  • VIDEO: Liberal Media Reports Justin Trudeau Wore... 'Blackface?'

    VIDEO Do we notice a certain very strange pattern in the liberal media reports about Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wearing what they term as "brownface?" Perhaps they think it sounds better than the more accurate "blackface." In fact, when have you ever heard of someone wearing "brownface" before? However, since they feel obligated to protect Trudeau especially because he is facing a very tough election in Canada, the liberal media seems willing to make themselves appear to be ridiculous by using the term "brownface."

    As he smiled for the camera, the young man must have felt the costume and make-up he was wearing were mere harmless fun: Just another night for a party boy who loved dressing up. In one snap, he’s elaborately costumed as Aladdin for an end-of-year ‘Arabian Nights’ do at a smart private school in British Columbia. His fellow teachers barely bothered to dress up for the 2001 event, but Justin Trudeau has gone for it, donning a white robe, theatrical turban and even dark make-up on his hands, face and neck.

    Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau apologized Thursday after three instances of him in blackface resurfaced in less than 24 hours, but left open the possibility that more footage could come to light. “I am wary of being definitive about this, because the recent pictures that came out, I had not remembered,” Trudeau said, according to CNBC. Trudeau’s comments come after a video resurfaced on Thursday that showed Trudeau in dark makeup, raising his hands in the air and making faces while wearing a white T-shirt and jeans ripped at the knees.

    Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau apologized again for wearing blackface on Thursday after two additional photos of him donning dark make-up emerged following an original, damning image of him at an Arabian Nights party. Trudeau first apologized on Wednesday night after a 2001 photograph of him emerged in brown face at an Arabian Nights party when he was a teacher. He also referred to a high school incident where he dressed up as Harry Belafonte to sing the Jamaican song Day-O. A photograph of the Day-O performance came out on Thursday morning but since then, a video of a third...

    Justin Trudeau, the Prime Minister of Canada and arguably the most woke, virtue-signalling and PC-crazed leader in the history of Mankind – or ‘Peoplekind’ as he insisted we rename it last year - turns out to have a rather cracked halo? Wow. I’m so shocked…not. I’ve not met a high-horse rider yet who doesn’t eventually tumble off into a pit of shameless hypocrisy. But I’ve got to hand it to Trudeau, when he fell, he really FELL. For a guy so keen to paint himself as the male Mother Teresa, the revelation that he has literally painted himself to appropriate...

    Global News has obtained video showing Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau in blackface, the third instance of racist dress to come to light in 12 hours. It’s not clear when or where the video was taken, but the video, obtained exclusively by Global News, shows Trudeau covered in what appears to be dark makeup and raising his hands in the air while laughing, sticking his tongue out and making faces. He’s wearing a white T-shirt, and his jeans are ripped at the knees. It appears as though his arms and legs are covered in makeup as well. It does not appear...

    Justin Trudeau, Canada’s prime minister, wore brownface makeup to a party at the private school where he was teaching in the spring of 2001. TIME has obtained a photograph of the incident. The photograph has not been previously reported. The picture was taken at an “Arabian Nights”-themed gala. It shows Trudeau, then the 29-year-old son of the late former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, wearing a turban and robes with his face, neck and hands completely darkened. The photograph appears in the 2000-2001 yearbook of West Point Grey Academy, a private day school where Trudeau was a teacher.

    Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey apologized on Thursday for her role in a racially insensitive skit involving blackface that her sorority put on when she was a student at Auburn University in the 1960s. Ivey said in a statement on Thursday that while she has no recollection of the skit, or of wearing blackface, she has “genuine remorse” over her participation. Though her fiance at the time, Ben LaRavia, "is the one on tape remembering the skit – and I still don’t recall ever dressing up in overalls or in blackface – I will not deny what is obvious,” Ivey said....

    I think I really do love all of these dunces we laughingly refer to as celebrities. The latest "absolutely awesome talent" that's in quotes, is this Sarah Silverman person. Apparently she did a sketch in black face 12 years ago and now she's being called out for her mortal sin against mankind. It really is heartening to see the very leftists that she is supposedly in league with turn on her and then rip her to shreds. More fun than the Roman coliseum at its height of glory. So many, many other stars have been so-called "called out" for past...

    'm tired of the Democratic Party's race baiting. The most recent example is the blatant lie that President Donald Trump's criticism of the four female Representatives on "The Squad" was racist. Pardon my shouting, but REP. RASHIDA TLAIB AND REP. ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ ARE WHITE. The complexions I see on my computer indicate they could have used a whites only restroom in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1955. Tlaib is Palestinian and Palestinians, like other Middle East peoples, belong to the so-called "white race". It may come as a shock to those who call themselves "Aryans", but Aryans are Indo-Iranians. AOC is among...

Mark Char was found guilty in March of attempted murder and assault following a triple stabbing on the H-1 Freeway nearly three years ago. Char was accused of stabbing the victims following a road rage confrontation, though he testified during the trial that he acted in self-defense.

    Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam announced on Tuesday that he’ll recall lawmakers to the state Capitol in the coming weeks to take up a package of gun-control legislation, which he said is urgently needed to prevent killings like Friday’s mass shooting in Virginia Beach. Northam said he plans to convene a special legislative session this summer. The Democrat said in an Associated Press interview ahead of his announcement that he wants the Republican-controlled General Assembly to hear from the public about the need for “common-sense” law related to guns and accessories. Republicans have previously rejected Northam’s gun control bills out of...

"With respect to the Photograph on Governor Northam's personal page, we could not conclusively determine the identity of either individual depicted in the Photograph. The Governor himself has made inconsistent public statements in this regard. No individual that we interviewed has told us from personal knowledge that the Governor is...

    LEXINGTON, Va. -- Clare Perry considers herself a Democrat. Grayson Pearce is a Republican. She's from Richmond, and he's from Virginia Beach. Despite holding opposing political values, they both have the same question: What is the matter with Virginia? In particular, what's wrong with its politics? A few months ago, in a cascade of disgraces, both Gov. Ralph Northam and Attorney General Mark Herring admitted to having worn blackface. Then, Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax was accused of sexual assault by two women. Now the stories have seemingly disappeared from the front pages, or any pages, of the local news outlets....

    SOMERS, CT (WFSB) – A picture posted on social media of a Somers student portraying black face is under investigation. The superintendent, Brian Czapla, released a statement on Monday saying the picture was posted over the weekend by a high school student. “We do not condone any type of racism, bigotry, or hateful actions towards individuals or groups. This is not the type of behavior or beliefs we expect from our students,” Czapla said in the statement. The girl had on black face in the post along with the ""n" word.

    RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Two months after a blackface photo in an old yearbook nearly ended the political career of Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, his life seems mostly back to normal. The Democratic governor is cracking jokes at almost daily public appearances around Virginia. State lawmakers who called on him to resign are now all smiles, standing beside him at news conferences. The Twitter mob has moved on to other things, and the antifa-led protests outside his house have stopped. At a century-old black church in Richmond over the weekend, Northam was warmly received as he helped unveil a historic...

Amy Klobuchar, Minnesota Democrat, said Sunday that “we have to move on” after being asked about Mr. Northam in an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” **SNIP** “If we spend our whole time, Chuck, talking about what men did wrong, we are never going to talk about what women can do right, including running for president and winning,” she said. After Mr. Todd said that the Northam situation wasn’t a “great picture” for Democrats, Ms. Klobuchar...
