This is happening a lot to female journalists. So here is a modest proposal for the White House press corps: Stand together. No one should ask another question until the President answers the question that was ignored.

Hitler framed every annexation as “security”: Austria & the Sudetenland to make borders safe, Czechoslovakia as strategic defense, Poland to remove threats. Each seizure was sold as protection & stability. Europe sees what is coming. We need the GOP to see it too, or a lot of people are going to die

The reports of violence, arbitrary arrests, and intimidation tactics by the Iranian regime against its own people are profoundly concerning. Canada strongly condemns the killing of protesters, and urges Iran to allow for freedom of expression and peaceful assembly without fear of reprisal.

An astute analysis of Canada's relationship with the USA.
New from me: Trump's invasion of Venezuela and threats against Greenland are forcing a reckoning for the international community. For Canada, it forces us to ask the question: Are Mark Carney's "Canada Strong" policies actually up to the task of protecting Canadian independence?
Canada’s economic Maginot Line
The US invasion of Venezuela and threats against Greenland are forcing world leaders to get real about the US threat to the international order. Here in Canada, it's highlighting how Mark Carney's Canada Strong policies aren't up to the task of protecting Canadian sovereignty.
