Canadian police on horseback trampled peaceful protests in Ottawa Friday. Among those injured was an elderly woman using a walker. The video below is reminiscent of the Gestapo tactics of Birmingham Police Chief Bull Connor. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has turned law enforcement into jack-booted thugs. Police are no longer on the side of the Canadian people. Caution, the videos below are graphic.

The Democrats hate America. They hate our cops, our military, and our liberty. They sell us out to Communist China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea. They are a force for bad and have exposed themselves as the frauds they really are.

Fox News national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin told her co-hosts Friday on “The Five” that the Biden administration is not overhyping the possibility Russia will invade Ukraine to draw attention away from special counsel John Durham’s investigation. Greg Gutfeld said, “There’s something else going on here that is–that feels very, very manufactured. And I don’t know what it is.” Kennedy said, “I know what it is. It’s Jake Sullivan.” She continued, “Jake Sullivan is the national security adviser. And he is in deep yogurt in the Durham probe, and he’s been the one saying, ‘We have so much intelligence an...

If Justin Trudeau had merely removed trucks from blocking a bridge in protest of vaccine mandates, it would be no big deal. Protesters for various causes routinely get removed from blocking traffic. But that’s not all Justin Trudeau did. He suspended civil liberties in Canada, targeting peaceful protesters and anyone who supports them. Not because those supporters committed a crime, but because they supported the political opposition to Trudeau’s government. Trudeau ordered all financial institutions to freeze the assets of his political opposition without court order and with full immunity from liability, and no financial asset was spared. “The names...

A newly discovered document from March 1991 shows US, UK, French, and German officials discussing a pledge made to Russia that NATO will not expand to Poland and beyond. Its publication by the German magazine Der Spiegel on Friday proves Moscow right and NATO wrong on the matter. The minutes of a March 6, 1991 meeting in Bonn between political directors of the foreign ministries of the US, UK, France, and Germany contain multiple references to “2+4” talks on German unification in which the West made it “clear” to the Soviet Union that NATO will not expand past the eastern...

Students shouting "Buzz off Bigot" and "We believe in science" greeted former Vice President Mike Pence as he arrived at Stanford University for an event called "How to Save America From the Woke Left." The second-in-command for the administration of former President Donald Trump took aim at high gas prices, vaccine mandates, cancel culture and "critical race theory" as he delivered his speech to a packed crowd at Stanford's Dinkelspiel Auditorium. Dozens of protesters gathered outside waving signs that read "resist fascism" and "your hate is not welcome," according to social media accounts. "We are the woke left!" protesters taunted...

Nothing to see here. Just an inebriated Gen Xer throwing out another lost hit from the 80s.

MENDHAM, NJ — New Jersey’s former governor weighed in about its current one, Mendham resident Chris Christie describing Gov. Phil Murphy as a “stubborn guy” who “doesn’t want to admit he was wrong to have the masks on for this long.”

Chambers had previously (10 days ago) petitioned the mayor in a letter, urging her to work within the law. She failed to take action until personally faced with Chambers’ federal civil lawsuit. His much-publicized lawsuit was filed at 2:00 p.m today, and Mayor Wu caved at 7:00 p.m. It Only Took Five Hours. It only took five hours for the novice mayor who has repeatedly made misguided steps to lift her mandate. Wu is learning that harassment of police officers, teachers, and first line responders with unlawful mandates and the general harassment of businesses and taxpayers does not come without...

Chinese state media mockingly commemorated Wednesday as “Invasion Day,” the day U.S. President Joe Biden and some of his top officials allegedly predicted Russia would launch an all-out invasion of Ukraine. The Chinese jeered that while Biden anticipated the thunder of guns, the only sound to be heard along the Ukrainian border was a hype bubble popping. China’s state-run Global Times wrote a sarcastic editorial that treated February 16 as a pivotal date in history the world could “learn” from, but not for the reasons advanced by the Biden administration: The world has once again witnessed the shamelessness and absurdity...
