1. The UK did pass a law making public displays of religion illegal in public parks. As one has come to expect, the law was likely enacted to stop Islamic acts of manifest destiny disguised as religious observance. But also as we expect, it is enforced against people who actually obey laws and not against muslims, so the net effect is muslims are the only ones who can do public prayer and ritual in UK parks. Interestingly, Islam is the only religion that uses religious ritual as a beard for aggressive control of an area.
2. The Wax my Ba**s guy is back in the news again.
Pretty agile for a guy usually using a mobility scooter. Goes a long way to support the Eric Carmen theory of Yaniv’s motives.
(It is really worth seeing the whole episode of South Park to really appreciate how accurately they captured Yaniv’s motives and nature many many years before Yaniv actually came on the scene)
3. “Green” Food Company Whose Toxic Products Killed 23 People Blames Trump for Iran Shooting Down Jet
When a topic trends on Twitter, some brands try to jump on it to promote their own products. This is usually followed by a much deserved firestorm of vitriol and hatred.
Maple Leaf Foods, which boasts of being the world’s first major carbon-neutral company, but neglects to mention its history of killing its consumers, decided to jump on the story of Iran shooting down a passenger plane, in order to blame President Trump.
After tweeting a lot of stuff about its environmental and sustainable green nonsense, the Twitter account was hijacked by its billionaire CEO.

5. IG Report Reveals Steele Funneled Claims Through John McCain After FBI Dropped Him
Late Senator John McCain provided disgraced former FBI chief James Comey with five separate reports from Christopher Steele that the FBI didn’t previously possess related to unsubstantiated allegations of collusion between Russia and President Trump’s 2016 campaign, the Justice Department’s recent Inspector General report revealed.
There have long been questions about why it was necessary for McCain to pass Steele’s anti-Trump dossier to Comey on December 9, 2016, several weeks after the November 2016 presidential election. By then, Steele had already met numerous times with FBI agents to provide them with his controversial reports. Steele, however, was terminated as an FBI source in the fall of 2016 because he spoke to the news media.
The IG report discloses that McCain gave five new Steele reports to Comey that the FBI did not previously possess, showing that McCain served as a conduit for Steele’s information to reach the FBI even after the British ex-spy was formally cut off as an FBI source.
It is not clear whether McCain knew at the time that Steele had previously been terminated as an FBI source.

7. Germany: Terrorists planning attack on synagogue arrested
Authorities in Germany arrested suspected Islamist terrorists in a series of raids across the country Tuesday morning, AFP reported.
Chechen nationals suspected of being part of a terrorist plot were arrested in police raids in Berlin, Brandenburg, North Rhine-Westphalia, and Thuringia, the Berlin attorney general’s office announced in a tweet.
“On suspicion of planning a serious violent act endangering the state, search warrants are being executed in Berlin, Brandenburg, North Rhine-Westphalia and Thuringia.”
The suspects arrested in the raids range in age from 23 to 28, and according to Berlin police are suspected of “having scouted locations” for a possible terrorist attack.
Police say their suspicions regarding the terror cell were first raised after one of the terrorist’s cell phones was examined during a routine police stop. Pictures on the phone raised officers’ suspicions, leading to a wider investigation culminating in Tuesday’s raids.
According to Der Spiegel, one of the targets the terror cell was considering for their planned attack is a Berlin synagogue. Video footage of the synagogue taken by cell members was found by police, the report said.
8. Colorado mass stabber looks more and more like islamic jihad
Jonny Seaton, 20, said he tried to help that wounded man and that, at some point, the suspect asked him if he was a Christian.
Seaton said he said yes but his fiancee answered no. He said the man then attacked them both. He said the suspect held a knife to his neck and slashed his ear when he tried to escape. His fiancee charged the suspect and he slashed her face.
“He had some super-human speed to him or something,” Seaton said.
The rampage started around 1:30 a.m. and ended about 40 minutes later when the suspect was restrained by some victims.
Five of the eight people wounded were released from the hospital within several hours of being attacked. None of the injuries were life threatening, police spokesman Lt. Jim Sokolik said.
There does not to appear to be any relationship between the suspect and his victims, he said.

10. Project Veritas reveals Bernie Sanders’ education policies that smack of communist reeducation camps.
Yesterday was eerily slow. I should have learned by now that meant today would be crazy and horrifying. Item 10, its very important to understand that Sanders and the DSA really are Stalinists. This needs to be clear to everyone. If they still want it, then give them an island and let them inflict it on each other.
Thank you M., Wrath of Khan, Richard, Xanthippa, ET., Gates of Vienna, Medforth, Ipostle, PC., and everyone who took the time and effort to send in materials of interest to the general community.
Things are building to a major explosion, one that will shake the world and force massive changes on society if freedom is to survive.
Not public parks but Royal Parks. I think that was Hyde Park (London edition), which is a Royal Park.
