Why the World’s Largest Megaproject Collapsed
O, Sweet Saint Of San Andreas
California was ground zero for the Biden-era migrant wave. The state saw an enormous number of people cross its border, including more than 400,000 illegal immigrants between 2021 and 2023 alone. Under Newsom’s leadership, the nation’s largest “sanctuary” state granted hundreds of millions of dollars to nonprofits that have encouraged the flow of humanity across the border, variously providing migrants with transportation, shelter, social services, and legal protection.
The expenditures have been enormous. According to our review of state funding records, since Newsom took office, California has granted massive contracts for migrant-related services: more than $250 million to Catholic Charities; $85 million to Jewish Family Services; $12 million to Centro Legal de la Raza; $23 million to the Immigration Institute of the Bay Area; and more.[…]
Other groups focus on ideological subpopulations. Oasis Legal Services, another taxpayer-funded group, has worked on helping “queer and trans immigrants navigate immigration relief and benefits.” In a recent report, the group boasted that “the odds of winning an asylum case go up to 99% for clients when they are represented by an Oasis team member.” (The group denies that it encourages the entry of immigrants.)
Adam Ryan Chang, Oasis’s executive director, believes that “homosexual audacity” is his “superpower,” and he has framed his work with the nonprofit as part of a broader left-wing campaign of “liberating” the “LGBTQ+ community.” In a recent annual report, the group highlighted its work of apparently representing migrants with a sexually transmitted disease. In 2024, the report said, “one in six of new clients is living with HIV and the rest are all at significant risk of contracting HIV.” In 2025, the proportion increased to one in five.
Things You’ll Never See On The CBC
This week, I received a memo — presumably confidential — addressed to CBC News staff. It is authored by one Basem Boshra, who is the “Senior Director of Journalistic Standards and Public Trust at CBC News.” In Boshra’s memo, reporters are editors are told this:
“Do not refer to the Sept. 11 attacks as terrorist attacks.”
Cultural Imperialism
Were the latest CRTC mandates, and justifiable American opposition to them, the excuse for claiming a supposed threat to Quebecois culture and ending the trade talks? None of that would surprise me. In any case, it’s an incredibly stupid hill to die on and it sickens me that Canadians seem happy to go along with that.
Prime Minister Mark Carney has said the U.S. put pressure on Canada to adjust its position on rules around discoverability of content online, and that U.S. demands would have affected Canada’s ability to protect its culture, including the French language.

What Did Fauci Mean by “Game On”?
Working with military intelligence and pharmaceutical companies, Fauci and his colleagues eventually hatched an audacious plan to delay natural immunity for a full ten months as they awaited both the November election and the viable release of the injectable product called a vaccine – all in the hope that it would be given credit for fixing the problem they created in the first place.
This scheme, however, was Fauci’s personal Plan B.
Plan A is revealed in the diaries. It was to bury the existence and spread of the virus in question within a broader fabric of a bad flu season. This might have worked too. With the overwhelming fatality threat falling nearly entirely on the aged and infirm, the deaths from Covid in particular could have been overlooked completely. This was his preferred outcome, or, rather, the best that he could come up with given the panic of the first weeks of January 2020.
Disaster In Nepal
The scale is massive, and the videos coming out are horrifying.
A major flash-flood disaster has hit Nepal’s Rasuwa district, near the border with Tibet/China, after an event early Wednesday morning caused catastrophic flooding along the Trishuli and Bhotekoshi river systems.
According to preliminary information presented by Nepal’s Foreign Minister, an earthquake struck the area at around 08:37 local time, apparently triggering an avalanche that then caused a sudden release of water and severe flash flooding.

Hamas, western media hardest hit.
The evacuation of the UNRWA compound in Jerusalem has begun today, ordered by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The State of Israel will not allow an organization whose employees were involved in terrorism and the October 7 massacre to operate within its territory.
One of many such examples: Hamas used UNRWA and USAID sacks to build tunnels

American Style Elbows
Why is an American Democratic campaign veteran running the PMO’s operations and U.S. strategy while trade and security tensions escalate?
Johnson is a US citizen. She directed scheduling for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign, worked at Michael Bloomberg’s Hawkfish, provided strategic consulting to the Biden campaign in 2020, and has deep Bloomberg network ties. As a non-Canadian, she is barred from Top Secret clearance — yet she is now Carney’s top deputy with unclear access to sensitive material. There was no official announcement on the PMO website
Her path to Ottawa runs through the climate-finance web Carney co-chaired (GFANZ with Bloomberg), Gerald Butts (now advising alongside Carney’s wife at Eurasia Group), John Podesta, and recent private gatherings involving Barack Obama, Alex Soros, Huma Abedin, and senior Canadian officials. These are the same networks that have long treated Canada as a friendly base for opposing a Republican White House

Here’s the 1956 Version of “1984”. Back then, it likely seemed preposterous. Today, 70 years later, not so much.
Bonus: I’ve often pointed out that Woke White Women are the Worst. While I hold true to this assertion, Female Black Fatigue is a real thing too. Here’s an example why.
We’re hoping you have some good news tips to share!

In what might be the greatest troll of all time, Trump should post a poll on X.com and TruthSocial.com, asking people to choose from a list of names to replace Lake Ontario. I think “Lake Trudeau” should be at the top of the list. Not because I’d ever want this, but rather that it would cause the minds of the Elbows Up crowd into such cognitive dissonance that they may never recover.
For extra trolling fun … if you translate “Ontario” phonetically into modern Cree Syllabics today, it would look like ᐊᓐᑎᐅᕆᐤ (An-ti-o-ri-o). So I propose “Lake ᐊᓐᑎᐅᕆᐤ” as the second name on Trump’s poll.
What other names should be included?
