There is a suspected outbreak of the plague in Russia. Yes, you read that right. And we cannot trust RFK Jr. and the Trump administration to be prepared to deal with this. We need a Democratic public health doctor in the US Senate.

Bill C-233 was defeated 295–22 by Liberal MPs on 11/3 before it could reach committee. Liberal Sean Casey was later removed as Parliamentary Secretary after supporting it. Why does Canada still have loopholes in its arms-export regime? Watch former Canadian Ambassador to the UN Allan Rock explain.

Not that anyone needs a reminder but this man has the nuclear codes. Far too many people will just shrug this off or find some way to justify it. But Trump is unwell, incoherent, and a danger to us all.
