Once again, the question is not "where is the Palestinian Mandela?" but "where is the Israeli John Brown?"

Best part of this bullshit push poll from the libertarians at the Montreal Economic Institute - the casual claim that men support privatization because they just have more awareness.

First as tragedy, then as farce.

13 down. 29 months to go.

New Massive Attack and Tom Waits (wow) - Boots On The Ground:

I find Poilievre to be a loathsome disgusting figure, but this backlash is telling. Central bank heads are extremely capable of making mind-numbingly terrible economic policy. Acting like they are modern gods walking infallibly amongst us is actually part of the reason everything sucks now.

Party that exists only to obtain power not sure what to do now

I found the dumbest take. We can stop looking now. www.wsj.com/opinion/ai-i...

Striking that the Liberals and Conservatives offer the same response to pain at the pump: siphon money out of the public purse instead of Big Oil’s profits.

Eagerly awaiting Trump's next declaration of war. Possibly against China. More likely: against the Sun.

Are they wary of all converts or just the freak reactionary weirdo converts like JD and Conrad Black? When the new guy is all "I have joined you in your war against secularism and to embrace our Roman forebears!" standoffishness is pretty justified.

Creeping privatisation is destroying our NHS while lining the pockets of the wealthy. We need to kick these vultures out of our healthcare service and bring it back in house.

Iran can stay angry longer than the world can stay solvent

At least Nero could play violin.

The fuck is a carom

Well, as long as it’s good for you personally Marilyn. That’s what we’re all here for.

1/ Hours after Iran and the U.S. reached a ceasefire deal, Israel launched one of its most devastating attacks on Lebanon to date. Over a hundred strikes in ten minutes - carnage in Beirut, where hundreds of thousands of displaced people are sheltering. www.cbc.ca/news/world/i...

a “ceasefire” that lasted 17 hours and killed 254 people in lebanon is not a ceasefire and referring to it as one is inaccurate

BREAKING NEWS: Iran's Press TV says that the Strait of Hormuz has been closed.

Well there you go…

Wow, this is unexpected: Conservative MP Marilyn Gladu has crossed the floor and joined Mark Carney's Liberals

Jesus wept. What does it say about the Mark Carney Liberals that a homophobic, Ivermectin-hawking Trumpist loon like Marilyn Gladu is comfortable joining them and they’ll happily accept her? 😬

If you think this is exhausting, imagine being Iranian.

State-sponsored terrorism and nuclear ambition are bad. That's why we stand with the two nuclear powers who have declared an illegal war and are now proposing genocidal war crimes. The eighth circle of hell is for the frauds and hypocrites.

This is unacceptable waffling in the face of a genocidal maniac with a nuclear bomb. Do fucking better.

and, quiet as it's kept, this was the outcome of essentially a world war fought explicitly on the terms of achieving this outcome, much as people at the time and since have liked to portray the century as a bipolar struggle between two countries in particular

China has overtaken the U.S. in global leadership approval, Gallup data shows, as confidence in Washington declines and sentiment shifts worldwide.

It’s late Sunday night. Time for the administration to push a bogus story that will keep markets calm with a favoured outlet.

I mean you have to ask, is the Food Inspection Agency even profitable?

There is zero evidence that the VP/Cabinet see any of Trump's behaviour as problematic, nor that they would govern differently.

Did not anticipate the extent to which Iran's response would channel pro-wrestling energies.

NDP: *elects Jewish leader* Canadian media: "This is antisemitic."

Number of VPs at Metrolinx grows again: “Despite the government’s claims they were going to get Metrolinx under control, there are now 124 vice-presidents at Metrolinx,” said NDP leader @maritstilesndp.bsky.social globalnews.ca/news/1175401... #onpoli

"Canada Strong" Fun that the old Liberal statements declaring how awful this would be are still live on their website. And by "fun" I mean Liberals suck. liberal.ca/liberals-wil...

Not sure if would-be Ontario Liberal Leader Nate Erskine Smith's plan is to come off as smug, conniving, entitled yet desperate but that's certainly the tone he's hitting. www.thestar.com/politics/pro...
