Blinken, You’re Insane
The first major destruction of Moscow dates back to the Mongol invasion of Russia. In 1238, the Mongols encircled Moscow, cutting it off from the outside world for five days. When they finally broke through, they set the city ablaze and slaughtered a large portion of its population.
Over a century later, in 1382, the Mongol Khan invaded again, swiftly crossing the flat plains leading to Moscow. The Russians, unprepared for such a rapid advance, were thrown into disarray. Those who remained in the city faced a horrific massacre.
The destruction was immense. The Mongols looted everything they could, burned the city, and left its streets filled with corpses—a gruesome scene reminiscent of a nightmare.
Two centuries later, in 1571, Russia was again embroiled in war. With its forces divided across several fronts, its enemies seized the opportunity, reaching Moscow with relative ease. Moscow’s geography—situated on an expansive plateau—made it particularly susceptible to attack. Entire settlements along the path to the city were destroyed.
History would repeat itself with Napoleon and later Adolf Hitler, yet here we are in 2024, and Moscow still stands under Russian rule.
I ask you, Anthony Blinken, in the classroom in the Ivy League school you attended, where you gained “real world experience” that you are out of touch with reality, did you think you could scare or deter Vladimir Putin?
From Richmond to Ottawa: Indigenous Land Claims Threaten Private Property Rights Across Canada
The Continuing Perversity of Civil Asset Forfeiture
A Richmond, B.C. man who’s owned his home since 1975 claims he has just been told his mortgage will not be renewed — because the B.C. Supreme Court granted title of his land to the Cowichan Tribe. After nearly 50 years of paying taxes, maintaining his home, and contributing to the community, his lender has informed him that his property no longer qualifies as secure collateral. The reason? His land title is now contested under an Indigenous land claim.
“I’ve owned my land for decades,” he said. “I’m not giving it up without a fight.” The homeowner received the news by letter and said his mortgage company refused renewal due to the uncertainty surrounding ownership. “I paid taxes, I paid for my place. Now, lo and behold, I don’t own it. Not fair.”
The court ruling in B.C. marks a historic precedent — and now it’s ...
Started on FB and everyone is losing their minds over the back to work order for teachers. Even Notley posted. I have been following this before they went out on strike and listened to Shilling blabber and change the story on talk shows. I may offend some but such is life but I don't care what has to happen to get kids back in the school of THEIR choice and stop this insanity. If you work for the taxpayer you should have no right to strike or threaten to in solidarity. I don't know the answer but what has happened for more years than not is not working. Abolish Unions and school boards also as they implement basically what the union wants - not Alberta Ed. Also put the special needs coded kids in their own classrooms all together and not with the ones there to learn. Sorry but if severe they will never learn like the others.
