Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Has Fled Ottawa For A “Secure Location”… |

 Weasel Zippers

"As thousands of protesters entered Ottawa, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his family were moved from their home to an undisclosed location somewhere in the city on Saturday afternoon due to security concerns, CBC reports.

"A “Freedom Convoy” of some 2,700 trucks entered the Canadian capital city of Ottawa Saturday to protest Trudeau’s COVID-19 policies, Reuters reported. According to the Independent, around 100 big rigs blockaded a main street running past the Canadian parliament building.

"The convoy, which approached the capital from all sides, began as a protest against a vaccine mandate for Canadian truckers crossing the U.S.-Canada border but grew into a wider expression of discontent with the government’s COVID-19 policies.

“These demonstrations are national in scope, they’re massive in scale,” Ottawa police chief Peter Sloly said Friday, expressing concern about the possibility of violent “lone wolf” individuals carrying out violent acts." Keep reading…

Virginia's New AG Jason Miyares DESTROYS CNN's Shameless Hack Jim Acosta Who Bizarrely Accused Him of Being a Communist

The Gateway Pundit

"There’s a new AG in Virginia and he is putting the people first.  He knows what it means to live in a communist country and is determined not to let it happen in Virginia.

"Virginia’s new Attorney General started with a bang and fired 30 corrupt attorneys on the state’s payroll and announced major investigations the moment he was sworn in.

CNN’s loathsome reporter accused the incoming Republican leaders in Virginia of being communists earlier this week.

Acosta is one of the most shameless ‘reporters’ out there.  This gas-lighting from the communist left didn’t sit well with the incoming AG in Virginia.

Redstate reported on the exchange AG  Jason Miyares had on Hannity the other night.

“I think what Jim Acosta said — listen, my family fled Communist Cuba. You want to talk about what ‘Soviet-style’ looks like? It’s the opposite of freedom,” he said. “My mother has distinct memories of being forced to take classes in Marxist-Leninism.” 

Miyares also disclosed that his uncle, Angel Miyares, had been arrested in the dark of night by now-deceased dictator Fidel Castro’s secret police and detained without due process — and that his parents later had their home “nationalized: in the name of fairness and equity.” […]

“What we have said is parents matter. Listen, if you’re a parent and you want to mask your child for six, seven, eight hours a day, you absolutely have that right. That’s your individual decision,” he said. “The great irony of all this, is in Soviet-style communist states like Cuba, the state diminishes parents. They say, ‘Your loyalty is to the state,’ and parents have less control. This is about parental empowerment.' ”. . .   Jim Acosta video

 List of Prosecutors Backed by George Soros Causing Murder and Crime to Soar

"Murder and crime have soared under district attorneys and state attorneys funded by George Soros and his affiliated foundations. Cities that have been affected by the progressive policies include Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Phoenix, St. Luis, New York, Baltimore and Orlando, and more.

The Kyle Rittenhouse trial, the Jussie Smollet hoax, the attack on the Waukesha Christmas parade, the organized mob lootings in San Francisco, and now the indictment of the Baltimore district attorney have each attracted national attention and spotlighted an issue that many in law enforcement and politics have been warning of for years: the threat of activist district attorneys (DAs).

"Specifically, the public imagination has been captured by the stories of activist DAs backed by the shadowy figure of George Soros.

"Many have heard of him, and most understand that he spends millions on U.S. politics, but very few know the specifics. As a result, Soros has become something of a folklore monster whose reputation often exceeds reality.

"But when it comes to Soros’s involvement in backing left-wing district attorneys, Soros really is the archvillain that rumor makes him out to be." . . .

Political Cartoons (townhall.com)

John McWhorter says "It’s Time to End Race-Based Affirmative Action."

How would you feel about your kids being admitted to a university because of their “diverseness” from other kids rather than, well, their selves?

Althouse  " That seems very important! Let's read:

When affirmative action was put into practice around a half-century ago, with legalized segregation so recent, it was reasonable to think of being Black as a shorthand for being disadvantaged, whatever a Black person’s socioeconomic status was.... I think a mature America is now in a position to extend the moral sophistication of affirmative action to disadvantaged people of all races or ethnicities, especially since, as a whole, Black America would still benefit substantially....

"Whether we're mature or not, the legal basis for upholding affirmative action in the higher education admissions process has been "diversity." And McWhorter attacks this concept. For one thing, his own children have led an upper-middle-class, privileged life.

And I will never forget a line from a guidebook that Black students at Harvard wrote two decades ago: “We are not here to provide diversity training for Kate and Timmy.”...

The Kid Rock–Neil Young War

 National Review

Kid Rock reminds listeners that their ire — due to feeling distant from and unrepresented by their government, the media, and other public institutions — can find justification in the Constitution.

Left: Kid Rock at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony in Brooklyn,
 Right: Neil Young performs at a tribute to Bob Dylan in Los Angeles, Calif., in 2015.

