An entire country on the verge of puking.

If it’s helpful, Stephen Harper’s spokesperson categorically denied that the “Harper & Associates” in the files is the former prime minister’s company to me on Tuesday morning.

The Supreme Court:

(Bloomberg) -- The US Supreme Court struck down President Donald Trump’s sweeping global tariffs, undercutting his signature economic policy and delivering his biggest legal defeat since he returned to the White House.

For too long has curling been leashed.

You don’t “open” the Overton Window. But it’s interesting that they’d admit they’re trying to shift it toward white nationalism.

Just think, this will never happen again if China bans our ice hockey.

"A 2-month-old baby detained at Dilley’s South Texas Family Residential Center."

It’s impossible to overstate how much the movie version of 300 broke men’s brains.

another guy who never protested before radicalized to the point of tears by watching masked ICE agents terrify children in his neighborhood the Republicans are not ready or mentally capable of comprehending the backlash they have generated

I don’t know if there’s a connection to Valentine’s Day but it’s just the weirdest dudes at the gym tonight (yes I am also at the gym).

Could Canada’s major political parties all agree on anything worse than this? #Opinion

As if this generation thinks they invented narcissistic, status-driven young men. Why back in my day we just called them “dickheads.”

where are the "free speech" warriors now www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/t...

This is 18-mo-old Amalia waving to me when she was detained. She was hospitalized with a respiratory infection while at ICE’s Dilley facility for immigrant families. She’s one of dozens of detainees who I spoke to via video and phone calls, letters and an in-person visit. 🧵1/

Bad Bunny’s performance began in the plantation, featured broken electric poles, and ended by centering a hemispheric understanding of “América”—among many other things—and some Anglo journalists are like “his performance wasn’t political.” This is why we need to be telling our stories.

America is healing by getting an early bedtime tonight, you love to see it.

Yo did he say Canada!? - Every Canadian right now

No Kings includes Draft Kings

Somehow my grandmother, who is the best, understood Bad Bunny to be "a friend of Trump's" and was going to boycott the halftime show, and was very relieved we had our weekly phone call so I could fact check that for her.

I'd like to go back in time to show it to everyone who told me my newspaper job was a safer bet than pursuing a masters. (Also Dan hired me for that job, THANKS DAN.)

“in theater” is a crazy way to describe minneapolis

After all the slander directed at Palestinian doctors…

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable. Biden himself said they were fabricated! www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...
