When we got off the roller coaster, we ended up with a parliament that is very similar in overall composition to the one that came before it—a Liberal minority with…

It’s fair to say that Mark Carney’s 2021 book, Values: Building a Better World for All, was his early application to be prime minister. Values covers a wide swath of economic history and philosophy, and gives us some clues into what makes our new prime minister tick.

Musk is backing a vehemently anti-immigrant, far right party in Germany’s upcoming elections.

Elon Musk made a bit of an oopsie during his speech at Trump’s inauguration by letting the mask slip off entirely. He unambiguously made a “fascist salute” twice.
