JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election.

As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

Those who commit the crimes may be powerful but they don’t get to decide whether or not they are guilty.
I offer this history lesson on why Canada must stand up against murder on the high seas today.

@edmontonpolice.bsky.social shame on you for recklessly pushing ahead with this Axon AI identification pilot in #YEG. So many legal issues here, but I really wonder how you justify Axon's alert that led to a HS student getting frisked at gunpoint over a bag of Doritos? abc7.com/post/student...
Student handcuffed after Doritos bag mistaken for a gun by school's AI security system
Armed police handcuffed and searched a student at a high school after an AI-driven security system flagged the teen's empty bag of chips.

Rand Paul just posted this letter from the Coast Guard confirming that 1/4 of the boats they stop carry no contraband. The likelihood that Hegseth & Bradley ordered the murder of innocent civilians is very high.

Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

Garry Kasparov at Halifax Security Forum:

"For 4 years, Ukraine has been fighting for the whole of Europe. NATO was created to fight one war — not to go to Afghanistan, not to go to Syria — one war: to save free Europe from Russian aggression.

If all the servicemen and women who returned from WWII could see us today, what would they tell us?

I think they would see us dishonoring their sacrifices. We have definitely forgotten. How might we move forward from here?

I have a dream that one day MSM will do a story on Stephen Harper's International Democracy Union and how they've helped some of the worst anti-democratic parties get elected throughout the western world

It doesn't have to be Canadian media, it could be any large outlet

This one's for the governance folks who love thought experiments and hate nonsense. 😉

Really surprised by some of the inane comments coming from governance "experts" about AI in boardrooms. Like, "is it time to get an AI Director" on the Board?! 🤦

He has a point. I can't remember a SecDef inviting a reporter to their classified Signal chat either.
KARL: Why is the Defense Secretary afraid to interact with journalists who cover him?

JOHNSON: I reject the premise

KARL: The guy has only had 2 briefings and he basically forced the press out

JOHNSON: I can't remember a Secretary of Defense who has been so transparent and out in the open
