Iโ€™m working with Governor Gretchen Whitmer on trying to save The Great Lakes from the rather violent and destructive Asian Carp, which is rapidly taking over Lake Michigan, and all of the beautiful surrounds. Iโ€™ll be asking other Governors to join into this fight, including those of Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, New York and, of course, the future Governor of Canada, Mark Carney, who I know will be happy to contribute to this worthy cause. Separately, I am also working to save The Great Salt Lake, in Utah, which, in a short period of time, if nothing is done, will have no water. This is on top of everything else I am doing. Only โ€œTRUMPโ€ CAN DO IT! President DONALD J. TRUMP

I wonder what Americans would think if the world started to refer to Trump as โ€œThe future Head of the Russian Republic of USA?โ€

Probably about the same as we Canadians think of Trumpโ€™s childish stupidity below.

A picture of Kiefer Sutherland in a white shirt, with the cuffs rolled up and his arms crossed. To the left of him are the words he wrote to the Premier of Ontario, Doug Ford:
Mr. Ford, Your tweet has recently come to my attention and I can tell you that you are correct, my grandfather Tommy Douglas was fiscally responsible. In addition to balancing the budget of Saskatchewan, he also provided the province with paved roads, healthcare and electricity. He did it all within four years. Contrary to your argument, it was never at the expense of social and human services to those in need. I  personally find your comparison of your policies to his offensive. So I only ask, as the grandson of this man, for you to stop posting his picture and using his name as part of your political agenda. After all, I knew Tommy Douglas and you Sir, are no Tommy Douglas.
P.S. You're lucky my mum's not active on Twitter
Sincerely,
Kiefer Sutherland

What Kiefer has to say to Doug Ford also applies to Danielle Smith & the UCP and Scott Moe & the Saskatchewan Party.

How terrified those children mustโ€™ve been, hearing those missiles. The teachers, knowing they were defenceless but doing everything they could to protect their students. My god. ๐Ÿ˜”

Today I read that at LEAST 61% of the military still lean towards Trump and would vote for him again. SMFH.

SEVEN. Thatโ€™s how many strikes hit near the Iranian girlsโ€™ school.

Video shows a tomahawk missile hitting a building next to the school. The kind of โ€œprecisionโ€ you get when an incompetent administration runs a war on outdated intelligence.

Donโ€™t look away โ€”we should all see the deadly destruction

I didnโ€™t lose my ability to see beauty.
Moreover, the war taught me to see it everywhere.

Beauty is not a distraction.
It shows how amazing our planet is.
The one we should protect.

Jon Thurstonโ€™s extraordinary wheelchair curling shot yesterday has been viewed one million times on our @cbcsports Instagram

Iโ€™ve likely accounted four about 357 of those views. The shot heard round the world. All the talk here in Cortina and beyond.

I loved Twitter, despite its many imperfections.

Then Elon Musk fucked up Twitter beyond all recognition.

I will never, ever forgive him for that.

I now love Bluesky, despite its many imperfections.

With all due respect please donโ€™t fuck up Bluesky, or I will never, ever forgive you.

Thank you.
