The Liberals of Canada have fallen out of favor, as evidenced by party’s defeat in the special election. Toronto – St. Paul’s had been filled by Liberals since 1993, but has been overtaken by Conservatives. We see this trend happening throughout the world as the politics have shifted so far left that the people have been swayed like a pendulum to the opposite side.
Angus Reid released a poll earlier in the week to ask Canadian’s who they’d like to replace Prime Minister Dictator Justin Trudeau. There was not enough support for any replacement to indicate that the Liberals could win, with Conservatives overpowering the Liberal Party by a 21-point gap. “Canadians are more likely than not to say rumoured successors such as Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, former Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney, Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc and President of the Treasury Board Anita Anand would drive them away from the party,” the Angus Reid poll found.
Bad news for the Liberal Party as they were positioning Freeland, a fellow World Economic Forum zealot, to be Trudeau’s successor.
The poll asked undecided voters why they were hesitant to support the Liberal Party and it comes down to results. About 31% said they simply do not want Justin Trudeau to lead, with another 29% citing government spending as their main issue. Simply wait until the impact of the capital gains taxes are felt, which I believe will cause far more people to flee the Liberal Party and never look back.
Two out of five (37%) voters are leaning toward the Liberal Party, but almost half (48%) of those voters say the current administration has not made any meaningful issues on any matter that they find important such as housing, price stability, or health care. What could the Liberals do within the next year to solve these issues? Trudeau has certainly had enough time to address these issues, but instead, he has only exacerbated them.
Yet, 60% of Canadians said they are not fully locked into one party over another. More Conservatives (65%) said they will vote for their party regardless, with only 38% of Liberals feeling the same and 30% of New Democrats.
Overall, 60% of voters cited the cost of living and runaway inflation as their top concerns. This is the same concern for people throughout the West, be it in Canada, the United States, or anywhere in the EU. The talking heads can tell us our economies are well and good all they want but the people see their quality of life declining as a direct result of government policies. We listen when our governments announce endless aid packages to foreign nations with no concern for their countries. The people are simply exhausted by the current world leaders and are seeking a change. Will the establishment under the thumb of globalists permit the people to vote for a new authority? The months ahead shall be interesting.

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, Socrates has been so bearish on CNN’s owner, Warner Brothers, and the dabate is so rigged that other networks are even up in arms over CNN’s rules. We sold down all our institutional holdings in Warner Brothers, thanks to Socrates. Do you think this stock will collapse due to this debate that looks as corrupt as the New York courts?
Anonymous
ANSWER: The problem with Warner Brothers is it appears to be not just fully on board with the WOKE agenda that is reflected in its price decline, but its CEO and president, David Zaslav, may be part of this coincidence with those in the White House who are also Jewish with heritage back to Ukraine who claim their families were persecuted by the Russians for being Jewish at the start of the Russian Revolution in 1905. Even Wikipedia states: “His family was part of the diaspora from Poland and Ukraine.”
This raises some questions about whether Zaslav has been using Warner Brothers for personal biases against Russia and, thus, Trump. CNN’s anchor hosting this debate compared Trump to Hitler. If anyone did that to Biden, it would be in the headlines everywhere. We cannot say what Zaslav’s motivations have been one way or the other. However, his management of Warner Brothers does not appear to be in the best interest of shareholders. A CEO should be impartial, like a judge. Personal views do not belong in the boardroom or on the Nightly News. That is what OpEds are for – not anchors.
The major support lies at $5.10, and an annual closing below that for 2024 will be devastating. It is interesting that we have a Panic Cycle this month, living up with the CNN debate, but then again in January. Institutional investors have been dumping Warner Brothers big time. The CNN rulesand restrictions they put on other networks are trying to create a monopoly on the debate, and rejecting any criticism of CNN staff is more like Pravda of Communist Russia days. It will be a hit job to interfere in the 2024 elections because Warner Brothers is so far left their stock is collapsing amid a great bull market. Why ANYONE would own anything of this company is just amazing. I guess they just hate Trump and see this as paying for his destruction rather than an investment.

Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks alerted the public to a new threat to national security. No, the threat is not coming from a foreign entity or nation. The threat does not involve terrorism or the rising crime rates across all US cities. Biden’s Pentagon is deeply concerned about policies for nonbinary service members.
“We’ve heard concerns about … policies focused on the needs of nonbinary service members. Please know our commitment is resolute, just as it has been over the past three-and-a-half years, to continue our progress in full alignment with our focus on readiness and our focus on the well-being of our people, on which our readiness depends,” Hicks said. The Pentagon clarified her position to Fox News by stating the highest level of America’s defense intelligence is focused on its “all-volunteer force” to ensure its readiness to mobilize.
