Irish teacher punished over trans student's pronouns

An Irish schoolteacher who refused to use 'they' instead of 'he' when addressing a biologically male transgender student, citing his Christian beliefs, could now be stripped of his salary, according to The Irish Times. He has already spent more than 500 days in prison.

Enoch Burke, formerly a teacher of history and German at Wilson's Hospital School in County Westmeath, has been at the center of a prolonged legal and ethical dispute since 2022. Burke was suspended after he opposed the school principal's request to refer to a 'transitioning' student by a new name and the pronoun "they."

Following a hearing on Friday, the High Court of Ireland will be asked to appoint a receiver to recover unpaid fines from Burke's salary. If approved, the move would enable authorities to collect €79,100 - an amount he has accrued through daily €700 fines for showing up at Wilson's Hospital School in defiance of court orders to stay away.

The teacher, who has an evangelical Christian background, had repeatedly failed to heed a court order barring him from entering the grounds of the school.

After officially resigning two months ago, Justin Trudeau is finally stepping down as Prime Minister of Canada. His replacement? The recently-selected Mark Carney.

Regular readers are no doubt familiar with Carney, he's had quite a few high-profile jobs over the years. As a quick reminder, let's run down the highlights of his CV:
  • 1990-2003: Goldman Sachs (various)
  • 2003-2007: Department of Finance, Canada (senior associate deputy minister)
  • 2007-2013: Central Bank of Canada (Chairman)
  • 2010-2012: Bank of International Settlements Committee on the Global Financial System (Chairman)
  • 2013-2020: Bank of England (Governor)
  • 2020-2024: Brookefield Asset Management (Vice-Chairman)
  • 2020-2025: UN Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance
  • 2025-????: Prime Minister of Canada...apparently
My, there are a lot of banks on that list, aren't there? Not to mention his special appointments at Chatham House and the World Economic Forum or his regular appearances at Bilderberg. However, the eagle-eyed may note the absence of previous elected offices.

In fact, not only has he never won any elected office at any level of government, he's never even run before. He will be the first Canadian Prime Minister to have never held a seat in the House of Commons.

SOTT Focus: Five years since Covid, guys

LUC TALKS
No, I won't retraumatize you all by going through the Covid timeline again. It's enough that I had to see one the other day, complete with the measures, lockdowns and their idiotic names. Talk about a PTSD flare.

The whole mess is now 5 years old, almost to the day.

DOJ launches antitrust investigation over high egg prices

The Department of Justice has launched an anti-trust investigation into escalating egg prices, including whether large producers have conspired to raise prices or hold back supply.

According to Bureau of Labor Statistics data, the price of eggs jumped 15.2% from December to January, and 53% from January 2024 to January 2025. The average price of a dozen Grade A large eggs in January was $4.95, a 139% increase from October 2023, when the cost was $2.07.

The DOJ sent a letter to some egg companies that instructed them to preserve documents about their pricing conversations with customers and competitors, as well as communications with the group that tracks wholesale egg prices, Expana, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday, citing people familiar with the matter.

The letter also signaled the department was interested in company communications about egg production and the bird flu. It is unknown if the investigation, in its initial stages, is being conducted by criminal or civil authorities.

NY state court rules NO vaccine exemption for children in Amish schools, communities hit with $118,000 in fines

A federal appeals court has upheld a decision requiring Amish school children to be vaccinated in New York. These are not Amish children who attend public schools. These are Amish children attending Amish-owned and operated schools. Religious objections do not work here, according to the Second Circuit court ruling.

From Courthouse News:
MANHATTAN (CN) — A New York State law requiring Amish students to receive vaccinations does not violate those students' constitutional rights, a Second Circuit panel ruled Monday. The case, which the panel heard this past November, had been brought by three Amish community schools that were fined in 2019 for failing to comply with state-mandated school vaccinations. The schools and Amish parents argued their First and 14th Amendment rights had been violated, as many Amish seek to live separately from the modern world and abhor vaccines.

Comment: The Amish position is perfectly reasonable in light of many studies:

Reality Engineering: How performative activism enabled mass persecution

Reality engineering requires three components:
  • institutional power to create the narrative,
  • social pressure to enforce it,
  • and the deliberate persecution of anyone who challenges either.
The COVID era provided the perfect case study in how this machinery operates - and revealed how performative activism serves as its most potent enforcement mechanism.

