In 1941, the most dangerous man in the Nazi intelligence service wasn't a double agent or a master saboteur, but a failed chicken farmer from Barcelona who had convinced the Third Reich he was a fanatic fascist leading a network of twenty-seven imaginary spies. Juan Pujol

The history books quietly bypassed is that Barack Obama, during the most pressure-saturated nights of his presidency, would retreat alone to the Treaty Room on the second floor of the White House residence — not to strategize, not to take calls, but to handwrite personal letters

We now know that Katie Johnson not only sued Donald Trump for raping her at 14 — and gave sworn testimony under the penalty of perjury — but that she was interviewed by the @FBI FOUR TIMES and her story was found to be credible. Donald Trump raped children.

Let Canada step up too. So many of us have had beautiful memories of time spent visiting Cuba, the beaches, the people, the many kindnesses extended to us. Let us support them too🇨🇦.

“They gave every white athlete a bus ticket. They told him Black runners didn’t qualify. So he walked 1,765 miles to prove them wrong.” In 1928, after winning the Rocky Mountain Olympic qualifier in the 5,000 meters, Kelley Dolphus Stroud was denied a bus ticket to the U.S.

A young girl uses scientific method to figure out why the noise from bathroom hand dryers hurt her and her friends’ ears so much. Brilliant work, Nora! Science matters💖

Nora Keegan was not trying to change public health policy. She was just paying attention. In elementary school in Calgary, she noticed something adults kept dismissing. Children rushing out of public restrooms. Hands clamped over their ears. Faces tense. Complaints whispered

You need to understand that Silicon Valley is increasingly being run by creepy, dead-eyed men who hate families, who hate kids, who have no respect for life, who would like to see much of humanity dead or enslaved. It’s our job to defeat the dystopia they’re so eager to build.

With the Lord of the Flies being newly released, it’s a good time to examine the creator’s assumptions about the human heart. And to see if there are other examples that tell a different story.

The BBC just released a new adaptation of Lord of the Flies, the classic novel by William Golding. It's beautifully made, but it's still telling the wrong story. A few years ago, I went looking for the *real* Lord of the Flies. I wanted to know: has it ever actually happened?

I’m not going to stay quiet on what’s going on in Alberta. Neither should Scott Moe. This is ugly politics — we need to call it out. This is not who we are.

Wow. “There will be more defections… nothing good is coming.” From one of the most astute & brilliant journalists ever in Canada @ChantalHbert. The Cons can ignore some blood loss but not when the heart starts failing. Lethal. It’s Poili-over. And send all MapleMAGAs with him.
