Trump Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins just called his SNAP cuts a "pretty big win". Throwing 5 million struggling Americans — including families with children — off food aid to fund tax cuts for the rich isn't a "win". It's a national disgrace.

Graham Platner should take responsibility, recognize the larger good, and withdraw before July 13. And everyone who lifted him up must rally around a new nominee. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums. He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up. How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

In every moment where there's a crack, there is possibility. It's our opportunity as Canada in this moment to find it.

News Analysis: By ordering the U.S. military to summarily kill a group of people aboard what he said was a drug-smuggling boat, President Trump used the military in a way that had no clear legal precedent or basis, according to specialists in the laws of war and executive power.

Wildfires continue to burn across parts of the U.S. and Canada again, and air quality has dropped from "moderate" to "unhealthy" again for millions of Americans Thursday (lasting through the weekend). Here’s a quick 🧵 on how climate change is part of the smoke story 🔽

Map of North America showing active wildfires (marked with red flame icons) concentrated in western Canada and parts of the western U.S. Colored circles indicate current air quality: green (good), yellow (moderate), orange (unhealthy for sensitive groups), and red/purple (unhealthy/hazardous), with poor air quality across the central and eastern U.S., especially around the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley.
