I'm curious. What would you have Biden and his advisors do now and what could/should they have done?

It appears Trump supporters are rather forgetful, like their hero. Didn't Russia take the first step in annexing Ukraine's Crimean peninsula while he was president? Please explain why Putin wouldn't invade what's left of Ukraine under Trump, as the latter has hailed the former as a genius for...

It will become increasing difficult to send weapons to the Ukraine and risks a wider conflict. https://www.ft.com/content/38c1ee58-6bc0-4d47-a5f9-3f7021fb46ef

In 1968, when the Russians invaded Czechoslovakia to crush a rebellion, there was a famous bit of graffiti: "The Russians are staying until they find the person who invited them."

Careful what you wish for: https://www.macleans.ca/politics/who-is-candice-bergen-the-interim-conservative-leader/ - Anti-abortion, defund the CBC and apparently not opposed to gay conversion therapy. Imagine, for us mongers, if someday she becomes permanent leader of her party and PM and...

"On January 8, the Justice Department announced charges against 13 people in connection with the Capitol riot in federal district court; many more have been charged in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia.[30][31] The FBI and the Department of Justice were working to track down over...

Didn't he have the power to grant pardons to the "visitors" to the Capitol between Jan 7 and Jan 19 while he was still president?

Provide massive military aid to the Ukraine to increase the cost of invasion. Work out a deal to reassure the Russians who, after being invaded so often in the last couple of centuries, are worried about being encircled by unfriendly states (NATO alliance and China). The Cuban missile crisis...

The president never asked Pelosi for additional support as I answered in a previous result. Repeating a lie doesn't make it true. I'm pleased that at least you didn't echo the False Flag argument (The rioters were Democrats, FBI or members of the nebulous, ubiquitous Deep State). It was...

What insurrection? Trump referred to the mob which invaded the Capitol as a "loving crowd". Paul A. Gosar (R-Ariz.) called them "peaceful patriots". Rep. Andrew Clyde called it a normal tourist visit. Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.) wonders if they were even Trump supporters.

A typical Trumpian alternate fact: https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/mar/02/donald-trump/no-proof-trump-requested-10000-guard-troops-jan-6-/ It would be more damning if it was true. In that case, Trump cannot also deny being aware of the danger, yet deliberately riled up his...

Would it be irreverent to write that the Canadiens drove Carey to drink? Seriously, when Subban was gone for Weber, while it is arguable if the Habs were improved, but certainly they became less entertaining. The Leafs spent years losing, but given their commitment to offence, at least their...

Plutôt cinquantenaire

Thank you, I wasn't able to find this announcement of a change of goalie.

Does anybody have an idea why the line in the NYR-Edmonton game tonight has changed from Edmonton being a dog to a 1.28 favorite?

Au moins, les Canadiens n'entendront pas de huées ce soir.

No, but we can offer thoughts and prayers, remember that people kill people, not guns and realize that changing laws only affects honest, patriotic gun owners. I met someone recently who, after spending her first twenty years in Columbia and her next two in the US, emigrated to Canada as she...

I think that we should focus on the positive. On Friday night, Buffalo was only able to score a single short-handed goal while the Canadiens had a 4 minute power-play.

I didn't say that the Canadiens had nobody worth keeping, only that there was nobody who play on the first line of a winning team in the NHL (To be precise, I would have added "now"). Caulfield, according to the Canadiens' management, isn't good enough to play on the fourth line of his own team...

Which 5? Do the Canadiens even have a single player who would make the first line on any team with a winning record?
