The Liberals, headed by Trudeau, have not been doing so hot lately. Polls have been rather poor, showing the party far behind the Conservatives, and the Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland (an outspoken apologist for Ukrainian Nazis) resigned recently, with more MPs following her lead. Trump's return to power has shaken the Canadian establishment due to his threats to impose massive tariffs on Mexico and Canada, which will have substantial economic consequences given that Canada sends most of its exports to the US, compounding the economic malaise that has affected most of the world over the last few years.

With all this bad news, there are rumors and reports that Trudeau will soon resign, ending his nine years of rule. His fall would be yet another casualty in the wave of incumbent parties falling across the imperial core, only to be replaced by more conservative parties that have very similar policies but wish to cast all blame and hardship onto minorities.

Israel-Palestine Conflict

If you have evidence of Israeli crimes and atrocities that you wish to preserve, there is a thread here in which to do so.

Sources on the fighting in Palestine against Israel. In general, CW for footage of battles, explosions, dead people, and so on:

UNRWA reports on Israel's destruction and siege of Gaza and the West Bank.

Russia-Ukraine Conflict

Examples of Ukrainian Nazis and fascists
Examples of racism/euro-centrism during the Russia-Ukraine conflict

Sources:

Defense Politics Asia's youtube channel and their map. Their youtube channel has substantially diminished in quality but the map is still useful.
Moon of Alabama, which tends to have interesting analysis. Avoid the comment section.
Understanding War and the Saker: reactionary sources that have occasional insights on the war.
Alexander Mercouris, who does daily videos on the conflict. While he is a reactionary and surrounds himself with likeminded people, his daily update videos are relatively brainworm-free and good if you don't want to follow Russian telegram channels to get news. He also co-hosts The Duran, which is more explicitly conservative, racist, sexist, transphobic, anti-communist, etc when guests are invited on, but is just about tolerable when it's just the two of them if you want a little more analysis.
Simplicius, who publishes on Substack. Like others, his political analysis should be soundly ignored, but his knowledge of weaponry and military strategy is generally quite good.
On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent and very good journalist reporting in the warzone on the separatists' side.

Unedited videos of Russian/Ukrainian press conferences and speeches.

Again, CW for anti-LGBT and racist, sexist, etc speech, as well as combat footage.

https://t.me/mod_russia_en ~ Russian Ministry of Defense. Does daily, if rather bland updates on the number of Ukrainians killed, etc. The figures appear to be approximately accurate; if you want, reduce all numbers by 25% as a 'propaganda tax', if you don't believe them. Does not cover everything, for obvious reasons, and virtually never details Russian losses.

    Trump Team Claims New York Court Order Violates Supreme Court Immunity Ruling - Telesur English

    Article

    The communications team for President-elect Donald Trump has expressed strong opposition to a New York court order requiring the former president to appear for sentencing on January 10. They argue that this order violates a Supreme Court ruling regarding presidential immunity. Steven Cheung, Trump’s communications director, stated on Friday that the court’s directive represents a “direct violation of the Supreme Court’s immunity ruling and longstanding jurisprudence.”

    Cheung characterized the case as “illegal,” asserting that it should never have been brought forward and claiming that “the Constitution demands it be dismissed immediately.” He emphasized that Trump should be allowed to continue with the presidential transition and fulfill essential duties without being hindered by what he described as remnants of a “witch hunt” against him.

    Earlier on Friday, a New York state court determined that there was no basis to dismiss the hush-money case involving the former president, ordering him to appear for sentencing on January 10. This development adds another layer of complexity to Trump’s legal challenges as he prepares for his upcoming term in office.

    As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen how these legal proceedings will impact Trump’s presidency and his ability to navigate both political and judicial landscapes during this critical transition period. The ongoing legal battles highlight the contentious relationship between Trump and various judicial entities, raising questions about accountability and the rule of law in American politics.
