Obama did an incredible job skewering Trump's moronic comments on the Cheesecake Factory
Red Wings suspend Larkin without pay after forward says he won't play sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/red…
He could be traded tomorrow if he accepted a trade to Montreal. Why he wouldn't agree to play in the greatest hockey city in the world is beyond me
I wish we didn't have to "make it so". Such sad news. Superbly versatile and talented actor. Wonderful man. RIP Jean-Luc Picard.
Breaking News: Patrick Stewart, who found acclaim as a Shakespearean actor before making a career pivot that would bring him his greatest fame, has died at 86. He achieved pop-culture stardom with major roles in “Star Trek: The Next Generation” and “X-Men.” nyti.ms/4zc4Ka8

Israel is strong, scared and dangerously divided. But change is not on the ballot paper avrumburg.substack.com/p/isr…

Eisenkot did not win, but Netanyahu lost 20% of his support. He is not in a position to form a government, in spite of how he tries to spin it.

This was a very unwise move by the Dems. They've effectively legitimised the GOP's efforts not to certify the election.
Keep this in mind, Maine voters. Those 50% tariffs will come right back on following the midterms. Susan Collins will prove her usual ineffectual self.

In July 1988, the Knesset voted unanimously to suspend the fanatical Rabbi Meir Kahane for five plenary sessions after he swore at an Arab Knesset member (Mohammed Miari) and waved a hangman's noose at him. The other parties refused to work with his party, Kach. Now his successors have leading positions of authority in Israel and have equally extreme views. The country's centre-left has evaporated. This is a problem that goes way beyond Netanyahu, as people are about to find out.
JUST IN: 🇮🇱 The Israeli people have just elected a man who believes that “every baby in Gaza is an enemy” and that it is “Moral” to KILL THEM ALL so that “Gaza is empty”
Moshe Feiglin, who has just been voted into parliament, also believes that Israel needs “to occupy Gaza and settle it, so NOT A SINGLE GAZAN CHILD will be left.”
In what kind of society does such evil positions win you votes?

Netanyahu has urged opposition leaders not to cooperate with Arab parties, calling instead for the formation of a Jewish-only government. Replace the word "Arab" with "Black" and "Jewish-only", with "white-only" and tell me how this is different from an apartheid system.

Eisenkot's potential partners have balked at relying on the Arab parties’ support in the aftermath of the Hamas-led attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. OTOH, if Israel truly wants to neutralise the charge of apartheid, the opposition must bring at least one of the Israeli Arab parties into government.

They are all taking a page from the Trump playbook.
Say this for Vucic, Bolsonaro, and Orban. They may have had authoritarian tendencies, but ultimately they accepted the election outcomes.
More BS from Bibi. If you believe this nonsense, then it's worthwhile questioning Netanyahu's previous claim to have already “devastated” Iran’s nuclear programme. So which is it?
People are calling last night's game between Calgary vs Toronto and trap game for the Leafs. I'm not do sure. The Flames might already be close to finished with their rebuild. They looked like an extremely fast and skilled club with excellent goaltending. Very impressive job by Craig Conroy cleaning up the wreckage left by Brad Treliving

Before people start going on about corrupt courts subverting democracy, it is worth pointing out that BOTH
Lula AND Bolsonaro’s campaign requested the extension for voting hours after they said public transport delays and bad weather prevented voters from getting to the polls on time.
