Rebel News Founder Ezra Levant Arrested Covering Palestinian Protest in Toronto, Jaguar Goes “Woke!” and Panic in the MS-DNC
Rebel News Founder Ezra Levant Arrested Covering Palestinian Protest in Toronto
Canadian political pundit and Rebel News publisher Ezra Levant has been arrested at a pro-Hamas rally in Toronto, “held in a predominantly Jewish neighborhood,” after he refused police instructions to move away from the demonstration, according to the November 24th, 2024 Times of Israel post, “Right-wing activist arrested at anti-Israel rally in Toronto after refusing to cross road: ‘It’s because I’m a Jew’.”
Levant claimed he was being discriminated against for “being Jewish” and covering the protest for Rebel News, a Canadian based online media platform not considered to be an “accredited media organization” under current Canadian law.
In a video of the arrest posted to social media by Levant’s Rebel News platform, officers can be heard telling the conservative activist that his presence at the pro-Palestinian rally was “inciting the crowd.”
“It’s because I’m a Jew,” Levant insists during an argument with the officer over his order to move away from the demonstration.
“I’m refusing to leave because I’m a Jew, and I’m a citizen, and I’m your boss. And I don’t leave because you say Jews aren’t allowed on this side of the street.”
The officer then tells him he is under “arrest for breaching the peace,” at which point the protesters erupt in cheers and calls of “Zionist” and “loser.”
As noted on the November 24th, 3034 Rebel News post, “I just got out of jail. Here’s what happened — and what happens next,” Levant was released without being charged, shortly after being removed from the immediate area of the protest.
Here’s an overview of the situation from the November 24, 2024 Rebel News post, “My boss, Ezra Levant was just arrested | Sheila Gunn Reid.”
Jaguar Goes “Woke!”
Jaguar has launched a controversial rebranding campaign to signal its transition to an all-electric lineup.
As outlined in the November 24th, 2024 “X“ post, “Jaguar's Rebrand: Tradition Meets Controversy,” the new campaign doesn’t show cars but instead focuses on groups of diverse, human models swaddled in jarring, postmodernist and mostly primary colors.
This seems to have sparked criticism from those intent on questioning the campaign's relevance who accuse it of erasing Jaguars “brand heritage.”
Here’s the new ad as per the November 19th, 2024 Jaguar on YouTube post, “Jaguar | Copy Nothing.”
The ad isn’t the only thing different about the new marketing campaign.
Here’s the quick, corporate explanation as to why.
A lot of pundits have weighed in of the campaign, including another British institution, UK Reform Party Leader Nigel Farage, who posted the November 21st, 2024 Nigel Farage on YouTube post, “Mark my words, Jaguar will go bust.”
The ad has also come in for some vicious parodies even, as outlined in the November 23rd, 2024 The Telegraph post, “Jaguar boss says criticism of new advert is ‘vile hatred and intolerance,’” the Jaguar CEO insists that critics of the campaign are morally obligated to embrace the new stereotypes which he officially insists will help sell his cars.
But unofficially, these images are political images, advocated for and promoted by companies like BlackRock and people like UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer who, seems to have close ties with BlackRock and wants some of their money.
Why else would Rawdon Glover, the managing director of Jaguar, say that the car company campaign message had been lost in “a blaze of intolerance,” or insist that the carmaker must move away from “traditional automotive stereotypes.”
Essentially, he needs BlackRock’s support and funding to continue to build his cars and BlackRock loans are easier to obtain when he consciously advocates for BlackRock ideology.
Glover isn’t really all that much different than Starmer. Both have gone begging to the world’s largest asset manager and the money they’ve received has come with constraints.
Here’s BlackRock CEO Larry Fink on the topic:
It’s worth noting that, as outlined in the November 20th, 2024 Epoch Times post, “78 Percent of Canadian CEOs Prioritizing ESG Due to Regulations: Survey,” senior corporate executives do not prioritize environmental, social, and governance (ESG) policies and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives because they believe it will increase sales, or provide any overall benefit to either their business or to the larger society.
They do it only because they must. They’re being bribed.
The pabulum from Jaguar marketing about the “change of focus” needed to attract electric car buyers perceived of as being “design minded, cash rich, time-poor, urban customers” by offering “premium experiences over high sales volume” is essentially crap forced upon them by the most evil company in the world.
Whether their current marketing strategy is simply intended to implode Jaguar, force it into bankruptcy and allow it to eventually be auctioned off for pennies on the dollar to other BlackRock funded organizations, or if there is some other larger, more nefarious purpose behind the campaign, only one thing is certain.
The current Jaguar marketing campaign is not designed to help either Jaguar or the larger society.
The only beneficiary will be BlackRock.
Panic in the MS-DNC
We finish up with the November 23rd, 2024 Mongo Minds on Bitchute post, “Panic At Msdnc-1.” which illustrates the fear consuming US based legacy media as a result of the recently concluded US presidential election.
Enjoy.

Ezra Levant's pro-Zionist bias in Rebel News is so disappointing given that his reporters did such a fine job on the Covid scam. Can some enterprising journalist dig into Rebel's finances and—surprise, surprise—find that they're funded by AIPAC or some other Jewish lobby? So disgusting for Levant to pitch himself as a "victim" of antisemitism while hundreds of thousands of Palestinians are murdered, nearly 70% of them women and children.
