Vianne Timmons, the president of Memorial University of Newfoundland, has been placed on paid leave over questions about her claims of Native American heritage.

Paging Elizabeth Warren!

Timmons has apparently claimed to be descended from the Mi’kmaq Indians, but the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation did a little digging and the story began to transform into a scandal.

Townhall reports:

University President on Paid Leave After Claiming Indigenous Identity

The president of Memorial University of Newfoundland went on paid leave after she became caught up in a scandal surrounding her claims of her Indigenous heritage.

President Vianne Timmons’ paid leave from the university came after a report from Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) that questioned claims that Timmons was of Native American descent. The report was “prompted by questions raised by individuals, including those in Indigenous communities, across Canada,” it state. Specifically, the article was aimed at figuring out if Timmons’ Indigenous identity opened any doors for her professionally. In the article, she claimed that it never did.

After the article questioning her heritage was released, Timmons issued a statement where she apologized and said that she will step back from her role from the university temporarily.

“While I have shared that I am not Mi’kmaw and I do not claim an Indigenous identity, questions about my intentions in identifying my Indigenous ancestry and whether I have benefited from sharing my understanding of my family’s history have sparked important conversations on and beyond our campus,” Timmons wrote in a statement released this week. “I have been reflecting on this feedback from the Indigenous community, and I sincerely regret any hurt or confusion sharing my story may have caused. That was never my intention and I deeply apologize to those I have impacted.”

Why does this happen so frequently?

Memorial University President Vianne Timmons is now on voluntary paid leave after igniting controversy over her claim that she has Indigenous heritage.

For @guardian, I wrote about Vianne Timmons stepping down due to questions around her claims that she has Indigenous heritage.

There have been multiple recent cases at universities involving alleged fraud by faculty.

People who make these claims almost always seem to rely on something one of their family members once told them.

That’s just not good enough.

“These Corrupt DAs, the DOJ, the FBI, You Name It. For Seven Years They Haven’t Been Investigating Crimes. They’ve Been Investigating a Person.” – Liz Harrington Spars with Chris Cuomo (VIDEO)

Liz Harrington was on with Chris Cuomo and they discussed, and sparred, on recent events and the last seven years of the Deep State attacking President Trump.

When Cuomo started off by trying to suggest that President Trump is for riots in the streets, which is totally not true, Liz Harrington shared:

Chris, you just said it. You said the people should decide. Let’s have a debate. Let’s have an election. The real problem here is they’re trying to take away that choice from the American people.

These corrupt DAs, the DOJ, the FBI, you name it. For seven years they haven’t been investigating crimes. They’ve been investigating a person. Why – to stop him and to stop his political movement.

And you talked about two sides in this country, you’re on to something here. But the two sides aren’t left and right. It’s the uniparty, the people in power, versus the people. That is the two sides here that we have right now.

An you talk about all the bad things happening here in our country. The uniparty is very content with the status quo because they get richer, they get more power, and they’re happy as long as those two things continue.

Who disrupts the status quo? It’s President Donald J. Trump… the best way in making America great again.

Next Jan 6 came up and all hell broke loose.

Another great interview by Liz Harrington.

BIDEN ECONOMY: Federal Government Spending UP 40% Since 2019 as Inflation Soars and Recession Looms

The Biden economy is destroying America and our way of life as we know it. The main element behind the 40-year high inflation, the rising interest rates and the banking segment collapse is Biden’s spending. It’s almost uncontrollable.

Steve Bannon laid it out nicely. Biden’s spending is leading to inflation, rising interest rates and the banking segment collapse.

DEVELOPING: Moody’s Cuts Outlook For Entire US Banking Sector, Puts Six Banks on ‘Downgrade’ Watch

The CATO Institute laid out the massive spending in a recent report.

Federal spending jumped from $4.45 trillion in 2019 to $6.21 trillion in 2023, according to the Congressional Budget Office. That is a 40 percent increase in four years. The pandemic supercharged the federal budget, and spending and deficits are expected to continue rising unless policymakers pursue major reforms.

What is all the new spending since 2019? The answer is surprising, as shown in the two tables below. The main drivers of the recent increases have not been the largest three programs—Social Security, Medicare, and defense—but rather rapid growth in numerous other programs.

CATO shows the amount of spending by category:

Below is the increase in spending by Department. Food stamps are the big driver under the Department of Agriculture.

Hidden in these numbers are the costs for the millions of illegal aliens who have been allowed to enter this country and the costs of paying people to stay home.

This mess is a nightmare and will only accelerate as the Biden regime works daily to take down America.