Puppet Master
Every major element of the official COVID narrative has been proven false: The origins of the virus, the validity of PCR tests, the suppression of early treatments, the denial of natural immunity, the so-called "safety and effectiveness" of vaccines, and the utility of masks, lockdowns, and vaccine passports. Yet those who questioned any part of it faced unprecedented ostracism and persecution.

The manufactured panic ignored fundamental reality: COVID posed minimal risk to healthy people under 70, but was significantly more dangerous to the elderly and immunocompromised. Rather than focusing resources on protecting vulnerable populations, we destroyed economies, stole childhoods, and enforced measures that made no epidemiological sense. This wasn't just about control - it was an engineered economic coup, the largest financial consolidation of power in modern history. While small businesses were forcibly closed, Amazon's profits soared. As working-class neighborhoods struggled, Wall Street celebrated record gains. The laptop class posted about 'we're all in this together' from their home offices while essential workers were forced into what was portrayed as dangerous conditions to deliver their groceries. The same corporations trumpeting their commitment to "equity" through DEI initiatives were destroying economic mobility for the very communities they claimed to champion.

Comment: With these initial covid/vax years now past, and for many reading here this may all seem like an old story. However, many and their families will suffer from it for all of their lives, while the fracturing of relationships still . As the author writes, people cannot ever pretend this evil bio-operation against humankind did not happen, while there will be those who try very hard to put humans into a place of collective amnesia.

Dem's fundraising behemoth ActBlue reportedly on brink of implosion

Top staffers rushing for exit

Major Democratic fundraising platform ActBlue is facing serious turmoil with at least seven senior officials resigning in February and one lawyer implying that he "faced internal retaliation," according to The New York Times.

The nonprofit, which has funneled hundreds of millions of dollars to all levels of Democratic campaigns over the years, is facing internal havoc. Given ActBlue's major influence in processing election donations, the group's instability could also greatly affect the Democratic Party.

Two unions representing ActBlue's employees sent a letter to the platform's board of directors, according to the NYT. The letter cited by the outlet described the flurry of resignations since Feb. 21 as an "alarming pattern" that is "eroding our confidence in the stability of the organization." The newspaper also stated that the reason for this exodus is unclear.

Comment: ActBlue is a cesspool of moneylaundering corruption, and now it's being exposed. You can bet that even before the rats cleared their desks they were lawyering up. O'Keefe Media Group looked into ActBlue, particularly their practice of 'smurfing', that is breaking up donations over the legal limit, and sneaking them in under the names of random citizens.

A half-ton World War II-era bomb found near train tracks in a crowded residential area just outside of Paris unleashed travel chaos across the region Friday, prompting disruptions at Europe's busiest rail station and closures of major roads leading into the French capital.

The unexploded bomb was found overnight by workers doing earthmoving activity near the tracks in the Seine-Saint-Denis area north of Paris, according to French Transport Minister Philippe Tabarot.

Bomb disposal experts were called to the scene, locals were evacuated and "a quite large" security perimeter was set up around the operation, he added.

Eurostar, operator of high-speed trains through the Channel Tunnel that links England with the European continent, announced the cancelation of all its services to and from its Paris hub at Gare du Nord and the U.K. and Belgian capitals.

President Trump has instructed new Department of Education head Linda McMahon to "put herself out of a job."
Seeks to dismantle 'bureaucratic bloat' in agency's 'momentous final mission'

Donald Trump could make a drastic move to reshape American classrooms within the next 24 hours by shuttering the Department of Education.

The president is expected to sign an executive order as soon as Thursday which would bring about abolishing the federal agency, the Wall Street Journal reports.

Education Secretary Linda McMahon will be tasked with taking 'all necessary steps to facilitate the closure of the Education Department,' the publication reported, citing a draft of the order.

This will be done to 'the maximum extent appropriate and permitted by law.'

According to the publication, the draft order reads: 'The experiment of controlling American education through Federal programs and dollars - and the unaccountable bureaucrats those programs and dollars support - has failed our children, our teachers, and our families.'
