X is a hotbed for antisemitism.

New CCDH research used AI-powered tools to analyze over 679K posts containing antisemitism.

The results were shocking.

In space, Venus flanks Earth on the left, with a hellfire greenhouse effect. Mars on the right, which long ago had running water. Today, it's bone dry. Something bad happened on each planet.

Seems like the wrong time to limit the Nation’s capacity to conduct climate research.

Congratulations to our Canadian brothers and sisters on Mark Carney’s win as your next Prime Minister.

Liberals were headed for a landslide win after Trump’s threats to annex Canada as a 51st state.

Let's do this here in 2026, America, and retake the House and Senate!

Well done, Canada!

Whatever happens in Carleton, Bruce Fanjoy showed us what to do to break through a Con riding. I hope he wins but even if he doesn't, future candidates need to study his strategy for being so successful. He had a really tough job against a candidate with a much larger budget and constant visibility.

Carney wins Canada's election, riding Canadian fury at Trump to victory.

Carney's win represented a repudiation of Trump's threats to annex Canada and make it the "51st state." That rhetoric – along with punishing tariffs on Canadian goods – sparked an unprecedented wave of Canadian nationalism.

Canada, you are AWESOME! And with Prime Minister Carney at the helm we are unconquerable.
