The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms has just hired Lindsay Shepherd as its first-ever campus free speech fellow-a role whose importance we're reminded of every time a professor opens his, her or, erm, xir mouth.
Case in point: MacEwan University professor Kristopher Wells said in response to the JCCF's announcement that Shepherd was only hired because of her "young white female face."
Radiohead frontman, Thom Yorke, has poured scorn on Prime Minister Theresa May's handling of Brexit, saying that some of her actions are "worthy of the early days of the Third Reich."
The 50-year-old rock star stormed Twitter to say that Miss May had used her position to "threaten chaos upon this land" and "bring into question the lives of millions in this country as a bargaining tool." He then proceeded to say that the "immense distress and suffering" facilitated by her highly ambiguous Brexit policy was comparable to "the early days of the Third Reich."
Comment: Oh dear.
"The farm economy's in pretty tough shape," said John Newton, chief economist at the American Farm Bureau Federation. "When you look out on the horizon of things to come, you start to see some cracks." Average farm income has fallen to near 15-year lows under president Donald Trump's policies, and in some areas of the country, farm bankruptcies are soaring. And with slightly higher interest rates, many don't see borrowing more money as an option. "A lot of farmers are going to give the president the benefit of the doubt, and have to date. But the longer the trade war goes on, the more that dynamic changes," said Brian Kuehl, executive director of Farmers for Free Trade, according to Politico.
With no end to the disastrous trade war in sight, many farmers have traveled to Washington to share their plights with the president himself hoping that he'll end the trade war that's exacerbating an already precarious food crisis. Farmers make up a fairly large chunk of president Trump's base, and an unwillingness to put food production in the United States first could be detrimental for Trump reelection chances in 2020. It could also be the beginning of a catastrophic food shortage.

Witness Laia Camps has described seeing many injured passengers, including children and elderly persons.

Anatoly Moskvin, a 52-year-old historian from the Russian city of Nizhny Novgorod, was arrested and sentenced to compulsory psychiatric treatment after two dozen mummified bodies were discovered at his apartment in 2011.
Last year, psychiatrists claimed that they had cured the man and recommended that he continue receiving treatment as an outpatient. However, they recently reversed their decision and demanded that his treatment be extended indefinitely.
However, the body-snatcher could now walk free on a technicality as the order keeping him in the secure hospital expired in December. With a court poised to rule on the issue, relatives of the deceased children whose bodies he took have expressed outrage at the prospect of his release.













Comment: That Mr Yorke thinks May's handling of Brexit is comparable to the Third Reich, of all the tragedies that befall our planet, clearly shows that people shouldn't pay too much heed to his opinion on the topic, or others: Radiohead's Thom Yorke gives supporters of BDS the finger during concert in Glasgow
