An elementary school has decided to cancel its traditional Christmas concert to allegedly promote inclusivity in Canada. Pat Hardy Elementary School, located in Whitecourt, Alberta, announced the decision through its principal, Anne Martens.
“We work hard to find ways to ensure our events are as inclusive to as many students and families as possible,” Martens stated. She explained that non-participating students miss out on multiple music lessons and extensive practice sessions.
Originally proposed as a “Winter Concert,” the plan has shifted to allow a “Spring Concert” involving all students. The school claims spring is a less busy time, providing a better opportunity for students to participate in additional rehearsals.
The move to cancel the Christmas concert comes just a year after a publicly funded human rights group in Canada claimed that having days off work for Christmas and Easter was “discriminatory” and was evidence of Canada’s “colonial” past. “Canada’s history with religious intolerance is deeply rooted in our identity as a settler colonial state,” the group said.
Anti-Christian hatred has surged in Canada in recent years. Over a hundred churches have been torched or vandalized since 2021. Last year, four churches in Alberta were set on fire just weeks before Christmas.
The attacks all came following reports that unmarked graves of children had been found at a First Nations residential school in Kamloops, British Columbia. However, to date, no remains have been excavated from the site, falsely labeled “mass graves” by international media.

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld a district court ruling that affirms the U.S. government’s authority to deport individuals in the country illegally. The ruling comes after a challenge from King County, Washington, prompted by an executive order issued in April 2019 by King County Executive Dow Constantine.
This order sought to halt the support of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) charter flights from King County International Airport near Seattle. Constantine’s directive aimed to prevent the transportation and deportation of ICE detainees at the local airport.
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a lawsuit in February 2020, arguing that Constantine’s order unlawfully obstructed federal immigration enforcement. They contend it contravened the Supremacy Clause’s intergovernmental immunity doctrine and a World War II-era Instrument of Transfer agreement. This agreement allowed the federal government certain usage rights at the airport under the Surplus Property Act of 1944. The Trump administration sought a permanent injunction against the order, which the district court granted, asserting that the order unfairly discriminated against ICE contractors and breached the Instrument of Transfer.
King County, a self-declared “sanctuary county,” appealed the decision. Constantine’s legal team argued in favor of the county’s approach to “inclusivity” and opposition to discrimination.
However, the appellate court, led by Judge Daniel Bress, with concurrence from Judges Michael Hawkins and Richard Clifton, deemed Constantine’s arguments to be ideological. The court maintained that the order violated the Supremacy Clause and the Instrument of Transfer. It underscored that the federal government sustained concrete injuries due to increased ICE operational costs and potential future risks from the order.
The ruling further determined that Constantine’s order breached the intergovernmental immunity doctrine by unfairly targeting federal operations, thereby restricting the government’s conduct of deportations.

Federal authorities have arrested Shenghua Wen, a Chinese illegal alien residing in California, on charges of purchasing and smuggling firearms and ammunition to North Korea. Prosecutors allege Wen acted on behalf of North Korean agents, receiving $2 million to facilitate the illicit activities.
According to a criminal complaint unsealed this week, Wen entered the U.S. on a student visa in 2012. Prosecutors claim he admitted to meeting with North Korean officials in China before his arrival, where they instructed him to procure weapons, ammunition, and technology for Pyongyang. Wen reportedly told investigators he was “good at smuggling” and shipped two containers of firearms from Long Beach, California, to Hong Kong, which were later routed to North Korea.
During a search of Wen’s vehicle, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents recovered 50,000 rounds of ammunition. Authorities also seized equipment, including a chemical threat detector and a tool for identifying hidden surveillance devices. Prosecutors say Wen planned to supply U.S. military uniforms to North Korean soldiers, allegedly to assist in disguising them for a surprise attack on South Korea.
Wen reportedly used straw purchasers to obtain firearms, often driving to Texas to secure the weapons. Investigators uncovered evidence of his activities in encrypted messages with North Korean handlers and photographs of firearms sent to co-conspirators. Court filings reveal Wen funneled funds through a Chinese bank account linked to his partner.
The case underscores the dangers posed by migrants who exploit U.S. visas to engage in activities supporting hostile regimes. Chinese illegals have been entering the United States in record numbers under the Biden-Harris government.

