This is a fucking disgrace.

Pete Hegseth says Americans will be able to watch a Trump-approved firing-squad execution. If he follows through, the U.S. could join a disturbing club of countries known for public executions—including Iran, Afghanistan, and North Korea.

While the he wrecks the economy, military, alliances, & trade partnerships established over many decades, old out touch billionaire Trump is at his golf resort with Natalie focused on new hair styles, ballrooms, triumphal arches, & his latest schemes to profit off the presidency.

Can these people get any more moronic?

Interior Secretary Doug Burgum revealed that Trump is pressuring Apple to rename Lake Ontario “Lake America.” “I know that the president reached out to Apple directly, so I’m sure that we may be seeing that change coming up soon to Lake America,” Burgum said on Fox

Sadly, true!

James McLeod@jamespmcleod.ca

The Lake Ontario/Lake America thing is a profoundly stupid version of it, but in millions of other subtler ways, we are force fed American values and American ideas about the world, because American companies like Google control the internet.

#CBSA officers clear Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer to enter Canada today to mark the opening of the #GordieHoweBridge. No word on whether she intends to ever go back. #cdnpoli

“We know what prevents deaths of people cycling, it’s the same thing that will shift people from ‘interested but concerned’ to choose cycling: high-quality cycling infrastructure like protected bike lanes. The only thing standing in the way of us having that is political will…” Via @cyclehalifax.ca

My new book—HOW RUSSIA WON: Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and the Fight for America—will be released on 9/15. It's the full story of Putin's decade-long clandestine attack on the US to aid Trump and Trump and the GOP's complicity in this assault. You can learn more & pre-order at HowRussiaWon.com.

He’s got to be the bride at every wedding, the corpse at every funeral and, now, the ref at every game. Gawd, I am so sick of this guy!!

Trump on Balogun: "That wasn't even an infraction...this referee, who is a little bit suspect if you check his past. He made a call nobody could believe...he's our best player, or one of our best players. And he gave him a red card. I didn't know what that meant...yes, I asked for a review by FIFA."

Federal officials ordered thousands of people to evacuate the National Mall in Washington on Saturday night ahead of a speech by President Trump and a fireworks display to celebrate the nation’s 250th birthday. Crowds were told to seek shelter as severe storms approached the city.

Idk who needs to hear this, but there is no "gender war". Women didn't try to take away men's right to vote, to education, or for property. Women don't write laws that control a man's body. Women didn't built systems that strip men of their any freedoms. This injustice does not go both ways.

ms.nowOpinion | The anti-abortion movement’s growing support for throwing women in jailThe only way to actually stop abortions in states where they’re banned, some activists argue, is to prosecute women for homicide.

This is just so sad. Why do we continually believe that damaged people can parent effectively? I’m sure there are success stories that outweigh the failures but the failures are so profound. Vulnerable , helpless children deserve better.

Mark Cuban stands behind Trump as Trump speaks on behalf of stealing from taxpayers. This is why you don't go to the White House to do events with Trump -- you end up disgracing yourself.

Who has ever shown an ID in a restaurant? This guy thinks everyone is as stupid as his boss.

Blanche: "There's a lot of things we can be doing, like voter ID. Every time you walk into a restaurant you have to show ID. How about you have to show your idea to vote? That's not anything that's crazy."

Canada to scientists: “Step right this way!”

Scott Horton@robertscotthorton.bsky.social

A study in September by the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation, a Washington think tank, warned that without a reversal, the cuts to science could shrink the US economy by nearly $1 tn over 10 years. That could leave the US lagging behind China, which is investing heavily in research.

Most articulate guest ever!

Moynihan: Don't look to DC for moral clarity Mockler: I could have looked up to Obama and actually learned patience. If I look to Trump, I don't even know what I learn from that. Be an absolute asshole to anyone who interacts with you. What's the lesson that I'm supposed to take from this guy?

Aww, I love this ❤️

A viral dog rescue from 2016 is now immortalized with a statue in Kazakhstan. When a dog fell into the Sayran reservoir, bystanders formed a human chain to pull him to safety. The statue is a reminder of the value of unity, solidarity and collective action. 14/10 for all
