Canada has joined a global movement aiming to halt financing to oil and gas. To understand what that really means, watch the fine print

Excerpt:

Of all the recipients of Canadian government support in recent years, Petroleos Mexicanos (Pemex) ranks among the strangest. Export Development Canada, a Crown corporation, provided 19 loans to Mexico’s state-owned oil company over 15 years, totalling somewhere between $3-billion and $5.7-billion (EDC only discloses ranges, not precise amounts). The Indian Oil Company received somewhere between $190-million and $425-million. Petrobras, Brazil’s state-owned oil company, got at least $1-billion.

State-owned enterprises control most of the world’s oil reserves and are heavily supported by their own governments, so their need for Canada’s money wasn’t obvious. EDC’s objective was to entice…

New NYC Law Allows Noncitizens To Vote In Watershed Moment

Excerpt:

 

NEW YORK (AP) — More than 800,000 noncitizens and “Dreamers” in New York City will have access to the ballot box — and could vote in municipal elections as early as next year — after Mayor Eric Adams allowed legislation to automatically become law Sunday.

Opponents have vowed to challenge the new law, which the City Council approved a month ago. Unless a judge halts its implementation, New York City is the first major U.S. city to grant widespread municipal voting rights to noncitizens.

More than a dozen communities across the U.S. already allow noncitizens to cast ballots in local elections, including 11 towns in Maryland and two in Vermont.

Noncitizens still wouldn’t be able to vote for president or members of Congress in federal races, or in the state elections that pick the governor, judges and legislators.

The Board of Elections must now begin drawing an implementation plan by July, including voter registration rules and provisions that would create separate ballots…

PORTSMOUTH, Va. (AP) — The city of Portsmouth will pay a Virginia state senator $300,0000 under a settlement in a lawsuit the senator filed after she was charged with damaging a Confederate monument during a 2020 protest.

Portsmouth police charged Sen. Louise Lucas and several others with conspiracy to commit a felony and injury to a monument in excess of $1,000 after a protest that drew hundreds of people to a local Confederate monument. The heads of Confederate statues were ripped off and one statue was pulled down, critically injuring a demonstrator.

Two months later, former Portsmouth police Chief Angela Greene announced felony criminal charges against Lucas and 18 others, including NAACP leaders, public defenders and a Portsmouth School Board member.

A judge later dismissed all charges in the case. Greene was fired the same day.

Lucas served Greene and the police officer who filed charges against her with the $6.75 million lawsuit in November 2021, alleging malicious…

A former Iranian official who is a faculty member at Princeton University recently bragged in an interview about how his hardline government’s death threats against a former top Trump administration official had him and his family “trembling” with fear.

Hussein Mousavian, a former member of Iran’s nuclear negotiating team who works as a Middle East security and nuclear policy specialist at Princeton University, said in a recent interview that the Iranian regime’s threats to murder Brian Hook, the Trump administration’s special envoy for Iran, have heavily impacted Hook’s family life.

“I went to America and an American told me that Brian Hook’s wife can’t sleep, she cries and trembles, she told Brian, ‘They’ll kill you,’ since Hook was a partner in the death of Haj Qassem [Soleimani], that’s how much they were trembling,” Mousavian said, referring to Iran’s vow to kill Hook for his role in the Trump administration’s drone strike that killed Iranian…

The new year comes with new year’s resolutions. People say they are going to lose weight, quit smoking, or do some “new year, new me” crap like try to be a better person. Rand Paul has a resolution, and it’s to quit Big Tech. The leftist weirdos who decide what “facts” get “checked” and what squeaks past their algorithms have made it clear that anything to the right of Karl Marx or Anthony Fauci is problematic. See: Rogan, Joseph. Senator Paul has decided he’s out, and he’s starting with YouTube.

YouTube was an easy one to quit, especially when Sen. Paul has had issues with them in 2020. The Senator wrote about his reasoning in the Washington Examiner.

“Any time I state that cloth masks do not stop the virus from spreading, as [studies say], YouTube deletes the video. […] When I gave a speech on the Senate floor asking whether Eric Ciaramella, the Vindman brothers, and Adam Schiff’s legal team conspired while working at the White House to impeach the president, YouTube chose to…

80 Percent of Gene-Screen Abortions Tests Are False

Gene Test Abortion Screens Wrong 8/10 Times, Report Reveals

Abortion-Backing Nets Ignore NYT Report Gene Tests Wrong Up to 93%

In a heartbreaking report out on Saturday, The New York Times detailed how prenatal blood tests for genetic defects used in some cases to justify an abortion were wrong between 81 and 93 percent of the time, as the companies boast near-perfect results. But the pro-abortion advocates in the liberal broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) didn’t want their viewers to know that terrible statistic.

