"It'll be a cold day in Hell"
Scott Anderson, right-wing CPC MP for Vernon-Lake Country-Monashee, says in a post on social media that the Liberals are "pulling out all the stops" to lure Conservatives.

Since 85% of Greenlanders oppose American hegemony, that means democracy is off the table. So the US will take over Greenland, abolish the Inatsisartut, and change it from a democracy to what, an Unincorporated Territory, Compact of Free Association, or a Military Administration? F-that, Nazi! ✌️❤️🇬🇱

X/Grok continues its tradition of debasing people: praising Adolf Hitler and antisemitism, corporate influence and censorship, political misinformation and bias, and the generation of nonconsensual sexualized imagery (deepfakes) of real people.

Canada's "keep on postin'" politicians: 🤷‍♂️

Who is going to be the next President of Venezuela? Will it be Steve, Ainsley , Lawrence, or maybe even Brian? 🇻🇪👑

Pierre Poilievre's take: the means justify the ends.
Careful what you ask for Pierre, assuming you even still expect to be prime minister one day. #CdnPoli 🇨🇦

The fascists to the south are proud to be stormtroopin' through the Americas. Time for Canada to adopt The Porcupine Strategy.

🇨🇺 Cuba

He’s out of control. He’s deranged. This is the opposite of what he promised America when he ran for president. He said he’d focus on *us*.

😬 The Toronto Sun's Brian Lilly, he of much critical 'elbows down' Mark Carney, reports from location in California on "Will Poilievre be Canada's prime minister in 2026?"

Shoopy shoop shoop.
In all too many ways, 2025 was the darkest year of a dark decade. The return of Donald Trump, and the disintegration of the postwar world. Wars that stretched on for far too long...

Vatniks in the House
Devastating long-form exposé on Vance, Colby, the Fox News guy, and of course Witlesskoff (who may be just profoundly ignorant and naive). The depth of Hegseth's pro-russia mindset is downright terrifying; his actions are "literally killing them (Ukrainians)".

Lead Ottawa Insurrection Convoy clown Tom Marazzo links "psychopath" Mark Carney's latest support for Ukraine to Carney's (🙄) "theft" of the convoy's bankroll in 2022. He be some angry!

Kamloops CPC MP Frank Caputo sure is focussed on Poilievre-slayer @brucefanjoy.bsky.social rather than doing his job.

Dmitry Medvedev, the occasionally standing upright Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the russian federation, showcases their desire for a peaceful solution to russia's illegal war of aggression by threatening to hunt Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to the end of time.
December 30, 2025 at 1:16 AM
Trump's new National Security Strategy praises russia, attacks Europe's "civilisational erasure," and abandons democratic allies. But Europe isn't dying—we have vibrant democracies, low violence, strong healthcare, and educated populations. It's Trump's America risking suicide, not us.
-Carl Bildt 🇸🇪
Opinion: Donald Trump’s America is committing civilizational suicide
In wanting its own sphere of influence in the same vein as China and Russia, the U.S. is prizing power over principle
