Solidarity today and every day with Ukrainian friends. #VyshyvankaDay

As Ukraine Hits Deeper Into Russia, Putin Retreats Into Isolation. My latest…

Seven strike UAVs were recorded hitting five locations, and the downed UAVs (debris) were found at five locations. The attack is ongoing, with several enemy UAVs in the airspace.

This is a massive court decision that will reverberate far beyond Waterloo Region: an Ontario judge has ruled the Region cannot vacate unhoused individuals at an encampment site - if there is nowhere else for them to go - because it violates their constitutional rights.

For more than a decade, Stephen Colbert has been one of the top voices of late night—making us laugh and, even more importantly, reminding us who we are and what America stands for. Michelle and I enjoyed being Stephen’s guests—even when the games were rigged—and we’re grateful to call him a friend.

I worked on Taiwan arms sales in the 1990’s while in the State’s Political-Military Affairs bureau. Very careful consideration given to each system. Full inter-agency and NSC collaboration. The idea was to send defensive systems and avoid provocative power-projection systems. I’m sick over this

Nuuk, Greenland is now going to the American Consulate to protest against America. Way to go, Greenland! Americans agree with you!!! Leave Greenland alone. Stop trying to steal every countries resources!!

Do you ever look a people and wonder what kind of ants crawl in their brain? Never a dull moment.

Vyshyvanka day in Kharkiv ❤️🇺🇦

Russian propaganda on Bluesky first became notable during Germany’s elections last year, when the Kremlin sought to bolster Germany’s far right, led by the Alternative for Germany party, known as AfD. Joseph Bodnar, a researcher with the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, an international organiz

This is so beautiful! Of course I canceled my Paramount subscription. Stephen Colbert will be truly missed 🥺 #Pinks #USDemocracy

A Florida wildlife biologist was summarily fired for *reposting* an Instagram joke about Charlie Kirk’s death. LibsofTikTok complained. A state official’s false statements in legal proceedings led to sanctions. And now the state will settle by paying her $485,000. www.aclufl.org/press-releas...

For what it's worth, here's what I'm hearing about today's announcement by Danielle Smith. She's not going to announce a referendum on the Lukaszuk petition. Instead, she's announcing a referendum on *holding a binding referendum* down the road. That way, she *still* avoids taking a position.

Happy Vyshyvanka Day! Our identity - Наша ідентичність Our language - Наша мова Our culture Наша культура Our land - Наша земля

Air raid sirens. Drones over the city. Russia attacks public transport, trains and civilian infrastructure so regularly that everybody already knows the routine. The second alerts sound, people dive underground into subway corridors and underpasses carrying children, pets and shopping bags.

A good article on Canada’s army brigade in Latvia. It backs what I and others have been saying about the Russian threat there. h/t @jaynegallaghe20.bsky.social www.defensenews.com/global/europ...

Uhh this does not sound like "a possible Ebola exposure" it just sounds like a passenger from DRC? Extremely not the same thing! www.freep.com/story/news/h...

Of course they were.

REUTERS: “Enrique Tarrio, Proud Boys leader sentenced ‌to 22 years for seditious conspiracy over the January 6, 2021 riot, said he planned to get between $2 & $5 million.” We are so far off the cliff. 🇺🇸 www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Stephen Colbert is all class. 👏👏👏 #Pinks #ProudBlue @colbertlateshow.bsky.social

The American blockade of Cuba is immoral.

BREAKING: Alberta voter data has appeared on the website of a US company named repeatedly by separatist David Parker. After @rorywh.bsky.social discovered the breach, the website was taken down amid questions from Elections Alberta.

Appalled by the treatment of flotilla members by Israeli Minister Ben-Gvir. This behaviour is completely unacceptable. We call for their immediate release.

"Oh," Canada. We're not any better. "A legislative committee deciding what to do re: a pro-Confederation petition descended into procedural chaos at Alberta's legislature on Wed. after the governing UCP caucus sent out a news release that presumed the outcome of a vote that hadn’t yet happened."

This ends with J6ers clashing with Secret Service agents as they break into the White House in a last-ditch effort to overturn decisions of the Anti-Weaponization Fund commissioners

Enrique Tarrio of the Proud Boys will seek compensation from Trump’s $1.776 billion slush fund. He’s playing the victim. “I'm not greedy," Tarrio said. "But my life was all fucked up because of this." On Jan. 6, he was proud of what he & his men accomplished, texting: “Make no mistake…we did this.”

He's not planning on leaving. That's what the ballroom bunker equipped with drones is for. It's why he's calling for Thune to fire the parliamentarian who's refusing to allow the $1B for the ballroom in the reconciliation bill. It's why he's paying the insurrectionists with his slush fund.

Holy Cow!!!! How much was the fix in? The UCP released a media release announcing their separatist referendum before the committee had even voted! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Democracy is not supposed to work like this. Doug Ford shuts down debate, rejects amendments, blocks opposition bills, and rushes massive omnibus legislation through Queen’s Park. Ontario deserves better than a government that treats accountability like an inconvenience.

The level of stupid & faux outrage surrounding the Snowbirds’ move to the PC-21 & away from the 60 yr old Tutor is something to behold. “They’re destroying our heritage!” “DEI wins!” “We’re a joke!” Fucking idiots. They’d have the team fly old CF-18s instead. I’ll just leave this here:

Actual self-assured men don't have to keep assuring everyone of how self-assured they are.

2/ But strong words must be followed by strong action. Sanctioning individual ministers is not enough when this cruelty is mirrored in Israeli state policy. Close the loophole on arms sales, cancel the free trade agreement and use every tool in Canada’s diplomatic arsenal to end Israel’s impunity.

1/ It’s a relief to hear the Prime Minister express some moral outrage over Ben-Gvir’s brutish behaviour, outrage which has been missing during Israel’s attack on Iran, bombardment of Lebanon and ongoing genocide in Gaza.

I have a hot tip for FBI Director Kash Patel about even more murders by a head of state. More than 190 civilians slain in extrajudicial killings at sea. Find the full list in the boat strike tracker @theintercept.com theintercept.com/2025/11/17/t...

I enjoyed chatting with Stephen Colbert on "The Late Show" last summer. He has always been kind to me when I've been a guest on his various shows — and he's a wicked smart satirist. Are you planning to tune in to his farewell episode tomorrow night?

1/5 The most overlooked and probably most important reason why russia decided to attack Ukraine? Ukrainians decided to live a life in freedom, to have a state that serves the people, that facilitates society's development, rather than subjugating its own people. ...

APPLEBAUM: War in Ukraine is fault line between democratic and autocratic worlds. Russians are trying to destroy Ukraine as a nation, they want it to disappear. As an empire, they want Ukraine to be their colony. And they understood that by invading Ukraine, they were defying liberal world order.
