@ianhanomansing.bsky.social Ian, love your work on The National in Berlin (and at the moment Bangkok) but you should know that the name of the Chancellor-designate of Germany is pronounced MEHRTS, hard German Z like in schizophrenia — TS sound like in pits. And the vowel rhymes with AIR.

Trump’s action today is a sick betrayal of the rule of law and adds grievous insult to injury to law enforcement officers. These men and women fought to uphold the rule of law, only to see it mocked by a man who swore just a few hours ago, to God and country, to defend it.

“food price inflation is a worldwide phenomenon that has several, diverse causes. Therefore, attributing food price hikes to a single exogenous source without accounting for other factors may only provide a limited understanding of the issue.” #cdnpoli

The truth is coming out on the carbon tax
The truth is no match for an honestly told lie. Witness the disconnect between what we know about the carbon tax in Canada and the way it’s perceived by large swathes of the public.

Still to come: Trump’s “Reichstag Fire” moment when some terrorist attack takes place, Trump invokes a state of emergency, then suspends Congress and declares himself President for Life. It’s a familiar playbook. It worked in Germany in 1933.
