Ukraine’s air defence intercepted 91.9% of incoming aerial threats overnight.
• Missiles: 79.4% shot down
• UAVs: 92.9% destroyed
While Russia fires everything it has and spends billions and billions on terrorizing Ukrainians, the country is still stopping most of it.
That matters. 🇺🇦

A source confirms to me that this disturbing letter from Trump to the Norwegian PM is real.
Not the sort of letter committed to paper by a well man. "Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace"

Wow. Canada's Scotiabank is really sticking its neck out here to applaud an illegal act of agression by the US.
This week, at a conference of Canadian bank CEOs, Scotiabank CEO Scott Thomson overtly endorsed the Trump regime's desire to control the Western Hemisphere.
“I'm frankly horrified by his comments,” said Stand.earth Climate Finance Director @richardbrooks.bsky.social.

More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland.
They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

💯 people of conscience have no excuse for funding X with their views and posts
Anyone with a decent-sized following on a social media platform is both a customer and a product for that platform’s owners. Regardless of whether the former Twitter is banned in Canada, I don’t know how federal ministers can in good conscience be either.

Danielle Smith's willingness to cater to Alberta separatists was always a dangerous game.
Now, in the wake of America's attack on Venezuela and its covetous advances on Greenland, she's effectively risking Canada's future in order to save her own. #cdnpoli

Alberta's premier loves to talk about standing up for her province. Will she ever show the same enthusiasm when it comes to Canada?

In 2024, I rose in Senate QP to ask why the Govt of Canada was still using X for official communications. Today, they are still there. What exactly will it take to break the spell?
A proliferation of sexual deepfakes on X has prompted other countries to investigate Grok, the platform’s AI software, but, so far, Ottawa remains silent.

This is a dangerous and irresponsible response.
Cheering the illegal abduction of a foreign head of state and celebrating U.S. control over another country is wrong.
Canada cannot pick & choose when international law applies. If the rules only matter when it’s convenient, they don’t protect anyone
