The BBC needs to have a debate about whether Musk's outbursts should keep leading the news. This isn't about censoring or suppressing his views; it's about whether to amplify them. Most Brits aren't on X, they don't follow Musk & not every raving from a foreign plutocrat should set the news agenda

Speculation on Trump’s health is an ongoing saga. Despite his seemingly unhealthy lifestyle, he’s like a weed. Keeps popping up year after year. Difficult to eradicate.

He's begging for attention again. President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday plans to slap 25% tariffs on all imported cars, escalating a global trade war just weeks after previous tariffs touched off a market rout and triggered concern about a possible recession.

I’m sorry. But were these folks born yesterday? This is Trump we’re talking about. The man of 30,000 lies in his first term. Are people not wise to him yet? What does it take? I fear many, many Americans have acutely selective hearing and incredibly short term memory.

The 4 Nations Face-Off was a game-changer. How will the NHL capitalize on it -- and what comes next for its midseason events?

J.T. Miller on Trump: “It was so awesome to get his support. It’s a pretty big deal for him to take time out of his schedule... we’re kind of pinching ourselves this tournament.” Not sure which would be harder after a quote like that, going back to Vancouver, or New York

To say his call was a 'distinct honor, cool, and a pretty big deal' is embarrassing. He just wanted the game to be about HIM!🤡

The wild success of the NHL 4 Nations Faceoff just further confirms my belief that in 2028, MLB should replace the All Star Game with a two week Olympic Break and let everyone go play in the Olympics.

Trump owes a thank you to Latino voters, especially Latino evangelicals who turned out for him in double digits in 2024’s presidential election. They helped tip the White House back in his favor. Now they’re seeing the other side of the man they put there: Mass deportations. Talk about being conned.

All so senseless and needless. But that’s Trump. Attacking America‘s allies while giving comfort to her enemies. Going after the EU next. A two-man wrecking crew (Trump and sidekick Musk) spreading chaos wherever they go.

That could have been their thinking. Just the wrong time to assume so. Hope she understands reaction was not directed at her. Elements of crowd making a political statement, at a time when many Canadians are angry, feel threatened and emotions are raw.

Mike Beamish @sixbeamers.bsky.social · 03/02/2025

I felt for her. But why would the folks at Canucks Sports and Entertainment/Rogers Arena place her in that difficult situation? Can they not read the room, mood in the country? Were they not aware of earlier reactions in Toronto (Raptors) and Ottawa (Sens)? Need some awareness of the moment, people.

Skip playing national anthems at sports events? Best suggestion of all. A Detroit-Vancouver game in the middle of winter — Game No. 52 or whatever — has no national or patriotic significance. At this time, Star Spangled Banner only serves as outlet of scorn for Mad Donald’s trade war vs. the world.

I’m with you. National anthems (before professional sports events) are a vestige from WW2. Then again, Trump has instituted a senseless “trade war” between the U.S. and its closest neighbours and prime trading partners, Canada and Mexico. So, American anthem has become a flashpoint in the pushback.
