  1. Iowa lawmakers pass the nation’s most restrictive abortion ban — as soon as a fetal heartbeat is detected. https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/02/health/iowa-abortion-ban-trnd/index.html
    It puts the whole “clump of cells” thing into perspective don’t you think?

    How about a #Metoo T shirt with a fetus sucking her thumb and the words “Let’s change the dialogue from verbal violence to fatal violence” or same thing with “fetal violence” and fetal is crossed out and replaced with “fatal”.

    2. 1.8 billion defenseless, innocent unborn have been murdered.

      One death is a tragedy, a billion is a statistic.

  2. ‘God damn you to hell!’: Former Trump campaign consultant explodes at Democratic Senate aides after he loses his house to legal fees in ‘witch hunt’ congressional Russia probe

    The process is the punishment, and they know it.

    ‘I want to know who cost us so much money, who crushed our kids, who forced us out of our home, all because you lost an election. I want to know because God Damn you to Hell.’

    Ogabe weaponized the government, they weaponized the swamp.

    1. By trumps second term these scumbags will be in the wilderness forever. People won’t forget about their attempted coup. If I was American I’d tell my kids to make sure their kids kids kids kids never vote Democrat for what they’ve done. I’ve already told my kids about Chretien and the bags of cash.

  4. Perry Bellgarde of the Assembly of First Nations speaks about pot legalization and the Natives want their cut. It will be like Akwesasne, Kahnawake and Six Nations on everyones local Reserve. Poor Justins tax scheme will go up in flames.
    https://www.ctvnews.ca/video?clipId=1384139
    At the 1:32 mark he begins to speak about the Roman Catholic church being the only church not to formally apologize about the abuses in the residential school system.
    The fact is that Pope Benedict did formally apologize to a delegation in 2009.
    https://www.ctvnews.ca/pope-apologizes-for-abuse-at-native-schools-1.393911
    So much has been said about the Indians and their oral history. The natives have benefited tremendously from land claims settlements based on their oral history.
    How much weight should be placed on their oral history bullshit when one of the national chiefs cant get the story right after 9 years??

    1. The “First Nations” leaders think their shit doesn’t smell. They are racists. Too many of their people live in squalor while they push the “Indigenous Rights” narrative to put the blame on everyone else. If these socialists believed in individual rights – the Only rights that truly exist – they’d see improvements overnight. They need a boogeyman to point to because the mirror shows nothing but corruption and lies.

      1. in excess of 100 k per native is flushed by the feds. there should not be one single indian hungry or poorly housed. where does the money go? that is a rhetorical question, i know where it goes.

    2. ‘marry out get out’ is the war cry.
      https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/mohawk-community-s-marry-out-get-out-law-ruled-unconstitutional-1.3910040
      the chief predicts there will be a none-native chief if the process continues, the ‘cultural appropriation’ jingle sounds over the news media.
      I look in the background ( 1 minute mark) and see nice 2 story houses, with glass windows, paved driveway, doors with knobs on them that can lock and keep out the riffraff.
      did our native peoples invent these items of safety and convenience? who’s doing the appropriating?

    “There’s Been An Exodus From Canada” Says Suncor CEO As Investment Leaves”

    ““Canada is not doing very well, competitively, at the moment,” Steve Williams said in an interview with BNN Bloomberg.

    The CEO of Suncor says Canada is pushing away investment, in large part due to the burden of regulations and taxes.

    In an interview with BNN Bloomberg, Suncor CEO Steve Williams said “I think we’re running out of [companies to leave], in a sense. The big guys have already exercised some of their options.””

    “Danger of the controlling mindset

    What we are seeing is the danger of a government stuck in a controlling mindset. Often, the best thing the government can do is step back and let people make their own decisions and choices.

    Unfortunately, the Trudeau government is obsessed with having control over everything, and that means they feel the need to impose taxes and regulations that hold Canada back. That obsession with control is turning Canada into a more divided, and less prosperous nation.”

    https://www.spencerfernando.com/2018/05/02/theres-been-an-exodus-from-canada-says-suncor-ceo-as-investment-leaves/

    1. A more divided and less prosperous nation has been the Trudeau objective for the last 50 years. Keep the proletariat as serfs and make sure they won’t rebel against the “natural” ruling elites.

      But that’s also the attitude of the real (post-national, sharia-compliant, gender-balanced, Soros vassal) Canada, namely southern Wynnetario and southern Quebec. For example, those regions see the resources of Alberta as theirs and theirs to do with as they please. Developing them was never meant to be for the benefit of Albertans. Alberta was always meant to receive whatever crumbs it was given and was expected to be satisfied with them.

    “Canada facing ‘brain drain’ as young tech talent leaves for Silicon Valley

    Canada’s best and brightest computer engineering graduates are leaving for jobs in Silicon Valley at alarmingly high rates, fuelling a worse “brain drain” than the mass exodus by Canadian doctors two decades ago, according to a new study.

    The study, led by Zachary Spicer, a senior associate with the Munk School of Global Affairs’ Innovation Policy Lab at University of Toronto, found one-in-four recent science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) graduates from three of the country’s top universities – University of Waterloo, University of British Columbia and U of T – were working outside Canada.”

  10. For the 5 of us who follow Tesla it wasn’t a good quarter – worst ever actually for cash burning.

    https://www.wsj.com/articles/tesla-continues-to-burn-through-cash-1525293204

    But Musk is on target to produce 5,000 Model “S” cars a week by the second quarter (his estimate) and won’t need to raise money (his promise). Since production began last year approximately 23,000 “S” model sedans have been made (about $1 billion gross).

    “Trudeau family getting its meals delivered from 24 Sussex to Rideau Cottage”

    “It’s one way to do delivery.

