    I see some toons and wonder if they have some other meaning other than what is obvious. Then I keep thinking should I post it or should I not. So if any toons have some other message other than what is obvious it is really hard for me to work out when I am quickly checking and copying links.

    Harry made a big mistake. He is now a pathway to paradise. There is bound to be a imam who will fatwah him. Look up the assassins to see that nothing on earth stops them and they are eager to die. Remember Rushdie didn’t kill anyone.

Within the hours-long cross-examination she gave a shocking answer to the question; “Do childhood vaccine trials support the CDC’s claim that vaccines do not cause autism?” Regardless of your stance on the issue of Vaccines and Autism, her answer is a must-see.

    I will risk my licence to escape social media re-education

    This is the crime:

    • I retweeted a comment made by Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre about the unnecessary severity of the COVID lockdowns;
    • I criticized Prime Minister Justin Trudeau;
    • I criticized Justin Trudeau’s former chief of staff, Gerald Butts;
    • I criticized an Ottawa city councillor; and
    • I made a joke about the prime minister of New Zealand, Jacinda Ardern.

    Peterson asks the reader these questions:

    • What makes you think that something similar won’t happen to you, or to someone you know and respect or even love?
    • What makes you think you are going to continue to be able to communicate honestly with your physicians, lawyers and psychologists (and representatives of many other regulated professions) if they are now so terrified of their regulatory boards that they can no longer tell you the truth?
    • What are your children going to be taught when all their teachers (that’s a regulated profession, too) are so afraid of the woke mob that they swallow all the ideological lies that are now required of pedagogues — regardless if they believe what they are saying?
    • Where are we going to be if we allow criticism of the public figures charged with the privilege of our governance to be grounds for the demolition of not only the critic’s reputation but their very livelihood?
    • How far are we willing to go down this road, without forthright resistance?

    Zelensky blasts Russian Orthodox Church call for Christmas truce
    as Putin orders cease-fire

    On the eve of Christmas for the Russian Orthodox Church, Moscow’s Patriarch Kirill called for a Christmas truce between Ukraine and Russia amid the ongoing hostilities. The ask was for a 2-day cease-fire so that the faithful could attend Mass. Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed to the short-term cease-fire.

    The leader of the war-torn nation of Ukraine balked at the idea of peace, with Mykhailo Podolyak, advisor to the Chief of Staff, calling the call for a truce a “cynical trap and an element of propaganda.”

    There are just 20 Republicans in the House who dared to stand up against the rot and fight for their country.

    The latest news is that most have given in and there are only 6 holdouts. Two of them would have to vote for McCarthy for him to win.

    Kim Iversen: Top 10 Mainstream Media LIES That Ended Up Being TRUE After All

    Getting the list down to just 10 wouldn’t have been easy. A good summing up of the main ones. We are now Spoiler Alertists instead of Conspiracy Theorists.

    It took 60 years for the JFK lies to be uncovered. Will it take another 60 for Climate Change, Covid and Ukraine to be revealed as hoaxes?

    Zelensky’s new nationalist Ukraine Orthodox Church has moved the Ukrainian Christmas to the western calendar, i.e., 25th December. Here’s some of the new church singing praises to the mass murderer Stepan Bandera who was responsible for the slaughter of the Kiev Jews and thousands of Poles (from the 17 minute mark) –

    So the Uniparty guy Kevin McCarthy got elected on the 15th vote. I hope the patriots got some good concessions, but I doubt it.

    Interesting

    https://safeblood.ch/en/
    …This is where the SAFE BLOOD Donation comes into play as an intermediary. We are working to ensure that our members can obtain unvaccinated blood, either fresh or canned, should they need it. In return, they make themselves available as blood donors. Anyone can become a member, whether vaccinated or not – but only those who have not been vaccinated can donate.

    Setting up the necessary infrastructure is very time-consuming and we are working on it at full speed. We are already represented in 18 Western European countries, in the USA, Canada, Australia, Asia and various African countries.
    We now have members in more than 80 states worldwide, 41 of them in the USA alone…

    Trump is the problem, not the solution

    Former President Donald J. Trump made a crucially timed call to Representative Matt Gaetz on Friday night after the Florida congressman voted “present” and sunk Kevin McCarthy’s 14th effort to be elected House speaker.

    Mr. Trump’s call may have played a role in Mr. Gaetz opting to continue with another round of balloting, along with a small group of other members who had been opposing McCarthy’s candidacy.

    Mr. Trump called Mr. Gaetz, according to two people briefed on the call who spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to speak publicly. CNN reported that Mr. Trump also called Representative Andy Biggs, who switched from voting against Mr. McCarthy to voting “present” on the 15th round.

    A photo taken of members on the House floor showed Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, Republican from Georgia and an ally of Mr. McCarthy, holding up her cellphone, with “DT” on the other end, and trying to give the phone to Representative Matt Rosendale, who had voted for a different candidate on the most recent ballot. Mr. Rosendale appeared to brush her off as she tried to hand him the phone.
