From the streets in Ottawa, we learned how essential the COVID-19 vaccine mandate is – for those who hold the real power. Governments may back down on masking and distancing, but they will hold onto the vaccine mandate tenaciously. It is the key to the intense surveillance needed to control the lives of everyone, on the pretext of protecting us all from a dread disease. Get the shot, or lose your job and eventually your ability to buy or sell. Comply, or else freeze to death or starve. The Canadian truckers convoy was at first about forcing truckers to get...

The escalating Russian aggression in Ukraine should serve as a vivid reminder of the global threat posed not only by Moscow but also by any countries that seek to align themselves with Putin for the sake of undermining Western interests and challenging the existing world order. While the United States, Britain, and the European Union develop their strategies for averting war while also pressuring Russia to withdraw forces from Donetsk and Luhansk, they must not lose sight of the fact that other Russian forces recently coordinated with Iran and China for naval exercises in the Indian Ocean, thus signaling the...

CNN Business)The standoff between the United States and Russia over the conflict in Ukraine has so far mainly played out on diplomatic and economic fronts. But now, as Russia invades Ukraine and the United States imposes new sanctions on Russia, there are concerns that may change. The US government is on high alert for the possibility of the conflict spilling over into cyberspace, where Russia has shown an ability to cause significant disruption and damage in the past. On Tuesday, a senior FBI cyber official warned US businesses and local governments that they should be vigilant against potential ransomware attacks,...

The retirement of Justice Stephen Breyer gives resident Biden a significant opportunity to leave a true legacy upon the nation. As Biden begins his interview process, it is clear he is committed to appointing a far-left ideologue to replace Breyer. However, this effort will not impact the current ideological divide on the high court or the chance to reverse Roe v. Wade. Breyer, when appointed by Clinton in 1994, was applauded by both Republicans and Democrats as a centrist who would not fit into a particular ideological camp. This did not turn out to be the case. During his tenure,...

History will remember Ruth Bader Ginsburg as a leader, fearless, and trailblazing. She truly was an inspiration. Yet Donald Trump rushed to REPLACE her with a THIRD arch-conservative on the Supreme Court just weeks before the election. It was a DISGRACE to her memory!! That’s why we’re collecting 75,000 signatures today to honor Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s AMAZING legacy by demanding “DONALD TRUMP STATE PARK” be renamed to “RUTH BADER GINSBURG STATE PARK”.

A new vaccine manufactured in Europe by Sanofi and GSK claims 100% efficacy against severe disease and hospitalizations, and it could be an effective booster after other COVID-19 shots, according to the manufacturers. The companies received billions of dollars from Donald Trump’s brainchild, “Operation Warp Speed.” Since Biden isn’t calling it that anymore, how are they going to describe where the money came from? The two-shot Sanofi-GSK vaccine is expected to be approved by the FDA for emergency use in next few weeks.New York Times:In laboratory studies, two doses of the Sanofi-GSK vaccine stimulated the production of more neutralizing antibodies...

Global markets sold off sharply Thursday following Russia President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of neighboring Ukraine, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average futures down about 800 points in pre-market trading. American markets followed those overseas, with Germany’s Dax off 4.8% and Asia’s Hang Seng index off by 3.2%. The drop in the Dow follows Wednesday’s 465-point slide as investors came to grip with the reality that Putin would not be swayed from undertaking what he termed “a special military operation” in Ukraine. There were reports of explosions and other military activity in the capital of Kyiv and other cities as Russian...

Overall, 27 seizure orders were issued to large truck operators from outside Ontario, banning them from operating any commercial motor vehicle within the province.

Former National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster on Thursday reacted to Russia’s escalated invasion of Ukraine. McMaster warned on CBS’s “Mornings” that Russian President Vladimir Putin will continue to escalate until he “is met with strength.”