The National Pulse’s Editor-in-Chief, Raheem Kassam, joined Stephen K. Bannon on War Room to discuss the nomination of Kash Patel as President-elect Donald J. Trump’s Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on Tuesday. Kassam stressed the need for Trump’s appointees to adopt Patel’s mindset in taking on the Deep State and government bureaucrats, who will seek to undermine the President-elect’s America First agenda.
GLOBALIST RESISTANCE.
Kassam explained that Trump’s move to appoint outsiders like Patel and Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth—who oppose the longstanding globalist networks in the United States and Europe—is a direct threat to a system that has essentially laundered money through countries like Ukraine and Iraq, enriching politicians and the defense industry.
However, The National Pulse’s Editor-in-Chief warned that establishment and globalist-aligned lawmakers in the U.S. Senate will not approve Trump’s nominees without a fight. “I think you were right when you talked about the blood in the water that came after the Gaetz stuff,” Kassam noted, speaking with Bannon. He continued: “They got a big W with that.”
Kassam contends that the blocking of former Congressman Matt Gaetz’s (R-FL) animation as U.S. Attorney General exposes that the likes of Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and MSNBC host Rachel Maddow are the same ideologically. “They don’t want MAGA; they don’t want America to be great again,” he told Bannon, adding: “They oppose everything, like, it’s threaded into them. It’s woven into their spirits, that they actually oppose that stuff.”
Bannon noted that the U.S. political establishment controls the system, “…so the last thing they want is anti-system players, correct?”
KASH PATEL.
Addressing both the Kash Patel and Pete Hegseth nominations, Kassam argued that President-elect Trump’s supporters need to start pressing their Senators to support them right now. “I think people need to light up the Senators right now and say, ‘If you dare, if you dare, we’re just not going to have it,'” he argued.
“Kash is just brilliant. I mean, he is just a brilliant person. He’s a brilliant mind, he’s a brilliant man,” The National Pulse’s Editor-in-Chief said regarding Trump’s nominee to lead the FBI. “And the most important thing about Kash that I don’t think people realize, yeah, he’s great in front of the camera, but he is a hard worker. Like, he puts his shoulder [to the wheel]… he actually gets down and dirty into the documents, he understands these things instinctively. It is almost savant-like.”
“The FBI, under Kash Patel, needs to be investigating exactly how America got involved in Ukraine. What kickbacks there were, who they went to,” Kassam said. “There aren’t a whole lot of people like Kash, not just in American politics, but in the world. You’ve got your Darren Beatties, you’ve got your Kash Patels, your Natalie Winters, these are people who look at a document, and they instinctively understand where to go and how the dots get connected. So you can never, ever allow them to stop that confirmation.”
Kassam concluded: “I need fewer new Ambassadors to the Court of Saint James, I need fewer Never Trump appointments. I need more Kash Patels. That’s what I need. I don’t need one Kash Patel, by the way. Every single one of these people should be a Kash Patel of their department.”

Secret Service agents fired shots at suspected carjackers attempting to break into vehicles near Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen’s home in Washington, D.C., early Tuesday morning. The incident occurred shortly after 1:30 AM. The suspects fled the scene in their vehicle and remain at large.
Law enforcement officials confirmed the gunfire was part of an “agent-involved shooting.” The motives of the suspects and their connection, if any, to Yellen remain unclear, with investigators yet to provide further details.
The Washington Metropolitan Police Department and the U.S. Attorney’s Office, led by Matthew Graves, are overseeing the investigation. Senior law enforcement sources indicate that neither agents nor the carjackers were harmed during the incident, which took place in a high-security area.
Violent crime in the Democrat-dominated American capital is increasingly encroaching on the lives of the country’s governing class despite their relatively high levels of protection. In July, U.S. Marshals shot an 18-year-old trying to carjack federal bodyguards stationed outside Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor‘s home. Earlier in the year, Mike Gill, an official in the first Donald J. Trump administration, was shot and killed during a carjacking spree on the 900 block of K Street NW.
In November 2023, Secret Service agents protecting Joe Biden’s granddaughter Naomi opened fire on assailants attempting to break into an unmarked SUV. The month before, Democrat Congressman Enrique ‘Henry’ Cuellar had been carjacked outside an apartment block housing dozens of lawmakers.

