Article 5 has only been invoked once, in support of the U.S. following the 9/11. Incidentally, the country the regime wants to invade next, Denmark, lost 48 soldiers in Afghanistan, the highest per capita loss of the allied forces.

It is tough for non-Americans to personally do anything to oppose what the nation is doing. Hitting their business and especially complicit tech companies seems like a way to take away some of the power on a personal scale.

I don’t believe any country has ever been invaded for its offshore wind turbines.

A bit strange that the Trump regime kidnaps a foreign leader not long after scolding Ukraine for a (fake) attack on Putin's residence?

2025 was a good year for a corrupt, self-dealing, convicted felon and his crime family. Will 2026 hold more of the same? #uspolitics #politicalcartoon #trump #corrupt #kleptocracy

Lying is the default communication style of the kremlin. They lie to justify their war crimes, their corruption and imperialist agenda. They murder, rape and torture their neighbours. Many world leaders find it easier to swallow russian lies than to do what is morally right. 1/2

NEW: The Kremlin continues to offer no evidence to support its claims that Ukrainian drones targeted Russian President Vladimir Putin’s residence on the night of December 28 to 29. 🧵(1/6) Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment, December 30, 2025: isw.pub/UkrWar123025

Since 2015, Canada's oil and gas production has increased by a third and greenhouse gas emissions remain high. With the current federal government, we should expect these trends to continue—at great cost to the planet and the public. @hadrianmk.bsky.social www.policyalternatives.ca/news-researc...

‘Twas the night before fascism, and from coast to coast, Not a corporate outlet was stirring, not even the Post; The bribes had been sent to the library with care, In hopes of placating the FCC chair.

Behold, the power of A.I.... Considering doing the @thestorygraph.com Reads The World 2026 challenge as I felt the 2025 challenge genuinely broadened my perspective and the search for books from different countries made me more aware of books I would have previously missed. A bit disappointed

I’m sure his elves are checking it twice to make sure he’s not on the (released) list. We all know that he’s guilty, and so does he. #uspolitics #politicalcartoon #trump #epsteinfiles

Oh there’s Mike Johnson. Let’s ask him about The Epstein Files.

Fox reports that that while many of the redactions to the Epstein Files were made to protect victims’ identities, “the same redaction standards were applied to politically exposed individuals and government officials.” In other words, DOJ admits that they edited Trump and his pals out.

It's brilliant. m.youtube.com/watch?v=MSZg...

All Trump supporters must acknowledge this. Their backing of the president means that they support the forced transfer of millions of Ukrainians from a democracy to a corrupt and brutal dictatorship. This is the America you have made. Own it.

PP calling out others for fuelling hate? I mean, that's pretty much his calling card. I can't think of another Canadian politician more well-known for promoting hate only to try to make personal gains.

NEW: Ukrainian forces recently liberated territory including part of the city of Kupyansk in a tactical counterattack in the Kupyansk direction. 🧵(1/6) Read the full update: isw.pub/UkrWar121225

“I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It’s even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”

Putin sits in Moscow claiming that his armies have taken a town that the Ukrainian president is personally visiting. There are cowardly tyrants and there are courageous elected leaders and it is good to know the difference.

A majority of Indiana Senate Republicans stood together to reject Trump’s mob-boss politics. There is more power in standing up to a corrupt, unpopular administration rather than playing its game. Law firms, universities, foundations, and media companies should take note.

Day 1387 of this appalling war in Europe. Started by Putin because he was certain the US + Europe were too timid to stop him. Numerous opportunities were missed and having now found an ally in Trump, look like he may be right (again) Here's Thursday's daily🧵-all day every day

Why don't US reporters ask trump about putin's backing of Venezuela or how russia is sending them military aid? This should be a Dem talking point as well, used to drive a wedge between the fascist and wanna-be fascist.

A landmark study on the safety of glyphosate, the active ingredient in the controversial herbicide Roundup, has been formally retracted by its publisher, raising new concerns about the chemical’s potential dangers. The Trump administration, meanwhile, aims to shield its manufacturer from lawsuits.

In today’s @theglobeandmail.com

On International Anti-Corruption Day, it’s worth remembering how Trump has turned the pardon power into a pay-to-play enterprise to reward wealthy donors and political allies while leaving victims in the dust 🧵

The Supreme Court is a corrupt, illegitimate institution governed by six right-wing hacks who value advancing Republican political agendas and politicians over any semblance of law or process. Democrats need a plan to address that reality.

Amazon stopped reporting its total energy consumption about two years ago, but I've estimated it here using the raw emissions data they've reported (and buried deep in hard-to-find places) Their unadjusted emissions are many times higher than their declared: ketanjoshi.co/2025/05/23/d...

In the 1940s, Nazis conquered most of Europe and a lot of the world. From 2014-2025 Putin's rabble still hasn't taken Donetsk. The Nazis were pushed back after the US joined the side of decency. Putin's neo-Nazis would also suffer the same fate if Trump had a spine or a heart.

Trump re-pardons a Jan. 6 defendant to erase unrelated gun conviction

$40B of your money to this guy, so he can dance at CPAC at Mar-a-Lago while Americans wait for their paychecks, hoping the money actually comes.

Today feels like a good day to remind everyone that there is literally no empirical evidence that economic growth will just continue if the world heats up to, say, 3°C by 2100. Continued growth is just *assumed* in every economic model of the relationship between temperatures and growth. 🧵

Fossil fuel compagnies will keep on exploiting global labor, burning the planet and dismantling sustainablity regulation until the morale improve. Also, I hope that the main cause for our inability to reverse our collective trajectory to ecological disaster is clear for everyone by now.

When we look at this massacre and many more perpetrated by the RSF, let's be clear who funds, equips & sustains them. It's the UAE. Yes, the same UAE that might own your football club, fly you on your holidays, invests in our national infrastructure. If boycotts work, we should be boycotting now.

62% of Americans, majorities with all political affiliations want the United States to send weapons to Ukraine. Not weapons sales via Europe, actual military aid funded by the US. This was 4 months ago, the support is likely higher now.

This CFL change is like if André Proulx and Jake Ireland had a baby that grew up to be a pro wrestling referee.

Gasoline salesman worries about all the people he sold matches to. #cdnpoli

Hey, remember the time when the No. 2 official at the Justice Department, who once was Trump‘s personal attorney, visited a convicted sex criminal, and then that convicted sex criminal was transferred to a cushy prison?

I’m old enough to remember when Conservatives were certain grocery prices were high because the carbon tax and not because stockholder dividends.

MacNaughton, president of Palantir Canada, sits on Carney's council for Canada/US relations. He was ambassador to the US. He and his wife - con strategist, Leslie Noble - co-founded ubiquitous spin and lobby shop, StrategyCorp. He's on the board of TC Energy and a critical minerals company too.

1/2. The phrase "land swap" is being used to mean "Ukraine concedes land illegally occupied by Russia and also concedes territory that is not even occupied." That is not a swap.

As far as Epstein files distractions go, that was pretty embarrassing, wasn’t it? The obsequious fawning and clapping. So excited to visit with a murderous war criminal. I don’t think putin gets that kind of welcome from his other toadies and vassals—Orban, Lukashenko, Fico, Kadyrov, etc. 1/2

Morning Bluesky. This is how Putin pays for his war machine.

I genuinely have a tear in my eye. Thank you Alaska. From all of us who care about justice, freedom and most of all Ukraine. This is happening right now, deep in the evening in the northernmost state of the union. THANK YOU ALASKA. #SaveUkraine