    Even though no one has called 24 Sussex Drive home for more than two years, staff have been using the kitchen there to prepare meals for the Trudeau family, which are then ferried across the way to Rideau Cottage.

    It’s not clear that there’s anything wrong with the kitchen at Rideau Cottage, a red brick Georgian Revival heritage home on the grounds of Rideau Hall.

    Neither the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) nor the National Capital Commission, which oversees the official residences, would answer CBC’s questions about the state of Rideau Cottage’s kitchen. The one at 24 Sussex has been described as fully functional.”

    https://ca.news.yahoo.com/trudeau-family-getting-meals-delivered-080000742.html

    1. Not directly relevant to you comment, but clearly 24 Sussex is in a state of decay. Years ago Maureen McTeer suggested they tear it down and hold a competition for a new PM residence — a house that would be built to purpose and that could take advantage of the beautiful setting with large windows, etc. I thought that was an excellent idea, but it has disappeared. At the time it was suggested that this would cost not much more than refurbishing the existing place. Since we are abandoning a great deal of our traditional culture, why not get rid of 24 Sussex? It is one of the few things in the realm of abandoning culture that I would not object to and I think many people would be excited by the idea of a competition. Also, we know about 24 Sussex, but few of us have ever really been there, so how strong could our emotional connection to it be? Might be too late — alas our government is run by too many unimaginative bureaucrats.

  12. Socialists (read Democrats and Liberals) must surely be the dumbest politicians on earth.

    http://komonews.com/news/business/amazon-fires-back-at-seattles-proposed-head-tax-pauses-construction-projects

    A “Head Tax” on employees of big business, that just about takes the cake on idiocy. This is even better than a “Carbon Tax”. Every tax implemented has the opposite effect of Reagan’s trickle down theory. When the great enlightened ones that are elected to lead us come up with these taxes they continue to fail to realize that all, understand that means ALL, the taxes they impose eventually are paid by the ordinary working John and Jane Doe. These taxes that are supposed to help create the socialist Utopia of their dreams are instead reducing our standard of living, until the American/Canadian Dream that we have striven for over the last four hundred years will be nothing more than a fable, like Camelot!

  13. I’m a little envious of a typical liberal voter, when an election is called they do not have to concern themselves with campaign promises simply because their minds are like a steel trap closed tight. They cannot vote anything but liberal, the mental disorder they carry with them won’t allow it. So on election day they simply march to the booth like lemmings and put an x next to the liberal candidate. It matters not that they know nothing about the candidate, the criteria is that he is a liberal, sufficient reason to vote for he or she.

  15. the topic is media exaggeration, selectivity, and outright lies over the years:
    http://this-space-available.blogspot.ca/2016/01/space-myth-busted-gus-grissom-didnt.html

    the original ‘story’ as presented by the msm of the day: ’twas Gus’s doing all along.
    not so sayeth history, pardon moi for taking this long to point out the inaccuracy, msm is not noted for corrections;
    Wally Schirra sacrificed a bruised arm to show his buddy Gus did not, most assuredly, did NOT blow the hatch.
    and, I totally missed the story about the raised capsule showed likewise Gus did NOT blow the hatch.

    according to the msm, *their* story lines, rumour mongering, and state driven propanganda trumps hard forensic evidence.
    since the days of the Roman empire. or is that the egyptian empire. or mebbe the early 5,000 yr old chirese civilization.

    1. The incident didn’t harm Grissom’s reputation for very long. He was selected to command the first manned Gemini and Apollo missions, though it helped that his fellow Mercury astronaut, Deke Slayton, was in charge of the Astronauts Office. Slayton was the one who picked the crews.

      Grissom nicknamed his Gemini 3 spacecraft Molly Brown to poke fun at those who thought he was the one who blew the hatch on Liberty Bell 7. The name came from the movie The Unsinkable Molly Brown, which was about an American millionairess who survived the sinking of the Titanic.

      But the finding of the post-flight investigation of Liberty Bell 7 might have been his undoing. Grissom was selected to command Apollo 1 and the contractor that built the spacecraft, North American Aviation, designed the hatch to open inwards to prevent a similar occurrence. The internal Command Module pressure would help seal it shut, but opening it was a complicated procedure, taking about 90 seconds.

      Gus Grissom and his fellow crewmates, Ed White and Roger Chaffee, were killed when fire broke out inside the Apollo 1 Command Module during what is called a plugs-out test to simulate a launch countdown. The resulting increase in internal pressure would have sealed the hatch even tighter and White, who occupied the centre seat, would have had greater difficulty in opening it. Ultimately, it didn’t matter as Command Module ruptured about 15 seconds after the fire started and Grissom, White, and Chaffee were dead of asphyxiation.

      One result of the post-fire investigation was that the hatch was re-designed so that it could be opened within about 20 seconds and that it was hinged outwards. More than 3 years after the fire, Armstrong and Aldrin walked on the moon.

  17. just finished the 1988 Wm Lawren biography of Gen Leslie R Groves, ‘The General and the Bomb’.
    I think the fellow was autistic. the combination of technical brilliance, analytical skills to figure out a problem and hop onto the ‘bulldozer’ when necessary to push a sol’n, combined with the shortage of social graces, shows this.

    the right person at precisely the right place and time to get the thing done. umpteen delays, everything from radioactive xenon fudging up the production of plutonium, absent minded scientists wandering off onto all sorts of ‘interesting’ avenues of research instead of FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS, security challenges in a project involving 200,000 workers.

    thank you General Groves.

    1. One reason that Groves was selected for the Manhattan Project was that he had a reputation for getting things done. Prior to getting that job, he was in charge of building the Pentagon and, if I’m not mistaken, finished it on time and under budget.
