Norway, showing that joy in just being there, AND winning can go together It is proving that 'participation medals' don't have to undermine competition. By not keeping score for athletes 12 and under, they're fostering a culture that's actually winning 🏆 the winter Olympics, and the culture wars

Lawyers for Epstein accusers reached a proposed settlement — the latest effort to compensate his victims. Pending approval, his estate has secured $35M for new payouts. The estate previously paid 195 claimants $170M via its 'Epstein Victims Compensation Program'. More stories that will be sealed.

It's also important to remember how many other important cases have been suspended, sidelined, shut down, or have had funding, and staff, cut off. Oh yes, and the rule of law doesn't matter anymore.

Team Canada, Women's Hockey: You played amazing for 2 periods, hung on for a 3rd, and... well, nevermind. At least you won SILVER as expected!! And Desbois... You gave your team a real fighting chance

Some commentary is calling the Prince Andrew arrest as 'unprecidented', completely ignoring Charles I, and Mary Queen of Scots, both arrested and executed. I guess historical figures don't count

Team Canada Men's Hockey

Popularity poll. Yeah, I'd be worried

Curling??? Is that an actual topic

This is such a punk ass move by Tom Wilson, who got buried by Crinon before they were pulled apart by the refs, and then jumps Crinon for the second time WHILE CRINON HAS TWO REFS RESTRAINING HIM That's some serious bullshit Wilson should be ashamed of

Tumbler Ridge Shooting - PREVIOUSLY SEIZED WEAPONS: Approximately two years prior to the shooting, police had seized firearms from the family home under the Criminal Code following mental health-related calls. However, the lawful owner of those weapons successfully petitioned to have them returned

Oops!! @apnews.com

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise. BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

BALINT: Was the president aware of Secretary Lutnick's ties to Epstein when he chose him to lead the Department of Commerce? BONDI: Chris Malen was a Border Patrol agent---- BALINT: So I'm going to conclude that he did know! BONDI: Shame on you BALINT: This is pathetic! This is not a game

BONDI: You didn't ask Merrick Garland anything about Epstein BALINT: Weak sauce BONDI: And with this antisemitic culture right now, she voted against a resolution-- BALINT: You want to go there! Really? Talking about antisemitism to a woman who lost her grandfather in the Holocaust! *storms off*

Terrible mass shooting in Tumbler BC. British Columbia has never experienced violence of this kind before. The leaders of France, Germany, Australia, UK (the King AND the PM), India, Ukraine (it has its own worries), Norway, Ireland, Croatia, Sweden, Latvia, Greece, Moldova, BUT NOT TRUMP... Yet?

Condolences and support are pouring in, in the wake of the tragedy in Tumbler Ridge, from around the world. Thankfully, trump hasn't opened his pie hole to say something dumb, yet!

Apparently talking about feelings and expressing support for positive values...is "political" @apnews.com

Speaking of Patriots... Trump is not one. Athletes on #TeamUSA, stand up for each other for your FREEDOM to make innocuous speech!

Damn Pepsi! Time to take on and make fun of Trump. Leave Coke alone

NEW STORY: Trump admits he was the one who found the video and asked that it be posted from his Truth Social account. Refuses to apologize.

Today, the racist who in the 70s wouldn’t rent to Black people, who said Obama couldn’t have been born in the U.S. because he’s black, who called Mexicans rapists and who said Haitians were eating pets, managed to outdo himself.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune said Thursday that the REASONABLE demands made by Democrats for new restrictions on federal immigration officers are “unrealistic”. He also promised that Homeland Security will shut down next week if they do not compromise. Woot!

Don't mention anything Steve Bannon says, without mentioning the 20,000 times he appears in the Epstein files

Good morning and Happy Thursday 👋 If you are a #NeverTrump and would like me to help grow your account please comment or leave a meme. It’s more important than ever to build a coalition and keep in touch with what’s going on in the world by this out of control regime. We are in it together. 🔂

The Trump Legacy, 2.0.

MAGA has no class, no class, no self awareness... No self regulation

No kidding America. No kidding.

The U.S. ranks 40th in healthcare—dead last on this list—yet Congress keeps shoveling billions into ICE. We fund raids, cages, and weapons while people die waiting for care. This isn’t incompetence. It’s priorities. And they’re lethal. #FundHealthcareOverICE #USDemocracy #Pinks

apnews.com/live/donald-... declares February is Black History Month So did he??

I asked AI to analyze Nick Adam's writing about 'Melania', attached. "Verdict: This is a human-authored 'copypasta' or satirical post intended to go viral through its sheer absurdity."

Lol. So Billie Eilish was mocked as a "hypocrite", said Fox News for declaring "no one is illegal on stolen land" while owning a massive Hollywood property. The problem, housing wasn't her beef. She was saying, most everyone is an immigrant, and no one should judge newcomers for a fault we all share

What an endorsement, as Morgan Freeman goes full on nerd pundit youtu.be/-q3J-0-4Odg?...

Gee... Do you think the US Treasury will settle with the President?? Maybe the people should sue him for "reputational and financial harm, public embarrassment, unfairly tarnished reputations...", and generally f*cking everything and everyone!! apnews.com/article/trum...

Granpa tantrum. 🙄 He knows the F-35 contract is hanging by a thread and may be cancelled at any moment. Bombardier might be involved in helping build the new planes in Canada. So this is just another attempt to try pressure Canada into staying hostage of the U.S. Buy the Gripen, CANCEL the F-35.

TIL Bell's commercial products are all made in Canada lmao

"We don't need Canadian products. We don't need anything from Canada"

I won't dignify it with a screen shot. But what Trump has proclaimed about Gulfstream and Bombardier aircraft is literally insane. (He fantasizes that Canada is discriminating against Gulfstreams. So he fantasizes that on his say-so the US will decertify Bombardiers.) This is NUTS. He is nuts.

Alberta politicians, namely Danielle Smith running to the White House to undermine Canada isn’t leadership it’s treason! You don’t wave the flag at home while lobbying a foreign government to fracture your own country. Canada is sovereign, and not for sale! #SheShed #DefendersOfDemocracy

Re Gulfstream G500 - G800. The aviation certification processes between the U.S. and Canada is traditionally highly collaborative, and such a public breakdown in regulatory reciprocity is unprecedented in the aviation sector. Is America pushing to certify dangerous planes, or is Canada playing?

“It’s time for President Trump to ramp up mass deportations even more,” Laura Loomer, a Trump lapdog told The Associated Press today. “And if Minnesota is any barometer, it’s time for the focus to be on deporting as many Muslims as possible.”

Report on actions and material conditions first, then critical and contextualized assessment of rhetoric only after that. Uncritical repetition or sympathetic interpretation of rhetoric is frankly completely patronizing to the reader/viewer.

See this? The widely circulated Trump critique by Oliver Kornetzke reads: "Behold. The festering carcass of American rot shoved into an ill-fitting suit: the sleaze of a conman, the cowardice of a draft dodger, the gluttony of a parasite, the racism of a Klansman, the sexism of a back-alley creep...
