Old Canada Series 46 years ago today, Canada saved 6 Americans in Iran. The mission, known as the Canadian Caper, saw the Canadian government and its diplomatic staff orchestrate a daring rescue of six Americans who had narrowly escaped the 1979 seizure of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran.

Tom Homan, the man who was reportedly recorded accepting $50,000 in a paper bag from businessmen, who were actually undercover FBI agents, is supposed to fix Trump’s Minnesota crisis. What could possibly go wrong?

Chris Murphy: "This is really scary because what Bovino essentially told you is that if you just happen to be present when they are undertaking an operation, if you pull out your phone to record it, the use of force against you is justified. That is not true, it's not what the law says."

It's time for a truly massive general strike. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-enough

Lawmakers should amend the Communications Act to put in guardrails that prevent the FCC from acting as an arbiter of free speech. Whether it’s late-night TV or the nightly news, free speech shouldn’t be subject to the whims of Brendan Carr and Trump.

Did Carney provoke Trump? Yes. But Trump is the Don Corleone of world politics. There is no appeasing him without his boot on your neck. You may as well express your strongly-worded objection. Trump does tend to back down when others stand up to him, even though he will then bully the weakest links.

If the U.S. is stoking Alberta separatism, it's a page out of the Putin playbook with Russian action in the Donbas. Would not surprise me.

It took less than a month for everyone to forget about the Epstein files. Shame.

For anyone wondering

Americans are realizing that unfettered federal power to detain and arrest is a very dangerous thing. I learned that lesson as a child when they put us into internment camps just for looking like the enemy. Don’t go further down this road.

Il est grand temps de parler boycott de la coupe du monde de football 2026. Ça tombe bien, elle est prévue sur 3 pays. Il suffit de boycotter celui du milieu.

Given the fact that so many politicians are still giving Trump everything he wants, I can arrive at only one conclusion: Every one of those MFs is in the Epstein files. Otherwise, they'd have impeached him and tried him for his crimes a long time ago.

Am I really the only person thinking it does not make any sense that the U.S. Congress, Republican-dominated or otherwise, is doing nothing to rein in Trump as he threatens world allies and risks WWIII?? #impeachtrump #whereiscongress