The State Department issued a security alert early Thursday morning reminding Americans in Ukraine that the United States will not be helping citizens evacuate. The announcement to “remain vigilant and take appropriate steps to increase their security awareness” echoes the Biden administration’s response to the chaos in Afghanistan when the Taliban took over last year. “The U.S. government will not be able to evacuate U.S. citizens from Ukraine,” the warning read. “Know the location of your closest shelter or protected space,” the department told Americans. Tulsi Gabbard: Russia’s Attack on Ukraine ‘Could Have Easily Been Avoided’ by Biden “In the...

The Biden administration debacle in Afghanistan has convinced America’s enemies of the administration’s weakness and vulnerability. The timing of Vladimir Putin’s march on Ukraine is undoubtedly connected to the perception in Moscow of Washington’s lack of will to engage in a confrontation. Communist China is astutely waiting for the right time to seize Taiwan. Should Moscow achieve its objectives, Xi Jinping, China’s dictator would follow Putin’s example and act, knowing full well that the Biden administration would pay lip service to the violation of Taiwanese sovereignty, and perhaps demand UN sanctions, but ultimately, Washington would live with the new...

Russia launched an attack on Ukraine by land, air and sea in the early hours of Thursday, Ukraine local time, after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a “special military operation.” Putin said the operation seeks to defend Moscow against what he alleged were threats from Ukraine, and to protect civilians and demilitarize Ukraine. Within hours of Putin’s announcement, the Russian military claimed to have incapacitated all of Ukraine’s air defenses and air bases. Ukraine’s leadership said at least 40 people had been killed so far in what it called a “full-scale war,” with multiple cities and bases targeted with airstrikes...

Sheriff Michael Chapman of Loudoun County, Va. got an unpleasant surprise recently from Old Joe Biden’s handlers. On Thursday, the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office (LCSO) published a press release that reveals the truly astonishing extent of the administration’s high-handedness, dishonesty, carelessness, and recklessness in its resettlement of Afghan refugees in cities and towns all over the United States. Without any prior warning, Loudoun County officials were told that 2,000 Afghan refugees would be arriving in the county in just over two weeks and that 2,000 more would be arriving every month after that through September. In what will come...

VIDEOS AT LINK..................... Live from Ukraine: Traffic jams, no fuel, panic on the streets Interviews with Kiev residents

After weeks of feints, offers to negotiate, threats, and counter-threats, Vladimir Putin has put the question to the West by creating facts on the ground. On Monday he ordered Russian troops to enter the eastern Ukraine Donbas region where in 2014-15 he helped ethnic Russian separatists seize a territorial enclave. He has also created two puppet states which he has promised “friendship and mutual assistance,” and he is sending them “peacekeepers” to defend the new nations, and perhaps expand their territory beyond what they already hold. So far, the West has responded with bluster and economic sanctions that are...

In my book Hitler’s National Socialism, I examine the German dictator’s social and economic policy goals. What social, economic, and political objectives was he pursuing? Against previously accepted opinion, Hitler attached great importance to the social question. He wanted to solve the social question by improving the chances of advancement for workers, by increasing social mobility. He was, my analysis of numerous public and private statements made between 1920 and 1944 demonstrates, a vehement proponent of “equal opportunity,” which, like all of his social and economic objectives, however, was only to be realized within the Volksgemeinschaft (German national community). Anyone...

Richard L. Cravatts, Ph.D., a Freedom Center Journalism Fellow in Academic Free Speech and President Emeritus of Scholars for Peace in the Middle East, is the author of Dispatches From the Campus War Against Israel and Jews. On January 24th, the Supreme Court agreed to hear a case, Fair Admissions v. Harvard University, which not only has some profound implications for the future of affirmative action in college admissions, but also raises again a troublesome and ignoble part of Harvard’s history with Jewish applicants early in the 20th century. At issue in the case is the accusation that Harvard discriminates...

The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health, is a devastating 445-page exposé some readers might find intimidating. Fortunately, the book also works as a thriller, with author Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on the trail of a dangerous criminal. “Dealing with Tony Fauci is like dealing with organized crime,” Dr. Jonathan Fishbein tells Kennedy. “He’s like the Godfather. He has connections everywhere. He’s always got people that he’s giving money to in powerful positions to make sure he gets his way, that he gets what he wants.” The National Institute of...
