They told us Brexit would save lots of money (that would all go to the NHS). In fact it’s costing us a fortune (and constraining our ability to fund everything).
Breaking news: The Trump administration secretly obtained 6 months of phone records for a journalist without a search warrant or any judicial oversight, raising alarm over an obscure legal tool it is deploying https://t.co/XZZjMFgjoL
One more way to buy influence in our politics? Pay online influencers with followings to tout you or your issue, in messages that do not disclose that money has changed hands.
Life in the Wild, Wild West of easily manipulable social media!

DOJ election monitors reportedly tried to access voting machines in Wyoming last week.
I’ve spent thousands of hours reporting on past efforts by Trump allies to access machines.
Mark my words: State officials need to be ready for this to happen again.

McFAUL: If you look at UN votes, Chinese don't vote with Russians when it comes to Ukraine. They always abstain. There're 6 or 7 countries that vote with Russians. Tragically, United States is one of them now. Think about that. We vote in defense of Putin, while Chinese abstain.
Canadian commentator @ItsDeanBlundell absolutely unloads on Trump in an interview with @MacFarlaneNews:
“We’re laughing at him. We’re mocking him… This is not a serious man. This is not a serious president.”
He says Trump has become a “caricature” in Canada with “nowhere to go.”
Anthony Albanese grew up in a country with caring policies which provided a chronically ill single mother & her son with free healthcare, free housing & free education all the way to uni. That son became PM & instead of building on that legacy he pulled the ladder up behind him
Does anyone think that it occurred to President Trump that the canal which allows all sea-going ships to access the Great Lakes' American ports (Chicago, Detroit, Duluth), is located entirely in Canada?
@ramitdyathroat@JeremyKonyndyk Why would NASA study the climate of the planet rather than just the US & why can’t Nepal do that? Maybe it’s because we’re all connected & some have more money & expertise than others. Also 90 Americans missing & 100,000+ visit each year to explore this amazing part of the world
The White House has selected a still from a video in which the goose ultimately wins the fight, and the eagle walks away confused. It’s even from CBC. We are just handing Canada things to make fun of us for.

The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”.
The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America.
We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms.
Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.
