Canadian by choice. Retired journalist. Permanently enraged anti-Trumper.
Just read an essay by Andrew Day in something called The American Conservative and now I feel I need fumigation. It’s a fascist polemic on why the ICE murders don’t matter because morality is an obstacle to overcome. I’m no moralist, so I could quite cheerfully take a baseball bat to his head.

Help! I have accidentally signed up for something call The Epoch Times and now find myself in a rats’ nest of raddled Canadian fascists! I thought it was a genuine news site until I discovered Conrad Black is a regular contributor. I hadn't realized Canada had so many deeply unpleasant nutjobs!

Paywalls will be the death of bluesky! I understand the need for the media to moneterise their work, but now just about everything demands a subscription to read a single story from a news source you will likely never read again. It's incredibly frustrating.

Paywalls will be the death of bluesky. As a retired journalist, I understand the need to monetarize journalism but I fail to see why I should pay for a full subscription to read a one-off story from newspaper I will probably never read again.

The US has one icebreaker.
Europe have over a dozen.
The us has about 20,000 Arctic trained soldiers.
Europe has 10x that.

Rubio on the Venezuelan debacle: “What we are running is the direction that this is going to move, moving forward.” He’s quite obviously been taking lessons in gibberish from his brain-dead boss. What a complete and utter basket of idiot morons. Or moronic idiots …

President Trump is a fragile man.
So showing this photo might add to his aggravation.

Anyone else catch Trumps announcement after his meeting with Zelenskyy? It is pure, unadulterated insanity, 10,800 words of insane babble until he eventually tells Ukraine to give Putin when he wants because you lost the war. Zelenskyy stands at the rostrum, the rage written all over his face.

Great portrait of Obama. Trump could never hold a candle to him in terms of skill, brain-power, accomplishments, ethics, knowledge of the law, real recognitions, etc. What a waste having the two of them in the same paragraph.

If you ever wondered why medicine is so expensive in the US, consider this: American pharmaceutical companies spend NINETEEN times more on advertising than they do on research. If they put that money into research or didn't spend billions to get people to buy their potions, prices would plummet.

When South Africa’s PW Botha died an Irish newspaper ran a one-line obituary: “He was a rotten bastard, may he rot in hell.” Could come in useful, sooner, rather than later.

Could someone explain to me why the oil tanker the US military heroically boarded against all the odds was “Sanctioned”. Purple Hearts all round, chaps!

Depressing piece of fancy-pant Trump whitewashing by Nate Cohn in the NYT. Cohn treats this dangerous moron and his cabinet of malicious incompetents merely as a president enduring the usual ups and downs of politics. “Mr. Trump's extraordinary reliance on executive power…” You are fucking kidding!

Trump "orders the closure of Venezuelan airspace”! Who the fuck does he think he is? What's he going to do? Have navy jets shoot down commercial airlines? When will America and the rest of the world wake up to this lunatic?

Watched the news tonight, Canadian and US, and there was no media reaction to Trump calling a female reporter “stupid” for asking a perfectly legitimate question. None. Why do the White House press corps sit simpering when one of their number is insulted? It is little wonder the US is so fucked.

So Trump has put $80million (that we know off) into bonds that he can effect as president! You really are Third World, America.
