The guys on the “other side” of climate change are science deniers. On voting rights, racists. On vaccines, cranks. They’re deeply invested in bad faith arguments, not something you can go to lunch over.

I marvel at how Jim Henson’s brain worked. This was a presentation piece to the executives at CBS when he was trying to get them, ultimately unsuccessfully, to pick up THE MUPPET SHOW... But if you’re a TV executive sitting in a boardroom watching this, there’s no way it’s not leaving an impression.

For a long time I've wanted a sense of how trump has or hasn't interacted with chatbots (we know he posts a lot of slop sure). And this TIME anecdote about Grok arguably leading Trump into war is just extremely bracing
Since returning to office, Trump has marveled at AI’s capabilities. He is increasingly in thrall to the tech executives courting him. In December 2025, Elon Musk returned to the Oval Office for a clandestine meeting. Trump spent hours asking Grok, Musk’s AI chatbot, questions about his presidency and legacy, according to an official present. At the time, Trump was ordering missile strikes against Venezuelan boats he alleged were smuggling drugs into the U.S. He asked Grok how Venezuelans would react if the U.S. captured Maduro. According to the official present, the chatbot responded that Maduro was a repressive and deeply unpopular dictator and that many Venezuelans would likely celebrate his downfall. After Trump ordered the mission to seize Maduro, the following month, celebrations broke out in the streets. Trump, according to officials, came away thinking Grok was ingenious.

If you are justifiably concerned about the current crop of Republicans serving in public office, they pale in comparison to what's coming. Complete and total lunacy, detached from reality and the concerns of the people they're supposed to represent. Conspiracy theorists and bigots.

This is the part many Americans -- including the Bezosites at the Washington Post -- don't understand. Canadians don't see this just as a Trump thing. It's that America elected him twice, and the second time with an even bigger mandate. The problem we're addressing is America, not Trump.

Canada's Conservative movement has spent the last decade deliberately making its followers more angry, more conspiratorial, and way, way more online. The cost of that strategy could be higher than they ever imagined. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/09/09/o...

The Conservative civil war has only just begun
Pierre Poilievre practises a form of digital-first, anger-driven politics that nearly took him to the pinnacle of Canadian politics. Now it might be about to drag his entire political movement down.

Incredible sentence.
Indeed, while Jordan became a reclusive prisoner to his iconic status, Barkley lived to be out among the masses, and his nightclub hopping led to more than one mano a mano face-off with loudmouth fans. “Let there be no conflict in America,” Barkley said in 1997, after he tossed an obnoxious heckler through a plate-glass window in an Orlando, Fla., bar.

The new Canada West Foundation report on the costs of separation begins with a ritual recitation of grievances by none other than Ted Morton, in case you wondered whether the business community has figured out the role it unwittingly played (and plays) in advancing the separatist cause. 🧵
