Trump said Friday that the Strait of Hormuz situation was "over." It very obviously wasn't. Trump said Friday that Iran agreed "to never close the Strait of Hormuz again.” The next day, Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz again. Trump said yesterday that Vance isn't going to Pakistan for the talks. Officials quickly said Vance is going to Pakistan for the talks. Trump said this morning that Vance had left and would be there tonight Islamabad time. Officials quickly said Vance is actually leaving tomorrow. Trump said Iran has no military anymore and that "everything's gone." Iran continues to have a military with destructive capabilities. Trump said the pope issued a statement saying Iran can have a nuclear weapon. That never happened.   Trump said nobody expected Iran to retaliate against Gulf countries. That was widely expected. Trump said the only planes the US has really lost in the war have been to friendly fire. He said this at the same event at which he had spoken at length about what happened after Iran shot down a US plane. Story on the president's ever-growing number of false claims on big and small matters related to the war – and his triumphant claims about supposed Iranian concessions that we just can't assume are based in reality: cnn.com/2026/04/20/pol…

Make that ALL phone records.

$580,000,000 in oil futures moved 16 minutes before Trump announced a pause in Iran strikes. Not after. Before. The BBC just documented five separate instances of massive, suspiciously timed trades preceding Trump’s biggest market-moving announcements — oil futures, the tariff pause, Maduro’s capture, Iran ceasefire bets. The platforms where anonymous accounts cashed in? Polymarket and Kalshi. Donald Trump Jr. sits on Polymarket’s advisory board and is a strategic advisor to Kalshi. There’s even a law against this. The STOCK Act (2012) explicitly covers executive branch officials. Zero prosecutions in 14 years. Oh, and the DOJ unit created after Watergate to prosecute exactly this kind of corruption? Trump cut it from 36 lawyers to 2 and stripped its authority to file new cases.

This morning, I called for a vote: Doug Ford should personally cover any losses from buying and reselling his $30M gravy plane. The purchase. The outfitting. The resale. All of it. Spoiler: The Conservatives blocked it.

Doug Ford’s new shady retroactive changes to FOI laws would let him and his cabinet dodge transparency and accountability. I have to ask the question… What is the Premier hiding on his cellphone? Ontarians deserve accountability. #onpoli cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Imagine thinking that a provincial Premier wouldn’t be scrutinized more than other people! Not only is Ford corrupt, he is overly whiny as well.

I’m sorry but the corruption in Ontario is an absurdity at this point. The fact that so many Ontario voters will remember Rae Days and Kathleen Wynne until they die while turning a blind eye to Ford’s blatant, repeated, documented mismanagement of funds is fucking cartoonish

BREAKING: BBC alleges that the Trump admin may be engaging in insider trading.

We're not watching a war take place. We're watching stock market manipulation for personal gain.

Ford government to bypass public hearings on freedom-of-information clampdown cp24.com/politics/queen…

Can we please raise as much hell about FOI now? Show us the mandate letters and phone records!

#BREAKING: Doug Ford backs off government plane purchase, seeks to sell aircraft cp24.com/local/toronto/…

@CP24 @WesMantooth21 Which will now sell at a loss, what an absolute embarrassment he is

What is Yesavage doing in the Arizona crowd?! #bluejays50

He wants to be able to fly from Billy Bishop to his cottage and skip the 400 traffic and also fly to Florida.

VAN HOLLEN: When you were in the House, you said Biden needed to make clear that 'Putin is an absolute war criminal.' Do you stand by your statement? MIKE WALTZ: Statements that I made as a member of Congress are very different than what I make now working for President Trump. I support President Trump is everything he is doing

Tina got fired. She was suggesting that a few billion dollars of taxpayer money could have gone "missing" and wound up in some dodgy investments. My own review of her work and a look at the "bailouts" occurring in the TO real estate market suggest she was onto something. Something - as in billions. @TinaYazdani

@soigomaa For washing hair, that is.

@soigomaa After many conversations with friends, this seems divided along gender lines. Women tend to place their backs to the shower head, while men (inexplicably!) face forward.

I just saw that showering backwards is a sign of neurodivergence I thought everyone showered with their back toward the shower head. That's not a thing? I was today years old when I learned there are people who actually stand facing the shower.Never once in my life had it occurred to me that apparently it's not normal to stand with your back facing the shower? That's how I've done it my whole life.
