The administration stayed home from Halifax and forced the US military to do so as well. This isn’t an aberration: Also over the weekend, the administration boycotted the G20 in S Africa. How does the Trump team expect to win any diplomatic victories when it’s not even on the field? wapo.st/4oZH3wz
Opinion | America has become a rogue nation. U.S. allies are looking elsewhere.
Europeans and Canadians are talking about making their own security arrangements.

A fitting tribute to a groundbreaking and much-loved chef
A lot of what Skye did - seasonal cooking, eliminating single use plastics, using 'waste' products - is so well integrated into the cooking mainstream that it is easy to forget how pioneering it was. My obituary tries to give some small sense of it on.ft.com/4ptDNJF

Ampelographers of social media: can this vine fruit be called “grapes”? And, if they can, then what might i have on my neighbour’s wall in Mid-town, Carolinian forest Toronto?

The Ontario ad is accurate. Heck it is Reagan’s own words. Reagan was a free trader. Very different from Trump. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/1...
Trump says he’s canceling trade negotiations with Canada over anti-tariff ad
President Donald Trump claimed Canada “fraudulently used” an advertisement that featured audio from a 1987 radio address by President Ronald Reagan criticizing tariffs.

As we resist Trump’s tyranny, America gains solidarity.

As we gain solidarity, we feel more courageous.

As we feel courageous and stand up to Trump, we weaken him and his regime.

As we weaken Trump and his regime, we have less to fear.

The Epstein birthday card is now public. (Trump can continue to pretend it's not real, but that's not the point.)

The point: If the card were the worst thing for Trump in the files, why wouldn't Trump now make the Epstein files public?

Conclusion: There are worse things for Trump in the files.
