A little something for your morning:

Oh. “We have agreed” — how nice of them! Surely they’re doing this work pro bono right?

“At least 12 states have either provided or said they will provide their full statewide voter registration lists, including driver’s license and Social Security numbers: Alaska, Arkansas, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nebraska, Ohio, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, and Wyoming.”

Wow, he has written a lot of books. It’s always refreshing to me to see books like this one, HCR’s Democracy Awakening, Joyce Vance’s Giving Up is Unforgivable or John Fugelsang’s The Separation of Church and Hate with waiting lists (often pretty long ones) in the DoD digital library 🔥🏆

Trump's psychotic, murderous post: "Iran is being beat to HELL … They said, 'Thank you President Trump.' I said, 'You’re welcome!' ... Today Iran will be hit very hard! Under serious consideration for destruction & certain death are groups of people not considered for targeting until this moment"

This is in the same category but so much worse than Dan Quayle misspelling “potato.” Dan Quayle’s job wasn’t directly related to the spelling of “potato.” Our education minister laughingly admits he can’t do grade school math, yet makes decisions about people’s lives based on his innumeracy #nspoli

We could have stopped all this from happening if #Republicans held pedophiles accountable. Be they empowered them. The party of rapists are committing #WarCrimes.

Trump/MAGA will bankrupt #America and lose #Iran War. #Russia AND #China are now aiding #Iran #DraftDodger

L’ancien prince Andrew devrait être retiré de la succession au trône, dit Carney

There's no act more cowardly than sinking an unarmed ship under a banner of peace and leaving the survivors to drown and worse. It's official. #PeteHegseth is a mass murderer or a #WarCriminal, and the WORST kind of COWARD, there's no in between.

More Australian stories. More local jobs.

CALL TO ACTION: Today #PamBondi announced a new rule that would stop state bar associations from investigating misconduct by lawyers. We can work to stop this rule by writing comments stating our objections! youtube.com/shorts/434iX...

📽️NEW: One year ago, Trump launched his war on law firms. Now, the DOJ dismissed its own appeal against the firms that fought back — only to reinstate it the very next morning. Marc Elias explains why this has never happened before and what it reveals about the DOJ's lack of independence.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social Exceptional as always, sharing ICYMI. I am always so much smarter after listening to her, unlike how I feel after attending some work meetings 😅

That moron who MAGA claims is playing some kind of 8-D chess started a war in the middle of the planet's oil supply without topping off the Strategic Reserve?? How dense does someone have to be to skip such a basic prep move??

The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it. 15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.

We have the data. My longest columns have more readers, who read longer, and who share them the most.

WATCH: “An extraordinary betrayal of the American people.” @krystalball.bsky.social lays out how Stephen Miller & Trump blatantly lied about being anti-war and said Kamala would do exactly what they’re doing now.

8/9 Repealing this finding doesn't just undo current vehicle standards. It forces any future administration to completely restart the years-long scientific and legal process to establish a new baseline for climate action, paralyzing federal response.

It’s absolutely ridiculous what Rachel has to put up with time and time again for her work, and how little institutional support she receives when targeted by far-right grifters and neo-Nazi thugs. Our media and journalism orgs need a wake-up call.

Former Australian PM Malcolm Turnbull on PM Carney's address to parliament: "Mark Carney is the first national leader of a major country to make this argument [about middle powers needing to work together] so clearly. And it cut through at Davos. It's been inspiring."

From 1992 to 1993, he portrayed Apocalypse\En Sabah Nur in four episodes of X-Men: The Animated Series. He returned to Star Trek, reprising his role as Kor, on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine in three episodes. Colicos also appeared in various commercials in the 1990s. 🧵 7/9

John Colicos was born on Dec. 10, 1928 in Toronto but was raised in Montreal. His first acting role was as Jesus in a Christmas pageant. By the time he was a teenager, he was acting with the Canadian Art Theatre and the Montreal Repertory Theatre. 🧵 2/9

John Colicos was the first man to portray a Klingon on Star Trek. He was a veteran of the Stratford Festival. He acted in The National Dream, voiced Apocalypse on X-Men: The Animated Series and much more. This is his story. 🧵 1/9

On this day in 1931, Ed Whitlock was born. He began running in his 40s and at the age of 69, became the oldest person to run a marathon in under three hours. When he was 85, he ran the Toronto Waterfront Marathon in less than four hours (3:56:38). He died in 2017 in Toronto.

The economic growth agenda isn’t made for everyone. Most Canadians don’t think that economic growth under PM Carney’s plans will change their household’s financial situation. Read the full report from the Broadbent Institute & @fesonline.bsky.social broadbentinstitute.ca/research/defending-jobs/

Premier Doug Ford is ending Ontario’s tuition freeze and cutting OSAP grants. Noah Morris (NJM Strategies, Munk School) tells @jeyantvo.bsky.social this funding structure is a return to the days of Mike Harris. At 8pm with Daniel Corral (@oiseuoft.bsky.social) | Producer: Constantina Varlokostas

Ford went on to say, "...and the CN Tower could easily be turned into a a really cool rocket ship!"

These investments will help create thousands of high-paying careers for Canadian workers and unlock important new opportunities for our businesses.

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party. This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.

2 years from now, 5 years from now, 10 years from now, and 20 years from now, Americans are going to be subject to attacks here and all over the world because of what Trump is doing right now.
