Life can be ambiguous, and so can I. It's one of my more endearing traits. Especially when you consider that I am, a sardonic contrarian. Meditation brings peace. Rude comments/accounts deleted/blocked. No unsolicited DMs.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

No we ain't going anywhere. But if they need some players to help get them back on their feet after tackling Team Canada we might be willing to help. Maybe.

Words have always mattered to the truly educated.

Canada represents everything the United States will never be, and the United States represents everything Canada will never become.

You tell'em, Charlie!

People keep bemoaning the lack of leaders in the liberal democratic world - and I echo them. But we overlook Zelenskyy, who is as admirable a symbol of courage, resolve, clarity and righteousness as you will find.

Hello #Ontario Wake up!! This is NOT Politics as usual! Get. Out. And #VoteFordOut

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Now, that's how it's done!

It is happening, yay!! Minister Anita Anand informed the provinces Friday that Ottawa will remove more than half of federal internal trade barriers in a move to make Canada less reliant on the US, according to a senior federal government source. #Canada #cdnpoli 🍁 www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

We aren’t all farmers…

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center say results of a Phase I trial of an mRNA vaccine aimed at preventing pancreatic cancer show promise. The vaccine PREVENTED the cancer from coming back in patients who had already received treatment for MORE THAN three years. 🧪🧵⬇️

Here in Illinois, ten years ago we saw the consequences of a rampant ideological gutting of government. It genuinely harmed people. Our citizens hated it. Trust me – I was elected based in part on just how much they hated it.

Team Canada wins in overtime, and l’ve never been delighted with a hockey win before, ever.

Jimmy Darts. Helping people

THAT is undoubtedly true. The KGB/FSB always had an eye out for the 'useful idiots' of the world. Is that why most of his wives were eastern European?

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Canada wins…

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

Travel agencies say some Canadians are boycotting U.S. travel #Canada #Boycott With looming U.S. tariffs, the surge of Canadian patriotism has extended to people’s travel choices www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Now, you can't argue with that!

EXCLUSIVE: A federal worker at the EPA sent an incredible email to Administrator Lee Zeldin. He's refused to stay silent, and has asked me to share the email - and his name - with the public. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

Farmers overwhelmingly backed Trump—now they’re feeling the pain and speaking up. Here’s the thing: If you got grants and contracts under Biden, why vote for Trump—who did nothing for you? It’s easier to be angry than well-informed. Harris voters chose their self-interest.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

I stopped by Perfect Books in Ottawa to sign a new batch of Dangerous Memory. The book is a road map through these dangerous times.
