Covered bridge in St Martin’s NB, Canada🎄 #coveredbridge

Shocking depravity.

“What's happening to CBS is a terrible embarrassment and if execs think they can build shareholder value by avoiding journalism that might offend the Mad King they are about to learn a tough lesson. This is still America and we don’t enjoy bullshit like this.” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Rachel Maddow had a great opening to her show last night. She showed in Bulguria massive protests lead to it's government to resign. That's is what needs to happen here. Yes, we had 15 million people show up for the second No Kings. But, we need numbers like 100 million+. youtu.be/aqm07OUwbgY?...

My thoughts exactly when I listen to excuses from the voting citizens who enable fascist behaviour:

The pace at which the United States is self-immolating is astounding. Europe and Canada are not nearly as weak or naive as the weak AND naive Trump administration thinks.

CBS News pulled a segment on Trump administration deportations of Venezuelan immigrants to an El Salvador prison from "60 Minutes," causing staffers and media onlookers to question whether the decision was politically motivated.

Is this a stealthy sentient AI startup looking to power its fiendish plans for growth and domination?

A new investigation revealed that school districts and local governments are reportedly overpaying for supplies because of Amazon contracts that bind them to dynamic pricing. Rather than allow for competitive bidding, the deals “covertly raise prices and inflate costs for governments.”

Canada’s new government is investing big to attract world-class talent in science and technology — and become an innovation powerhouse.

Julie Inman Grant is a HERO! Canada should follow Australia in protecting our children from the deleterious effects of online activities.

This!

US and Russian officials participated in a coordinated attack on Europe which saw thousands of bots spread disinformation and terroristic rhetoric against the European Union.

Finland has emerged as a global leader in countering “fake news”. Here's how they've done it

Russia demands the EU dissolve while denying sovereignty to 21 republics and 190+ ethnic groups. Chechnya fought for freedom. Tatarstan was conquered. Crimean Tatars deported. The last empire lectures about unions while crushing nations within. Want to discuss abolition? Start with Russia.

Today, we remember the fourteen young women whose lives were stolen at Polytechnique Montréal 36 years ago. Their names are a solemn reminder of the devastating toll of gender-based violence — and the responsibility that comes with our remembrance.

Victoria Mboko had one of the most exciting tennis seasons in Canadian history — a WTA 1000 title and a surge into the top 20.    Victoria, your story is an inspiration, and the best chapters are yet to be written.

Remember: Trump or Russian propagandists might say otherwise, but Putin is not winning, and the Ukrainians are not losing.

I am told that internal Ukrainian army information shows that more than 26,000 Russian soldiers were killed or critically wounded in the month of November. Confirmed by videos. No wonder Putin wants to get Trump to give him territory for free

Wealth inequality is eating this country alive. Concentrated wealth is already endangering our democracy. Wealth doesn’t just beget more wealth — it begets more power. It’s a vicious cycle that destroys our economy and democracy at the same time.

It’s often the most vulnerable Canadians who don’t file their taxes and miss out on the benefits they need or have paid into. So we’re introducing Automatic Federal Benefits — pre-filing taxes for up to 5.5 million lower-income Canadians.

I hope they pass KOSA. Regulate these platforms.

Putin sounds like a wrestler interviewed before the big match with Max-the-Crusher

“Moscow viewed the latest US-Ukrainian talks as a dead end, claiming Kyiv was refusing to capitulate” ~ The Guardian

Trump just gave a commutation to David Gentile, a private equity executive who defrauded investors of $1.6B. Meanwhile, Trump's regime has also scrapped enforcement actions against over 160 corporations accused of misconduct. A new Golden Age for corporate criminals.

Canada’s new government is investing in new health infrastructure across the country — to help build hospitals, emergency rooms, and urgent care centres Canadians rely on.

Dear Russia - Get out of Ukraine and pay them sufficient reparations so that they may rebuild what you have destroyed. If you invade another country again, you will be penalized. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER ~ The World

80% of Americans say we should prioritize regulating AI, yet Trump could soon enact an executive order blocking all state AI regulations. Why? Look no further than the AI industry's massive lobbying war chest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imtkNL4v2ks

Ukraine has independent institutions actively investigating corruption, the system is functioning as it should. In stark contrast, those who ask uncomfortable questions about Putin’s circle tend to fall out of windows.

"True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.” —FDR, 1944

96% of the highest-paid workers in the US have paid sick days. Just 38% of the lowest-paid workers get them — including the thousands of retail workers working this holiday weekend. Only in America do we call working people ‘essential’ but deny them paid sick leave.

They aren't working on behalf of Americans, just for themselves www.nytimes.com/2025/11/30/t...

This WSJ piece is essential reading. It reveals what’s really driving Trump’s foreign policy: pure plutocracy. The plan? Divide our land, seize our resources, and transfer as much public wealth as possible into private hands. The peak of corruption, laid bare.

Russian Telegram channels report a fire at a storage warehouse where batteries are stored in Alabuga, Tatarstan, Russia (where Shahed drones are produced). The fire has spread to about 1,000 square meters. This information needs confirmation.

I think that somewhere along the way something in Stephen Miller got fundamentally damaged. This is neither an excuse nor a mitigating factor; the dude is genuinely fucking evil and he and everything he stands for should be fought against and stopped. But he is something beyond mere sociopathy.

"There are costs to performatively deploying members of the military—one of which is the risk of endangering them" From @juliettekayyem.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

You don't have to make a moral argument, a pragmatic argument will do

Per The Atlantic, An Indiana Republican isn’t running for re-election because “I’d rather my house not get firebombed” - because Trump is mad he opposed his seat-stealing redistricting plan there. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?
