I chatted about Iraq’s plan to lower the age of marriage to include 9-year-old girls with women’s rights advocate Yasmine Mohammed, who escaped an abusive marriage to an al-Qaeda operative. She says Canada is rolling out the red carpet to radical Islam. nationalpost.com/opinion/canada…


Oh no. My old pal from Birmingham. A Post day-oner, with a dry wit and a tabloid nose for a story. He’d had health issues since 9/11 but I thought they were behind him. Travel well, Brum.

We’ve lost one of the best.

The Director of National Intelligence reading intel assessments that putin has not embraced the spirit of aloha

Dear Presidents Putin, Zelensky, and Biden. It’s time to put geopolitics aside and embrace the spirit of aloha, respect and love, for the Ukrainian people by coming to an agreement that Ukraine will be a neutral country—i.e. no military alliance with NATO or Russia—thus...



Twenty years ago, I remember saying about Carolyn Parrish that if your head's made of wax, don't walk in the sun. Nothing that has happened in the interim has given me grounds to change that opinion.

After re-posting this, I started losing hundreds of followers. Probably just a coincidence…

WATCH-- @ChrisMurphyCT: "This is an early effort to force Senate Republicans into utter and complete submission. If they do something as farcical as putting Matt Gaetz in as the Attorney General, then the game is over. There is nothing that they will not do."


Without irony, Sir Niall Ferguson celebrates the death of the Establishment and the rise of a counter-élite - people like Matt Gaetz and Tulsi Gabbard. He’s a long way from the south side of Glasgow.

'Not only has the "establishment" ... taken a big hit, but the incumbent elites that have led this establishment are being seriously threatened by the rise of a counter-elite. As the historian @nfergus put it, this election was also a victory for "the new generation of builders…

Late this afternoon, I had the opportunity to speak by phone w/ Mississauga Mayor @carolynhparrish I urged her to condemn the upcoming vigil for mass murderer and former Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, scheduled to take place in Mississauga on Nov 26. Shamefully, she repeatedly…


You couldn’t make it up. Vietnamese Canadians fled communism, now having their business expropriated without compensation by Ottawa. nationalpost.com/opinion/they-c…


The amendment introduced in the Iraqi parliament to permit older men to marry nine-year-old girls is an outrage that reflects the fact that Islamic scripture is considered the word of God. As I write in my new Substack: Islam needs its own reformation. substack.com/home/post/p-15…
