Trump is pardoning a coke kingpin while regularly murdering low level mules in speedboats. It’s amazing to me that all the holier-than-thou Christians in the GOP will accept absolutely anything from him.

Juan Orlando Hernandez was convicted by a jury of conspiring to traffic 400 tons of cocaine into the United States. The Justice Department estimated that this represents 4.5 billion doses of cocaine and that he was “at the center of one of the largest and most violent…

The global standard for approving and building a pipeline is about 8 years. It's fastest in Saudi Arabia 3-5 years. In the U.S. it takes about 7-12 years. Sure, Poilievre promised to approve and build a pipeline in 6 months. LOL.

Yeah, he said 6 months. He was pretty clear about that.

This would be a war crime even if there were an actual war and these people were actual combatants, which there isn't and they weren't. It's unquestionably an unlawful homicide under any form of law you wish to apply: military or civilian, domestic or international, federal or…

He should go to prison for that.

Exclusive: Hegseth ordered everyone killed in the first alleged drug boat strike on Sept. 2, prompting a second hit to finish off survivors in the water in a mission led by SEAL Team 6. Ordering no quarter could legally perilous.

Canada’s economic growth beat expectations this quarter. We’re diversifying our trade, building big, and creating well-paying careers — and we’re getting results.

Apparently Smith and Carney signed the agreement in their pajamas (in case you don't recognize them, the caption says Smith is on the left) 🤣

Thank you, online (Globe2Go) version of @globeandmail today for this pic beside Campbell's (excellent) column. Started my day with a laugh. :)

Canada's economy bounced back in the third quarter of 2025, posting 2.6% growth year-on-year after contracting in the second quarter, helped in part by stronger trade numbers, official figures showed today. rte.ie/b/1546367

NEW: Data released today shows the Canadian economy returning to normal growth after the massive trade-war hit in Q2, with GDP growing 2.6% annualized in the third quarter Consumption dropped & investment/government activity were flat though—the entire rebound was in net exports

The Premier of Alberta @ABDanielleSmith is someone who's fought harder for Alberta and its energy ambitions more than anyone else in recent memory. She calls the MoU a "massive win for Alberta and Canada." @PierrePoilievre says it's a "pipe dream." Is he therefore implying…

We need a pipeline. Carney delivered another pipe dream.

I’m shocked by the fact that I quite like the MOU deal with Alberta - it is good on both policy and political grounds, and it is an acknowledgement of reality in this country of the kind we haven’t had a government willing to do in decades It’s a good deal. Genuinely —>

“This MOU is firmly in the national interest, it’s firmly right for Carney to implement, and I’m not particularly convinced there’s any argument against it. The deal isn’t perfect, but we don’t live in an ideal world. Well done, Carney.”

Premier @ABDanielleSmith and I have agreed to a framework built on shared ambitions — to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, unlock the full potential of Alberta’s energy resources, and build a stronger, more sustainable, more competitive economy.    Here’s what we want to…

more like the US may have agreed to a peace deal from Ukraine, Europe and its allies - note, not the Trump plan.

I expected they would get to a peace in the coming weeks. This was unexpected. American official says Ukraine has agreed to a peace deal.
