Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) is set to speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) this week, the chair of the group that organizes the gathering announced on Monday.

Gabbard, who once sought the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, will address the annual conference's Ronald Reagan Dinner on Saturday night. Conservative media personality Glenn Beck is set to give the keynote address during the dinner.

Gabbard's scheduled appearance at CPAC, a gathering of conservative activists and elected officials, is unusual for a Democrat, though it won't be the first time she's rankled her own party.

The former Hawaii congresswoman has repeatedly criticized members of her own party, most recently President Biden, whom she accused earlier this month of unnecessarily escalating tensions with Moscow amid a possible Russian invasion of Ukraine.

CPAC is set to begin on Thursday in Orlando, Fla. Among the other speakers scheduled to address the conference are former President Trump, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, all three of whom are seen as potential contenders for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.

Hong Kong will test its entire population of 7.5 million people for Covid-19 in March, the city's leader said Tuesday, as it grapples with its worst outbreak driven by the omicron variant.

The population will be tested three times in March, Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam said. She said testing capacity will be increased to 1 million a day or more.

"Since we have a population of some 7 million people, testing will take about seven days," she said.

Do you want Klaus Schwab's world?

The time for a final decision is arriving quickly.

Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum (WEF) have groomed certain politicians such as brand new de facto dictator Justin Trudeau[1] and notorious bank account freezer Chrystia Freeland[2] of Canada, as well as 2-year experienced dictator Jacinda Ardern[3] of New Zealand and outgoing German Chancellor Angela Merkel,[4] among others, to help create a dictatorship world.[5] This would have seemed a not so credible claim until what happened earlier in Australia and New Zealand and in Germany, and what just now happened quickly in Canada, accelerating over recent days. Canada was a partial democracy, and suddenly now seems to have become a full-on dictatorship, as had previously happened to Australia and New Zealand, as well as Germany and Austria.

This important analysis by political commentator Naomi Wolf of Trudeau's coup, a hemisphere-shattering event,[6] is strikingly different than most other analyses of new COVID era tyranny that I've read, because it takes a long forward view of what is likely to happen next, based on what has just happened in Canada, as Canadians and the world are blindsided by the fully exposed power grab of this sudden coup. Wolf reminds us of the tragic histories of democracies that fell to dictatorship and the order of events that have become a pattern. Next up, in a worst case scenario, either Parliament arrests Trudeau, or Trudeau arrests opposing members of Parliament, if history is any guide. In other countries the war between liberty and tyranny is ongoing, but has now arrived at fulminant and decisive events in at least the above five countries.

Switzerland at risk of EU blacklist after Credit Suisse leak

The fallout from a huge leak of Credit Suisse banking data threatened to damage Switzerland's entire financial sector on Monday after the European parliament's main political grouping raised the prospect of adding the country to a money-laundering blacklist.

The European People's party (EPP), the largest political grouping of the European parliament, called for the EU to review its relationship with Switzerland and consider whether it should be added to its list of countries associated with a high risk of financial crime.

Experts said that such a move would be a disaster for Switzerland's financial sector, which would face the kind of enhanced due diligence applied to transactions linked to rogue nations including Iran, Myanmar, Syria and North Korea.

"When Swiss banks fail to apply international anti-money-laundering standards properly, Switzerland itself becomes a high-risk jurisdiction," said Markus Ferber, the coordinator on economic affairs for the EPP, which represents Europe's centre-right political parties.

"When the list of high-risk third countries in the area of money laundering is up for revision the next time, the European Commission needs to consider adding Switzerland to that list."

Kangaroo court deems Ottawa protest organizer Tamara Lich at risk to reoffend and denied bail

Ruled Ontario Court Justice Julie Bourgeois: 'Your detention is necessary for the protection and safety of the public'

Tamara Lich, one of the leading organizers behind protests against COVID-19 restrictions and the Liberal government on Parliament Hill, has been denied bail. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

Ontario Court Justice Julie Bourgeois said in the decision that the effect on the community from the actions of the convoy were immense and that she felt Lich was obstinate and disingenuous in her responses to the court during her bail hearing on Saturday.

"I cannot be reassured that if I release you into the community that you will not reoffend," Bourgeois said.

"Your detention is necessary for the protection and safety of the public."

Comment: From the Post Millennial:
Freedom Convoy leader and organizer Tamara Lich was denied bail by an Ottawa judge this morning. According to Marieke Walsh of The Globe and Mail and David Akin of Global News, Lich wanted to be released on $5,000.

Lich was denied bail because, in part, judge Julie Bourgeois believed that there was a risk that she would continue criminal actions. Bourgeois was a Liberal candidate for Glengarry-Prescott-Russell in 2011.

"There is a substantial risk you will continue these actions and will not abide by an order," the judge told Lich. "Your recent history in our city ... satisfies me that you're detention is necessary for the safety and protection of the public."

The judge also said that Lich was being "guarded" and that her attitude was "almost to be obstructive."


That's called "Right to remain silent", honey.


