By Canadian cartoonist, Michael de Adder in Globe and Mail.

Aligns perfectly with de Adder's jab at public disinterest in Melania's documentary.

A hideous architectural version of Mar-a-Lago face Four years after the ending of World War I, and 57 years after the emancipation of America’s slaves following the victory of the United States against the Confederacy that killed 800,000 Americans in ...

Thank you Steve Schmidt. I’ve been mourning the gaudy, tasteless, tin pot self-aggrandizing ornamentation that Trump is imposing on the American people’s revered capital. It’s shameful, embarrassing and very sad. Trump had stabbed American pride in the heart.

The arrest of Don Lemon is textbook fascism—a brazen attempt to silence reporting on a criminal regime. Stand up for Don, because our rights stand and fall with those of courageous journalists throughout this country.

Are you F-ing KIDDING ME?! @Donlemonbsky has been arrested by the DOJ?! Exercising your first amendment constitutionally “protected” right gets you locked up, exercising your 2nd gets you killed, and actual murder… well in uniform, gets you nothing!

This IS NOT NORMAL nor OK!

BREAKING: Mark Carney Broke Trump Three days of rage posts, fake boards, tariff threats, and insults after Carney told the truth — and we still doesn’t give a damn.

Finally Trump is forced to react to finding out what the free world actually thinks of him and his administration.

Andy Borowitz (@borowitzreport) The head of Trump’s vaccine panel calls the use of polio vaccines is optional, which is true if you consider the use of legs optional

Horrifying to any of us who grew up in the ‘40s before the Salk vaccine.

Opinion | The Coming Trump Crackup

This article is dead on, outlining eons of wise history lessons & foresight that are being ignored & forgotten by Americans. The final 2 paragraphs illustrate in chillingly graphic detail the dangerously fragile situation US democracy faces.

Yes indeed.
Unqualified & unwanted Special Envoy Jeff Landry has been disinvited from Greenland's annual dog sled race.
The Federation for Dog Sled Racing in Greenland confirms he reportedly received an invitation, but the tourism company who invited him withdrew it.
