Trump poses as the Pope in full holy garments and gets a pass. Obama puts on a tan suit and they lose their frigging minds. See how that works?

Why China has the upper hand in its trade war with America: America accounts for much less than a fifth of global trade. China, on the other hand, is the biggest trading partner for over a hundred countries and it hopes to pick up some of the international goodwill destroyed by Trump. #TrumpTariffs

People (especially in the US) always act like Putin is a mastermind and not a raving lunatic. Anyone who can understand what he’s saying when he speaks, knows the guy is mentally cooked. He’ll blither about the 13th century for hours and people will sit there and nod. Think Trump but literate.

Nothing important here. Just a publicly-traded company disclosing to investors that it’s attempting to bribe the President of the United States by buying his cryptocurrency in order to influence his trade policy.

One would think that a Conservative leader who lost the federal election and the seat he held for 21 years would resign, but no, he is running in a byelection in a riding so right-wing that people would elect a mouse if it were Conservative.

The Republicans aren’t listening to anybody but Trump. They know how detrimental these cuts will be to their constituents but instead of developing a backbone, standing up to Trump, & doing what’s right—they’re too scared, too spineless, & too sold out to fight for the folks they represent.

Congratulations Australia! The people have crushed the fascists. The Labor party’s PM Anthony Albanese has secured a second term in office in an election wipeout. The push back against the Trump / Putin aligned global regressive movement continues strong.

With Jenni Byrne and her sidekick piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre, it’s all politics all the time. With Prime Minister Mark Carney, it’s going to be all about governing, with politics when necessary. Which, when you think about it, is the best kind of politics. 🍁🍁🍁

German intelligence classified the far-right AfD (Alternative für Deutschland) party as an extremist group. The Germans learned through bitter experience what fascism can do. The Americans under Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans have yet to learn that lesson.

So, Shachi Kurl has gulled @TheNewYorkTimes.com into thinking she and the Angus Reid Institute are “non-partisan”. Anyone who watched her sabotage an election debate as moderator or who’s read Mr. Reid’s tweets of late knows otherwise. 🤷🏼🤔🧐🙄🤷🏼 www.nytimes.com/2025/05/02/o...

Canada’s legacy news media wanted a rage-baiting petulant pipsqueak to become the next Prime Minister. Thankfully, most Canadians voted against that idea. Corporate news media is hopelessly biased.

The Trump administration is bending the arc of US history in a new direction, away from the civil rights focus of the past 60 plus years. Addressing racial injustice toward people of color is out. Separating church and state is out. Exposing ‘anti-Christian bias’ and being ‘anti-woke’ is in.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 86% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 31% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Cutting cancer research while wasting money on this? Shameful. Detailed Army plans for a potential military parade on President Donald Trump’s birthday in June call for more than 6,600 soldiers, at least 150 vehicles, 50 helicopters, seven bands and possibly a couple thousand civilians.
