Dual citizen, which is why I overshare. Experienced at both sides of the gurney. Maybe the first in my community to have heard about CoVID. Aviation worker. Maybe have recovered from long CoVID.
The only lovely interview that I've ever seen with my American ambassador to Canada, Pete Hoekstra. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

"I want to get in for a term to get rid of the guy, and then a term to create basically an American legal reconstruction, by passing laws to make sure that this kind of autocratic threat (doesn't happen again)."
Hungary’s parliament sings “Ode to Joy” — the anthem of Europe — after Péter Magyar is sworn in as prime minister. Hungary is once again a proud member of the European Union.
I love Canada. She really is my home. But - and you know there was a but coming - my son is in the UK and he sends me pics from long weekend trips. Like the Acropolis at sunset. Yes, I’m massively envious that a trip like that would take me to Toronto or thereabouts…
Trump’s fondness for King Charles III was evident during the King’s visit to the U.S.—and at times the president’s feelings appeared to tip into envy, Matt Viser argues. He reports on how Trump is remaking the capital, and the presidency, in regal style.

Dude couldn’t even jog to the end of his driveway. It also requires you to know how to swim.
Not far down the road from me, across the border, a mic wasn't working for an anthem singer at the hockey game. The Buffalo fans responded by standing and singing the Canadian anthem. This reminds me that many Americans are our friends, especially those who live just across the border...
DOJ indicting someone for posting 86 47 on social media is far more dangerous to Americans than someone posting 86 47 on social media. The real crime is the indictment itself.

Defense Department official Jules Hurst tells Congress that the federal government has spent about $25 billion on the Iran war so far.
The John Roberts Court has done more to reduce the political power of poor people and Black people while enlarging the voting rights of rich people and corporations than has any court since Roger Taney was Chief Justice in the 1800s. I opposed his nomination in 2005, and I stand by that.

Fifteen MPs travelled on a total of 19 sponsored trips last year, totalling more than $78,000 in comped expenses. This marks the second year of decline for junkets since the post-pandemic peak in 2023 and subsequent rule changes. www.hilltimes.com?p=497837
Two brilliant civil rights lawyers - one Asian American; one Black American. Both women. @aclu.org’s Cecellia Wang & @legaldefensefund.bsky.social’s @janainelson.bsky.social. They argued two of the most consequential cases in SCOTUS this year. This embrace is one of my favorite moments of the day.
People everywhere you look in Chicago’s Grant Park. I was here in October when the crowd was estimated at 100,000. There are more here today. #NoKings

He was certainly afraid of Vietnam-style combat in Vietnam.
In the latest episode of “Lives Well Lived”, we spoke with educator and author Zoe Weil about a simple idea inspired by Mahatma Gandhi. Gandhi once said, “My life is my message.” Zoe takes that seriously. Whether we realise it or not, our lives are our message too.
Mark Warner: "I saw no intelligence that Iran was on the verge of launching any kind of preemptive strike against the United States. None."
Kaine on Fox: "The president can act to defend US against imminent attack without congressional approval. But if you're going to initiate war, you need Congress. The president not only did not come to Congress, he acted without even notification to the vast majority of us. This is an illegal war."
Ted Cruz: "I have no indication they were anywhere close to getting nuclear weapons"
