The arbitrary detention of travellers and kidnapping of citizens by ICE is unacceptable. These are not the actions of a country that respects the rule of law.

A historian of early U.S.-#Canada relations notes that Trump isn’t the first leader to eye annexation—America’s ambitions date back before independence and often signal weakness, not strength. buff.ly/ccU4jnJ

America’s designs on annexing Canada have a long history − and record of political failures

“Basically, Netanyahu is the same person as Chavez in Venezuela, Bolsonaro in Brazil, Orban in Hungary. It’s a kind of disease that encompasses the world, this populist wave.”
Yair Golan: The IDF General Who Can Revive the Israeli Left
He calls Netanyahu a “criminal.” His new party is small now, but it’s the best hope Israeli progressives have had in a while.

NOAA is reportedly on the DOGE chopping block.
The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US.
A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans.
Again, this isn't about efficiency.
