Lisa Murkowski cuts a last minute deal solely to benefit Alaska, exempting it from some of the more odious parts of the bill to secure her vote and sell out the rest of the US. Yeah this stuff sucks and hurts a lot of people, but I got Alaskans exempted so the hell with you.

Meet Evan Anzoo, a five-year-old boy in South Sudan who died when Elon Musk shut down USAID and the boy lost access to his HIV meds. Musk says no one has died because of the aid shutdown, but that's because he didn't look. RIP, Evan, you deserved better. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Canadians are removingย American liquor and California wines from their store shelves.ย 

Theyโ€™re pulling back on future visits to the U.S.

And they are uncharacteristically brandishing unvarnished anger over what they see as a betrayal by a longtime friend.

To the shock of absolutely no one, US ideology aligns with the far-right goals of Russia and Turkey.

How about becoming less Russia and more Norwegian?

So, Canadian fentanyl labs are the new immigrants eating pets, which was the new migrant caravan, which was the new Obamacare death panels, which was the new Iraqi weapons of mass destruction.

Sounds about right.

Elon fires hundreds of Twitter employees and Twitter goes down.

Elon fires air traffic controllers and planes go down.

Elon goes on a DOGE rampage and the stock market goes down.

Elon regulates his own SpaceX and its starships go down.

I'm sensing a pattern.