Now, the entire transgender agenda has been presented to the public in a way where children and adults who do not identify as their birth gender may become suicidal if we do not show blind compassion. The Pentagon is certainly not concerned about mental health, just look at how they have abandoned American veterans combatting various ailments from the wars the neocons create. I believe the Biden Administration has been obsessed with transgenderism for three reasons.
The first reason is that LGBTQ issues have become the latest trendy topic of divisive politics. We are no longer men and women. Gender must be a wide spectrum with no clear definition. This ties into reason number two where you can simply forget the nuclear family ever existed as the pillar of our culture. Everyone plays the same uniform role in society and there is no need for trust or loyalty to begin in the household. Both parents must work in this economy, as it provides the government with double the taxation. The public schools may indoctrinate and program the children as they see fit. Yet another reason why they are asking kindergarteners to choose their pronouns, read books questioning the nature of “boys” and “girls,” and are implementing laws so that parents cannot know what goes on at school as they work for their paycheck-to-paycheck life.
The third reason is something sinister that will come about after the next election. There are plans behind the curtain to draft women for the first time in American history. They are already asking women in European countries to sign up for military service. A woman who I know in Germany told me that she knows people up to the age of 59 who have been asked to register for armed services.
We are all “equal” so we should all be willing to die in the next war. The public sector will look after the children while the women are gone. Even Justice Jackson on the Supreme Court, Biden’s only appointee, has refused to define the term “woman” as they are being erased from our society under the guise of equality. The woke movement is not in favor of a subset pocket of individuals in our society. The government has been bashing these terms into our minds under Biden for a reason.
Pro-Palestinian protestors have been wreaking havoc in US cities for a cause they do not properly understand. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has proved to the nation that his idea of justice equates to demonizing and prosecuting his political opponents while turning an eye to real crimes committed in favor of left-leaning policies.
After illegally camping on the grounds of Columbia University for weeks, over 40 protestors broke into the university and barricaded themselves inside. In the process, they kidnapped several staff members who were forbidden to leave the building that they sealed with zip ties, chairs, tables, and any barricades they could find. The protestors removed security cameras in the building. Students were unable to attend their own graduation ceremony. Columbia President Minouche Shafik called the incident“a violent act that put our students at risk.” Although the police arrested 44 people, Bragg has decided not to prosecute the majority of those responsible.
Yet, Bragg has been relentless in prosecuting former President Donald Trump for non-violent perceived offenses that he had to fabricate in order to create a case. Senator Ted Cruz spoke out against Bragg, noting that Democrats across the US are turning a blind eye to the crimes of pro-Palestinian crooks. “The Democrats you elected and put in charge, they support the radicals and they refuse to prosecute them.You know what, you do that in Texas, you do that in Florida, you do that in Georgia, you do that in Alabama, you will be arrested and you will be prosecuted. There is a consequence if you elect Republicans who actually believe in prosecuting criminals,” Cruz added.
College campuses have turned into circuses, overtaken by protests that turn into riots. Where have we seen this before? Precisely the last election cycle where the Democrats kneeled before statues of George Floyd and permitted the Black Lives Matter gangs to burn down their very own cities. One would hope the rioters do not take the violence to the same extreme as the last election cycle where looting was permitted and the police were utterly unable to act amid calls to defund the police. But it is not looking good as tensions are rising between two groups of thought in this nation.
I would encourage those interested in the truth behind these deliberate acts of civil unrest to read my article on the Cloward-Priven strategy.
The four steps of the Cloward-Piven Strategy: 1. Overload and Break the Welfare System 2. Have Chaos Ensue 3. Take Control in the Chaos 4. Implement Socialism and Communism through Government Force
Those in charge like Bragg have taken matters to step four as they are taking control amid the chaos. They have long allowed the chaos to ensue. Now, they will implement restrictions to “protect” the nation from wrongdoers in our midst. The problem becomes that the prosecutors believe riots in the name of liberal social causes are fair, and gathering of like-minded conservatives pose a threat to national security.
We know that these organized groups have been funded by Democrat-backed super PACs and philanthropists like Soros, who openly speak of meddling in our elections. There is a concerted effort to destabilize the United States ahead of this election. The rule of law has been lost, and half of the country is considered a threat.
Our computers are predicting a major twist come September ahead of the election. Joe Biden simply cannot win fairly and the establishment would never permit Trump back into the Oval Office as he would have most of them arrested and halt plans for the Great Reset. The coming months will be extremely volatile as the left grows increasingly tyrannical.
