    1. So tell me that cop is not aware of the technology the creeps are using where they scan the residence with a gadget that relays the signal from fob to the car, unlocks the door and starts the ignition.

      Our neighbours car was stolen this way from a hotel north of Toronto.

  1. l remember the hack

  2. Re: Once upon a time in the west.

    Like, WOW!! That was something else, There is hope for the human race after all!!

  3. “There is no more denying that Operation Warp Speed, the federal government’s fast-tracked Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) “vaccine” unleashing scheme, was a premeditated genocide of the American people – so much so, in fact, that COVID jabs are now considered to be a 12-sigma event.

    A 12-sigma event is an event that has an almost zero percent chance of happening – a black swan event, if you will. Concerning Operation Warp Speed, unleashed by the Trump regime, it is also an extinction-level event, or an ELE.”

  4. Conservative MP Michael Barrett catches a GCStrategies honcho in a lie:
    https://www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/article-auditor-general-office-firings/

    (paywlled).

    In November, 2023 GCStrategies Kristian Firth said he never met with government executives outside of office hours. But testimony shows that he wined and dined with them. All this when his two-person company made tens of millions of dollars on ArriveScam. All of this when Canadians are struggling with high rents and food prices.

    And Kristian Firth will not face punishment for perjury.

    1. Twas ever thus.
      I think it has more to do with dumb, docile, dead from the neck up voters.

    1. GDP numbers that include government spending and borrowing and creation of currency aren’t worth the paper or computer they are written. 30+trillion in debt and the U S…. g d p is doing good? Man I love fun with numbers.

      We are both going down and it will be a hard fall.

      1. The more money you borrow, the bigger your net worth.
        Debt doesn’t matter.
        Math doesn’t matter.
        It is easy to be Liberal.

    2. The economy is no longer based on resources (mostly oil and gas). TurdHole says that’s a win.

      1. Parasitism creates zero value. In fact it destroys the good, productive work of others.

    1. That is a typical statement by a narcissistic sociopath after being called out on his BS. What he really said is: “If you don’t shower me with accolades, I will destroy you.”

  5. Queens’ student forced out of student election for views and Jewishness.

    https://nationalpost.com/news/queens-student-politician-driven-out-by-woke-campaign

    In a social media post, No Vote 2024 said Mawji’s team had an “unclear stance on pressing issues such as the movement to decololonize campus,” among others.

    “We support political diversity within student institutions however we believe John A. Macdonald should be remembered as the notorious colonist he was, whose legacy represents violent genocide and the erasure of Indigenous nations across Turtle Island,” No Vote 2024 wrote on Jan. 31.

    Queens has been lost.

  6. It’s truly sad that “content moderation” has become such a constant presence even here.

    1. Software will capture comments based on previous reports of spam and abuse, along with certain keywords and portions thereof. Most are accidental, and as monitoring these is the last thing I have time for, most aren’t released. I have other demands on my time, called making a living.

      Comments that are trashed or changed manually are always due to persistent trolling or off topic, and repeat offenders may find they receive special attention.

      1. Proud of you for making a living, dear. I think we can refer to that as the “old normal” LOL> Can we get an update on the critters some time? Cheers!

      2. As I suspected what happened when I tried to post earlier today, although I can’t imagine what I could have said that would have been flagged by the bot.
        Still…
        If I am caught in the crosshairs for “trolling,” I would dearly love to hear an explanation as to why, because it isn’t my intention to troll. Perhaps something can be done so that a message just doesn’t simply disappear, but instead, a warning is displayed, so that I would take care not to repeat the behavior. I don’t know if something like that is technically possible on this platform, but it is on my wish list nevertheless.

    2. Some special characters (I think one is ampersand) seem to trigger things to moderation.

  7. 3 out of 4 different posts never went up, so let’s see if I can get a second of five posts to succeed.

    US Had Secret Talks with Iran About Houthi Red Sea Shipping Attacks in January
    Posted on March 14, 2024 by Yves Smith

    The Financial Times has a curious planted story as its lead offering: US held secret talks with Iran over Red Sea attacks. The reason this piece was almost certainly planted, as opposed to leaked, is that it names the names of the participants. But keep in mind that things are so fraught between the two countries that the discussions were indirect: Oman officials carried messages between the two teams. They were also allegedly the first communications in ten months… and two, perhaps closer to three, months after the conflict in Gaza began.

    Forgive me for engaging in a close reading of this piece, since it may represent a shift in US messaging about Iran. It’s surprisingly even handed by Western media standards in its treatment of Iran, which is not to say that it also does not have some key omissions. ”

    1. It would be racist not to make it easy for the vehicle liberators to take yours!
