Some Canucks are proposing the most drastic measure yet in the trade war with Uncle Sam – blocking US access to Canadian-owned Pornhub. The idea is the brainchild of funnyman Matthew Puzhitsky, who posted a now-viral Instagram video suggesting the X-rated offensive — calling it Canada’s “nuclear weapon.” Pornhub is the most visited in the US with more than 3 million views a month. “If Canada could ban Pornhub in the states, we win the trade war. That’s it. There is no trade war,” the Toronto stand-up comedian told The Post. A petition has since been launched urging Canadian authorities...

More than half of books banned during the last school year featured or were about people of color or members of the LGBTQ community, according to a report released Thursday. PEN America, a nonprofit group that advocates for free expression in literature, released data in the fall that found more than 10,000 instances of schools or their districts removing books from school, classrooms or curriculums last year, affecting 4,218 titles. The analysis released Thursday found that those bans disproportionately affect books about certain identities, including people of color, and also more often apply to certain genres, such as history. The...

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis drew a sharp turn away from the Trump administration Thursday by announcing that controversial online figures Andrew Tate and his brother Tristen are not welcome in Florida. A spokesperson said the brothers landed in Fort Lauderdale earlier on Thursday. DeSantis’s comments come in stark contrast to the Trump administration’s position after reports surfaced that the decision to let the brothers leave Romania was a result of President Donald Trump’s special envoy Richard Grenell who raised their case during a hallway exchange with Romanian Foreign Minister Emil Hurezeanu at the Munich Security Conference earlier this month. As...

The Supreme Court is hearing arguments in a Texas case that could have major ramifications across the country—including, perhaps, the end of anonymity online.A Texas law requiring people to provide proof of age before viewing online porn comes before the U.S. Supreme Court today.

A federal judge ruled on Monday that sections of an Arkansas law, which sought to impose criminal penalties on librarians and booksellers for distributing “harmful” material to children, were unconstitutional. The law, known as the Arkansas Act 372, was signed into law last year by Republican governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

Two sections of Act 372 subjected librarians and booksellers to jail time for distributing material that is deemed “harmful to children”. Proponents of the law, including Sanders, said the...

President Joe Biden announced on Thursday that he was granting 39 pardons and 1,499 commutations in what his administation called the “largest single-day grant of clemency in modern history.” But it’s not Thursday’s set of commutations that have caught the attention of concerned Americans — it’s those that were quietly given weeks ago to Chinese spies.X user Nick Sortor posted that “Joe Biden just pardoned multiple Chinese spies and an individual convicted of possessing child p*rnography. WHY?”But the thing is, Biden didn’t “just” commute the sentences for these criminals — he did it quietly only days before Thanksgiving.While most Americans...

NEW YORK (AP) - A former CIA software engineer charged with leaking government secrets to WikiLeaks says it’s cruel and unusual punishment that he’s awaiting trial in solitary confinement, housed in a vermin-infested cell of a jail unit where inmates are treated like “caged animals.” Joshua Schulte, 32, has asked a Manhattan federal judge to force the federal Bureau of Prisons to improve conditions at the Metropolitan Correction Center, where he has been held for over two years under highly restrictive conditions usually reserved for terrorism defendants.

Relevant section starts at 21:40 into the youtube video.The 1964 New York Times Co. vs. Sullivan was handed down as a unanimous decision of the (to conservatives, notorious) Warren Court. It was not only unanimous, but included enthusiastic concurrences by justices who wanted to go even further.In is the Sullivan decision which severely inhibits the filing of libel suits by “public figures” - emphatically including politicians. The theory of the decision basically was that politicians are big boys who can handle themselves in propaganda contests because they have political parties behind them. Scalia’s rebuttal is that “the” freedom of speech,...

To some of us, the unholy marriage of the Democratic Party and the pornography industry may seem like an obvious one, almost an inevitability, but it was still “newsworthy” that a coalition of pornography producers, distributors, and “performers” officially launched an online ad campaign urging porn-watchers to vote for Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris. The $100,000 ad campaign is based on the fear that former President Donald Trump — according to The Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, a program which Trump has repeatedly disavowed — might ban pornography and jail porn producers if he were returned to office. The ads label...

The podcast, hosted by Alex Cooper, is usually a free-flowing — and graphic — discussion of sex intended for a female audience. Harris recorded the interview during the after-effects of Hurricane Helene, which has claimed the lives of 232 people on the East Coast. “I think you and your listeners have really got this thing right, which is one of the best ways to communicate with people is to be real, you know, and to talk about the things that people really care about,” Harris told Cooper.

Drea de Matteo, who played Adriana La Cerva on The Sopranos, revealed that many people in Hollywood secretly support Donald Trump. During her interview, she said she supports Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s endorsement of Trump. “At the very moment, all I care about is fighting for this country and just trying to wake up a few more of my fellow liberals to get back to the center of things and recognize that the things they always fought for — all of that weaponization on the left — is camouflage,” de Matteo said. She then said that social issues are unimportant...
