It’s Saturday On Turtle Island

Biden’s America:  Where are the fathers?  Leftists are racist criminals.  The Late Show insurrection.

Pride Month:  Liars and butchers.  Giving irreversible gender drugs to 14 year old children.  Justin’s CBC celebrates Gay Indians.

Trudeau’s Canada:  Justin and his oppressive government.  Dear Leader encourages countries to increase carbon taxes.  Break out the feathers, drums, and chants to the sacred tree frog. Big chief in big trouble.

Yes, but can the crew celebrate Pride Month and use the proper pronouns?  China’s new aircraft carrier.

Embrace Hollywood!

“Democrats need to embrace Hollywood because this is where they need to come to learn how to tell a story.” – Michael Moore

How long will it take for Disney to get tired of plummeting stocks and lost revenue? Will they continue to put the LGBTQWTF cult agenda ahead of the bottom line? If history holds, they will continue on this self-destructing path just to send the right virtue signal to an audience that cannot keep Disney in business. That’s what you get when corporations get overtaken by social justice warriors. The message is more important than keeping the doors open or the shareholders happy. They literally don’t care if 90% of you hate it; they’re going to push it on you in spite of that and enjoy doing it.

The Ministry of Truth, v2.0

With the Insane Mary Poppins Wannabe now gone, the loathsome Dems have tasked Kamala Harris with heading up the New & Improved Ministry of Truth:

During Thursday’s White House press briefing, a reporter asked for clarification and for White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre “to clear up the disinformation charges,” but she was able to do no such thing. Instead, Jean-Pierre told the reporter she would have to talk to the vice president and encouraged him to contact the vice president’s office’s as well, as she was not part of a press call.

When it comes to her involvement on yet another project, Harris has been saddled with many such tasks here and there, which she has struggled with throughout the Biden-Harris administration.

A curious mind might wonder how a woman who is incapable of telling the truth could be heading up the Ministry of Truth? Also, is there any legal route to directly sue her for violating the First Amendment rights of every American?

And so it begins…

The biggest shock is not that Canadian housing prices are falling this quickly, but that most people believed that an economy mired in exponentially rising debt could easily withstand a couple of percentage point rises in the rate of interest.

The problem is the price they agreed to pay for the three-bedroom home in March: C$920,000 ($711,000).

By the time their lender got around to appraising the house in May, it marked the value down to C$800,000. A second appraisal a few weeks later was even grimmer — C$740,000.

Legally bound to the deal but no longer able to obtain a big enough loan to go through with it, the couple pleaded with the seller to nudge down the price. On Thursday, they closed at C$810,000. “We didn’t know that the market would crash,” Habibi says.

Friday On Turtle Island

No Pride Month:  Traumatized woman of gay moms.  Woke colonial Williamsburg.  In Scotland, eunuch rights matter.  CBC explains that Thunder Bay isn’t gay enough.

Trudeau’s Canada:  Defunding the police.  Indians and environmental loons will oppose shale gas revival.  I wonder if Justin will be there. Ceremony for those who identify as black.  And Rex Murphy writes about Fraulein Freeland.

Great moments in socialism:  The socialist plan.  And permanent shortages.  Dear Leader pays private contractors to censor documents.

Pride Month Tip:  How to have safe Monkey Pox sex.

We Don’t Need No Flaming Sparky Cars

What size battery does it take to start a battery?

On Monday, Ford Motor Co. notified dealers that it would be issuing a stop-sale notice for the all-electric “Mustang” Mach-E. The note made mention that the high-voltage contacts on the battery could overheat and cause malfunctions — potentially causing the vehicle to lose power while in operation or even fail to start.

Considering how absolutely wicked battery fires can become, this was likely a prudent move on the part of Ford. Over the last several years, EVs have been getting some negative attention for fires related to charging or battery failures of late and Blue Oval is likely aware that any mishaps with the Mach-E will be amplified as a result. Nipping this in the bud immediately is wise. However, the resulting recall has defaulted to the industry standard solution of issuing a software update on the affected models.

While tweaking the software can help mitigate problems, manufacturers have started leaning on the strategy as a way to buy time until a more comprehensive hardware fix is developed. This may also be the situation with Ford, as it doesn’t even want dealers to demonstrate the Mach-E to potential customers and used capitalized letters to make that point. Transcripts of the dealer notice shared on the relevant Mach-E forums have likewise mentioned that parts pertaining to the subsequent recall were unavailable. However, the phrasing used by the automaker makes the assumed lack of any parts interchangeable with the planned software update a corporate spokesperson said should be available next month.

Blame Canada

New York Times- Russian gas flows to Germany get snarled in Canada.

A machine used in shipping Russian natural gas to Germany has been caught up in Canadian sanctions imposed against Moscow, prompting a steep drop in flows in a key Russian pipeline and contributing to a surge in European natural gas prices on Tuesday.

Gazprom, the Russian gas monopoly, said on Twitter on Tuesday that it was reducing the amount of gas it sends to Germany via the Nord Stream pipeline by about 40 percent because a turbine sent for repairs had not been returned “in due time.” It said it could not provide the amount of gas normally sent to Germany without the machine.

Winter is coming.
