The Trump administration's $25bn Polar LNG project on Alaska's North Slope will be turned over to a Kremlin proxy, the Financial Times and New York Times report, quoting former Exxon executives. For Alaska voters, this is the big October surprise as they head for the polls.

yup.

thehandbasket.coRepublicans don’t have a Nazi problem—they are the Nazi problemA spate of recent revelations have shown the ideologies and their adherents are one and the same.

This week’s main story is about how more and more white nationalists, antisemites, and Nazi sympathizers seem to be integrating into the Republican Party, how some of them are currently running for office, and how old you can be for JD Vance to consider you “a very young boy.”

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

@indiginews.bsky.social was at two #Winnipeg #Manitoba rallies to oppose Bill C-39 that would rush major infrastructure projects through a "one review, one-year" timeline. #Indigenous land defenders, climate justice organizers want to protect the #HudsonBay, from an #LNG facility/pipeline, etc.

No blasphemy too obscene or lie too bold. From Roy Cohn to Winter Park Florida it's a moral infection.

Another stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian students voted out their authoritarian leadership after months of protests against corruption, taking their fight from the streets to the ballot box and turning people power into political power.

"Genocide II(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group" using second-generation cut-off. Ottawa has a genocide perception working group to downplay and distract from their actions. They got Sinclair to say "cultural genocide" despite 1907 Bryce Report and St Anne's torture.

Q: Do you support the deal with Russia to buy diesel? ROGER MARSHALL: If this brings Russia to the bargaining table and ends the war, then I'm all for it ADAM HAMILTON: What you said just now is you're gonna sell out our friends in Ukraine. That's not okay. It's indecent

Hegseth definitely won’t have a hissy fit over the fact that his officers are laughing at him behind his back while also leaking to the press. He will probably use this as a moment of quiet self-reflection, to understand how he can become a better boss — and human being.

The answer is yes. He can win. Because he doesn’t throw trans folks under the bus, for one.

Trump: "I'm studying his body. I've never studied the body of a man before. It's not my thing. Nothing wrong with it, of course. But it's never been my thing. But I looked at his ass. I said, 'His ass, shit, it's like a pile of muscle.' Then I looked at his legs and I said, 'Man, his feet are big.'"

THEY ARE NOT POWERLESS TO STOP HIM! Go back to Washington, stand on the steps of the Capitol and demand Johnson and Thune recall the House and Senate, and impeach him. THIS IS HOW IT IS SUPPOSED TO WORK! THERE IS LITERALLY AN INSTRUCTION MANUAL! (It's called the Constitution.)

Republican lawmakers are incensed about Trump's dismissal of Ukraine — and powerless to stop him. That frustration hit a new peak on Monday as they sought to address Trump’s decision to purchase Russian diesel, waive sanctions on Moscow, and potentially stop sharing intelligence with Ukraine.

And even asking the separation question has hurt both Alberta and Canada, economically and reputationally, which is a win for the vile Russian and American campaigns to weaken and divide our country, even if separation is shot down (and especially if the result isn’t an overwhelming repudiation).

What's newer is Canada's neighbour overtly trying to influence and fan flames of referendum bid, warns a new report on foreign interference.
Brent Toderian@brenttoderian.bsky.social

As Canada awaits the Alberta separation referendum results, let’s remember how stupid this all is. Huge public money spent on a Russian & American-fuelled separation movement for an awfully-written and badly managed unbinding referendum on whether to hold a binding referendum that would be illegal.

“[Donald Trump's] always been a narcissistic sociopath, a psychopath. His ego is so sensitive to slights or perceived criticisms. He knows he’s not that smart, he knows he had to cheat to get ahead. If you look at the history of people like Trump, Hitler was a psychopath and a delusional one. ...

I think they will try to lock that information down, just like the government did with the JFK files. The investigative records from the Warren Commission and the House Select Committee on Assassinations were initially classified and slated to remain closed for 50 to 75 years.

But DOJ says any direct conversations with Trump would be protected by constitutional privileges, so it can’t disclose that to the court. DOJ also argues that redesigning the golf course isn’t subject to review under the Administrative Procedure Act, comparing it to mowing the lawn. 3/3
