Today, 12th October, we remember St Edwin of Northumbria (c. 586–633), Anglo-Saxon king, Christian convert and martyr of the early English Church 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Edwin ruled Northumbria during the 7th century and became one of the most powerful kings in Anglo-Saxon England. Originally a pagan, he embraced Christianity through the influence of his wife, Queen Æthelburh, and the missionary St Paulinus. On Easter Sunday in 627, Edwin was baptised at York in a wooden church dedicated to St Peter, on the site of the present York Minster. His conversion helped establish Christianity throughout Northumbria. Under his protection, Paulinus preached, baptised and founded Christian communities across the kingdom. On 12th October 633, Edwin was killed at the Battle of Hatfield Chase, fighting against the combined forces of the pagan King Penda of Mercia and Cadwallon of Gwynedd. Following his death, Edwin was venerated as a Christian martyr, and his remains were associated with York and Whitby. His feast day is observed on 12th October, remembering one of England's earliest Christian kings and his role in bringing the Christian faith to northern England🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Happy Columbus Day! Did you know we get the modern word for "cannibal" from Christopher Columbus? During his voyages in the West Indes, Columbus encountered a tribe called the Carib which he called the "Caniba". The Carib were a war like people who would frequently invade their neighboring tribes, kidnap the women and eat the men. The Spanish, being a God fearing Christian people, were disgusted by the evil practice of cannibalism and quickly moved to squash the Carib, largely subjugating them by the end of the 16th century. I think we can all agree that cannibalism has no place in the world and we owe Columbus a debt of gratitude for his role in bringing civilization to the new world.

Milei just told the UN the truth to its face. It failed at peace, then built a bureaucratic Leviathan to dictate how nations live. Soft on dictators and terrorists. Hard on the democracies that follow the rules. Agenda 2030. Gender politics. Climate extremism. Open borders. Then they doubled down with Agenda 2045. Worst: pandemic lockdowns that crushed jobs, wrecked kids’ education, and left millions to die alone. Not a health error. A control experiment. Fear was the weapon. The emergency ended. The power didn’t. That’s a leader. Not a diplomat reading talking points.

Milei called the UN a caste of fatally arrogant parasites to their faces yesterday. (it’s true) He said the organization is useless, that it sheltered dictatorships, let terrorism flourish, and spent fifty years passing Falklands resolutions that produced no consequences whatsoever. He called pandemic lockdowns a global experiment in social control disguised as science. He said the UN built a bureaucratic leviathan designed to control citizens’ lives beyond the mandate its founders gave it. On AI, he pledged minimal regulation, limited liability, and tax incentives instead of the pre-emptive oversight frameworks Europe is racing to impose. He closed by declaring Argentina unequivocally aligned with the West. But for some people, he’s not “libertarian” enough.

You don't compromise with evil. Socialism is directly evil. I refuse to accept anything from a sinister ideology that only works on paper.

Let’s be real: Canada and the U.S. are next door neighbors with an interconnected economy, shared supply chains, and a massive defense partnership. Trading across a land border with America just makes way more sense for Canadian jobs and daily life than trying to force a deep connection with a distant Europe.

🚨 GLOBALISM JUST DIED IN DAVOS Howard Lutnick just walked into the lion’s den — and told the World Economic Forum exactly what they didn’t want to hear. “Globalism has failed.” Not whispered. Not softened. Declared — on their own stage. He dismantled the entire WEF doctrine in minutes: • Offshoring hollowed out the West • Cheap labor destroyed innovation • Net Zero made Europe dependent on China • Sovereignty begins with borders • Nations must control their industry, energy, and medicine Then came the line that shook the room: “Why would Europe agree to Net Zero when they don’t even make a battery?” That’s the truth globalists can’t answer. Green agendas without industry. Climate pledges without sovereignty. Moral posturing while outsourcing power to Beijing. America First isn’t isolation. It’s independence. And Lutnick made it crystal clear: The old model is finished. The globalist experiment has failed. And the future belongs to nations that put their people first. Davos just heard the obituary — live.

I warned that the West was in danger. Today, the results speak for themselves. Mass invasion is not immigration, and those who refuse to integrate must be deported. LONG LIVE FREEDOM, DAMN IT...!!!

I said we would achieve a fiscal balance in our first year in office, and we achieved it in the first month. Today, we can say that we lifted fourteen million Argentines out of poverty. LONG LIVE FREEDOM, DAMN IT...!!!

Just common sense
ELON MUSK: “My political views are very centrist. They’re not far right. Frankly, calling them far right is an insult to history and an insult to many people. It is an outrageous falsehood. It’s completely absurd. I have literally stated my position, and I’ve been very clear about this: there need to be secure borders. If there’s an influx of immigrants, then they need to be people who agree with Western ideals and Western values. If there is long-term growth of people who do not, or in some cases are adamantly opposed to Western values, you are setting yourself up for civil war. This is obvious. A child can see this, but this is not a right wing view. I'm simply stating reality.”
