I remember in my 20s I never used to get the flu shot and my father who does religiously got very angry with me and said “you don’t get it for you, you get it for elderly people and infants.” And I smartened up, immediately.

This officer was expected to become the first woman in the role and the first woman to command in Naval Special Warfare”

I wonder if the United States can learn anything from the last time a major industrialized country decided to isolate itself from the rest of the world?

Almost a decade after the Brexit vote, GDP in the UK is around 6-8% lower relative to peer countries. (Source: www.nber.org/papers/w34459)

Today, we honour the service of the brave women and men who answered the call.
 
Those who sacrificed years away from loved ones, those who returned from combat forever changed, and those who never came home — the veterans who served in the Canadian Armed Forces.

We were promised the files. Ghisliane got a puppy.

If child sexual abuse and an Epstein link can turn a prince into a former prince, it can turn a president into a former president. Release the Epstein files. @crustnews

Alberta's role in Canada's loss of measles elimination status embarrassing, former chief medical officer says | CBC News The latest federal data shows Alberta accounts for 38 per cent of Canada’s cases.

The impact that an anti-vax, anti-science provincial government can have on the entire country.

Look at what this garish, classless, tasteless fool has done to the People’s House.

China’s CO2 emissions have been flat or falling for past 18 months, analysis finds World’s biggest polluter on track to hit peak emissions target early but miss goal for cutting carbon intensity

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"

China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analyzed them in 2004.

Today, building a fence with solar can be cheaper than using wood.

Good morning to everyone but especially to Lady Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, whose judgement against Rudy Giuliani for defaming them and turning their lives upside down cannot be pardoned away by the president

SHE FAKED INSANITY TO GET LOCKED IN AN ASYLUM. FOR 10 DAYS, SHE ENDURED FREEZING BATHS, ROTTEN FOOD, AND BEATINGS-TO EXPOSE THE TRUTH. HER STORY FREED 1,600 WOMEN. SHE WAS 23 YEARS OLD. HER NAME WAS NELLIE BLY.

She operates on another level.
A phenomenal woman.

After everything, Senate Democrats still haven’t figured out that surrendering to Trump Republicans will end badly? Unbelievable.

The Syrian President once had a $10 million bounty on his head. I'm sure it's fine that he is visiting the White House today.

Trump grants pardons to Giuliani, Meadows, others linked to 2020 election efforts The pardons include 77 allies tied to efforts to overturn the 2020 election, including Rudy Giuliani, former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, and former Trump attorney Sidney Powell.

Trump just pardoned the people who lied & schemed to keep him in power after losing in 2020.

Giuliani. Meadows. Powell.

Pardoning your own coup attempt is not leadership — it’s a betrayal of justice www.npr.org/2025/11/10/n.... #BlueSky #NewsSky

Sen Dems: You guys promise? We are trusting you
Sen Repubs: Would we ever lie to you 😉
