Day 3: MLK's Letter from a Birmingham Jail. I could just mic drop here...King understood what many Americans don't: compliance isn’t neutral—it’s a choice that protects power & privilege. It ultimately leaves you worse off. Columbia & Harvard, take note.

Gessen is exactly right and always worth reading. Universities have been selling out their intellectual mission for years to the highest bidders and making themselves deeply vulnerable as a result.

Canada won’t back down to Donald Trump. These tariffs harm the world's most prosperous trading relationship and one of the great historic friendships between nations.

When it came to fighting for our country, previous generations of Canadians did not back down.

We won’t either.

Hard to understand why Poilievre is so dismissive of a #TeamCanada response to President Trump.
Anyone (Pierre Poilievre) that thinks a Team Canada approach is just a photo-op shouldn't be the leader of Team Canada. #cdnpoli #peipoli

Call me crazy, but I think Justin Sun, a Chinese national being prosecuted for fraud by the SEC, sending Trump $18 million should be a bigger story

The direct enrichment of Trump by a foreign national weeks before he takes office has merited no coverage in the NYT or Washington Post
A Chinese national, charged with fraud by the SEC, just sent Donald Trump $18 million
Chinese Crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun paid $6.2 million for a banana — sold by Sotheby's as conceptual art — and then ate it last Friday.
