In Albania THE PEOPLE (ordinary citizens en masse) have:
(1) understood the link btw int'l plutocracy and the assault on national sovereignty
(2) UNITED to protect the latter from the former.
A case-study of people both making full use of and preserving their self-determination.
FIFA President Infantino tried to force the representative of Palestine to stand with Israel and take a picture at the 76th FIFA Congress
Palestine refused instead shouting out "We are suffering"
FIFA is a sick organization and the World Cup should be boycotted by everyone
J P Morgan does a bad deal in 2015.
A decade later, their lobbyists have found an audience in our Premier. So aware is he that Toronto residents do not want a dramatically expanded waterfront airport, one that would undo billions of dollars of investment in restoring fragile urban habitats in The Port Lands and erode the walkable, vibrant urban neighbourhoods we have spent decades building, that he has chosen to force through legislation to seize control and override local decision-making.
When is this jig up?
Now that we know, we know.
Charlie Angus on Alberta voter data leak: We cannot treat the theft of voter data as simply a privacy breach. It must be investigated through the larger lens of foreign threat.
@polish_man23@RodAVanier The polls have been consistent. The vast majority of Canadians have come to the conclusion that Mark Carney is the best fit at this moment. No bluster, no fanfare. Simply a calm cool conclusion based on Carney's credentials, core values and his love for Canada 🇨🇦
You cannot commit genocide in Gaza, invade Lebanon, bomb Iran, Syria, Yemen, and Iraq, violate Geneva and Vienna Conventions, international law, human rights, and state sovereignty, then hide behind anti-Semitism.
There is no rise in anti-Semitism. There is a rise in the number of people who are very angry at what Israel is doing. Your inability to separate the two is equally problematic.
🚨 JUST IN:
BBC compiled evidence of over 160 Palestinian children in Gaza deliberately shot in the head by Israeli snipers.
The reports state: "Israeli Jews are hunting children for entertainment."
Just left the DOJ where I was looking at unredacted Epstein Files. As always, it’s sickening to read testimony from women who detail years of abuse at the hands of Epstein, Maxwell and other billionaires who’ve yet to be prosecuted.
We must end this White House cover up.
Iraqi footballer Aymen Hussein issued a statement after being detained and questioned for seven hours upon entering the United States:
“If America is so hostile towards foreign nationals, why is it hosting the #2026WorldCup?”
🚨WHOA! Bernie Sanders publicly diagnosed Trump's ridiculous behavior in his Meet the Press interview.
"We say, 'Oh well, that's just Trump,' but that's a mentally unstable person... who has strong paranoid tendencies..."
Trump is mentally unfit.
25th Amendment now.
JUST IN: Reporter Catherine Herridge testifies that CBS News locked her out of the building and seized all her files, says she was working with sources to "expose government corruption."
Nothing at all going on here, folks.
"CBS News’ decision to seize my reporting records crossed a red line that I believe should never be crossed by any media organization."
"Multiple sources said they were concerned that by working with me to expose government corruption and misconduct they would be identified and exposed."
"CBS News locked me out of the building and seized hundreds of pages of my reporting files, including confidential source information."
FOLLOW ME, THE NEXT DROP WILL BE SHOCKING.
🚨NOW: Rep. Thomas Massie just stood on the House floor and named what every politician in DC has spent 58 years pretending did not happen
The USS Liberty. June 8, 1967.
34 dead American sailors. 174 wounded. Over 70% casualty rate on a virtually unarmed US ship.
25 minutes of Israeli jets, Israeli rockets, Israeli 30mm cannon fire, and ISRAELI NAPALM ON THE BRIDGE. Then Israeli torpedoes. Then Israel machine-gunned the lifeboats.
MASSIE: "They were intent on leaving no survivor."
Then the part nobody wants you to think about: the Saratoga and the America launched planes to help. The planes were RECALLED. The crew sat there bleeding for 17 hours.
Dean Rusk. Richard Helms. Admiral Moaner. The chief counsel of the Court of Inquiry himself. None of them believed the "mistaken identity" story.
And now you understand exactly why the entire DC machine and Israel lobby has spent the last year trying to primary this man out of existence.
You are not allowed to say the quiet part. He said it anyway.
Honor the crew. https://t.co/XuDLeFF4gJ.
Rosie O'Donnell on Donald Trump,
"If you grew up in New York you knew he was an assh*le and a liar from day one"
"I am 64 years and spent my whole life here"
"I remember when his were repossessed at the runways at LaGuardia Airport
"I remember when he was broke"
"I remember when he would call up places and pretend to be his own publicist"
"He is a conman, he is a narcissist, and he is a psychopath if you ask me"
I’ve been thinking a lot about the extraordinary outbursts of the President of the United States against female journalists... well, actually against journalists in general and journalism. But it feels like he saves his most childlike behavior and irrational language for female reporters, calling them all kinds of names that kids in kindergarten are given times out for. It’s stunning to me to witness such behavior from any leader, any CEO, any person of influence or importance. I’ve never witnessed someone like this raging, this weekend with @meetthepress host @kwelkernbc, just last week in the Oval Office with @cnn’s @kaitlancollins, calling women stupid or piggy, telling them to “smile”, calling them darling, demeaning their credibility. Every good man should denounce this behavior. Every person should be able to stand up for their colleagues and say “No more.”
Imagine this man screaming like this at your daughter, your wife, your sister, your mother... would you stand for it? No, you wouldn’t! And neither should any of us. It’s unacceptable and undignified. Period. End of story.

Pete Hegseth went to Normandy France and made some Nazi ass anti-immigration speech and then proceeded to get kicked out of the country - being told never to come back.
Your grandfathers are rolling in their graves rn. This isn't what they fought and died for at all. He desecrated the memory of every soldier who fought, and who fell in Normandy. Fuck Pete Hegseth.

Smith is the face of Cronyism.
Our soldiers quickly captured two enemy columns of armored vehicles, including modern T-72B3s and even T-90Ms. Instead of simply blowing up the tanks, they did something the Russians certainly did not expect.
Ukrainian crews got into the captured Russian tanks, switched on the radios, adopted the Russians' call signs, and set off on a deep raid behind enemy lines, posing as friendly forces.
The Russian columns moved calmly, believing they were safe. Our tank crews quickly neutralized the original crews, mastered the equipment, and blended into the Russian traffic flow. They spoke Russian over the radio, used the correct call signs, and imitated the style of Russian communications. At checkpoints, they were waved through without suspicion: "Go ahead, guys."
The Ukrainians then calmly drove straight onto the grounds of a Russian brigade headquarters.
Once inside, they suddenly turned their turrets and opened fire. The headquarters, supply depots, and vehicle park were turned into an inferno within minutes. Russian troops ran in panic between tents, firing in every direction, but it was already too late. They had allowed a "Trojan horse" onto their own base.
The operation was carried out brilliantly. Ukrainian forces seized the headquarters, captured officers, destroyed key facilities, and withdrew with minimal losses.
