With his ultimatum that Ukraine surrender to Russia, Trump finally wins a prize:

The Neville Chamberlain award for betraying peace, freedom, and justice.

Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"

STEWART: “Comedy doesn’t change the world, but it’s a bellwether— we’re the banana peel in the coal mine… authoritarians are the threat to comedy, music, art, thought… progress.”

Nailed it.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

What’s at stake here is free speech.

Across the board, we’ve seen the Trump administration use the power of government to go after anybody who’s criticized them — and in this case, Jimmy Kimmel.

We need to all stand up and speak out.

I put together a primer on Charlie Kirk — and paid some special attention to his relationship with Nick Fuentes and the Groyper movement.

There's no hot takes or sweeping declarations. Just some useful background. www.bugeyedandshameless.com/p/who-was-ch...

I’m finding myself torn between a “Try to find the humour in it all” and a “This looks like a good place to start digging my bomb shelter” mindset so I might try writing some satire while on my breaks from mixing cement.

On Juneteenth, we celebrate freedom and recommit ourselves to the work that remains undone. We remember that even in the darkest hours, there is cause to hope for tomorrow’s light.

Poilievre is somehow standing in a parliament building that he wasn’t elected to, calling out and casting aspersions on members of parliament who *were elected.* Dude. You lost your seat. These new ministers won their seats. Sit down (on the floor, as you have no seat).

Canadians elected a new government to stand up for Canada and build a strong economy.

As Prime Minister, I’ve heard that message loud and clear. Today, I’ve shared my plan to set out on a new path for Canada — and act with focus and determination.

Poilievre losing his seat is almost Shakespearean: Pretender to the throne riles countrymen with anger, gets defeated by guy with Joy in his name. It’s basically Macbeth.

@jenniferkeesmaat.bsky.social has worked her whole career to make housing more affordable.

She knows what it will take to end the housing crisis.

Glad to have her support.

It’s time to build.

Here's a zero-gravity parody song about this week's coverage of #BlueOrigin's rocket launch. Sorry we forgot to turn the clicker off but we were more worried about getting the pitch (nearly) right. It's called "Flight from Earth" based on the anthemic #Firework by #KatyPerry 🎇🎶
