Will they be able to impeach before he starts wars in Syria, Afghanistan and North Korea? That’s the only question. The official investigation into relations between Donald Trump and Russia now has “specific, concrete and corroborative evidence of collusion”, it has been reported. New evidence proves discussions took place “between people

…so he made another kind of bombshell, to distract. MOAB: Mislead, Obstruct, Antagonize, Baffle. CNN: Washington – The US military has dropped an enormous bomb in Afghanistan, according to four US military officials with direct knowledge of the mission. A GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast Bomb (MOAB), nicknamed the “mother of all

Just like John Lennon protested the failure of ‘Cold Turkey’ moving up the charts by sending back his MBE, I am protesting that none of you have turned the Hot Nasties ‘Hey There Girl’ into a massive hit. I want to retire on the royalties and live on a beach

And just look at the return address, Frank Addario: it’s your neo-Nazi client’s address. Must be a coincidence. Today I received new homophobic hate mail on #DayofPink. #irony #stopbullyingnow #lovetrumpshate #Toronto pic.twitter.com/Ysjs3PAncy — Kristyn Wong-Tam (@kristynwongtam) April 12, 2017

Got an email and a letter: For the uninitiated, Your Ward News is a neo-Nazi rag a few of us have been fighting for many months. Details here and here and here.

Can you lose by winning? It’s not a riddle, it’s a fair question. Surveying the wreckage that now litters the Conservative landscape, it’s a timely question, too. Because, make no mistake: the Conservatives’ leadership race has dramatically set back their party, perhaps for years to come. Among other things, it

Krugman in the New York Times: The attack [on Syria] instantly transformed news coverage of the Trump administration. Suddenly stories about infighting and dysfunction were replaced with screaming headlines about the president’s toughness and footage of Tomahawk launches. But outside its effect on the news cycle, how much did the

My son is at Vimy today with his St Mike’s classmates – and I know he will always remember the significance of it. More than 3,500 Canadians killed, more than 7,000 wounded. But the Canadians drove out the German Sixth Army, and – as some say – Canada itself came

I still stand by most of it. Link here. Snippets: It is far easier to get into a war than to get out of one. As the civilized world reflects on what to do about Syria, that truism bears remembering. The grim statistics, however, continue to shock us all: Tens

I’m bewildered as to why Trump gave the Syrians advance warning that he was going to bomb Syria. But I’m delighted Trudeau has said exactly the right thing, in precisely the right way. Kudos. Statement by the Prime Minister of Canada on U.S. strikes in Syria Ottawa, Ontario April 7,

Trump has been condemned by Russia, Syria, Iran, Hezbollah, and a number of American neo-Nazi groups. That's about as good as it gets. — Warren Kinsella (@kinsellawarren) April 7, 2017

So. This Pentagon statement. Read it. I take back the credit I gave Trump below. Why? Because he gave the Syrians and Russians a head’s up. Seriously. He hit a bunch of empty airplane hangars and a couple tool sheds. Best case.

…but to support this action (as I do). And Russians who may have been on the ground there, in harm’s way? Volenti non fit injuria, as we lawyers say. 50 US Tomahawk Cruise missiles bombarding Syrian regime military targets. Good. #uspoli — Warren Kinsella (@kinsellawarren) April 7, 2017
