I emailed Patrick Healy, assistant managing editor for standards and trust at NYT, to ask why their story about a House report with new details of rape allegations against the President of the United States included neither those details, nor a single use of the word "rape." archive.is/1s9AM

Fascists lose in Brazil, Serbia, and Hungary. Rising protests in Albania, France, and other European countries against billionaires and corruption. Very encouraging...

Brazil, thank you for winning 👍

This is one of the most holy sh*t stories I’ve ever read in my life. www.vanityfair.com/story/jared-...

This is 👀 “Kushner’s counsel, however, said Kushner did not make any agreements or arrangements with leaders or officials in foreign countries that were not agreed to by the President of the United States and in the best interests of the United States.”

Europe’s protests began over legitimate grievances. As unrest escalated, hostile disinformation and influence networks exploited the crisis, distorted its causes, spread fabricated content, amplified violence, inflamed divisions and undermined public trust.

Holy shit. Every single Democrat: This is the message. This right here. This is the whole ass pitch the voters in the weeks before the election.

According to fmr Canada deputy PM Freeland, US Commerce Sec Lutnick accused Canada of acting like Ukraine; threatened to send US troops across the border unless Premier Ford abandoned his proposed 25% surcharge on electricity exports to the US, a retaliatory measure against Trump's tariffs. #cdnpoli

We must crush Elon Musk and the oligarchs. It's either us or them. They are playing for all the marbles.

Globally, Canada is tied for most liked country in the world while the US is fifth most disliked country, after Iran, Afghanistan, North Korea, and Israel.

We’ve been talking about this for years. None of these far-right movements are organic.

The head of the Trump crime family made a deal with Putin-Kremlin crime syndicate – betraying Ukraine, every U.S. ally and his duty to defend American national security. Trump is a filthy traitor – the worst Quisling who has ever lived.

Conflicts of interest? Really? That's what we're calling crazed corruption and betrayal of US national interests these days?

🔥JACK SMITH: "Trump engaged in serious crimes against 🇺🇸- a criminal scheme to prevent a lawful transfer of power... the rule of law faces challenges unlike any we've experienced. I won't be silenced by threats of prosecution. While fear may be contagious, courage is as well."

Jack Smith: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 election, he engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power"

Yeah, if we held the developer of rogue AI agents accountable for every count of their agent's crimes, there wouldn't be a need to express concern. The consequences would be enough to make them more cautious and responsible.

New reporting from @globalnews.ca: “The gunman accused of opening fire at police outside an Ontario synagogue left the army after expressing conspiracy theories about COVID-19”

“They were once men, great kings of men. Then Sauron the Deceiver gave to them nine rings of power. Blinded by their greed they took them without question, one by one, falling into darkness. Now they are slaves to his will. They are the Nazgûl, ring-wraiths, neither living nor dead.”

@robbonta.bsky.social your capitulation is embarrassing

Media is reporting that the Alberta separatist side of referendum fund-raising, and thus spending, is greatly outpacing the “stay in Canada” side. In the “on-line-chatter” too. That’s not surprising when you remember that separatism is being pushed by Russian and American disinformation purveyors.

“Both Russian and pro-Trump U.S. actors are amplifying and spreading misinformation about Alberta separatism in the hope of fraying Canadian unity and sowing distrust.” An overt attack on Canadian sovereignty, meant specifically to manipulate Canadians. That’s what’s fuelling Alberta separation.

Like how Mark Zuckerberg did such a great job protecting our kids on Facebook and Instagram? Please.

Dear NBC, CNN, and every other billionaire-owned legacy outlet: If you think I'm paying a monthly subscription to read your online articles, which used to have no paywalls, so that you can adjust half a percent or whatever in revenue, you are smoking some really good shit.

Ukraine’s cause — freedom, democracy, sovereignty — is our cause. When peace comes, and it will come, Canada will be there.

"When Lutnick appeared with Chung 2 days after 9/11, I took everything he said at face value. We were all so traumatized & he seemed so sincere. But now? You’ll excuse me, but I doubt every word that’s ever come out of Lutnick’s mouth—whether last week on Squawk Box or 25 yrs ago on Connie Chung."

So, Trump's biggest benefactor, Elon Musk, is a eugenicist & white supremacist who supports Germany's AfD, which promotes neo-Nazi ideologies. The State Department hires a Nazi enthusiast Nate Hochman as the Trump Administration unveils Nazi uniforms for Space Force. Oh well let's condemn Piker.

Apparently people are sharing this far and wide on social media, which I think is horrible. This could cripple ICE operations. PLEASE do not share this.

Mass protests against the Trump regime in Washington, DC and across the United States have entered their 647th day. Ha ha, just kidding. That’s Tbilisi, Georgia, where people have been protesting a corrupt regime. In the US everyone is at home playing Grand Theft Auto and watching American Idol.

President Donald Trump's "incoherence" in a little-noticed exclusive interview with GB News caught the eye of a British journalist who was startled by what he witnessed, he said Friday.

just talk about musk the way republicans would if he was a democrat a bigoted antisemitic weird foreign billionaire with a weird breeding fetish and a nazi pedo chatbot is funding the republican party. if republicans don't denounce, we know they are pro-nazi pedo bot and the voters should know.

As our amazing 🇨🇦 women’s indoor vball team clinches its place in the #LA2028 #Olympics, I must ask: Are we going to begin having real convos about whether these Games can even take place in LA? #USA is increasingly dangerous (to live in and) for visitors, and is threatening Canada’s sovereignty.

The longer governments and firms frame this only in environmental, economic & sovereignty terms, while ignoring broader public concerns about pace, direction & ethical implications of AI and other digital tech, the more frustrated everyone will become. www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

In technical terms, this is referred to as a "pinky swear." And it's just as binding and effective. "The responsible development principles do not include any compliance mechanism or penalties for broken pledges." This is not serious governance.

Did you know if we add four seats to SCOTUS in 2029, we could bring back the charges against Trump for January 6? They could overturn the immunity ruling and consider tolling the statute of limitations for the duration of Trump’s presidency. We could also resurrect the classified documents case.