Lich faces a charge of mischief, meaning she faces up to 10 years in prison.

"The accused is liable, upon conviction, a lengthy term of imprisonment," the judge said.

Lich was also instructed to not communicate with other organizers unless in the presence of a lawyer.
True North News points up the court's hypocrisy:
Lich's detention also comes just over two weeks after the man who was arrested in Winnipeg in connection with a hit-and-run that injured four protesters at a freedom rally was also released on bail. According to court documents, 42-year-old David Alexander Zegarac was released from custody on Feb. 5 on a promise to pay $10,000. His next appearance is scheduled for March 22.

As Canadian police continued clearing "Freedom Convoy" trucker demonstrators out of the capital in Ottawa on Saturday, protests over COVID restrictions continued in the nation's west for a fourth straight weekend.

Convoys of vehicles carrying vaccine-mandate protesters made their way to Pacific Highway border crossing to the United States in Surrey, British Columbia, according to the CBC. The demonstrations have forced the Royal Canadian Mounted Police to block the crossing for a second consecutive week.

More than a dozen demonstrators were arrested at the border last week after some breached blockades.

"As a preventative measure, and to help ensure public and officer safety, vehicles and pedestrians cannot access the Pacific Highway border crossing at this time," a spokesperson for Surrey RCMP said in a statement.

"The public are advised to use alternate border crossings during this service disruption until further notice."

International tourists and business travellers are arriving in Australia with few restrictions for the first time in almost two years after some of the strictest pandemic measures of any democracy were lifted.

Vaccinated travellers were greeted at Sydney's airport by jubilant well-wishers waving toy koalas and favourite Australian foods including Tim Tam chocolate biscuits and jars of Vegemite spread.

Federal Tourism Minister Dan Tehan was on hand to welcome the first arrivals on a Qantas flight from Los Angeles which landed at 6.20 am local time.

quintez brown Craig greenberg assassination attempt
BLM activist Quintez Brown (L) is accused of shooting at Louisville mayoral candidate Craig Greenberg (R)
When prominent young far-left activist Quintez Brown was arrested last week for allegedly trying to assassinate a Jewish mayoral candidate in Kentucky, he was portrayed sympathetically by the media and immediately bailed out of jail by his Black Lives Matter comrades, who crowdfunded the $100,000 cost.

Brown, 21, had BLM privilege. A celebrated gun control advocate, anointed as a rising star by the Obama Foundation, he was an honored guest on Joy Reid's MSNBC show. He was granted a biweekly opinion column in the Louisville Courier-Journal to spew boilerplate leftist, race-based, anti-cop sentiment.

And according to Andy Ngo, author of Unmasked, the definitive Antifa expose, Brown's social media accounts show a disturbing allegiance to anti-Semitic causes, such as the Lion Of Judah Armed Forces, an armed black nationalist group that is linked to the virulently anti-Semitic Black Hebrew Israelites.

Six people protesting against potential Russian military involvement in the Donbass region of Ukraine were detained by police in central Moscow on Sunday.

According to media reports, solo anti-war picketers congregated in the capital's Pushkinskaya Square baring hand-written placards, asking the Russian authorities to stay away from Ukraine.

The arrested protesters carried signs with messages such as "Russia, do not touch Ukraine" and "Down with the power of the Chekists."


Comment: One wonders whether these same protesters demonstrated when the US fomented the coup in Ukraine removing any remnants of sovereignty the country had?


Images uploaded by Russian telegram channel SOTA depict multiple policemen physically detaining individual demonstrators, with one activist struggling to display his placard as he is led away by authorities. The unrest is said to have lasted no more than an hour.

UK's farmers union says industry crisis due to lockdown & cheap imports, cull of 200,000 pigs looms as staff shortage continues

© Adrian Sherratt/The ObserverThe NFU president, Minette Batters, seen here on her farm near Salisbury with her herd of Simmental Cross cattle, will make an unprecedented attack on government farming policy.
The government has shown a "total lack of understanding of how food production works", introduced "completely contradictory policies" on farming, and risks "repeatedly running into crises" through the lack of a post-Brexit plan for UK farming, the leading representative of British farmers will say today.

Minette Batters, president of the National Farmers' Union, will make a scathing attack on ministers' failures, unprecedented in recent memory in its ferocity from a farming leader.

Her withering assessment of the government's actions reflects widespread anger and alarm among many sections of the UK's farming and food production industries, one of the country's biggest manufacturing industries and employers. Farmers have suffered from plunging exports and reams of new red tape owing to Brexit, staff shortages as EU seasonal workers have left, and the prospect of floods of cheap low-quality imports after post-Brexit trade deals.

Comment: As we can see, the government is in many cases doing the exact opposite of what farmers need, and, taken together with the known goals of the Great Resetters, this is likely not only due to incompetence and corruption, but in some cases intentional. Bear in mind this appears to be a strategy being employed by the establishment throughout the West, and at a point in time where the food supply is already extremely vulnerable: And check out SOTT radio's:
