NOTHING Matt Wolf does/did would surprise me. I was glad to see the back of that man's neck when he left. And - let's face it - THAT kind of person never really 'leaves'. He'll be around somewhere stirring things up & looking for cracks he can advantage for himself.

Unfortunately, it's not going to happen. Trump is mentally unstable and surrounded by sycophants. Other countries really need to step up and call US ambassadors on the carpet, deny visas, the whole deal. We need to be ostracized.

I wish countries were more open about that. If you look at the law firms and universities and companies that have told him to go pound sand, he has backed down. His administration is full of bad actors, so any agreement or understanding is short lived anyway, there's no reason to placate him.

I'm old-fashioned. I want your business to have a website. Don't gimme an Instagram page and a phone number. I wanna see what services you offer and then make an appointment on a regular degular website!

The triumph of democracy is not that you can elect an angel, it is that you can kick out an SOB. Because, if you can kick out an SOB, the next one knows you can kick him out too.

Yup, still applies. bsky.app/profile/matt...

He grew up in a place where the night sky felt endless. On a small farm in Ontario, far from launchpads and mission control rooms, Jeremy Hansen spent his early years looking up at something he could not yet reach.

This is exciting! They may have found a cure for ovarian & uterine cancers 🤞🤞 www.theguardian.com/business/202...

I am proud to be Hungarian. We were able to bring down a massive, seemingly invincible authoritarian regime. Honestly? I can hardly believe it. Thanks to everyone who helped us do this in Europe and elsewhere 🙏🏻

I did appreciate the Russian doll with Orbán on the outside and Putin inside at the Tisza party 😀

Sometimes you just hold your nose and vote against an enemy that SEEMS undefeatable. And then you win. And THEN you can discuss the pragmatism of what/how you need to work together to enable best lives for your citizens. Congratulations, Hungary!

vtr.valasztas.hu/ogy2026 Almost there! +98% of the polls reporting. And thanks to ‪Patrixmyth‬ ‪@patri.xyz (amongst others) for so often having my back!

Everyone please welcome CBS News Immigration Analyst Viktor Orban.

I’ve been trying to figure out why I’ve been obsessed with the Artemis II mission — more obsessed than I usually am with NASA stuff. This explains it! (IG: morganevelyncook)

Regret to inform everyone that Peter Magyar beat the world’s smartest illiberal populist in large measure by working incredibly hard for 2 straight years, meaning the rest of us are just going to have to get off our asses and do shit rather than just complaining.

Sometimes I think about this tweet.

The veils of fog are clearing. I read portions of posts from ‪Don Moynihan‬'s posts today. @donmoyn.bsky.social‬ well worth visiting this evening for some longer reads. This hit with full force for me. U.S. Project 2025 anyone?

Damn straight! Dems & Biden made huge mistake waiting as long as they did to move on Trump. I 'get' that Trump had stolen and was in control of files that could have been beneficial. But man, shldn't have taken four yrs to bring Perpetual Petulant to court.

The EU is sitting on €6.4 *billion* in grants for Hungary With a likely constitutional majority enabling Magyar to govern with a freehand, I suspect that money will flow quickly Ukraine's €90bn loan will also be approved Hungary will now move into the European mainstream

If Orban loses, curious how much the Hungarian gravy train for right-wing academics and think-tankers will dry up. This was the means by which Orban helped to build his stature in the West. He tried to insulate these institutions from election losses. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/make-ameri...

one immediate dramatic consequence of the Hungarian result: Magyar has promised to repair relations with the EU and unblock a €90bn EU loan for Ukraine

I can't quite express the joy of seeing Viktor Orbán, the man who took my grandparents' native land to the brink of dictatorship, concede power after 16 years of autocracy and corruption. This is personal.

Omg

It's worth noting that she told me the best decades of her life were her 50s and 80s.

I'm trying to spend more time in my community. After work, I visited my neighbor who's turning 91 next week and who lives alone. She worked for Pan Am and lived through the bombing of Pearl Harbor. She’s got great stories about life in Hawaiʻi.

The Strait of Hormuz crisis is doing something a decade of subsidies and mandates struggled to achieve: making millions of people want an EV who previously discounted them. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

JD Vance, are you free in October

I've been trying really hard to include Alt Text and likely running 99%, but this one is just beyond today's time/ability. Bluesky, I'm sorry!

Important to get that super majority so the new government can get into the constitution and repair changes that the Orban regime made. I take great heart from the Hungarian electorate. Thank you from Alberta, Canada!

I spent 16, SIXTEEN years fighting this crap. I can’t believe it 😭

Hungary has chosen Europe. Europe has always chosen Hungary. A country reclaims its European path. The Union grows stronger.

It's not just that Orbán losing inspires hope in other competitive-autocratic countries ruled by right-wing nationalist authoritarians. It's that his loss materially changes things in those other countries, because he's been operating as a headquarters and funding source...

WHY wld Cdn gov allow heavily racist ppl who are used to being able to throw their weight around, into Cda? It's like shrugging "Sure, racists, come on in. Act all snarly & pumped up on American Imperialism wearing your 'official uniforms' so law compliant Cdns take you for Cdn officials."

Up to date info of numbers as Hungarian electoral results are being announced. Thanks Tarksufella.

you know it'd be really nice if the media started reporting on the fact that the president is genuinely out of his goddamn mind and is holding the world in a hostage situation about it

Nearly a third of the votes in Hungary have been counted and Tisza on track for 66.3% of the seats in parliament

I'm so grateful to have @senatorpaulasimons.bsky.social as an ABn senator. She uploads a regular podcast. Yes, they can be an hour long. But she talks to smart people. Here's a grp of 5 talking about Smith's upcoming referendum: podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/j...

Here goes something: Attempting a general block of msn.com search results on my Firefox browser and DuckDuckGo search engine. Fingers crossed.

Well, I finally agree with something Orban has said: Reminds me once again of the Oracle of Delphi:

WHO'S FOUND A RELIABLE FEED TO CHECK LINEUP LENGTHS SHORTENING AS HUNGARIANS CONTINUE TO VOTE AFTER POLLS CLOSE? ANYONE?

Very true...

ABn here who doesn't support UCP/Smith's MAGA policies. I'm glad to see these items get majority support fr grass root LPC. But Cdns KNOW that party ldrships don't follow grass root policies. It's time for Carney/Feds to push back FAST AND HARD on Cdn MAGA Premiers.

AB will face equivalent lies & disinformation as 2026 unfolds. Smith, UCP, Separatists will take $500billion MAGA LOAN +%interest to become Trump's 51st state. Business giants left Britain & Brit economy shrank. NOT 'independent' NOT 'sovereign' Played for fools b/c they thought they cld go it alone

France 🇫🇷 doubles electrification support to €10bn/year through 2030 — EVs, heat pumps, industry. The reason? The Strait of Hormuz crisis making fossil fuel dependence impossible to ignore. Geopolitical shocks don’t just raise prices. They change what’s politically possible.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

"When a long-awaited rail link opens between northern Finland and Sweden, it will be possible to travel some 5,000km by train from Portugal's Algarve to Kolari in Lapland – Finland's northernmost station." #Trains #ClimateAction 🛤️ yle.fi/a/74-20220038

Those who luv Canada in AB will need to prepare ourselves to face lineups like this come autumn 2026 as the UCP, Smith and the Separatists try to break AB away from Canada. Canada is worth time spent in line to break Trump's U.S. Imperialism and their long held plans of 'Manifest Destiny'.

'Soft Cabinets'. Not my bag.
