@PierrePoilievre Do you have any idea how sick Canadians are of you?
You are the most hated politician in Canada. Nobody listens to your negative bullshit anymore. You were all washed up April 28th, 2025.
Take the hint. Resign.

Albania has officially drawn the
line, Sazan 'lsland is being cleared. In an stunning turn of events, Albanian authorities have
launched an active enforcement operation to kick
out foreign developers and private security
personnel occupying Sazan Island. The decisive
action marks a total collapse of the controversial €1.4 billion luxury real estate deal that aimed to turn the protected national marine reserve and
former military base into an exclusive private playground for global elites,
The eviction comes after four consecutive weeks of historic
hundred-thousand-strong protests that completely
shut down the capital city of Tirana, refusing to allow their native coastlines and ecologically sensitive wetlands to be privatized by foreign
investors, the Albanian public unified under a
single, unyielding demand: "Albania is not for sale, the courts faced with a historic political crisis, mounting
domestic fury, and a widening anti-corruption
investigation by special prosecutors (SPAK), the
government was forced to pivot, by deploying state forces to reclaim Sazan lsland, Albania has
sent a clear message to international billionaires
and foreign developers trying to bypass environmental protection laws, This historic victory for citizen-led activism proves that the collective voice of a nation can successfully overpower backroom corporate deals and protect sovereign land.
The people spoke, and the
government had to listen.

JWST Drops Another Jaw-Dropping Deep Field: Thousands of Galaxies in One FrameNASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has done it again — delivering a single, mind-blowing image packed with thousands of galaxies, glowing like cosmic jewels scattered across the darkness.This isn’t just a pretty picture. It’s a time machine peering back billions of years to when the universe was still a toddler — only a few hundred million years old.Why This Image Is a Game-Changer:Piercing the Cosmic Veil: JWST’s powerful infrared eyes slice straight through thick clouds of dust and gas that completely hid these ancient galaxies from Hubble and other previous telescopes.
Earliest Light: Some of the galaxies captured here formed when the universe was just a few hundred million years past the Big Bang — giving us an unprecedented look at the first chapters of cosmic history.

'It’s his annual Fourth of July bash, a highlight of the summer social season in the nation’s capital. Hundreds attend the celebration at the Ambassador’s palatial residence and grounds. This time they shouldn’t go. They should give it the big snub, leave the place deserted, leave him alone with his cake.'

By firing Scott Pelley, editor-in-chief of CBS News Bari Weiss has single-handedly destroyed the most brilliant investigative newsmagazine in network history, 60 Minutes. Weiss exemplifies everything MAGA is about: ego, incompetence, and blithering idiocy.

As President, I would read 10 letters a day sent to me by ordinary Americans. At the Obama Presidential Center, we’ll have some of the letters I read — and responded to — every night. I still get emotional reading them, and it’s one of my favorite exhibits.
