This is interesting: Project 2025 mastermind invited to speak at Carney's cabinet meeting. PMO says Heritage Foundation president knows the Trump administration's playbook. Didn’t have that on my Bingo card!

Carney has the best credentials of any current world leader. And he’s the richest man to ever run Canada. He’s the kind of guy you want to have a pint with…🍺

We need to stop blaming others for something that has nothing to do with them. Once blame enters the equation, it has a negative correlation with accountability. Then we never make it past the step of "it was their fault" to actually do something about it. Vicious cycle with no accountability!

I get it and I agree, but journalists know if they pushback people in Congress or Trump, will simply refuse to talk to them. How effective are you as a journalist if you are blackballed from access to Trump? He would simply battle back, call them names, and fake news and that becomes the story.

The Trump plan for Gaza includes the relocation of the entire population - 2 million people - a US “trusteeship” and the creation of a tourism and tech hub. Landowners get digital tokens worth $5,000 and rent subsidies. Investors are promised 4x return on $100 billion.

Unfortunately, corporate media in many countries, particularly the US and Canada, have significant ties to each other due to media ownership. This should raise concerns about a lack of transparency and potential biases that favour corporate execs and limit public access to critical information.

Meanwhile…Trump’s new deadline of 10 or 12 days for Russia to make progress toward ending the war in Ukraine or face consequences goes unanswered. How many more children will die before he decides Putin is the aggressor? Where are the much needed sanctions?

I’m sad and disgusted that political power in the US has prioritized wealth over humanity. Aid workers with compassion for human welfare is a driving force for humanitarians, who may be paid or volunteer their time. Some have made this their life’s work. What message does this send to them?
