Carlene Variyan: "I think that what you saw reflected in [Carney's] comments about not needing to be talking to Trump at this specific moment is actually a leader who is pragmatically dealing with the reality of going and having conversations with people who want to come to the table right now."

Carney said he is a pragmatic person. This means he is realistic, sensible, & focused on practical solutions rather than on theories or ideals. He makes decisions based on what is likely to be effective in a given situation & are guided by facts & circumstances to achieve a desired outcome.

Spending political energy to massively increase pipeline production in Canada is not nation-building. It is planet burning.

The media needs to stop calling it a peace plan. It's a Republican surrender plan for Europe. Why? Because Republicans have embraced fascist plutocracy and Europe isn't.

If this is correct, and Rubio’s comment seems to confirm it is, this is a degree of blundering incompetence that is not only extreme, but frightening. Lives and global order are on the line here, and Trump and his WH seem utterly lost.
Been driving for a couple hours. Just got online. Lemme see if I understand. US has been pushing a Ukraine plan for a few days. After some pushback, US Secy of State reveals that in fact it's a Russian plan that was presented to the US. Helluva a misunderstanding.

Rare night of enjoying wine. I got a Tempranillo. It’s great with beef.

Similar to Cabernet Sauvignon in body & profile, but for me in Canada, better value than a cab sauv.

Old world countries like Spain tend to age wine more than, say, California. But we’re not stocking any so, hullo, Spain!

IMO, the only oil pipeline we need in Canada is an all Canadian Line 5 replacement, and only then as a matter of national security.
