  1. If you're a Nazi, a KKK'er, an alt-right conspiracy kook, a white supremacist or militia member, FOX news is your go-to source for information. Nothing on FOX will ever challenge your world view, but will instead, reinforce it. FOX news is largely responsible for creating the environment in which Trump and his ilk thrive.

      FOX News doesn't need government subsidy to survive like the CBC.    Fox network also has much better programming than CBC dreck.   Fox content has better ratings....in Canada (Numeris).

      Hardly the point. If you made the Playboy channel free it'd have huge ratings, too. And have better content.

      It is always the point when comparisons are made to the crappy, state sponsored, state financed broadcaster of propaganda....the CBC.

  2. In the first 11 quarters of the Trump admin, GDP grew by an average of 2.64%; in the last 11 quarters of the Obama admin, GDP grew by 2.64%.

      The thing that gets me is I have no idea what Trudeau or Singh are doing on any given day (nor Scheer for that matter). I don't know what the NDP are up to or what speeches or demonstrations they're giving. I didn't even know what Scheer was up to. So how is it these frenzied ideologues have the time to avidly watch for any sign of some middling right winger giving a speech about something so they can show up howling and screaming insults and abuse?

  8. Markets were set to open sharply lower Monday after a bizarre press release from the U.S. Treasury secretary that formed a perfect capper to a year made strange by his boss Donald Trump.

    Steve Mnuchin released a statement Sunday (while vacationing in Mexico, no less) announcing that he had spoken with the major bank CEOs and confirmed that the major financial institutions had adequate capital. The strange part of this was that investors were not worried about bank liquidity until this statement came out.

    Famed economist Paul Krugman responded that “It’s as if Mnuchin was trying to create a panic’ and a twitter comedian noted that ‘Mnuchin has also confirmed that all the major hospitals have enough anti-zombie serum to go around.”

  9. Murray writes: “The interpretation of the world through the lens of ‘social justice,’ ‘identity group politics’ and ‘intersectionalism’ is probably the most audacious and comprehensive effort since the Cold War at creating a new ideology.” Christianity has been spurned, but the religious impulse is inherent and abhors a vacuum. The “religion” of social justice, Murray observes, poured itself into the handy campus vessel of Marxism with remarkable speed.

      Sounds about right. What's ironic and absurd is that the left throws out accusations of collusion with Russia, and demonizes Russia, yet their very own ideology is perfectly aligned with it. Vlad Putin must be laughing his A off, every single day.

      Funny how the same people who would wail with disgust about the timing of dirty political smears if they involve one of their guys are the first to partake when it involves the other guys. A true sign of low character, whether the rumours are true or not.

      This is an election based on buying votes and smearing opponents. And the Liberals and NDP are the ones who made it that way.

      Impeachment was about collusion related to the 2016 campaign.  But maybe they should.  As long as they investigate Biden’s Ukraine and China financial ties.

      Impeachment was about withholding congressionally approved military aid to make a country investigate a political rival.

      Apparently Attorney General Barr disagrees with your legal expertise concerning the Westfall Act of the United States. Argus.

      Oh and she photo-bombed Trump once back in the nineties. He doesn't remember it. So what?

      The Bergdorf Goodman dressing room where this allegedly happened is heavily monitored by video. There is no record of the two ever being there together.

      This is the sixth well known man Carroll has claimed sexually assaulted her.

    3. Argus

      I see. So there's absolutely nothing to her claim? Why, then is the Justice Department trying to substitute the United States government for Trump as the entity which would have to pay if she won her suit?

    4. Infidel Dog

      Infidel Dog

      The Attorney General explained that for you. 

      There's a thing in American law called the Westfall act used by American presidents from Bush to Obama. (Check above for the link):

      Quote

      The Federal Employees Liability Reform and Tort Compensation Act of 1988, (Westfall Act), 28 U.S.C. § 2679, amended the Federal Tort Claims Act to provide for the substitution of the United States as a defendant in any action where one of its employees is sued for damages as a result of an alleged common law tort committed by the employee within the scope of his or her employment.
