The Nation That Trump Could Never Break Canada didn’t just resist, they reminded the rest of us how to endure

Message from Ukraine:
Thank you, Canada.
For being yourselves when so many others are trying to be worse.
You reminded us that we are not alone.
Because of you, this morning felt a little less like the end of the world.
And more like something worth staying alive for.

We are selling the tech that allow Russian and North Korean missiles to hit Kyiv. But Trump won’t give or even sell Zelens’kyi the defensive tech needed to stop them.

DOGE NORTH: Another Chapter in the Fascist Playbook It was called the Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service. This lofty-sounding legislation was the battering ram by which Hitler destroyed the independent civil service in Germany.

Project 2025 was the roadmap for DOGE and the destruction of a non-partisan civil service.
Conservative insiders are bragging that enacting DOGE NORTH would be even easier in Canada.
Trashing the public service is key for the fascist playbook.
Please read my latest.

Good morning to readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

Ganka fled the war to the U.S. to find safety.

But now the country that was her refuge may tell her to leave.

Trump may issue an order that could send 280,000 Ukrainians back to nightly explosions and shattered homes.

I’ve noticed this also. Thank you for pointing it out….it’s happening in US and Canadian media and not always fact-checked.

A must-read, which reveals the essence of Russian imperialism today— arrogant denial and genocidal ambition about Ukraine as Ukrainians define it, condescension and belief that more of Europe will be dominated by Ru, rejection of international order and political freedom…

Ozymandias

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!’
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

Trump Admin Nixed Contract Helping Kidnapped Ukrainian Kids: Sources The fate of abducted Ukrainian children is a white-hot issue for peace negotiations—and it looks like the State Department may have just undercut the cause.

The Trump admin has quietly terminated a State Department contract that was in the process of transferring evidence of alleged Russian abductions of Ukrainian children—a potential war crime—to law enforcement officials in Europe, two people familiar with the situation tell @newrepublic.com

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Не помиляйтеся: Україна веде боротьбу за демократію. Справедливий і міцний мир вимагає, щоб Україна була за столом переговорів, а її перемога уможливить більшу безпеку для усіх нас.

Україна має перемогти. Путін повинен програти.

Слава Україні.