And since the broadcast networks didn’t want to cover the story on their flagship newscasts, that left Fox News Channel to inform the public more broadly. “Prenatal genetic testing pushed on thousands of moms-to-be every year, but a stunning new report from The New York Times suggests the results could be wrong more often than not,America Reports co-host John Roberts announced on Monday.

“Accuracy, obviously, is vital because these tests results can determine if the pregnancy is terminated or if a child is born or not,” correspondent William La Jeunesse followed up. “But…

Excerpt:

American activists are appealing to Tesla Inc. to close a new showroom in China’s northwestern region of Xinjiang, where officials are accused of abuses against mostly Muslim ethnic minorities.

Tesla on Friday announced the opening of its showroom in Urumqi, the Xinjiang capital, and said on its Chinese social media account, “Let’s start Xinjiang’s all-electric journey!”

The Council on American-Islamic Relations, an American organization based in Washington, D.C., on Monday urged Tesla and its chairman, Elon Musk, to close the showroom and “cease what amounts to economic support for genocide.”

A public-funded university, the University of Memphis, is using those same public funds to pay college professors as much as $3,000 a class to pollute their teaching with anti-American wokism designed by privileged white professors and funded and enforced by billionaires and their international, unaccountable corporations for the purpose of destroying the Bill of Rights values of Americans so that corporations can more easily directly control us.

Of course, the DNC, the party, the new nation these collaborators and co-seditionists are ultimately building, is fully welcoming of an international corporate tyranny that forces DNC values on all Americans, in every part of every life where corporations control our sustainability.

Wokism, CRT, Social Justice, whatever you want to call the vehicle of power the DNC and its corporate collaborators is using, is a direct assault on the very notion of due process, rule of law, of a government bounded by the rights of its citizens, of a government OF the people, the whole people, equally, not diminished according to identity.
Wokism demands guilt first, with no hope of innocence, for no trial would be allowed, lest they platform undesirable opinions. Wokism, CRT, DNCism, is a direct assault on equality and justice, the very words it hides its racism and bigotry behind.

Wokism is violence and hate and sedition against the American way of life, a Bill of Rights Life, and the University of Memphis, funded by American tax dollars, is attempting to pay its professors to push that hatred and sedition into the hearts of our children, and it does so with impunity, in the land of the fleeing, it would seem.

But their time is short, for today’s technological reality of power heavily favors individuals and small-scall free associations. They hold on so desperately, using any debased morality code they can, so long as it keeps us from seeing the true reality of power.

It is better for our children to grow hating and shaming themselves for identities than to realize 3D printers and mesh networks and private currencies are making it possible for us to build right where we are, and to build in new places the power to reject the attempts by the DNC and its corporate collaborators to overthrow the American Republic and replace it with the DNC state, where children grow to hate their parents and desperately seek approval from strangers in authority.

Public University Offers Professors Cash To Go Woke

A public Tennessee university is offering professors financial incentives for “infusing” social justice into their classes.

The University of Memphis told faculty they could collect a $3,000 stipend for redesigning their curricula to align with the university’s commitment to “diversity, equity, inclusion, and social justice,” according to an email sent to all faculty obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. The offer is part of the university’s “Eradicating Systemic Racism and Promoting Social Justice Initiative.”

Interested faculty are asked to submit a copy of syllabi to be reworked as well as a 500-word “narrative” on their “diversity, equity, and inclusion philosophy” and how the new lessons will “address disparities” in their subject area.

The University of Memphis’s offer is part of a growing trend on college campuses, where…

South Africa Suggest Omicron a Hype Train

While many parts of America prepare to shut down over the spreading threat of Omicron, South African numbers, where Omicron appears to have originated, suggest the hype might not nearly be met by the actual threat, as Omicron appears to be significantly less harmful to humans than the Delta variant is.

South Africa study suggests lower risk of hospitalization with Omicron, but will other countries see the same?

From www.cbsnews.com
2021-12-22 16:53:34

Excerpt:

 

London – People infected with the Omicron variant of the coronavirus may face less risk of severe illness and hospitalization than those who catch Delta, a new study out of South Africa, which has not yet been peer reviewed, said Wednesday. But scientists warned that the findings could be a result of high levels of population immunity in South Africa due to previous coronavirus infections, and not an indication that Omicron is less severe.

The study found that people in South Africa who were diagnosed with Omicron between October 1 and November 30 were 80% less likely to be hospitalized than those diagnosed with another variant during that period. Once in the hospital during that period, however, the patients — no matter which variant they were diagnosed with — were just as likely to develop severe disease.

But compared to patients who were hospitalized with Delta between April and November, those hospitalized with Omicron in October and November were 70% less likely to…
