    1. hey joe, he’s a liberal entitled to his entitlements. we peasants/pissants have no say in the matter other than to vote to give them even more.

      1. I can’t think of any higher calling than to be a citizen and to pay for his comfort with my taxes. Ensuring his joy is my sole reason for existence in this country. (sarcasm = off)

    2. Joe, I abhor Government overspending as much as anyone but I also dislike misleading headlines/information in the media.

      The editors of this post, chose to give only partial view of the invoices, and in several cases, the quantities and prices of each item (waffles, hot towels, etc.) were conveniently whited out which means we only see the final tally not how many of each item were actually ordered. Also, with catering, you pre-order and pay for everything you order, not what you consume.

      However, it does make $16 orange juice seem like a bargain.

  1. Hiya Kate et al.
    I think it is time for the world to accept that we are not in a Wuhan Flu pandemic. Wuhan Flu is now endemic. That implies an entirely different approach. Because it is endemic, it cannot be contained. Infections are inevitable. A lot of people who haven’t had it yet will, with a high degree of certainty, get it. Lockdowns only delay the inevitable. News stories about people getting re-infected imply that there is limited potential for herd immunity. Vaccines generally rely on an immune response. If you can get re-infected, the immune response drops off over time. So vaccine efficacy will drop off over time. The virus is also mutating. Even an effective vaccine will not necessarily be effective against a mutation. We need to accept that we must learn to live with this disease and all that implies. The most important implication is we need to get back to some semblance of normal. Unfortunately, the news media have scared the bejeezus out of a lot of people. Makes it very hard for a politician to admit defeat and accept the inevitable.

    1. John, just like the seasonal flu or the common cold. Get up get out , get over it.

    2. Thank you John for some sense. A recent Brazillian serological study showed 26% of residents of Sao Paulo, a BIG city, have anti-bodies to the Wuhoo Flu. That would suggest that it is endemic. Cold season is starting, is that what we are seeing with the testing we have?

      I still hark back to the Princess Diamond cruise ship in March-April. When the 3000 passengers and crew were finally released, 85% of them did not have hte virus, of the other 15%, half did not have symptoms and only a few died.

      1. Doesn’t it seem rather Coincidental, that as we move towards winter, the regular Flu season..and unending onslaught of “Get your Flu Shots here”…while at the exact same time as supposed infections are rising…??

        Duh, yea… the Flu is also a Corona virus and the PCR test is inconclusive at best.

        Talk about being Played.
        Stuff your mask – not wearing it
        Stuff your Flu shot – not taking it
        Stuff your Corona Test…and all the media fear mongering…I walk through WallMart with my eyes open, head held high, breathing through my nose and All I smell is fearful Karen’s, Corey’s & indoctrinated drones.

        1. If you think WalWart is bad, go to any airport nowadays. You can count on one hand those of us who refuse to wear a mask.

  2. Tal Bachman over at Steynonline says that not only do the Dems not care that the Bidens may have been acting bad, or even been up to illegal behavior, but it’s also clear from their actions that the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation don’t care if they broke the law.
    Furthermore:
    – former attorney general Jeff Sessions: Nice guy—did nothing.
    – Current Attorney General Bill Barr: so far, from what anyone can see, has also done nothing. The guy’s been attorney general for two years!! He hasn’t indicted John Brennan, Peter Strzok, Hillary Clinton, the FBI goons who framed General Flynn. He also gave Comey and McCabe a pass. And, so far, he’s provided no reason for anyone to believe he’ll ever indict Joseph or Hunter Biden—no matter how obviously guilty they are—for anything.

    For perspective the very next day after NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace’s team reported the presence of a “noose” hanging in his just-assigned Talladega garage— Christopher Wray sent fifteen FBI agents to scour the racing grounds for white supremacists

      1. Yeah, you know, posit this strategy. Like many others, it’s frustrating that no one but a low level Gman has been bagged on this. But, and this is important, look at the current reaction to the Toxic Laptop. A nation still divided, few minds changed.
        Consider if Barr had charged some of the obvious suspects only 2 or 3 months ago. The media would act in concert, that, Trump is taking vendettas against political enemies on ‘trumped” up charges…..almost half the country still believes the Russian Hoax. And any idea that this would see trial before 2022 is smoking dope. That fog of political interference would be just another shackle to wrestle.
        So, on that note, we can say they haven’t been charged YET, despite all of us would rather they swing from the gallows ASAP. How about this? Trump wins the election, and, the very next day, Barr lays charges against every single last despot involved. Wouldn’t that put a wrinkle in the Lawfare the Demarxists are planning?

        1. “Wouldn’t that put a wrinkle in the Lawfare the Demarxists are planning?”

          Yes. It would be sweet!
          Otherwise America is no longer America!
          Justice for all.

    1. It’s not acted upon because too many Washington honchos – political and affiliates are doing exactly the same thing. I think it is a sign that the country is so corrupt it can’t be saved.