"The strongest lyric on Kid Rock’s new single “We the People” is 235 years old: “In order to form a more perfect union / Do ordain and establish this Constitution of the United States of America.”

"Nothing else on this recording is as powerful, since most of Kid Rock’s song resorts to crude profanities. But the reason why is easy to understand. On the day Kid Rock released his song, rock-music veteran Neil Young publicly threatened Spotify with an ultimatum: Either remove its broadcast of the political commentator and comedian Joe Rogan, or he’d remove his music from its streaming service. It’s enough to make a true rock and roller revolt.

"But the synchronicity is a jolt. “We the People” challenges rock-music orthodoxy, specifically the authoritarian stances taken by famous, established rock stars such as Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, and the Rolling Stones, who no longer behave like the counterculture figures they once seemed.

"In this sudden ideological skirmish, Kid Rock wants to reclaim populism and protest against Young’s imperious assertion of authority and limited expression.

Kid Rock’s unabashed vulgarity forsakes the education and eloquence of the Founding Fathers but no less than congressional rule-breaking currently does. That’s because “We the People” — words taken from the preamble of the Constitution — is based on the widespread working-class anger that the "Constitution is routinely flouted by the people who have sworn to defend it. The anger has been mounting since the Covid lockdowns, yet mainstream media vilifies it.". . .

Biden to Announce Black Female SCOTUS Nominee During Black History Month | CNSNews

“The person I will nominate will be someone with extraordinary qualifications, character, experience and integrity, and that person will be the first black woman ever nominated to the United States Supreme Court.

4 issues that could come up in a Ketanji Brown Jackson confirmation fight

"The news that we’ll have a vacancy on the Supreme Court is a little over 24 hours old, but there’s already arguably a favorite: U.S. Appeals Court Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson. In fact, Jackson has the distinction of perhaps having been the favorite before this vacancy ever came up.". . .

"It’s not clear at this point how much resistance Republicans would put up to her nomination, given it won’t change the balance of power on the court and Democrats have the necessary 50 votes.

"But as with any such pick, it’s worth looking at any potential hurdles she might face. While both of her confirmations were relatively amicable affairs, Republicans have isolated a few things that could come up.

The Big Lie of Biden’s ‘Black Woman’ Court Promise

There is a reason for this. The Democrats are — and always have been — the Party of Race. Founded by slave owners, run by segregationists and now those who are into the son of segregation known as identity politics, using racism to win votes is what they do. 

 The American Spectator   "The Justice Stephen Breyer retirement announcement hits the headlines, and the media and Democrats are gushing over a Biden promise. To wit: he will nominate a “black woman” to Breyer’s Court seat.

"Let’s be clear. What’s about to unfold is decidedly not about nominating a black woman. To refresh, recall the case of Clarence Thomas.

"In June of 1991, Justice Thurgood Marshall announced he was retiring from the Supreme Court. Justice Marshall had been an appointee of Democrat President Lyndon Johnson — and notably was the first black to sit on the Court.

"Thus it was that the moment Marshall announced his retirement the New York Times was writing that Republican President George H. W. Bush was now under “pressure to appoint a black justice.” Indeed he was. With that, he turned to the young Federal Appeals Court Judge Clarence Thomas, a black man, for the nomination. And in a blink the American Left and Democrats went crazy.

"Former Bush Vice President Dan Quayle, writing in his memoirs Standing Firm, said the moment the Thomas Nomination was announced:

[W]e knew that the long knives of “political correctness” were being sharpened for use against this strong, independent man who did not fit the liberals’ idea of what a black jurist — in fact, any black man — should stand for. 

… But the forces lining up against Thomas were considerable, and the nature and rhetoric of their opposition was sometimes almost sickening. (Washington Post African-American) Columnist Carl Rowan said that “if you gave Thomas a little flour on his face, you’d think you had [KKK leader] David Duke talking.” A leader from the (leftist) National Organization for Women said, “We’re going to ‘Bork’ him. We need to kill him politically,” while one black (Democrat) Congressman declared that “a black conservative is a contradiction in terms.” . . .

Democrats declare, Chicago schools training says sex 'not rooted in biology,' tells teachers to hide gender pronouns from parents

 Yahoo   "Chicago Public Schools mandated a teacher training program that declared sex a social construct and threatened punishment if faculty didn't use students' preferred pronouns, multiple teachers told Fox News Digital.

"A 104-slide PowerPoint presentation echoed a number of left-leaning talking points that have surfaced in trainings across the country. Titled "Supporting Transgender, Nonbinary, and Gender Nonconforming Students" the presentation argued that "everyone has multiple, overlapping identities" and that sex is assigned at birth.

" 'Gender & sex are socially constructed, meaning they've been created and enforced by the people in a society," one slide from the presentation reads. The notes claim that "the concepts of Gender and Sex are actually not rooted in biology. Instead, they are socially constructed, which means they have been created and enforced by people in a society.". . .
