In a speech to the World Economic Forum, Mark Carney says middle powers such as Canada must accept that the rules-based international order is effectively dead, and great power rivalry with is here to stay. Key excerpt: - Reposted by Sam GallowayThis one guy and his mates were the source for a massive chunk of all that terrifying media coverage you read, and that’s been public knowledge since about 2021. It is IMO helpful for the more lib audience of Bluesky to hear about this, because you better believe standards have not improved since.

- Reposted by Sam GallowayThe more accurate observation for ICE and Border Patrol is not that they're military wannabes who couldn't hack it in the service, it's that they're military short-timers. Usually guys with low ambition and drive who didn't advance, and with an MOS that doesn't prepare them well for civilian jobs.
