@manniefabian, with satisfying KABOOM video;

The IDF says it has located and demolished a hideout apartment belonging to Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar in northern Gaza, along with a large tunnel system under it.

The apartment, located on the outskirts of Gaza City, was found by the 14th Reserve Armored Brigade and later investigated by the elite Yahalom combat engineering unit, which found a tunnel shaft.

The IDF says it found “many findings” in the apartment that indicated it was used by Sinwar as a hideout.

The tunnel shaft was some 20 meters deep, and led to a 218 meter long tunnel with several branches, according to the IDF.

The underground passages featured electricity, air filtration systems, plumbing, resting and prayer rooms, and other equipment aimed at allowing senior Hamas members to remain hidden for long periods.

The tunnel was later destroyed by combat engineers, the IDF says.

Freya India- Why I’m Worried About The Rise Of Liberal Young Women

This gender gap has been widening for a while. Over the past two decades, the political profiles of young men and women remained pretty stable, but in recent years women have shifted significantly to the left. In the US, 44% of young women identified as liberal in 2021 compared to 25% of young men — up from 30% of women and 27% of men a decade ago; the biggest gender gap in 24 years of polling. It’s a similar story in the UK.

This isn’t just girls becoming left-wing. What this is, increasingly, is girls and young women being drawn to this newer offshoot of liberalism—wokeness, social justice culture, whatever we want to call it—and lurching to the left around the time this ideology took hold. By which I mean an ideology obsessed with identity; convinced that everything is socially constructed; supportive of censorship, and wedded to the core belief of liberalism that we must all be liberated from cultural norms and traditions.

National Post- In 25 years, up to half of Canadians may identify as racialized or visible minority, report finds

Canada’s demographic revolution is running at a furious pace, with population growth outstripping even the boldest predictions, mostly due to immigration, with important implications for Canadian identity as much as demography, according to a new poll by Leger for the Association for Canadian Studies.

Canada’s population surpassed 40 million people this summer, earlier than predicted. Statistics Canada reported recently that Canada’s population grew by more than 430,000 in the third quarter of this year, for a total of 40.5 million.

Shenna Bellows vs. The Will of the American People

Baiting The Left Democrats 36 Comments

Shenna Bellows is a Radical Left Woke Politician who has unilaterally decided to upend the democratic process of America. In other words, she is right and 330+ Million people are not. This is narcissism and arrogance on a level not seen in a long time. Styx, who grew up in nearby Vermont, has thoughts.

Daily Skeptic- BBC ‘Disinformation’ Reporter Plans Six-Month Sabbatical to go on Climate Course Funded by Green Billionaires

The OCJN runs what is described as an intensive programme for about 100 journalists/activists around the world. Participants can expect to be immersed in the correct political narrative surrounding climate collapse, the so-called ‘settled science’ and the need for extreme Net Zero measures, whatever the economic and societal cost. A flavour of the echo-chamber discussions can be gleaned from past essays produced by ‘alumni’, which include titles such as ‘Journalists should help audiences understand extreme weather – even when they lack climate data’, ‘To report fully on climate change, journalists need to integrate indigenous knowledge into their coverage’, and ‘Newsrooms should develop a mental health strategy to help climate journalists cope’.

San Francisco: The Democrats’ Nirvana on Display

Baiting The Left Democrats 2 Comments

Dr. Vinay Prasad works & lives in San Francisco. Today, he provides an accurate appraisal of the failed leadership and policies that have lead to the dreadful state that is the city as we enter 2024. Past city leaders must be rolling in their graves as they watch the gross incompetence of the political leaders hacks in place now.

Any Americans who want their community to devolve into “Progressive” San Francisco should most certainly vote for Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom, and London Breed.

ESPN, the Worldwide Leader in Sports, was accused of attempting to censor ex-employee Sage Steele after the former on-screen talent voiced opinions that irked people at the outlet and supposedly went against company governance.

Steele appeared recently on OutKick’s “Gaines for Girls” and relayed how ESPN requested she stop tweeting her support for Riley Gaines, while ESPN and Disney voiced adamant support for the trans community and athletes like Lia Thomas.

Steele noted that the company’s politics eventually became a mandate for employees, placing her in her employer’s sights.

Steele said to Gaines: “I was asked to stop tweeting about it. I was asked to stop doing anything, saying anything about it on social media because I was offending others at the company. I made sure I sent up another tweet that night after I received that email because like, no.”

Reactors by the dozen

Their German neighbours may have shut down their last nuclear reactors in 2023, but Poland is ALL IN when it comes to nuclear power. They’re building large reactors, small reactors, maybe even some micro (not sure on the last one). But they are going to be building 24 small modular reactors of the same design SaskPower has chosen. And that number might go up. I’ve seen references to as many as 70 BWRX-300s for Poland. One thing is clear – the manuals will be written in Polish before English, it seems. Meanwhile, Saskatchewan will not formally decide to go ahead or not until 2029. I’m not sure where they’re going to get their reactor fuel from, but they’ll be damned if they buy a pound from Russia. That puts Saskatchewan uranium in good stead for the possible supply – and with the numerous large reactors planned for Poland, plus all the SMRs, that’s a good, new, long-term market for us.

Globe and Mail- Ottawa, we have a problem: the federal public service

A few days later, we were told that federal government call centres, with an annual price tag of $368-million, are not meeting reasonable service standards, notwithstanding seeing the number of full-time staff going from 2,651 to 5,610 over an eight-year period. And a few days after that, Canadians were told that there is a profound malaise in Canada’s diplomatic service.

Defenders of minimum wage hikes usually claim that businesses will either effortlessly pass on the increased costs or accept a lower profit margin. There’s another way to get around such mandates, however: eliminate positions entirely.

Pizza Hut is laying off more than 1,200 delivery drivers in California.

The layoffs, which will take place through the end of February, come as California’s minimum wage is about to go up by $4. Fast-food workers in the state are set to get a pay bump of close to 30% in April as the minimum wages rises from $16 to $20 an hour.
