America could wake up on Wednesday with all three branches of our government — the — Executive, Legislative, and Judicial — Trumpist.
With this clip, take five minutes to ponder Germany’s memorials and the price that nation paid for being bamboozled by a bombastic autocrat. Listen to the heartfelt message of my German tour guides, for whom these memorials are like ghosts of mistakes made and evils allowed… ghosts that haunt their society still. These are the same guides who clink glasses in the beer halls and yodel from the hilltops with our American tour members. They admire America. They love America. And they are worried for America.
If we vote for fascism, it’ll likely be won by one or two percent (or even less)…and perhaps just a few stadiums of people will tip the balance. And history has taught my European friends that the cost of a course correction is infinitely more heartbreaking after a wannabe dictator wins an election than before. We are all participants, we are all responsible, and we will all bear the consequences of our collective choice.
North Korea recently tested a new ballistic missile, with record flight time and altitude. The world merely watches as this threat grows.
Through Moscow’s assistance, North Korea has advanced its artillery and missile capabilities. Now, they are learning the tactics of modern warfare. Thousands of North Korean soldiers are already near Ukraine’s borders, preparing to fight. And the world is still watching.
We know where these North Korean troops are gathering in Russia. We could act preemptively if we had the means—long-range capability. Yet, America, the UK, and Germany watch.
We understand the logistics pipeline between Russia and North Korea that enables this aggression, and it must be stopped. Strong Asian nations, including China, have a role to play. If China truly advocates for ending the war, it must act.
If you've not yet seen the extraordinary documentary Yintah - telling the story of Wet’suwet’en land defenders' struggle against CGL pipeline – it's now on Netflix.
Don't miss it!

Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you HAVE TO WATCH this news story. You actually can’t make this up. Ford claims without evidence that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data. https://t.co/pBWLfi5QKC
@BCReality@WoodfordinDK@BCGreens@bcndp We do care, and we may have gotten what we wanted. We may have prevented an NDP majority, just like the federal NDP prevented a Liberal majority. This will be good for BC.
@WalterWhite2018@OhUrbanity I said car lanes. Car lanes and regular lanes are two labels for the same thing. Most people call them car lanes, but you pretend ignorance for some reason.
@WalterWhite2018@OhUrbanity Cycling is safe when there are bike lanes. Cyclists take up less space when there are bike lanes. Are you against bike lanes or against bikes?