Liberals everywhere have been trying to combine Pride month with Islamic causes such as the free Palestine movement. There have been instances across the UK, Canada, the US, and all of the West where pro-LGBTQ protestors have been assaulted when attempting to join Palestinian protests. The woke justice warriors glue themselves to every social cause without understanding the meaning behind it.
The free Palestine movement is NOT a woke social justice cause. There are numerous gays for Palestine groups emerging, which would be like chickens for Chic-fil-A. The social justice warriors could wave the Ukrainian flag and tout anti-Russian rhetoric freely without understanding the root cause of the war. Muslims are attempting to correct the far-left who mistakenly believes they are tolerant or accepting of the gay community.
Homosexuality is not permitted in Islam or the majority of Islamic countries. The offense of loving someone of the same sex is often punishable by death. Earlier in the month, a man attempted to open the country’s first gay club in the same city where Osama bin Laden was allegedly killed. Pakistan punishes homosexuality with a minimum two-year prison sentence that could be extended for a lifetime. This mistaken leftist was not jailed but rather committed to a mental hospital for even proposing such an idea. Clearly, he could not be of the right state of mind.
It is illegal to be gay in Palestine, with a possible punishment of up to 10 years. If Hamas catches you, then you’re dead. The law will look away if someone is murdered for homosexuality. In 2016, Hamas killed one of its own top officials for homosexual activities. Palestine’s woes have absolutely no correlation to the pride movement in the West, where people are permitted to express themselves however they see fit through the protection they have under the laws of the countries they hate.
It feels as if liberalism, at its extreme, has become a growing mental health epidemic. There is no logic or individual thought present. Far-left liberalism has become a trend of being the most oppressed among society. No one has a clear image of self or identity. They do not even know who they are supporting or why, but they insist you support whatever cause they have taken up for unknown reasons. They insist it is taught at schools to children. All of this is absolutely absurd, and yet no one is permitted to question it without being labeled intolerant.

Mike Morell was the Deputy CIA Director when the Benghazi attack happened under Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. {GO DEEP} Clinton and CIA Director Leon Panetta used Qatar to organize the sale of shoulder fired missiles to al-Qaeda in Libya. At the time of the Benghazi attack Ambassador Chris Stephens was working with the CIA in Eastern Libya trying to buy-back the missiles.
General David Petraeus became CIA Director shortly before the 9-11-12 Benghazi attack (Panetta moved to Defense Secretary) and had no risk from the previous missile sales as they took place before his tenure. This made Petraeus a risk.
After Benghazi, the Intelligence Community, supported by Mike Morell, quickly organized a removal operation to get rid of Petraeus using the blackmail they held over him from CBS correspondent Paula Broadwell.
Petraeus was threatened and eventually removed, Mike Morell took his place as Acting CIA Director to protect the CIA, Hillary Clinton, Leon Panetta and the larger Obama administration, from the aftermath of the Benghazi mess.
After the cleanup operation was successful, Morell then went to work for Hillary Clinton and CBS. Morell is a deeply professional liar. He knows I watch him.
When working for Hillary Clinton in August of 2016, Mike Morell published the first outline of the Trump-Russia collusion conspiracy in the New York Times. It was all a lie; we all know it – no one ever held him to account.
Four years later, in the 2020 presidential election cycle Mike Morell did it again; this time organizing the 51 intelligence officers to claim the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation. Morell led this effort with the State Dept and CIA. Again, it was all a lie; we all know it – no one ever held him to account, and Mike Morell remains working for CBS to this day.
2024 is another presidential election year. The problem for the Intelligence Community (IC), is their prior lies have caught up with them. They cannot lie Biden back into office. The IC needs something else, something more severe. Something more dramatic. Mike Morell is now saying a terrorist attack is about to happen on USA soil. WATCH:
[TRANSCRIPT] – MARGARET BRENNAN: We’re joined now by former CIA Deputy Director, Mike Morell. He’s also our CBS News senior national security contributor. Good to have you here.
MIKE MORELL: Good to be here, Margaret.
MARGARET BRENNAN: You just had that Foreign Affairs article that got all this attention, “The Terrorism Warning Lights are Blinking Red Again.” You compare the moment we are in now to what happened in the lead up to 9/11. And I want to play something FBI director Chris Wray said earlier this month.
[START SOUND ON TAPE]
FBI DIRECTOR CHRISTOPHER WRAY: Our most immediate concern has been that individuals or small groups will draw a twisted inspiration from the events in the Middle East to carry out attacks here at home. But now, on top of that, increasingly concerning is the potential for a coordinated attack here in the homeland, not unlike the ISIS-K attack we saw at the Russia concert hall back in March.
