The Collapse of the Global Order
The world isn’t just changing—it’s disintegrating. The postwar order that held nations in check, economies in sync, and conflicts at bay is cracking apart at every fault line. From collapsing alliances to internal unrest, the glue that once held the global system together is gone—and what’s rising in its place is far more dangerous, unstable, and unpredictable.
Before the Second World War, the world was multipolar. Multiple great powers—Britain, France, Germany, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, Russia, the United States, and Japan—existed in a delicate and often volatile balance of power. Each dominated their own sphere of influence, and while some were stronger than others, no single nation could dictate global affairs unchallenged. Competition, alliances, and shifting loyalties defined international relations.
But after the Second World War, that structure collapsed. The old empires were destroyed. In their place, a bipolar world emerged—anchored by the United States and the Soviet Union. The Cold War turned much of the planet into a chessboard, with proxy conflicts, ideological warfare, and nuclear brinkmanship keeping the global order frozen under the threat of annihilation.
Then, in 1991, the Soviet Union fell. And with it, the bipolar world gave way to a brief but extraordinary unipolar moment. The United States stood alone as the world’s sole superpower—militarily, economically, and culturally dominant. Through NATO, global financial institutions, and technological superiority, America exported its version of order across the world. Many Western thinkers declared this the "end of history"—a belief that liberal democracy and global capitalism had triumphed permanently.
They were wrong.
What we are witnessing now is the return of multipolarity—and the unraveling of that post-Cold War illusion. Power is fragmenting again. America’s dominance is being challenged on multiple fronts. Russia is asserting itself in Eastern Europe. China is contesting U.S. influence in Asia and threatening to overtake it as the world’s largest economy. The Middle East is once again a flashpoint, with Iran and Israel nearing open confrontation. Old alliances like NATO and the EU are under strain. Nationalism, protectionism, and regional rivalries are replacing the globalist consensus.
But the instability we see today isn’t just between nations—it’s within them. America is polarized, burdened by debt, and culturally fractured. China faces demographic decline, economic slowdown, and regional unrest. The European Union is increasingly divided between populist and technocratic visions of its future. These internal fractures weaken the cohesion of the very powers vying for dominance—and inject even more uncertainty into the global system.
This is not a temporary disruption. It's a structural transformation. The liberal world order is no longer unquestioned. The global security framework built on American primacy is eroding. In its place, power vacuums are emerging—and new blocs, ideologies, and rivalries are rushing to fill them.
No one knows exactly what comes next. But one thing is certain: history is not over. It never was.
Turning Classrooms into Ideological Battlegrounds: Teachers Found to be Fuelling Anti-Semitism in Schools
A new federal report reveals a troubling trend in Ontario’s public schools: teachers and school-sanctioned activities are directly contributing to a rise in anti-Semitic incidents. Instead of fostering logic, reason, and emotional stability, some educators are pushing ideological agendas that actively indoctrinate students with hatred and exclusion. Examples include teachers denying Israel’s existence, promoting radical Palestinian narratives without balance, and even dismissing Jewish students’ identities as lies.
This isn’t just about isolated incidents—nearly one in five anti-Semitic acts in schools stem from educators themselves. Worse, nearly half of all reported cases are ignored by school authorities, signalling a systemic failure to protect vulnerable students.
Let’s be clear: Criticism of Israeli government policy is not antisemitism, and the conflict in the Middle East is complex. But that does not justify turning classrooms into breeding grounds for hostility against Jewish children, where they feel unsafe and unwanted.
This ideological brainwashing is poisoning the education system, replacing critical thinking and empathy with division and fear. Instead of teaching students how to reason through complex issues, some teachers are instilling bias and hate, damaging young minds and eroding social cohesion.
If this continues unchecked, Ontario’s schools won’t just be failing Jewish students—they’ll be failing the entire generation, creating a future shaped by intolerance rather than understanding and resilience. The system needs urgent reform to root out this toxic indoctrination and restore classrooms as places of learning, safety, and respect. Source
The “Blind Trust” That Sees Everything: Carney’s Conflict Scandal Is Getting Worse
Prime Minister Mark Carney’s financial disclosure reads less like a statement of integrity — and more like a billionaire’s portfolio cheat sheet wrapped in government optics.
The ethics screen now covering Carney’s holdings stretches across 16 full pages and includes direct or indirect ties to over 100 companies. Among the most significant are firms in the clean energy sector — a policy area central to Carney’s own political agenda. Through his former role as co-manager of the Brookfield Global Transition Fund, Carney oversaw investments in Leap Green, Avaada Group, and CleanMax — all major renewable energy players in India. And yet, his government has pledged to make Canada a “clean energy superpower.” The overlap is not theoretical — it’s operational.
Carney’s so-called blind trust is anything but. He placed into it shares of North of 60 Advisors, Stripe, Partners Value Investments LP, Cultivo Land PBC, Watershed Technology, and deferred units in both Brookfield Corporation and Brookfield Asset Management. In total, Brookfield awarded Carney over 400,000 stock options — valued at more than US$6.8 million — set to mature by 2034. If that’s not a long-term financial stake in the companies his government may benefit, what is?
Worse still, Carney holds additional investments in companies like Amazon, Blackrock, Apple, Moderna, Lockheed Martin, and Palantir — through a “third-party managed” account. But as advocacy group Democracy Watch has made clear, this setup is not blind at all. Carney knows exactly what he put in the trust, selected the trustee, set the rules, and can receive updates. This isn’t arm’s length — it’s sleight of hand.
Duff Conacher of Democracy Watch put it bluntly: “His blind trust isn’t blind at all.” The arrangement falls far short of ethical independence. And yet Carney sits at the helm of a government pushing climate, tech, pharmaceutical, and defense policy — sectors in which he has direct financial stakes.
This is not just a conflict of interest. It’s the institutionalization of insider governance. When the head of state is financially entangled with the very industries he regulates, democracy isn’t just undermined — it’s up for sale. Canadians aren’t asking for perfection. But they deserve better than a prime minister managing the country with one hand, and his investment portfolio with the other. Source.
Trump Threatens Russia With 100% Tariffs if No Ukraine Deal in 50 Days
President Donald Trump has threatened to impose a 100% secondary tariff on Russian goods if a peace deal on Ukraine isn’t reached within 50 days. Speaking alongside NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, Trump expressed disappointment in Vladimir Putin and emphasized the US could act without Congress. Secondary tariffs would target countries continuing trade with Russia. Trump also announced a new framework where European allies will pay for US-supplied weapons to Ukraine, with the US manufacturing but not funding them. Rutte supported the plan, noting several NATO members are preparing their own weapons packages for Ukraine. More
Canada Joins 19 Nations in Australia’s Largest-Ever Military Exercise, Drawing Attention From China
Australia has launched its largest-ever military drills, Exercise Talisman Sabre, involving 35,000 troops from 19 countries, including the US, Canada, Japan, and the UK. For the first time, Australia live-fired US-made HIMARS rocket systems, marking a major step in its long-range strike capabilities. Chinese surveillance ships are expected to monitor the exercises, as they have in past years. The drills began just as Prime Minister Albanese visited China to meet President Xi, but he says the Chinese observation won't be raised. This year’s Talisman Sabre also extends beyond Australia, with exercises held in Papua New Guinea for the first time. More

