s not the real beginning—at least according to Free Press columnist Matthew Continetti. He was there, among the nerdy intellectuals whose names would still be obscure to many of us, as they articulated the ideas that Trump would take up—and use to fundamentally transform the GOP.
Their ideas—of economic protectionism, immigration restrictionism, and nationalism—have not just challenged the traditional conservatism movement and Republican Party. They have fully replaced it.
Israel's complete jurisdiction over Area C, which legally includes building permits, zoning, construction, law enforcement and planning, was recognized and agreed to by the Palestinian leadership and the world at large for almost three decades. As stipulated in the agreement, only when direct negotiations determine the permanent fate of the territories that had illegally been occupied by Jordan until 1967, can the Oslo Accords be replaced. Until then, it is the law.
First, they fabricated a name for this illegal encampment to make it appear "historic": "Khan al Ahmar." From there, they complained to the media that this destitute group of Arabs were being threatened with supposed "crimes against humanity":

Schiff said, “Well, today as you know, we saw the case, the corruption case against the mayor of New York dismissed with prejudice. That means that case can never be brought again. It wasn’t dismissed because of a lack of evidence.
One of former President Joe Biden’s senior aides admitted in a new book that the 82-year-old couldn’t grasp the back and forth of debate and would fall asleep by the pool while they prepped for his showdown with Trump, according to a book excerpt.

While they prepped, Klain reportedly told Whipple that the then 81-year-old president “didn’t know what Trump had been saying

The European Union is considering levying a $1 billion fine against Elon Musk’s X, alleging that the social media company has violated its law against disinformation and illicit content, The New York Times reported.
Along with the hefty fine, the E.U. would also demand that X make changes to its product, according to the Times, which cited “four people with knowledge of the plans.” If the E.U. moves forward, it would be the first fine imposed by the body using its Digital Services Act (DSA). The DSA “regulates online intermediaries and platforms … to prevent illegal and harmful activities online and the spread of disinformation.”
Hamas is ready to release all remaining 59 hostages in Gaza in exchange for a permanent cease-fire with Israel, Palestinian officials said.
As Israel ramps up its military campaign in Gaza, the terror group told negotiators it was prepared to free all its hostages so long as it gets assurance that Jerusalem will withdraw all its forces, a senior Palestinian official told the Times of Israel.
It remains to be seen if the proposal will be accepted, as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has long rejected any deal that does not include Hamas’ complete defeat, including demilitarization and its permanent exit from Gaza.
