News coming on my new book soon. In the meantime, here’s a link and a snippet from the New York Times huge feature on Trump’s neo-Nazi fans in this morning’s paper.  The deceptively benign phrase “alt-right” now peppers the national conversation, often in ways that play down its fundamental beliefs, which have

A FOREIGN POWER CONSPIRED TO PUT A DANGEROUS MAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE. IT WORKED. That's the biggest political story in a generation.#uspoli — Warren Kinsella (@kinsellawarren) December 11, 2016

To recap: U.S. intelligence agencies have confirmed that Putin’s regime interfered in the U.S. election (to destroy Clinton) – and held onto some of what they found (ro blackmail Trump).  It’s been in all the papers. I comment on it on Twitter. Then: Putin leaks hacked Democrat emails to instal

Also: the female is wearing A VEIL! This refugee family, with controversial "values," violated immigration laws. @KellieLeitch, go get 'em! #cpcldr pic.twitter.com/PupppJRjkr — Warren Kinsella (@kinsellawarren) December 9, 2016

…my wife’s former town. Got a lot of friends there, too. From Kelowna Now: “Some students at the UBC Okanagan campus in Kelowna were shocked to find pro-white posters telling readers to abandon political correctness and multiculturalism and free themselves of “white guilt.”

.@HillaryClinton got 3 million more votes than @realDonaldTrump. Keep tweeting that, because it drives his supporters fucking crazy. #uspoli — Warren Kinsella (@kinsellawarren) December 9, 2016

This is so, so awesome.  Well done, Bill Morneau.  Just awesome. (And no, Nellie McClung shouldn’t have been considered, much less on the list.  She was a racist and a proponent of eugenics, which is National Socialism in a lab coat.)  

My girlfriend Paula Christison had been over, and we’d been studying, then watching something on the little black and white TV we had. My Carleton roommate, Lee G. Hill, was there too. Lee and I had been great friends in Calgary. In junior high, we’d started a couple fanzines with

From next week’s column: A year later, the electoral reform promise is in shambles. And, when you think about it, the “democratic reform” file has been a fiasco from the earliest days.   The minister responsible, Maryam Monsef, bears responsibility for some of that. Monsef did herself no favours by

The pundits and partisans may not like it, but the people still love Trudeau, big time.   The innkeeper has given him the keys to the honeymoon suite, because the honeymoon sure ain’t ending.    

The Council of European Canadians has endorsed Conservative Party leadership candidate Kellie Leitch. They’ve done that because Leitch is channeling Donald Trump.  She, along with that misogynistic creep Brad Trost, is fully the candidate of the extreme Right – and, in her case, the racist Right. I say that because the far-Right

…well, actually, they can be.  But I’ve got 23,000 of them, some of which I assume are actual, real people. When I reach 25,000, I will spontaneously combust, so keep those follows coming, folks.

What an asshole this guy is. I know he’ll claim he’s happy a Liberal is saying that – but one thing I also know: if Harper was still boss, this woman-hating moron would be kicked out of caucus.  These guys aren’t forming government anytime soon. 

Do journalistic conventions rewire our brains? It’s a serious question. In the fun new sci-fi movie ‘Arrival,’ the plot posits the theory that language changes the way we think, and not the other way around. The aliens keep telling everyone what they think – kind of like a racist and

Look, this “democratic reform” file has been a fiasco from the start.  From four vague lines in the Liberal Party platform (promising bold change but not saying what the bold change would be), to now, when the whole thing has spiralled downward into Twitter hashtag farce (there some really good

From “weasel,” using weasel@huha.com at 24.36.21.45.  American spelling. Anyone care to find him? You are simply a weasel who barks “fascist” and “racist” at your political enemies because you got nothing. You’re a bribe-taking politician wannabe FFS. As punk as Hillary’s pantsuits. Pathetic to the core. Please do the world a favor and
