  • Tremors in MAGA: Joe Kent, the War on Iran, and the Antisemitism Smear

    Joe Kent, the now former US Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, always seemed a bit off, especially to liberals. As a combat veteran of MAGA pedigree, he found favour with President Donald J. Trump, who rewarded him for his conspiracy blustering in a manner befitting other nominees baptised in the truth repelling River of […]

  • The Anger that Masks the Sadness

    We have always lived in a society that hinders mental health care instead of enabling it. Now, this writer is surely not a psychiatrist, but I did spend a night in a Holiday Inn Express. My experiences as a patient of Freudian psychoanalysis 40 years ago taught me, among many things, that ‘The child is […]

  • Major Collision or Fender Bender? Is MAGA Splitting over Israel, Anti-Semitism, and Neo-Nazis?

    Major Collision or Fender Bender? Is MAGA Splitting over Israel, Anti-Semitism, and Neo-Nazis?

    Will Tucker Carlson’s interview with far-right activist, Nick Fuentes, tear MAGA apart? Did Tucker Carlson’s softball interview with white supremacist Nick Fuentes ignite a full-blown MAGA civil war? Is the latest dust-up — over Israel and anti-Semitism — between powerful and popular conservative voices, another family feud or a marker of End Times MAGAism? Is […]

  • Mainstream Smears Mean the System Fears Your Ideas

    A rightist columnist just labeled me “repellent,” while a left establishment commentator publicly proclaimed, “fuck Yves Engler”. Canada’s ideological apparatus is whipped into a frenzy over my multilayered challenge of Canadian foreign policy and my NDP leadership campaign’s activist anti-capitalism. On Friday, the ever-reliable Israel-no-matter-what supporter Rosie Dimanno labeled me “the repellent Yves Engler”. The […]

  • Public Funding of “Antisemitism Industrial Complex” Must End

    Historians aren’t going to believe this happened. All Canadians are paying a special envoy to lobby the police to exempt genocidaires from Canadian law. On Thursday Canada’s Special Envoy on Preserving Holocaust Remembrance and Combatting Antisemitism Deborah Lyons posted: Yesterday I spoke to the RCMP and confirmed that there is no investigation into Israeli Canadians. […]

  • Theroux’s Film on Israel’s Violent Settlers Was a Mirror

    Theroux’s Film on Israel’s Violent Settlers Was a Mirror

    For once, the BBC aired a documentary showing Israeli society’s dark underbelly. The backlash is not because Louis Theroux got it wrong.

    Main-Streeting Hate and Bigotry in Trump’s America

    At demonstrations, most wear matching outfits; hoodies, hats, blue t-shirts and chinos. Although they claim to eschew violence, they come prepared; donning matching shin guards like catchers wear in baseball, and often wield red, white and blue shields. They wear body cameras so their media team can process and post collected footage. Some are calling […]

  • Jewish Supremacy is a Bigger Problem than Antisemitism

    Fifteen months into Israel’s holocaust some leftists continue to uphold Jewish supremacy. Many supposedly on the side of humanity continue to boost an ideological stick enabling a genocide, authoritarianism and a movement promoting “mass deportation”. Recently Caitlin Johnstone posted: “First end the active genocide, THEN talk to me about your concerns regarding a rise in […]

  • Anti-Immigrant Agitation in a Nation of Immigrants

    In recent days, Donald Trump and his Republican running mate, JD Vance, have doubled down on their false and defamatory claims about legally-admitted Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, thus churning up widespread fears, bomb threats, and school evacuations.  Claiming that these migrants were destroying the American “way of life,” Trump promised that, if elected, he […]
