For the past week, masked ICE agents have swept through Milwaukee and Waukesha. There have been at least 39 arrests since the weekend and reports of brutal intimidation tactics like boxing in vehicles, smashing car windows and drawing weapons.

Donald Trump can’t open the Strait of Hormuz, so instead he’s blocking the Strait of Detroit theglobeandmail.com/business/comme…

A really nice moment here. Bosnia and Herzegovina fans get caught up in the middle of Canada’s March to the Match. And they’re being met with high fives as they pass through the sea of red.

This gets worse. So not only did the US Navy fire two missiles and kill three Indian sailors they refused to rescue the 24 Indian crew despite saying they are on fire, the vessel is sinking and that they are an all Indian crew. The Omanis rescued them.

NEW Three Indian sailors are now confirmed dead after a U.S. strike on the commercial tanker MT Settebello off the coast of Oman. These were civilian seafarers, not combatants. 🧵

ZETEO: “A Marine who served with Graham Platner in Iraq and got matching tattoos: ‘No, we did not purposely get hateful fucking shit because we’re racist people. We got matching tattoos because we were in our 20s, drunk in Croatia, and that’s it.’” open.substack.com/pub/zeteo/p/pl…

I am deeply grateful for the overwhelming support, encouragement, and kind messages I have received from people around the world. Your solidarity has reminded me that football unites us beyond borders. Thank you to everyone.

Huge Canadian economic news: Canada posted a $2.7B trade surplus for April; the highest in 15 months (since the trade war). PM Carney just in the last week: 88K new jobs, $2.7B trade surplus; the man is doing his job in hyperdrive.

Mr. Artan would be welcomed and celebrated in British Columbia for what he’s overcome and where he is today. Let’s have him referee in Vancouver.

🔴 Énorme DINGUERIE encore des États-Unis... L'arbitre somalien Omar Artan 🇸🇴 s'est vu refuser son entrée aux États-Unis, alors qu'il est sensé officier pendant la Coupe du Monde ! 🙄 Malgré l'aide appuyée de l'ambassade somalienne de Nairobi, qui lui a fourni un PASSEPORT DIPLOMATIQUE, M. Artan a dû faire demi tour à son arrivée aux USA. On parle d'une personne qui a été élue MEILLEUR ARBITRE AFRICAIN EN 2025 ! 🤦‍♂️ (@Romain_Molina)

Trump to Wisconsin farmers: "Canada's been very rough" The administration that started an unprovoked trade war and tried to annex us dwells in an alternate reality where USA is the victim of vicious Canadian bullying.

BREAKING: O.M.G. The woman accusing Graham Platner of "intimidation" has been EXPOSED as a top Republican operative who has worked with his opponent, Susan Collins! This is EXACTLY what they did to Al Franken… On Thursday evening, the New York Times ran a story in which a woman, Lindsey Fifield, accused Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner of grabbing her by the arm, twisting her arm, and of standing in a doorway menacingly blocking her exit. The New York Times could not corroborate any of her accusations, but ran the story anyway, along with allegations from a few other women that Graham Platner could be unsettling, had dark thoughts, and generally had spooky vibes as a boyfriend. They also spoke to several other women who said he was a lovely boyfriend and they happily supported his candidacy. It’s now coming out that Lindsey Fifeld is a lifelong GOP operative who has worked with Platner’s Republican opponent, Susan Collins, and successfully persuaded her to vote in favor of Brett Kavanaugh, Trump’s Supreme Court justice who is an ACTUAL rapist. In one message to a friend, Fifeld wrote “I will personally go campaign for Collins.” Reporter Ryan Grim at Drop Site News reports that “In 2014, Fifield began work as digital director for American Action Network, a Republican Super PAC that oversees House races. The next year she became social media manager for the Heritage Foundation, where she stayed for the next seven years.” “In 2022, she joined the Super PAC backing Nikki Haley for president, switching to the official campaign side the next year, and staying until the campaign flamed out. She now lists herself as a visiting fellow at the Independent Women’s Forum, a prominent dark money group that is best known for helping usher Brett Kavanaugh on to the Supreme Court and giving Susan Collins the talking points she needed to make her decisive speech in his favor.“ “The NYT breezed past all this, saying she was ‘a Virginia conservative who has worked for right-leaning groups and Republican campaigns.’” “Meanwhile, the timeline Fifield gives of their relationship is confusing, because during at least some of that time she was actually dating a different person, her longterm boyfriend who became her fiancee before she called off the wedding in 2018. We all know this because she and [Zionist extremist Bethany] Mandel did a podcast episode on it that went mega-viral in Republican circles back then.” It should be noted as well that Lindsey Fifeld has a long history of making up baseless lies about Palestinians targeted by the Trump administration like Mahmoud Khalil and Rumeysa Ozturk. Folks, pardon our French, but this is *bullshit.* This is an abhorrent attempt to weaponize domestic violence and the mental trauma of dealing with PTSD in order to sink a leftist candidate who staunchly opposes the Israeli genocide of Gaza. Oh, and if that wasn't enough, the reporter on this article is Katie Gluek, an ardent Zionist whose parents are Israeli settler-occupiers in the West Bank. Platner’s campaign responded with “Let’s be very clear: This is a lifelong G.O.P. operative who’s dedicated her career to electing Republicans.” What else is there to say? Graham Platner is obviously a very imperfect person, but we are not electing him to be our boyfriend. He has been very open about his struggles with PTSD; he saw four of his squadmates killed in an IED explosion in Iraq. This smear campaign, based on uncorroborated allegations by a woman who literally said she would work for his opponent, is part of his punishment for being a progressive who isn’t afraid to stand against Israel, to stand against the health insurance behemoths, and to demand a better life for the American people. They managed to sink Al Franken like this. They will NOT succeed again!