It’s ‘Crypto Week’ in the House—What to Expect
Bitcoin hit an all-time high of $122,000 as the US launched “Crypto Week,” a major legislative push to regulate digital assets. Lawmakers will vote on three key bills:
The Genius Act – Regulates stablecoins and sets rules for issuers; backed by Trump and Treasury officials, but criticized by Sen. Elizabeth Warren for lacking consumer protections.
The Clarity Act – Establishes clear distinctions between digital assets and assigns regulatory roles to the SEC and CFTC; aims to prevent collapses like FTX.
The Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act – Blocks the creation of a U.S. central bank digital currency, aligning with Trump’s campaign promise to stop a “digital dollar.”
These bills aim to fulfill Trump’s promise of crypto-friendly regulation while boosting US innovation and limiting government overreach. More

100 Ghost Galaxies May Be Orbiting the Milky Way and We’re Just Now Discovering Them
New research from Durham University suggests the Milky Way could have 80 to 100 more hidden satellite galaxies than previously observed. Using high-resolution supercomputer simulations and advanced mathematical models, scientists identified potential “orphan” galaxies—ultra-faint satellites stripped of dark matter by the Milky Way’s gravity and overlooked in past studies. If confirmed by future telescope data, these findings would strongly support the Lambda Cold Dark Matter (LCDM) model, the leading theory of how the Universe forms and evolves. Researchers hope upcoming tools like the Rubin Observatory will reveal these elusive galaxies. More

Instead they are trying to force digital I.O.U.'s for "payment for work" CBDC's). It's not money. It's I.O.U.'s. They hold it in their computers. They give you your I.O.U.'s if you do as they say, but do what they say, live where they say, eat what they say, roam where they say etc etc. Behind your back they are pushing this. People are waking up around the world.pushback. Interesting times.

So they are trying to fragment, kill, injury, alter humanity because of their insecurity and guilt.

They deserve a proper, well deserved, wake up call and response. Soon.
Anti-semitism? Lol. Genocide will have that effect. Fuck zionism.