The South Korean capital of Seoul appears to have descended into chaos as opposition parties successfully stormed the National Assembly building to hold a vote to end President Yoon Suk Yeol’s declaration of martial law. Late Tuesday evening in the East Asian nation, Yoon—apparently in an attempt to head off an impeachment vote and corruption probe—accused opposition parties in the South Korean parliament of colluding with communist North Korea, declaring martial law with the backing of the military.
At first I thought that South Korea had declared “marital law.”
I thought:
“Great! They really need to improve their abysmal 0.72 total fertility rate.”
Then I saw that they had just declared martial law and I went back to not really caring. pic.twitter.com/gzCShztYXX
In the aftermath of Yoon’s declaration, the streets of Seoul became chaotic, with citizens demonstrating and clashing with both the military and police. President Yoon’s chief political rival, Lee Jae-myung, posted a video declaring Yoon no longer the country’s leader.
South Korean leader of the opposition Lee Jae-myung:
Opposition lawmakers in the parliament were filmed attempting to hold back a surge of military personnel attempting to enter the National Assembly building, with some reports suggesting Yoon had landed special forces on the building’s roof. In other footage, South Korean military personnel can be seen pointing their guns at protestors.

Another video from around the legislature shows opposition party members climbing a fence as they fight to enter the building and hold a vote against the marital law declaration. Eventually, around 190 lawmakers gathered on the floor of the parliament and unanimously voted to lift President Yoon’s declaration. However, at the moment, it is unclear whether Yoon or the military will view the vote as legitimate.
South Korea is home to many U.S. military bases, including Camp Humphreys, which is the largest U.S. overseas base in the world.

President-elect Donald J. Trump is set to make his first overseas visit on Saturday, December 7, to attend the re-opening of the iconic Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris, France. However, Pope Francis has declined to attend.
France’s President Emmanuel Macron invited President-elect Trump to Paris, along with around 50 world leaders, to attend the re-opening five years after a catastrophic fire in April of 2019.
“It is an honor to announce that I will be traveling to Paris, France, on Saturday to attend the re-opening of the magnificent and historic Notre Dame Cathedral, which has been fully restored after a devastating fire five years ago,” Trump said on Truth Social on Monday.
Meanwhile, Pope Francis, head of the Roman Catholic Church, will not attend the re-opening, which is set to be a largely secular affair. The inaugural Holy Mass will not take place until Sunday morning.
Last week, 60 Minutesrevealed the newly restored cathedral, showing that the restoration has been largely faithful to the traditional Gothic architecture for which Notre Dame became famous across the world. Some, however, have criticized more modern additions to the cathedral, including a free-standing altar.
Trump has often been critical of the state of French society, stating in May that Paris, along with London, had become unrecognizable due to mass migration.

Eight village councils in the Sukma district of Chhattisgarh, India, have issued resolutions banning Christians from their villages, forcing them to renounce their faith or leave under threats of property confiscation and violence. The move affects around 100 Christians, with at least 40 already displaced, according to reports.
Local leaders have declared their authority overrides India’s Constitution, which—in theory—guarantees religious freedom under Article 25. On November 18, Christians filed a complaint at Gadiras Police Station, presenting audio evidence of threats by the village chief of Michwar. Police, however, refused to formally register the case and instead accompanied complainants to their fields, where they encountered a mob of 1,500 people looting crops and demanding the Christians renounce their faith. The officers withdrew without intervening.
On November 19, local Christian leaders appealed to district authorities, who delayed formal action until November 21, again leaving villagers vulnerable. Many were forced to seek refuge in a church building while their homes and livelihoods were destroyed.
This violence reflects a broader pattern of persecution in Chhattisgarh, which recorded 139 incidents of anti-Christian hate crimes this year. In a related attack on October 30 in Dantewada district, a mob assaulted 14 Christians harvesting communal crops, leaving several with severe injuries while police reportedly stood by.
Many Christians believe Hindu supremacists among the higher authorities tacitly support such attacks. Father Thomas Vadakumkara decried the systemic denial of Christians’ fundamental rights, citing restrictions on property, burial practices, and basic livelihoods.
India is among the first nations Christ’s apostles preached to following the Resurrection, and St. Thomas—sometimes referred to as ‘Doubting Thomas’—founded the country’s first churches.