    1. I have thought that the WuFlu was a POLITICAL disease. It was just TOO timely, what with Bill Maher positing that the only way to get rid of Orange Man Bad was a Recession, and BOOM two months later the world is locked down for the flu. TRUMP 2020 to short circuit THE GREAT RESET and make the WORLD GREAT AGAIN by putting all of these Globalist Villians in prison, including our own pederast prime minister.

      1. Oldtimer64 – I thought the timing was suspect as well. Xi hates Trump and could have stopped the virus but instead sent thugs to the whistle blower’s house at 1:00 AM to shut him up.
        The climate Nazis hate him as well so you can bet they have been spending billions to remove him and are delighted by the Wuhan flu coming along.
        Got to get back to work.

  3. Re: the BADR CHALLENGE…

    Question:”There’s a reference to “Dr Strangelove”, the movie in
    “Back to the Future.” What is it?”

    Answer: It’s the CRM-114
    An amplifier in Dr. Emmett Brown’s laboratory in “Back to the Future” is labeled “CRM-114”

    The C.R.M. 114 Discriminator is a fictional piece of critical radio equipment in Stanley Kubrick’s film Dr. Strangelove (1964), the destruction of which prevents the crew of a B-52 from hearing the recall code that would stop them from dropping their hydrogen bombs on the Soviet Union. The device is one of several that misfunction in the movie, along with Mandrake’s telephone, the bomb doors failing to open, and the Doomsday Weapon’s misuse — a common theme in Kubrick’s work of the failure of human planning.

    Thanks, I will PVR it!

    1. Ah, yes, the benefits of IMDB…. I’m assuming you looked it up there.

      When I saw Back to the Future, I noticed that reference right away.

      Actually, when Kubrick made the movie, he studied all sorts of documents available in the public domain to get details such as the B-52 cockpit and the bomb run procedures right. One story I heard was that he was questioned by the Pentagon as to how he got all that information, including that about the CRM 114.

      If you carefully listen to the movie dialog, you’ll hear reference to single sideband radios being used on the planes. That’s no trivial comment. SAC commander General Curtis LeMay was a ham, as was his deputy General Tom Power. They would likely have been familiar with the use of SSB by radio amateurs and that signals can be transmitted with less power by suppressing the carrier wave and filtering out one of the sidebands. That was the reason that SSB ended up being used by SAC.

      I heard another story about LeMay’s ham activities. Many years ago, an airman stationed in Alaska was on the air one day and he complained about the difficulties he had in getting certain supplies (or was it parts?). Apparently, LeMay overheard that contact and arranged to have those items shipped to the airman’s base without saying anything.

      1. B–

        I checked the search engine not IMDB.

        According to the above link there are at least 12 other non-Kubrick works that contain references to “CRM 114” in apparent homage to Kubrick. That is amazing and quite a compliment, almost better than an award.

        Of all that Kubrick directed, I’ve only seen “Spartacus” (1960), “2001 A Space Oddessy”(1968),  and “A Clockwork Orange”(1971) Where have I been?

        The latter 2 zammechat worldcasts were veddy in the Déjà Vu bolshy sinny.

        Oomny radosty!

        1. He also directed Barry Lyndon (nicely done, but a dreadful story, plus Ryan O’Neil can’t act), The Shining, and, one of my personal favourites (and probably the best Viet Nam war movies), Full Metal Jacket, the movie that made the late R. Lee Ermey a household name.

    1. At least – at VERY least – Hillary is free to complain all she wants about the President.

      Because she isn’t the President.

    1. An ABC WAPO poll. Yeah, the numbers are garbage and manipulated. 97% of the 800 polled, chose Trump or Biden, and, there’s only a 4% error margin? Almost zero undecideds?
      Another crap push poll, designed to discourage GOP voters from showing up

      1. Designed to discourage Trump supporters from showing up, but also designed to lay the ground work for claiming a Dem victory based on cheating.

  4. Bannons War Room Pandemic episode 462 from Wednesday is a must listen.
    War Room Pandemic is on Spotify. Commercial free. And Soundcloud too but it takes longer to get the upload.
    https://open.spotify.com/episode/1sP081gQ6JXVFx7Twc3txF?si=j8uDYXzDQCO002708K8WBA
    At 4 minutes Matt Tyrmand and Bannon discuss finding emails about a business contract with Mark Zuckerburg and the Bidens. And how it relates to Facebook throttling Republicans.
    @ 35 minutes Bannon calls out Trump to fire Wray. Then Bannon and Posobiec and discuss the breakdown in the Intelligence apparatus for failing to find all these emails (its impossible).
    At 41:30 retired CIA agent Sam Faddis and Bannon discuss a systemic problem in the Intelligence agencies. Fattis describes “Elite Capture” where the CCP turn other countries leaders into agents of the CCP to do their bidding. (Does this remind you of Trudeau turning Canada into a tributary state serving the Chinese Kingdom)???

