Dissension In The Ranks?

If you take a gander at the conversations on Twitter today, Trump’s apparent endorsement of the H1-B visa program in an interview with Laura Ingraham doesn’t seem to be going over so well. My earlier understanding was that there was going to be a $100,000 fee applied to those visas. Does anyone know what’s happening with that?

“This is insane—we are going to lose the mid-terms so badly,” Anthony Sabatini, a vocal pro-Trump county commissioner in Florida with a large online following, wrote on Tuesday on X, where the president’s remarks quickly went viral.

The fallout was already clear to see last week. And it doesn’t look good for Canadian democracy or Canadian media, which receives significant government subsidies. Even at surface level, the press corps was visibly distracted from its first duty to citizens: scrutinizing a historically large budget packed with nation-building promises and unanswered questions about feasibility. Veteran reporters have already acknowledged this.

Generally speaking, the leadership cadre of large Canadian businesses tend to carry water for the Liberals no matter what. It’s refreshing to see at least one of them speaking out about the Canadian economy’s appalling lack of productivity.

“The business sector (has) grown productivity about 50 per cent since roughly 2000 (but) the non business sector — this is government and not-for-profit businesses and workers — in those areas … productivity has been absolutely flat, zero growth, not one bit of productivity,” she said at the University of Waterloo’s Tech Horizons conference.

“I find it kind of frustrating because those people were telling us in business that we’re not productive when they’re the ones who are flat like pancakes.”

The BBC’s director general Tim Davie and head of news Deborah Turness have resigned after criticism that a Panorama documentary misled viewers by editing a speech by Donald Trump.

Davie, in the job for five years, had faced increasing pressure over a series of controversies and accusations of bias that have dogged the public broadcaster.

The Telegraph published details of a leaked internal BBC memo on Monday that suggested the Panorama programme edited two parts of the US president’s speech together so he appeared to explicitly encourage the Capitol Hill riot of January 2021.

UK political leaders expressed hope the resignations would lead to change, while Trump welcomed the decision.

More: Four years ago, I gathered all the evidence from an antisemitic attack against a bus full of Jewish teens celebrating Chanukah. I spoke to victims, had Hebrew audio verified and translated by linguistic experts, and presented it to the BBC whose reporters and editors decided to completely invent a falsehood that blamed the Jewish teens.

The Telegraph- The devastating memo that plunged the BBC into crisis

The document, written by former journalist Michael Prescott and sent to the BBC board, exposes a string of incidents that demonstrate serious apparent bias in the corporation’s reporting. They include evidence that BBC Panorama “doctored” a speech by Donald Trump to make it wrongly appear as though he directly called for violence on the day that his supporters stormed the US Capitol.

What the BBC has done with their doctoring a speech by Trump that aired a week before the 2024 presidential election, made him appear to encourage the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. This was deliberate FAKE NEWS in an attempt to influence the election. I believe this a CRIME!!

National Post- BBC a case study in how liberal media loses trust

Last month, the BBC apologized for committing a “serious breach” of broadcasting rules when it failed to disclose that the 13 year-old subject of its documentary, “Gaza: How to Survive a Warzone,” was the son of a Hamas official.

Spiked- The BBC has gone full Pravda

Broadcast just a week before the presidential election in November 2024, it shows Trump in January 2021 saying: ‘We’re going to walk down to the Capitol and I’ll be there with you and we fight. We fight like hell. [If] you don’t fight like hell, you’re not gonna have a country anymore.’

There was only one problem: Trump didn’t say that. The BBC spliced together two entirely different remarks from Trump, made 54 minutes apart,

Your Moral And Intellectual Superiors

we’re back to this game with the media, where they demonize Republicans when they’re alive, but fawn over them when they’re dead. We saw that with George H.W. Bush. Cheney was viewed as Darth Vader — and worse — when he was George W. Bush’s vice president. Now, he’s being hailed as some statesman, the face of a GOP that was liberal media-friendly, for lack of a better term. That’s crap, and you know it.

Gateway Pundit:

Jim Robinson, the visionary founder of Free Republic and one of the internet’s earliest conservative pioneers, passed away peacefully on Monday, October 27, 2025, in Fresno, California. He was 79. […]

In 1996, from his Fresno home, Robinson launched Free Republic as a small discussion board for conservative viewpoints. What began as a side project quickly grew into a national movement. By early 1997, “Freepers,” as members called themselves, were exchanging ideas, posting news links, and organizing events long before social media made such activism commonplace.

During the Clinton impeachment era, Free Republic became a hub of conservative grassroots energy, proof that ordinary citizens could wield collective influence through the internet.

Consistent with the progressive belief that government subsidies can cure any problem, Ford ordered that 25 per cent of the $100 million spent on advertising annually by the Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO), the Ontario Cannabis Store, Metrolinx and the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) be directed to Ontario newspapers. And he didn’t stop there.