An international non-government organization (NGO) comprised of journalists in six countries, intimately involved in the first Democrat-backed impeachment of President Donald J. Trump, has been exposed as receiving half of its funding from the United States Department of State. The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP)—co-founded by entrepreneur Drew Sullivan—saw 52 percent of the funds it spent between 2014 and 2023 funneled to it by the U.S. federal government, according to a report published by Drop Site.
Concerningly, it appears U.S. taxpayer dollars likely contributed to the OCCRP’s investigation into former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani‘s political work in Ukraine. These activities were cited no fewer than four times in the whistleblower letter that sparked the first impeachment of President Donald J. Trump in 2019. Trump was ultimately acquitted of the charges by the U.S. Senate.
U.S. TAXPAYER FUNDS.
The report notes that while the OCCRP—a massive NGO heavily involved in corruption reporting in Eastern Europe and Russia—has disclosed that it receives some government funding, the exact amounts were previously not publicly known. Since the organization’s founding, the U.S. government has contributed $47 million to its budget and is committed to granting OCCRP an additional $12 million.
In addition to American government funding, OCCRP has received an estimated $15 million from the governments of Britain, France, Sweden, Denmark, and the Netherlands over the last decade. OCCRP is also backed by private donors, including left-wing billionaire George Soros‘s Open Society Foundations.
EXTENSIVE MEDIA NETWORK.
The OCCRP routinely collaborates with state and corporate mediaworldwide. These include Germany’s public broadcaster NDR and Der Spiegel, Rolling Stone magazine and The Washington Post in the United States, The Guardian and The Times in the United Kingdom, France’s Le Monde, and Australia’s Dossier magazine, among many others.
Additionally, much of the OCCRP’s U.S. government-backed work has focused on countering Russian media narratives, raising concerns that the organization is simply spreading its own propaganda to counter that pushed by the Russian government. Numerous OCCRP reports have been cited as the basis for U.S. government actions against individuals, companies, and governments around the globe.
Like many NGOs, OCCRP attempts to portray itself as nonpartisan. However, its co-founder, Drew Sullivan, has a lengthy social media track record of boosting partisan political narratives. Recently, Sullivan has amplified claims that President-elect Trump’s nominee for Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, sports far-right Christian nationalist tattoos.
The National Pulse has reported that the tattoo in question is a Jerusalem Cross associated with the Kingdom of Jerusalem and the modern country of Georgia.

The town of Edison, New Jersey, has moved to prohibit so-called ‘props’—including American flags and the U.S. Constitution—at city council meetings, claiming their display is disruptive. The ban was enacted through a new local ordinance that also limits how long a resident can address the council.
Established after a nearly five-hour-long council meeting, many Edison residents contend the city government is attempting to stifle complaints about how their tax dollars are being spent and from voicing concerns regarding public safety. “To consider the American flag and the Constitution a prop when someone raises it is an insult to what the flag is, what the flag stands for, and what this country is,” Edison resident Maryann Hennessey said at the recent meeting where the council approved the ordinance. She continued: “For you to consider the use of the American flag a prop is disgusting.”
Another resident, Joel Bassoff, was removed from the meeting after pulling out a small American flag and waving it while speaking before the city council members. “He is in violation; he can be removed,” ordered Council President Nish Patel, the sponsor of the ordinance banning the display of the American flag and U.S. Constitution.
In addition, the enacted measure bars residents from wearing costumes or masks without a medical reason. Speakers can also be removed if they’re deemed disruptive or too loud.
Other residents say they fail to understand why the council is punishing those living in the town at large when only a handful of individuals tend to disrupt their meetings. “It’s juvenile to fight this war; you’re losing. It’s just making people more agitated and more determined to do something to provoke getting thrown out. Let it go,” Edison resident Sue Malone-Barber said.
