Maybe Canada won’t be joining the EU after all; well, not officially anyway
Mark Carney and the European Commission, represented by Ursula von der Leyen, are looking to deepen Canada’s strategic ties with the European Union (“EU”) through a proposed “associate membership” status, designed to bypass full EU accession while enhancing cooperation on defence, critical minerals, energy and AI.

Little-known rule could stop socialists from being sworn into Congress
A little-known congressional maneuver could block members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) from being sworn in as members of the House of Representatives next year, even if they win their elections on Tuesday. But an argument circulating in conservative circles posits that any member-elect can challenge another member-elect’s right to be sworn in, provided they have compiled evidence that that person would not uphold their oath. That would then lead to House-wide deliberations followed by a vote on whether that member-elect has a right to be sworn in.
Rabbi Kessin: Europe’s riots are Isaiah’s winepress, and Edom’s day of reckoning has arrived
As riots spread from Paris to Tirana, Rabbi Mendel Kessin says Europe is living out Isaiah’s vision of God treading the winepress of Edom. The UN walkout on Netanyahu, he says, sealed the verdict. A city hall burned in Limoges. Rioters broke into the Ohalei Yaakov synagogue in Paris’s 19th arrondissement and left holy books scattered across the floor. Jewish-owned shops went up in flames in Marseille, and a Reuters photographer captured the Palestinian flag flying beside the French tricolor. “We’re not looking here at the downfall of a nation,” Rabbi Kessin said. “We’re looking at the end of a civilization.” “There’s something going on now which I think everybody should certainly be aware of, and that is the nations of the world,” he said. “There’s a tremendous unrest, or I should even say upheaval, in Europe. “There certainly looks like we have an acceleration of what is going to happen at the end of time,” Rabbi Kessin added.
To end the war, end the Palestinians’ hope for victory –

Western Society Blindly Demands The Coexistence Of All Belief Systems While Pushing For The Extinction Of The One That Stands For Truth
The world is fast moving toward pushing for the extinction of the one true “religion of peace” due to Christianity’s claim to be the only path to heaven and its moral code, which runs contrary to the flow of popular thought. To see just how delusional our world has become, consider the way that many politicians and world leaders are protecting and even promoting the practice of Islam, which refuses to submit to non-Muslim governmental systems and is not simply a religion but a political system as well and promotes Sharia law. The world is readying itself for the ministry of the false prophet and his global religious system.

Nowadays, the spirit of ecumenical openness is so pervasive that one can’t be sure without clarification from the Vatican or bishops, & they weren’t forthcoming.

Texas is Confronting the Islamists; Other States Should Follow