    1. Episode 463 on Spotify.
      https://open.spotify.com/episode/7sRNbiftEakR4GiBuHHmp3?si=49pDMHGZTv-dL5d9CJ6Svg
      Retired CIA undercover agent Sam Faddis returns to reiterate the breakdown in Intelligence. Reports buried. (By whom)???
      Financial tracking is discussed within the SWIFT system. If you are political at a certain level of influence YOU ARE TRACKED.
      The globalist swamp is deep and wide.
      Comey, Clapper, Brennan, Hayden, Wray and Haspel are implicated.
      Biden Crime Family documents are uploaded to Twitter

      The implications here will astound you

      1. At about 36 minutes the team discusses a signed engagement letter with Patrick Ho and Hunter Biden and audio of him admitting that his handler is the “spy chief of China”
        Hunter then gets a Million dollar retainer with Ho.
        Did somebody at DOJ tip off Hunter to solicit a retainer thereby avoiding being on a FISA warrant???? !!!!!!!!!

    1. He may as well arrest every ordinary citizen as well because they demanded and used the products produced by the companies run by those executives.

  5. hey joe, he’s a liberal entitled to his entitlements. we peasants/pissants have no say in the matter other than to vote to give them even more. why this shows up again is a mystery.

  6. Angry Adolf continues to have his MP lapdogs filibuster any WE investigations at the committee level. Before Great Leader heads for Harrington Lake he will appear before his loyal media to explain how wonderful he is.

  7. The fix is in. Blackie’s media reports that the judge agrees with some of the claims by the Huawei executive’s lawyers.

    1. I wonder if thry are delaying until after the election? If Biden gets in thwarting the US attempt to arrest Meng goes down ok because Biden is also controlled by China.

      1. Delaying?
        This Meng case is going to last for at least a decade. The original case won’t be finished until 2022. Appeal after appeal after appeal will drag it out until after Joe Biden’s second term is over. I hope Meng likes Vancouver. She’s going to be living there for a large portion of the rest of her life. (Hopefully followed by being a long-term guest of the US Attorney General)

    1. Ah, but they so good at making you feel like the Asshole.
      Their mind is so set that nothing that can change it… but death.
      Try to use facts and true science with exact figures and that glaze of uninterested sweeps over their eyes as you get the same bullshit propaganda infused into their psyche of the followers programming as they keep trying to convince you that your the nutbar.

    1. Hunter inherited his taste for little girls from his father, and his taste for getting blitzed from his drunken party girl mother.

      God help me, Pierre Trudeau never flattered Justin like this.

  8. The Liberal Party’s Toronto Star reports that Big Chief Gay Eagle With No Balls will announce more money for whiny indians this morning.

    1. Don’t forget to Hire BIPOC:

      Forget about hiring the best candidate for the job, based solely on qualifications and credentials. Hire BIPOC preferentially….. or else.

  9. Blacklock reports that a former Toronto Star editor has received a quarter of a million dollar sweetheart contract from the federal government for his startup news service.

    1. No surprise at all, just a part of the deal turds and butts came up with for him, frees him up nicely for his next move on to whatever trough has been lined up for him.

  10. Blackie’s minister of muslim immigration just announced that Canada will take in over four hundred thousand immigrants every year for the next three years. Better start building those extra mosques, although I hear there are a lot of empty United Church buildings.

    1. a lot of empty United Church buildings

      The UCC is one denomination that promotes this. My freshman year roommate, upon retiring and moving to another town, joined a UCC congregation and is now busy helping import soldiers of Allah. Something about Matthew 25:40, I think.

      1. The United Church of Canada is the largest income-tax-shelter located on Canadian soil. It ceased being a religion a couple of decades ago. Most of the NDP’s apparatus is operated, tax-free, from UCC facilities.

        1. Former UCC moderator Bob McClure was a left-wing fruitloop. I recall when CBC Vancouver interviewed him some 40 years ago. He persisted in the idiotic notion that the Americans used biological weapons during the Korean War, something which had been long debunked.

          Someone I knew during my freshman year was a member of the UCC. From what I’ve heard, she’s quite the Dipper-loving SJW and I think she still attends services.

  11. True North reports that a former Tamil Tiger terrorist has been granted permission to practice law in progressive Ontario. But please remember that Christian law students are still not welcome by the Law Society of Ontario.

  12. I finally received my first in-store karening.

    I went to the grocery store earlier today and some masked granny came up to me in the produce section and quietly reminded me that I wasn’t wearing one. She promptly shut up when I told her that I was exempt and, yes, I was quite polite about it.

    I’m sure that if I did the same to her, I would have been told to mind my own business.

  13. Whiny indians are currently blockading a major street in diverse Toronto. I guess the hundred million dollars Blackie promised them today wasn’t enough or something.