[START END ON TAPE]
MARGARET BRENNAN: That’s chilling. The White House says the president is briefed regularly on threats. If that is true, do you think he’s doing enough?
MIKE MORELL: Hard for me to say whether he’s doing enough because a lot of what needs to be done we wouldn’t see publicly. What I would say is, I ran into a lot of current- former intelligence- current intelligence officers and current policymakers. After we published the article, the response was almost universal. And we’re glad you wrote this. It’s really important. I read that as maybe there’s a lack of sense of- of a sense of urgency here. And that’s really important.
MARGARET BRENNAN : A lack of sense of urgency among members of the public? Or the government?
MIKE MORELL: The administration. Yeah. And Congress, quite frankly. There needs to be a sense of urgency about this. And I think the American public needs to understand what the threat is. That’s why we called for a public congressional hearing just on the terrorist threats to the homeland. Right, not a hearing on threats broadly, but threats to the homeland. And then we need to hear what the administration is doing about this in a broad sense, right. Not the details, but in a broad sense.
MARGARET BRENNAN: Well, I asked the chair of the House Intelligence Committee, Republican Mike Turner, about exactly your proposal, and he- he really kind of dismissed it. He said, Oh, we’ve covered that.
(CROSSTALK)
MIKE MORELL: He said- we already covered that. They haven’t.
MARGARET BRENNAN: Right, he did call for the administration to declassify information. Our colleague, Sam Vinograd who ran vetting at the border for DHS, said basically that the information that feeds those vetting lists, the watch lists, is dependent on how much good intelligence is collected, and that has been under-resourced. Do you agree with that?
MIKE MORELL: I- I agree with that 100%. We’ve shifted resources from the counterterrorism community to the China community. Now, that’s understandable to some degree, it’s been significant. So I think there’s a cost to the intelligence we’re collecting. The vetting system beyond not having the information- the vetting system does not provide all of the information that the government has. There was just a DHS inspector general report that outlined all the problems with the vetting system. So it’s lack of information and it is the system itself.
MARGARET BRENNAN: That- and we have it on a graphic, the report said Customs and Border Protection could not access all federal data necessary to enable complete screening and vetting of non-citizens seeking admission into the United States. This is the government saying we can’t vet everyone properly.
MIKE MORELL: Right. And Customs and Border doesn’t have the technology, right? To even connect. There are all sorts of issues here that need to be resolved.
MARGARET BRENNAN: Mike Morell, stay with us. I have to take a break but there’s much more I want to talk to you about.
[COMMERCIAL BREAK]
MARGARET BRENNAN: Welcome back to Face The Nation. We return now to our conversation with CBS News senior national security contributor, Mike Morell. Mike, I want to ask you about some video that CBS broadcasted earlier this week, 60 Minutes obtained it. It’s Saudi national Omar al-Bayoumi walking around the US Capitol back in 1999. We’re seeing that video now. It was shot within 90 days of the time when senior al Qaeda planners were deciding on 9/11 targets according to the FBI. At the time you were at the CIA. We know now the FBI identified this man, al-Bayoumi, as an intelligence operative with close ties to two of the 9/11 hijackers. But in that 9/11 commission report it said there was no credible evidence that he was a violent extremist or aided extremists. Now that you have seen this video, what do you think it reveals?
MIKE MORELL: No doubt in my mind, that it is a casing video, that it is a casing video for some sort of terrorist attack. Number one. Number two, pretty clear to me that al-Bayoumi was- was either working for al Qaeda, or was Al Qaeda. Did he know about the 9/11 attacks? Probably not. Did he know that the two individuals he was interacting with were 9/11 hijackers? Probably not. But- but no doubt in my mind that al Qaeda tasked him to do this casing video. The video is chilling. It’s chilling in terms of what he was- what he was videotaping, his narration over the top of it which- which is part what tells you it was a casing video. And his- his- his extremist comments. Let me just give you two examples, Margaret. On- on the casing part. At one point he says I will get over, he’s looking at the Washington Monument, I will get over there and I will report. I will report to you in detail what is there. He’s talking to somebody, right? He’s- and- and he’s talking about a plan–
MARGARET BRENNAN: — Not like a tourist would?
MIKE MORELL: Not like a tourist video. And then in terms of the extremism, he’s- he’s- he’s looking at the Capitol. And he says they say that our kids are demons. However, these are the demons, what he’s looking at.
MARGARET BRENNAN: So the FBI concluded he was not a threat. The 9/11 commission report concluded he was not a threat. You’re saying it’s clear he was Al Qaeda and living under the noses and examination of law enforcement undetected. He’s now living in Saudi Arabia as we speak. That’s pretty- that’s a pretty big oversight by US law enforcement and intelligence. Did the CIA know about this video?
