Blacklock reports that reporters have been called to a CONFIDENTIAL meeting Monday. Dear Leader will be outlining his election platform. Election during a so called pandemic. How quaint. http://www.blacklocks.ca
Oddments For The Weekend
Including a TV-viewing dispute; some burly tumbleweed; slow-motion moths; a memorable cleaning job; and an ideal addition to any bathroom.

Via @MZHemingway — I believe I speak for many when I say President Trump should be hired to do Olympic commentary.

Your funny or more serious tips would be appreciated!
Ontario Vaccine Injuries
They’re only “rare” when they don’t happen to you, or someone you love.

Hamilton has an “Identity” Problem
This week, Hamilton, Ontario has been instructing its employees on the city’s 23-page(!) “Protocol for Gender Identity.” These training sessions are mandatory and take 2 hours. An employee sent me the materials, & they are what you might expect, along with a few surprises…
Masks, YouTube & Rand Paul
Some good info in both these videos.
The offending video Rand mentions above.
Rex Defends Harper, Causing Liberal Heads To Explode.
Rex Murphy wonders why the Trudeau cult has a sick obsession with Harper. https://nationalpost.com/opinion/rex-murphy-the-classy-stephen-harper-returns-to-speak-truth-to-the-illiberal-left
Empress Walensky and the Feckless Republicans
The people behind the scenes, pulling the strings of Biden, Harris, and everyone else in the corrupt pyramid of power must be killing themselves laughing how most everyone is focused on Creepy Cuomo’s sexual exploits and completely ignoring the fact that the Rule of Law no longer exists in America.
Republicans, where art thou? Might your handlers have told you that trying to help landlords get their money would be spun against you? Asking for a friend. Actually, several hundreds of millions of them.

State orders $1 million tax refund for Trump
The Illinois Property Tax Appeal Board has decided former President Donald Trump is due a $1 million refund on his skyscraper’s 2011 tax bill, ruling last month that the Cook County Board of Review overestimated the value of the building’s hotel rooms and retail space.
But the Cook County State’s Attorney has filed suit with the Illinois Appellate Court, seeking to block the tax refund, which has yet to be issued.
The state agency’s board voted 5-0 on June 2 to reduce the assessments on the building’s commercial property, which would trigger a refund of $1.03 million for Trump, slightly less than Burke had requested.

Jet Fuel Stocks Continue To Rise As Production Outpaces Demand
Despite a marked rise in U.S. air travel numbers this year compared to 2020, jet fuel inventories have climbed in recent months as refiners boosted production, while jet fuel demand is still lower than pre-pandemic levels.
Refiners in the United States have raised jet fuel production by almost 8 percent, or 102,000 barrels per day (bpd), since the first week of May, the Energy Information Administration (EIA) said on Wednesday.
However, as of July 23, the combined total U.S. jet fuel inventory was 9.9 percent higher than the five-year (2016–2020) combined average due to increased jet fuel production and lower product supplied.
Quebec Apparently Likes Child Porn.
Blacklock reports that the federal regulator has cited a TV station for showing porn to children. The regulator understands that Quebec is more tolerant than other provinces, but has gone to far. And Fraulein Freeland is being asked to appear before a parliament committee to explain why she is opposed to a tax cut for farmers. Another day on Turtle Island
Fake Fish
When it comes to seafood, nearly half of what you think you’re buying at the grocery store or ordering from a menu is falling short of its promises, according to a new DNA testing study by Oceana Canada. The ocean conservation group tested seafood samples from restaurants and grocery stores in Halifax, Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto, and found that 46 per cent were mislabelled.
Liberal Hypocrisy. I’m Shocked!
Climate Barbie follows the traditional Liberal world view, of do as we say not as we do. And the Liberal Party’s CBC has mentioned that the search for unmarked graves at the largest residential school in the Maritimes has found nothing. The search is over.Nothing to do with the election of course.

Masks don’t Work
A high level look at what has and hasn’t happened around the world. A story that’s told through 75 various charts and data sets. (Its a decent size file so you may have to wait a bit for it to download.)
Maybe masks work in some specific cases when worn properly but from a big picture public health perspective they don’t even move the needle.
