Trump’s $10 Billion Defamation Suit Points to WSJ’s Lack of Disclosure

On Friday, President Trump filed another defamation suit against a media outlet, this time against the Wall Street Journal. According to the filing, much of the “malicious, deliberate, and despicable actions that give rise to this action” stemmed from the fact that the newspaper never produced nor explained how it obtain or was informed of a purported birthday letter from Trump to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The filing argued that the point of the article was to tie the men together.

The filing accused writers Khadeeja and Joseph Palazzolo of pulling “quotes from the nonexistent letter,” while The Journal never showed the reader proof that the letter existed…

White House says ‘The View’ could be canceled next following Joy Behar’s anti-Trump tirade

A White House spokesperson warned “The View” co-host Joy Behar that her show could be next on the chopping block after her latest tirade against President Donald Trump on Wednesday.

During the show, Behar and her fellow hosts responded to Trump’s call for former President Barack Obama to be criminally investigated for allegedly manufacturing intelligence that prompted the Trump–Russia collusion narrative.

“First of all, who tried to overthrow the government on Jan. 6?” Behar said. “Who was that again? That was not Obama.


OH NO!

I’m all for shared sacrifice, but let’s be clear about who should really foot the bill for Mark Carney’s proposed military spending

A national poll released last week found that Canadians favoured increasing the national debt rather than raising taxes as the best way to pay for the gigantic increase in military spending recently pledged by Prime Minister Mark Carney.

The poll result is hardly surprising. But it tells us nothing.

Indeed, the poll is of dubious value, since it left out the most basic question: Do you support Carney’s plan to massively increase military spending over the next decade?

Swapping weather bombs for real bombs: The debate over climate change as national security heats up

There was a remarkably salient moment at a recent journalism conference in Seoul where participants from 50 countries debated climate change and its effect on both the literal and political landscape of the world.

The consensus, albeit a rough one, was that the public — from Azerbaijan to Zaire — was exhausted by the issue. It was tough to get their attention and people increasingly tuned out, even though in some cases their homes had literally been blown away.

Why are Thailand and Cambodia fighting?

Who fired the first shot? That question lies behind the sudden and dramatic escalation of tensions between Thailand and Cambodia along their disputed border, where clashes have escalated into full-blown bombing raids, the complete closure of the 500-mile border and the expulsion of ambassadors from both sides.

But behind the latest violence lies hundreds of years of nationalist rivalry, a century of fallout from the colonial era, the fragile egos of former strongmen whose children now rule each country, and a new sense of economic endangerment in two states most affected by President Trump’s tariff war.

Auto industry says environment minister won’t relent despite calls to scrap EV mandate

Crazy woman

OTTAWA — Automakers calling on Ottawa to roll back its electric-vehicle mandate say their case has so far failed to sway Environment Minister Julie Dabrusin, who appears “committed” to keeping it in place.

Rising pressure over the EV issue is part of the central tension facing Prime Minister Mark Carney, which is how much to adjust the Liberals’ climate policies to address concerns coming from industry and premiers, amid a time of economic uncertainty.

The memoir’s publisher, Hachette’s Little, Brown & Co., hasn’t yet set a publication date.

Biden, who is 82, said at an event earlier this month that he was “working my tail off” to write a memoir, and indicated that he would focus on the four years he served as president.
