My best gifts to myself usually involve the joy of reading. This year the theme was an extra appreciation for science & unshakable truth-telling in the face of big lies. Thanks to authors like @michaelemann.bsky.social @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social @brittlestar.com @caulfieldtim.bsky.social etc.

People quit Cabinet for a whole host of reasons.

Some people who quit Cabinet go on to launch leadership bids once the dust settles.

I am honoured to announce I’ve been appointed as a member to the Order of Canada. Thank you to everyone for the support! I dedicate this to my late Mom who taught me so much about history, local independent media & research. I know that she would be, like me, screaming with joy! #orderofcanada

Based on our partyloyalty.ca research, moves like this are very rare.

When they occur, they're usually:
1️⃣ leadership-related (not policy)
2️⃣ based on a projection of future events (not past ones)
3️⃣ a harbinger of things to come (more defections)

Oh good lord. Such referendums will fail because the majority in each province knows they are better in Canada than on their own. That holds in good economic times and bad.

She has the microphone.
She has immunity.

If her concern were really about the victims, names in The Epstein Files would be said out loud — on the House floor.

Silence isn’t caution.

It’s a choice.

Trumpers have a howling void of angry insecurity where a soul should be. Unchecked power tastes like ashes in their mouth because they thought when they got it everyone would be forced to like and admire them even though they’re irredeemable assholes. But people still treat them like assholes.

This is not hard. Artists are not responsible for ensuring the Kennedy Center remains relevant and successful. The center’s board is responsible for that, in a fiduciary way. All of this energy being directed at artists should be re-directed at the board.

BREAKING: The FBI just uncovered a $1.7 BILLION healthcare fraud perpetrated by immigrants.

I'm kidding. That fraud was committed by Rick Scott's Columbia/HCA. MAGA just doesn't care because he's a white American.

2025 comes to an end.

It’s been a strong year for deployment and innovation, but a worrying one for energy politics.

Moves like the US pause on offshore wind show how quickly progress can be undermined by polarised debate.

Here’s hoping 2026 brings calmer, more evidence-based energy policymaking.

Elon Musk appointed 19-year-old Edward “Big Balls” Coristine, the grandson of a KGB lieutenant colonel to DOGE. He was instrumental in cutting funding for the United States Agency for International Development, which directly resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of poor people overseas.

The 'kin' of ‘napkin’ means "little."

‘Nap’ comes from ‘nape,' which means “tablecloth.”

So a napkin is a little tablecloth.

Congress should not let up on contempt for Bondi.

They must bring her b4 committee, under oath.

Except this time when she starts with her CRAP, they must be prepared to have the Sgt. At Arms, put her in cuffs.

Period.
