Yeah right, stoop down for a second and check which way the wheels are pointing while there's a driver refusing to co-operate. Last June, during a routine traffic stop in Bloomington, Minnesota, the same officer was dragged roughly 100 yards by a driver after his arm got stuck in the vehicle, according to The New York Post. Who was the driver? An illegal migrant.

Meanwhile, In December 2025, Canada experienced a significant uptick in job losses, particularly among youth. Despite adding 8,200 jobs, the unemployment rate rose to 6.8%, up from 6.5% in November. Youth Employment: Approximately 27,000 jobs were lost among workers aged 15 to 24, which reversed some gains made in the previous months. And as I had previously posted, Canada's per capita GDP has fallen for 6 consecutive quarters. Also, many seniors in Canada are indeed feeling compelled to return to the workforce. Not much of a record to boast about, yet there are clearly enough Canadians that are happy with his performance. In other news, Carney is flying to China and apparently Michael Ma is going too. Why is Carney going? (Brookfield Asset Management has significant business interests in China, particularly focusing on the renewable energy sector and real estate investments.) Which country will Michael Ma be representing?🤔

Agreed. They were doing their job. What has been left out so far is who they were there to apprehend. This is the man that protesters did not want ICE to capture. Search Assist ICE was attempting to arrest Roberto Carlos Muñoz-Guatemala during the incident when the woman, Renee Nicole Good, was shot. He was in the country illegally and had a criminal history, including domestic assault and sex crimes against a minor.

Strange. I don't recall you ever once complaining about masked left-wing protesters and rioters.

TikTok, The View, CBC?

Since they are mentioning 'another George Floyd' moment, that would be an indication that the left could go and riot...again.

Nobody is applauding her death, and anyone that does must be called out for it. You refer to that horrible period when people were marched to the gas chambers, but in the present day it's mainly people from your side that support the actions of Hamas against the descendants of the holocaust. It's mainly people from your side that complained that the Trump assassin failed. It's mainly people from your side that danced and cheered when Charlie Kirk was shot. It's not us that should be looking in the mirror.

Have you even bothered to watch the video of this event? And if you have, how on earth can you say there's 'no reason'? Nobody on the conservative side will be happy about this woman losing her life, but she is the one that made a decision to take the situation to another level. If she simply did what they told her to do, she would be alive. Already they are trying to create another George Floyd scenario.

Keith Olbermann's social media posts gives us a glimpse of how twisted the average leftist mind is.

If the left does their usual thing, then the National Guard will(and should) react accordingly.

Sadly, most people on the left don't have an issue with the current system. 26 contacts per offender and still little to no chance of serious jail time. Pathetic.

'Palestinians' are to blame for their situation, not Israel. They are the spoiled brats of the Middle East. You will no doubt continue to sympathize and support those who routinely chant 'death to Israel, death to America, death to Canada'.

I'll meet you halfway. The title should have been 'Somalis are net drain on US'. And there is a lot of fraud happening in Minnesota. And a huge portion of that fraud seems to be perpetrated by Somalis.

I would place most of the blame on bad Liberal policies from 2015 to the present day.

I think what this discussion boils down to is the fact that the right and left rely on different sources for information. Generally, your sources do not cover facts that tend to hurt the Liberals, and if they do, they put a Liberal-friendly or anti-Conservative spin on it.

I think you missed the point of Brandon Gill stating those numbers. They clearly indicate that in the US, Somalians are a net drain and not a net contributor to the economy.

Let's see, one circle is 'Islam' and the other is 'the Left'. The overlap could read 'hatred of Israel', and 'use of violence as a means to an end'

You blame the sad state of our economy on Trump. In this case I actually agree with Mark Carney. He said this: Search Assist Mark Carney stated that Canada's economy was already weak before the threats from President Trump, attributing this to a significant increase in the labor force due to immigration and government spending that outpaced economic growth.

If you don't take it from me, how about from Newsweek? "How the Left Fell in Love With Militant Islam " There has been a similar surprise for American moderates since the vicious, inhuman assault on Israel on Oct. 7 by Hamas. They have been shocked by the support for the Islamic extremists from Leftist academics and activists. How could ardently feminist supporters side with a culture that represses women? How could trans-rights activists back a society where any deviation from sexual or gender norms can result in death. What could the far left have in common with Islamists who seem to stand for everything they are against? Dig down and you'll see Islamists and radical leftists have a lot more in common than meets the eye. Prominent leftist scholars like Noam Chomsky and Judith Butler have expressed support for such terrorist groups as Hamas and Hezbollah and have described them as part of the international and progressive left.

How are we doing under Carney the Great? Search Yes, Canada's per capita GDP has fallen for six consecutive quarters. Recent Economic Performance The most recent report indicates that Canada's GDP per capita fell by 0.4% in the last quarter, contributing to the ongoing decline. This six-quarter downturn reflects broader economic stagnation, with only a 0.4% growth since October 2024 despite population growth of 1.4%, leading to a real per capita reduction. The left continues to be fixated on Poilievre and Trump while they ignore the weak state of our economy.

Congressman Brandon Gill. (House Oversight Hearing on MN fraud probe) Gill: What percentage of Somali-headed households in Minnesota are on food stamps?

Perhaps alliance isn't the best adjective to describe the left's relationship with Islam. I think most Muslims deep down, have no respect for leftist 'values', but they are willing to tolerate them in the useful you-know-what role to further their own religious agenda in the West. Leftists are a bit harder to pin down. They love Islam, but seem to be ignorant of the fact that Muslims don't feel the same way. Especially so when it comes to things like the trans/lgbt agenda and abortion. When push comes to shove, the left will probably back down from the Islamists because they are terrified of being called Islamophobic. Kind of what happened in Hamtramck. A staunchly Democrat city where 4 out of 5 on the Hamtramck City Council members are Muslim. After they were elected, they removed pride flags which please the lgbt community(overwhelmingly left), but they didn't put up much of a fuss about it.

But there is more of an alliance between the left and radical Islam. Any time there is some kind of Islamist terrorist attack, it is the left that usually is the first to cry 'ISLAMOPHOBIA'. https://fcpp.org/2025/03/12/how-radical-leftists-and-islamists-united-against-western-civilization/ https://www.news18.com/opinion/opinion-whats-behind-the-left-islamist-contract-9397481.html Personally, I think it's absurd to consider Islamic violence as far-right since those who support Islamic terrorism despise Western values. Many on the left even despise the West.