MIKE MORELL: We did not. You know, I’m 99.9% confident that we did not have this video. I was the President’s briefer at the time. If somebody had shown me this video, I would have shown it to the President.
MARGARET BRENNAN: It was, as I understand it, UK officials- UK intelligence that scooped up this video?
MIKE MORELL: Yes, just so- so- so when he left the United States, he went to the UK. And after- after 9/11, the FBI discovered that he had signed- helped- helped- helped the two 9/11 hijackers get their first apartment. He- and the FBI learned that they learned that he was in the UK. So they go to the UK Government and they say- they share all this information. The British government arrests him, detains him, interrogates him, gets all this material. They say they provided it back to the FBI.
MARGARET BRENNAN: And it just stayed at the FBI.
MIKE MORELL: It looks- it looks that way.
MARGARET BRENNAN: A lot more to come on this including on 60 Minutes in the fall. Thank you so much for your analysis Mike Morell. We’ll be right back.

Bad news for the Democrats – their only single-voter issue seems to be the lowest priority among voters. The Democrats have long used the Roe v Wade battle as their final speaking point to attract voters. A new June Cygnal survey found that Americans are understandably more concerned with other issues plaguing the nation, and abortion will not be the focal point that they had hoped.
The Democrats, especially the likes of Hillary Clinton, tote abortion as their saving grace. Clinton has created merchandise and slogans about protecting women’s rights, as if abortion will cause half of the population to vote blue. Illegal immigration was stated as the second highest priority for voters, with 19.7% of voters voicing concerns. I began to write an article about the ongoing rapes across the globe where migrant men are attacking young girls but was too disgusted to finish the article. Look it up for yourselves if you don’t have a weak stomach. The migrant crisis is the main threat not only to global economies but to women’s rights. These men are usually let free to commit yet another attack as it would be intolerant and racist to force a migrant to abide by the laws in the nation they chose to reside in.
Around 27.9% of respondents believe inflation and the overall economy is the biggest issue facing America. Americans are struggling to survive with personal debt rising to historic highs across all demographics and social classes. Black and Hispanic voters, who the Democrats believe must vote blue, notably stated that economic issues will be their top priority this November.
Climate change (5.9%), gun control (5.8%), and abortion (4.1%) are the main blue speaking points but Americans are growing less concerned about these issues. We are five months away from the election. The Democrats do not have a strong platform. They do not have a strong candidate. They simply cannot win this election fairly.
We are equal in all ways besides talent. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) announced that it will end its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs because they simply do not work. Faculty at MIT will no longer be required to attend race-based training or be screened for such during the hiring process.
MIT President Dr. Sally Kornbluth explained the obvious – looking at race alone does not attract the top candidates. Instead, it skews scores in favor of race, gender, or sexual orientation and the most qualified candidates are often overlooked due to reverse racism and open discrimination that is permitted toward majority groups.
“My goals are to tap into the full scope of human talent, to bring the very best to MIT, and to make sure they thrive once here,” Kornbluth said. “We can build an inclusive environment in many ways, but compelled statements impinge on freedom of expression, and they don’t work.”
DEI is akin to Affirmative Action on steroids. It permits the open discrimination of White and Asian straight males, plain and simple. This is another reason why we are seeing an outlash across US universities over the Palestine-Israel conflict of which they have no core understanding.
Bill Ackman wrote a piece on X that explains the situation well:
“I came to learn that the root cause of antisemitism at Harvard was an ideology that had been promulgated on campus, an oppressor/oppressed framework, that provided the intellectual bulwark behind the protests, helping to generate anti-Israel and anti-Jewish hate speech and harassment. Then I did more research. The more I learned, the more concerned I became, and the more ignorant I realized I had been about DEI, a powerful movement that has not only pervaded Harvard, but the educational system at large. I came to understand that Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion was not what I had naively thought these words meant.”
The schools, funded by the left, are training school faculty that the majority population is inherently bad and privileged. They pass that message down to the impressionable kids who either walk away with a sense of entitlement or a savior complex as if anyone cares when it actually comes to business. The most qualified and intelligent people will succeed in the real world. This is the entire issue with Critical Race Theory (CRT) as well since they are brainwashing children from the time they are five years old to believe their sex, gender, or skin color somehow puts them on a social caste system in America.
DEI operates on exclusivity and not inclusivity as it champions the notion of entitlement for a select few and is simply unethical. It has become a political weapon that the left will not allow to be questioned. If we want society to advance, we must accept that those who work hard and are born with natural talent and intelligence will excel. Identity politics use tools like DEI initiatives to divide the people when our neighbor is not the enemy.
