MUSK LOSES BIG IN GERMANY Germany’s CDU/CSU wins big, while the far-right AfD underperforms in second—despite backing from Elon Musk and JD Vance. AfD is now likely to be completely shut out of the governing coalition.

Since Jan 6 our world has turned upside down. Canada is under threat like never before. There are still 8 months left in this parliament. We can put aside our fights and come together for Canada. These are my thoughts on how normal politics is no more. charlieangus.substack.com/p/no-return-...

There's more than a little daylight between what the White House issued to U.S. reporters and what journalists in Canada received from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's office about the call. www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/read...

Canadian medias, you are expected to do better. Especially if you are funded by the public. We’ve seen what has happened because of the abdication of the US main medias. Don’t fall for rhetoric. Inform better. Do better. 🍁🇨🇦

CBC trying to explain how a "conversation" about whether Canada has a right to exist as a nation will be good because they have asked an American DJ to co-host. Like asking Ukraine to join a "conversation" with Russia about their borders. But don't worry it will be done with "care."

A remarkable change is developing in Canadian politics. With Carney in charge, Liberals move close to once-dominant Conservatives in voter preference, Ian Pattison writes. www.chroniclejournal.com/opinion/a-re... Find out more at nationalnewswatch.com

Donald Trump says Canada has no right to exist. I take the threat seriously. With our sovereignty on the table I support a national discussion on next steps. But CBC thinks it would be fun to have an American DJ co-host whether we should exist as a nation. Fuck that @ianhanomansing.bsky.social

Hey CBC, don’t do this. It’s not a “proposal.” Having different wording on your website won’t diminish the harm done by having Canada’s national broadcaster treat this as a serious conversation (see below for how it’s being portrayed on the relatively sane CPAC…). Pull out of this disaster now.

This guy wants the AfD to win in Germany. He wants Pierre Poilievre and the CPC to win in Canada. I don’t know about you, but given the devastation and fascism he’s doing everything he can to create in the United States and beyond, I wouldn’t vote for someone this guy likes in a million years.
