When it comes to diplomacy, Pete Hoekstra isnโ€™t an ambassador โ€” heโ€™s a MAGA troll who treats Canadaโ€™s sovereignty like a joke. Itโ€™s long past time to show him the door. Expel Pete Hoekstra immediately. cultmtl.com/2026/11/canada-nโ€ฆ

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Ray Hudson: โ€œPeople think Iโ€™m an admirer of Messi. No! Youโ€™re so wrong. Iโ€™m an admirer of genius in football. For me, he surpasses everybody. Pelรฉ, I grew up with. I played against Pelรฉ many times, saw Maradona play, but I have never seen anything like the way this man (Messi) does it, and so consistently.โ€

That's a savagely candid thing for a politician to say. He's absolutely right but I think it's almost startling that he would say the quiet part loud. He knows more than we do by nature of his security clearance so I would suggest paying attention is the appropriate thing to do

๐Ÿ‘ "If he's standing, the rest of us should as well." ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ Michael J. Fox is promoted to the Companion of the Order of Canada, the highest level. Equal to Mark Carney. ๐Ÿ’ Stitched at the end is a clip of Fox in action at a Boston Bruins charity game on Nov 12, 1988. ๐Ÿป Fox & Bruins President Cam Neely are good friends.

Harvard kids singing Radioheadโ€™s โ€œCreep.โ€ This could have gone very wrong. Then the lead singer opens his mouth. The Harvard Veritones have won at the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella โ€” the real-world competition that inspired Pitch Perfect. Turn the sound on for this one.
