Computers used to scream every time they connected to the Internet. They knew. They tried to warn us. We did not listen.

The United States is a nation beyond the rule of law. People are being kidnapped on the streets by men in masks. They are being disappeared and deported to foreign concentration camps. A Canadian died in their hands. We must demand full access and independent investigation of his mistreatment.

New from me: at the G7, everything revolved around Trump the way a funeral revolves around a screaming toddler – it isn’t how anyone wants to spend their time or energy, because there are much heavier things going on, but the noise demands to be accommodated. www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/opi...

In the spring of 2008, I feared America was on the verge of war with Iran — and, believing that it’s good style to get to know people before you bomb them, I made “Rick Steves’ Iran,” a one-hour special that could (and would) only debut on PBS. Sadly, this special has become pertinent again today.

All I know for sure is thank gawd the world won't be subjected to Kamala's quirky laugh for the next four years. We really dodged a bullet there.

This is true. There was a great amount of joy and sharing of helpful information when I first joined Bluesky. Now I see too much of the same “us vs them” posts. The algorithms don’t work in favour of mental health. Instead, they work in favour of increased clicks. Time to unfollow some accounts.

Wow. What a bombshell. Watch this new video of Peterson with Rogan aligning himself and Poilievre with Trump and their side, and how powerful of an enemy Carney is to them. This should be used as a Liberal ad ASAP. If you ever had any doubt what side Poilievre is on, let it be crystal clear now.

Zelenskyy: "According to preliminary data, we are talking about dozens of dead and wounded civilians. Only a scoundrel can act like this. Taking the lives of ordinary people. My condolences to the relatives and friends. A rescue operation is underway now. All necessary services are working."

Sumy 💔 24 people killed, including one child. 84 people injured, including seven children. The Russian missile was a cluster one to maximize the damage. The most victims were in the trolleybus.

The people were angry: It took a wheelbarrow of German marks to buy a dozen eggs. Disillusioned nationalists rallied behind a charismatic wannabe dictator who claimed only he could save them. Stream my hour-long special “Rick Steves’ The Story of Fascism in Europe” at www.ricksteves.com/fascism.

Wow, their loss. Rescinding the offer to speak for Nova Scotia's Tareq Hadhad, of Peace by Chocolate fame. He is an incredible speaker, and such a strong advocate for peace and reducing divisions. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
