In the span of a year, Mark Carney has morphed into a world leader willing to lay out a plan for small powers like Canada to collaborate and counter the economic might of the U.S. and China.
He has also surprised Canada as a smooth political operator. on.wsj.com/4crrclo

If we didn't have a maniac as secretary of defense, a toady as secretary of state, and a nobody as chief of staff, they'd be spending today making sure the military checks in with them before obeying any orders from Trump, and getting in touch w/ Congress to arrange impeachment.

President Trump has posted this picture on social media of himself as Christ healing the sick. I’ve long given up saying how hard it is to think of any previous US president who behaved like Donald Trump, but comparing himself to Jesus puts him on another level altogether.

Lots of weird takes on the Hungarian election result from both left and right here.
Peter Magyar is a socially conservative immigration restrictionist who wants to cut taxes and double the defence budget. He criticized Orban for admitting too many guest workers, and wants to increase Hungary's already generous pro-natal incentives.
On virtually every issue, his platform is well to the right of centre, by European standards.
His foreign policy is to end Orban's alliance with Putin, remove the Hungarian veto on EU loans to Ukraine, normalize relations with the European Union while opposing more Euro integration, and strengthen relations with Eastern Europe's anti-Russian governments, e.g. Poland.
His election was not a sudden shift to the left, but a rejection of Orban's corruption, the failure of his interventionist / statist economic policies, and the humiliation of his relationship with Putin.

Orban concedes defeat. The support of Trump, Vance, Putin, Lavrov, Weidel, Milei, Le Pen, Fico, Babis and many others could not overcome Hungarian anger at a stagnant, corrupt regime

Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert says recent Israeli strikes in Lebanon are "disgusting", including 100 attacks in the span of only ten minutes on Wednesday.
Olmert says while Hezbollah needs to be targeted to ensure the safety of Israel, the cost to civilian lives must also be minimised.

Wow. 16 for 16 on market moves. Truly incredible — either great instincts, sheer luck, or… door number three - insider trading. We all know the answer.
And the CFTC? Doing their best three monkeys impression: see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.
Corruption, now fully normalized under the Trump administration.

A Trump insider opened a $51,000,000 oil short position — hours before Trump announced a ceasefire with Iran. This guy is now 16 for 16. $170 million in profit. A perfect streak. This is not a talented trader. "We placed the bet." "The ceasefire dropped." "We cashed out." Sixteen times in a row. That is not skill. That is not instinct. That is not research. That is someone who knows what is coming before it comes. Think about what that actually means. A private individual is placing a $51 million bet that oil prices are about to collapse — hours before a sitting president announces a ceasefire that collapses oil prices. Not once. Sixteen times. Zero losses. There are only two explanations and both should terrify you. Either someone inside the White House — or with direct access to it — is leaking ceasefire negotiations to traders before diplomats, before the press, before the American people hear a single word. That is insider trading. That is corruption. That is a federal crime. Or the timing of the announcement itself is being shaped around the trade. Which is worse. This is not a genius investor who reads the news faster than you do. The news hadn't happened yet. He wasn't reading the news. He was getting a phone call. While Americans were watching the ceasefire announcement and feeling relieved — somebody already knew. Somebody had already bet $51 million on it. And somebody was already counting their winnings. You are not watching a free market. You are watching a White House with a side hustle. Via~ Really American

PM Jean Chretien holds the record. Nearly 10 Conservatives joined his Liberal party.
How rare is it for a Prime Minister to attract 5 floor-crossers in 5 months?
