No, WaPo, it is not "the latest flash point in the simmering tensions between the US and its northern neighbor." It's the latest petty and preposterous attack on Canada by our erratic, unhinged president. Can you at least give your readers a hint of the truth? www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Thune says Senate Republicans are having a "robust" conversation about the SAVE Act, which he says he supports. "How we get to that vote remains to be seen." It doesn't have 60 votes. "There aren't anywhere close to the votes—not even close—to nuking the filibuster," he adds.
February 10, 2026 at 7:49 PM
How much of this is real, though. Thune obviously going to try to put publish pressure on dems to do a CR, but we don't know how much "progress" is actual progress.
Thune says "progress" is being made on DHS funding and he hopes Democrats "would be amenable" to another CR if they need additional time to reach a deal.

Sweden is one of the wildest teams in mixed doubles this tournament, being the only team to be shutout in a game (9-0 vs. Norway) only to score the most points in the entire tournament the next game (13-7 vs. Switzerland) in literally their next game

not only were these skaters not disqualified for using AI music, the people in charge of figure skating specifically condoned the use of AI-generated music in the rules

meanwhile they stopped another team from choosing a song released in late 1989 for their "Style of the 1990s" routine

Goldman to Lyons: "You said in your opening statement that references to ICE as 'the Gestapo' or 'secret police' encourages threats against ICE agents. The problem is you have it backwards. People are simply making valid observations about your tactics, which are un-American and outright fascist."
