@crampell.bsky.social on the Canadian "insult" that set Trump off: "They don't want to be annexed by the United States. They don't want to become the fifty-first state. I know, huge insult."

Poland had some wise words, for Russia. They can puff out their chests all they like, they can keep killing... But this Polish Foreign Minister is 💯 correct. They will never win.

Canada is on track to warm by 5°C within a generation — but it’s not inevitable. To avoid the worst, Canada must play offence and defence: lowering emissions while adapting to climate change. 👇

INVESTIGATION: Canada’s National Observer has discovered a network of deceptive, AI-generated websites promoting Albertan separatism. The websites, rather than targeting human readers, are targeting chatbots — trying to influence the answers they provide.

A US-linked network of fake websites is promoting Alberta separatism to AI chatbots
The websites present crude, AI-generated slop disguised as the voice of real Albertans. But they're made in Florida — and they're not even targeting Albertans directly.

FUKUYAMA: Trump remains pro-Russian. I don’t believe for a minute that he’s become more sympathetic to Ukraine. He’s frustrated because he thought Russians would actually defeat Ukraine, and he’s unhappy that this hasn’t forced them into settlement. But he hasn’t switched sides.

Rename Canola! Wait until Trump learns that canola oil, of which Americans consume ~7 billion pounds a year, was invented in Canada in the 1970s, bred from rapeseed plants to remove a bitter taste, and that the name's a portmanteau combining Can (for Canada) with ola (from the Latin oleum, oil).

-the global web of deep alliances the US built over decades after 1945 was always one of its key sources of power, and a key part of what made it sustainably more successful than other great powers. Trump is destroying this, and so self-sabotaging US power, at a stunning rate.

Norah O'Donnell's "Oh, so you think he's referring to you?" to Donald Trump's "I'm not a rapist. I didn't rape anybody" ranks with Dan Rather's "No, sir, Mr. President. Are you?" to Richard Nixon's "Are you running for something?" as the best reporter's retort of all time.

Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October. Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year. Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce. Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.

Ukraine can now happily ignore Trump's calls for Ukraine giving up territory to Russia. 9. Unless the US apologizes for its support for Russia, kleptocracy & autocracy in Hungary, the chasm between the US & Europe will widen substantially. (Orban should be praised for conceding so fast.) /5

Hungarians deserve every congratulations for giving Peter Magyar a bigger margin than Orban has ever gotten in all of his rigged elections - and this within the system that Orban rigged. Magyar now has a constitutional majority to undo Orban's constitutional prison and govern as a democratic leader.

People will be closely studying how Hungary's opposition pulled off their win in such a pro-incumbent system. Important to note that the theme was corruption. Democrats need to get much better at calling out Trump's corruption.

When he launched this war, the President vowed regime change and “unconditional surrender.” What has he gotten? We went from Ayatollah Khamenei to Ayatollah Khameini Jr. - and are now negotiating over a 10-point plan written by the Iranians.

Trump does not think strategically, historically, geographically, or even rationally. He does not connect actions he takes on one day to events that occur weeks later. Allied leaders know that if they help him in the Gulf, he won't be grateful, or even remember www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Shortly after the start of the war in Iran on February 28, Iran declared that the Strait of Hormuz — which is used to transport about 20% of the world’s oil — was closed.

Buttigieg: "Trump's political operation was raising money off images at a dignified transfer. Any politician who does that has no business leading American troops into war. If the president is willing to raise campaign funds over the bodies of America's war dead, he's unfit to be commander in chief"
