Boston's Mayor Wu playing with Yo-Yo Ma at Symphony Hall

In the 28 pt peace plan, Russia is demanding NATO not expand - ever, Ukraine cap its military at 1/2 what it is now, the US gets the frozen RU assets yo rebuild Ukraine, but the US gets a 50% kickbacks US says RU can rejoin the G8, as if the other G7 have no say!
Garbage!

Trump's 28-point "peace plan" is just Russia's capitulation demands repackaged once again. The only real difference is Trump is now demanding to make a profit from the deal.

The F-35 evaluation in Canada started in 2017 and was finally decided in 2022,
- the Gripen finished 2nd
- a GREAT deal has changed Geopolitically and Economically since that decision.

When rage is the bait, truth is the threat.
Poilievre’s “Maple MAGA” routine runs on rage, misinfo & lies — but even his own voters are starting to tune out. His favourability’s dropped 12 pts in 5 months.
That’s why they’re desperate to kill the CBC — facts ruin the grift.

Congress, pay attention. We the People decide where our money goes — not the President. And we are demanding full support for Ukraine, with everything they need to win. Trump does not hold the power of the purse. The American people do. Act accordingly.

The US President is NOT the Leader of the Free World!!
The media and Americans should stop saying that phrase.
Americans have fewer freedoms within their own country than people in other countries ...
(except for guns = Mass shootings instead of universal health care)

Vaccines DO NOT cause autism - there is extensive research showing this. Resurrecting old, discredited, fraudulent work is shameful.
Vaccine-preventable illnesses are serious - this is going to cause real harms.
This is dangerous & disappointing.

This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

It’s a pattern.
Nov 14, aboard Air Force One, Trump told Bloomberg reporter Catherine Lucey, “Quiet. Quiet, piggy.”
It’s not new. He called Miss Universe Alicia Machado “Miss Piggy” and “Miss Housekeeping.”
He’s called women “fat pigs,” “dogs,” “slobs,” and “disgusting animals.”

Mexico removed the signs, insisting the area is theirs.
