SCOOP: While Trump was crisscrossing the USA last week trying to help the GOP stave off a midterm washout, two of his top political advisers were in Republika Srpska advising its pro-Russian government on election issues. James Blair & Chris LaCivita were paid hundreds of thousands of dollars each.

I was only contesting the false equivalence of this bill with Trump's OBBBA. I believe we are lagging in productivity and badly need investments but it shouldn't come at the cost of environment or our morals on human rights, which is what concerns me most about Carney's approach.

BaseBox 🇨🇦 @basebox.bsky.social · 24/09/2026
I suppose you have; so please point out to me where the Canadian bill targets social safety nets. Until you do that, my understanding of both bills is that Trump's OBBBA is an omnibus bill which guts social security safety nets while the Canadian bill is solely a Corporate Tax bill, nothing more.

"Harrowing" @thebulletin.org article mentioned in a recent NYT op-ed www.nytimes.com/2026/07/21/o...
The most harrowing report about Iran’s future was put out seven months ago by analysts writing in the highly regarded Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists — and it never mentioned nuclear weapons. It mentioned only the nation’s acute water crisis, which may have shut down more Iranian institutions than Israel and America combined.

“During the summer of 2025, Iran experienced an exceptional heat wave, with daytime temperatures across several regions, including Tehran, approaching 50 degrees Celsius (122 degrees Fahrenheit) and forcing the temporary closure of public offices and banks,” the analysts said. “During this period, major reservoirs supplying the Tehran region reached record-low levels. … Officials warned that the capital city may even have to be evacuated if water supplies fail to recover.”
