Yes, it is true.
I wrote to Vladimir Kozin today to ask if a certain theory I've pieced together was on the right path. He had sent an email around sharing the joy of Russians that their government had at long last recognized the two Donbass Republics - Lugansk and Donesk - as independent states. Great news Vladimir - congratulations I read today that Zelensky actually wanted this so that Ukraine would not have to implement Minsk agreements - plus all those votes in the Donbass would now be gone next presidential election time.

It is hard to ignore how poorly run Canada has becomeVictor Davis Hanson: Canada is now governed by absurdism, and it is symptomatic of an ailing Western elite. Liberal Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau last week invoked martial law to arrest and financially destroy truckers on the charge that their largely peaceful protests are “dismantling the Canadian economy” that had already been dismantled for two years under some of the most draconian lockdowns in the world. The trucker “sect,” Trudeau added, is guilty of felonious “unacceptable views.” But his rhetoric still cannot square the circle of demonizing vital workers while c... read more

Africa Must Not Abandon Palestine By Granting Israel Observer StatusAfrica is currently facing one of its most crucial decisions regarding Palestine and Israel. The repercussions of this decision could be as significant as the 1975 Resolution 77 (XII) by the Organization of African Unity – the precursor to the African Union – which recognized Zionism, Israel’s founding ideology, as a form of racism. This time around, however, it is Palestine, not Israel, that stands to lose. Israel’s attempt to gain observer status at the AU began years ago. For many years, most African countries have severed all ties with Israel in solidarity with Palestine and o... read more

Inside The Campaign To Abolish The Subminimum WageAs the economy recovers from a global pandemic, many business owners are pointing to labor shortages caused by the “Great Resignation” as a source of frustration. The term refers to the more than 33 million U.S. workers who have quit their jobs since the spring of 2021, largely due to low wages and burnout. The restaurant and service industry is experiencing one of the largest shockwaves to its workforce, adding just 108,000 jobs in January 2022, and remains 900,000 jobs short of where it was prior to the pandemic, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. But restaurant worke... read more

Very interesting .....
Over the weekend, when the Canadian government made their move to drive the trucker convoy out of Ottawa, folks in nearby North Bay discovered planes with markings from the UN were on the runway. I seriously doubt that UN planes land in North Bay, Canada very often. The police in Ottawa generally were dressed like this photo below. But then these strange looking uniformed units showed up to help push the trucker convoy out of Ottawa. Some of the protesters said they heard German being spoken by some of them. Does this mean that the UN is now being used to help parti... read more

U.S. Secretary of State Blinken Had No Answer When Asked On Why Putin Didn’t Escalate During The Trump Administration*WNU Editor:* President Trump constantly communicated with Russian President Putin during his Presidency to build and develop a personal relationship with the Russian leader to avoid situations like the one that is happening today. This is also how President Trump defused the crisis on the Korean peninsula. He worked hard at developing a personal relationship with the North Korean leader at a time when many thought a war was going to happen. International diplomacy is all about personal relations. Doubly so at a Presidential level. That is why we have Global summits and meet... read more

FL: How To Make "Don't Say Gay" Bill Worse
Florida's HB 1557 is a truly terrible bill that clamps down on any mention or discussion of LGBTQ topics though Kansas actually has a worse bill which would forbid any mention of LGBTQ topics of any sort at all. Perhaps that is what inspired the sponsor of the Florida bill to make matters worse. Last week the bill picked up 15 proposed amendments, most of which were attempts to mitigate the damage that the Don't Say Gay act would inflict. But Joe Harding, a co-sponsor of the original bill wanted to go in a different direction. The bill originally tempered its requirement that the ... read more
