A 'Freedom Convoy' of trucks joined by thousands of demonstrators brought Ottawa to a virtual standstill for a second day on Sunday as they protested Canada's vaccine mandates, as other sympathetic truckers blocked a border highway into the United States. The truckers say there is no 'end date' in sight and plan to stay in the capital 'for as long as it takes' and until the Canadian government flips and withdraws its policy on vaccine mandates. The chaos clogged the capital's downtown near parliament throughout the weekend and brought criticism from officials, including Ottawa's mayor who said residents were 'prisoners in their own home.'

Prisoners in their own homes? You mean like how they have been, off and on, for the last 2 years? Talk about shooting yourself in the foot, Mayor.

Hit submit too soon. Cheered by hundreds? Perhaps the DM should get some of that software which allows them to estimate crowd sizes. In truth, the truckers have probably been cheered by hundreds of thousands.

Please forgive third post but I finally managed to scroll through all of the photos and I have a very strong feeling that the Nazi and Confederate flags are being carried by a handful of FBI agents sent up there by TaliBiden and Garland.

I've been following this very closely and nobody has promised "chaos"... just the provocateur's and of course, the media. The media has been caught red handed trying to stir up trouble. Their media is just as evil as our media.

Re #8. I don't know what the Canadian equivalent of the FBI/KGB is, probably RCMP, I'd guess, but who ever it is, I'll bet that they are the ones with the Nazi and Confederate flags. Got to put out some literal 'false flag' folks to smear the crowd resisting tyranny.

We're with you Canada and we're praying for your freedom! Isn't it amazing how humans long to be free and will do whatever to gain that freedom? I think that freedom is God breathed into every human soul. Doesn't our Statute of Liberty embody that? If Trudeau was smart, he would stop all the mandates. Even the U.K. has now stopped all mandates. Get a clue Trudeau from Boris.

Uhmmm..Logic would suggest that the Nazi flag is to call TRUDEAU a Nazi,RE: HIS totalitarian dictatorial actions. Not voicing support for Nazi's. No media mention made of the LARGE percentage of the crowd that are indigenous peoples. Or the FACT that someone really has to have screwed up badly to incite the public anger of ANY Canadian, let alone thousands of them from Sea to Sea.

Former Dolphins coach Flores sues NFL

Former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores is suing three NFL teams and the league itself, which he claims “is racially segregated and is managed much like a plantation”. Flores, who is Black, was surprisingly fired by the Dolphins last month despite leading the team to back-to-back winning seasons for the first time since 2003. The lawsuit, which was filed in Manhattan federal court on Tuesday, seeks unspecified damages.(Snip)Flores says afterwards he was “treated with disdain and held out as someone who was noncompliant and difficult to work with” and was subsequently cast as an “an angry Black man”.

Just six of the 109 affordable homes Brad Pitt's Make It Right Foundation built for low-income residents in New Orleans following the devastation of Hurricane Katrina in 2005 are still in livable condition nearly 20 years later. A vast majority of the homes, which were built for $26.8 million, are riddled with construction-related problems that have led to mold, termites, rotting wood and flooding, urban geographer Judith Keller wrote for Market Watch, and as of early 2022, six of the homes are vacant because of mold, rot and other structural issues after they were built without essential needs for the city's sub-tropical climate.

New York—After inspiring dancers around the world, Misty Copeland is sharing the stories of the trailblazing ballerinas who’ve inspired her. Copeland sat down with PIX11 News to discuss her latest book, “Black Ballerinas: My Journey to Our Legacy.” “I wouldn’t be in this position if it weren’t for so many that slowly opened doors,” Copeland said.

San Quentin death row - where California's most macabre and twisted killers were once caged - is being shuttered and converted into a 'positive, healing environment.'The prison ward is seeped in dark history dating back to March 3, 1893 when the first of 215 prisoners was hung. It has since housed notorious murderers including Charles Manson, Richard 'the night stalker' Ramirez, and William Bonin, a serial killer who killed at least 21 young men and boys.It's the current home of Scott Peterson, who was sentenced to death in 2005 for the murder of his wife Laci and their unborn son.

Libby was convicted in 2007 of obstruction of justice and other crimes related to a leak of the identity of CIA agent Valerie Plame Wilson. The conviction was widely viewed as a miscarriage of justice, especially because Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage later admitted that he was the likely source of the leak, not Libby. President George W. Bush commuted Libby’s sentence, but despite the urging of then-Vice President Cheney, he declined to issue a formal pardon for his aide. It was only Trump who pardoned Libby in 2018, taking the political heat for doing so and standing up for Libby’s record of public service.
