Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney on Tuesday stated that he had had a "positive" conversation with President Donald Trump in the wake of a tense exchange that saw the American leader threatening to block the opening of a bridge between the two nations. Trump previously threatened to prevent the opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge that will connect Detroit, Mich., to Windsor, Ontario, The Hill reported. Carney confirmed that the pair had since "discussed the bridge" and characterized the conversation as "positive." He further added that "what is particularly important, of course, is the commerce and the tourism and the voyages of Canadians and Americans that will go across that bridge."...

Those of us who lived life on Earth before the internet and GPS have memories that today's young people will never have. Stopping at a gas station to pick up a local road map. Keeping a road atlas the size of a textbook under the passenger seat. The agony of having to try to refold a map in the clunky confines of your car.It's easy to forget what life was like before cell phones fit in your pocket and Google Maps took you from point A to point B in real-time. But Gen Z, whose oldest members haven't even reached 30 yet, has never lived that struggle, so they have no frame of reference for what their elders had to do to find their way around. One self-proclaimed Gen Zer named Aneisha took to social media to ask the question that has been burning on her mind–how did people travel before GPS? @aneishaaaaaaaaaaa I hope this reaches the right people, i want to know Aneisha asks in her video, "Okay, serious question. How did people get around before the GPS? Like, did you guys actually pull a map and like draw lines to your destination? But then how does that work when you're driving by yourself, trying to hold up the map and drive? I know it's Gen Z of me, but I kind of want to know."Even when most Millennials were starting to drive, they had some form of internet to download turn-by-turn directions, so it makes sense that the cohort between Gen Z and Gen X would direct Aneisha to Mapquest — a primitive early ancestor of Google Maps."We'd have to print step-by-step directions from MapQuest and hope for the best," one commenter wrote.It's true, you're not really a Millennial if you've never driven around with a stack of loose MapQuest pages floating around your car. If you were lucky, you had a passenger to read them off to you. "Drive half a mile and turn left on Elm Street!" It was a stressful time, for sure. God help you if the pages got mixed up or if you went off track somewhere. Even with a printed map and directions, there was no guidance for finding your way back to the proper route. - YouTube www.youtube.com But there was a time before imaginary tiny pirates lived inside of computer screens to point you in the right direction, and tales from those times are reserved for Gen X.MapQuest, by some standards, was an incredible luxury made possible by the internet. So the generation known for practically raising themselves chimed in, not only to sarcastically tell Millennials to sit down but to set the record straight on what travel was like before the invention of the internet. Someone clearly unamused by younger folks' suggestion shares, "The people saying MapQuest. There was a time before the internet kids."Others are a little more helpful, like one person who writes, "You mentally note landmarks, intersections. Pretty easy actually," they continue. "stop at a gas station, open map in the store, ($4.99), put it back (free).""Believe it or not, yes we did use maps back then. We look at it before we leave, then take small glances to see what exits to take," someone says, which leaves Aneisha in disbelief, replying, "That's crazy, I can't even read a map." Everyone had to know how to read a map. Photo credit: CanvaIt's a good idea to keep a local map in your car, even today! In case of emergency, you never know when it might come in handy. Learning how to read it, however, might take a little time for folks who didn't grow up using non-digital maps. (Many young people are confident in their ability to read maps based on their heavy GPS usage, but something tells me those skills won't translate to the big according-style paper maps.)Some users added that you could often call your destination (or friend or family member) and write down careful directions before you left. If you've ever visited a venue or business's website and seen general directions depending on which direction you're traveling from, you get the idea."Pulled over and asked the guy at the gas station," one person writes as another chimes in under the comment, "and then ask the guy down the street to make sure you told me right."Imagine being a gas station attendant in the '90s while also being directionally challenged. Was that part of the hiring process, memorizing directions for when customers came in angry or crying because they were lost? Not knowing where you were going before the invention of the internet was also a bit of a brain exercise laced with exposure therapy for those with anxiety. There were no cell phones, so if you were lost, no one who cared about you would know until you could find a payphone to check in. Imagine that! This car definitely had no GPS. Photo credit: CanvaThe world is so connected today that the idea of not being able to simply share your location with loved ones and "Ask Siri" when you've gotten turned around on your route seems dystopian.But in actuality, if you took a few teens from 1993 and plopped them into 2024, they'd think they were living in a sci-fi movie waiting for aliens to invade.Technology has made our lives infinitely easier and nearly unrecognizable from the future most could've imagined before the year 2000, so it's not Gen Z's fault that they're unaware of how the "before times" were. They're simply a product of their generation.Some would say that having a rough geographical understanding of your local area, aka being able to navigate around without GPS, is a lost art that kept our brains and wits sharper. On the other hand, using Google Maps even for simple trips to everyday stops helps us avoid accidents and traffic and give people our near-exact ETA. It also delivers crucial real-time information about wildfires, natural disasters, and more. Who's to say if one way is really better or worse?This article originally appeared two years ago.

What in the world was Jeffrey Epstein doing on the private island that he owned?  As I discussed yesterday, the latest batch of Epstein documents has raised a lot of very alarming questions.  In this article, I want to focus on one particular document from 2018.  It is a wire transfer request form that is dated June 12th that shows that six 55 gallon drums of sulphuric acid were purchased for Epstein’s private island.  Interestingly, June 12th was also the exact day when the FBI began investigating Epstein’s sex trafficking operation… Documents within the Epstein files appear to show that 330 gallons of sulphuric acid were purchased for the paedophile’s island on the day the FBI opened its investigation into the billionaire’s trafficking charges. According to a receipt and several email exchanges buried within the millions of files that were released on January 30, Epstein had six 55-gallon drums of the chemical delivered to Little St. James (LSJ) – his private island. The sulphuric acid was purchased for £4,373 on June 12, 2018, coinciding with the date the FBI opened a federal investigation into Epstein’s trafficking activities. That is an incredibly large amount of sulphuric acid. Is it just a coincidence that Epstein placed such a large order just as the FBI was starting to look into his abuse of very young girls? Sulphuric acid can be used to treat water, and some people are entirely convinced that Epstein was only using it for that purpose. But others are speculating that Epstein used sulphuric acid “to dissolve bodies”… The revelation about the sulphuric acid sparked wild speculation on social media as to what Epstein needed it for, including to ‘destroy evidence or even human remains’ – despite there being no evidence of criminal use. ‘One Epstein files email they requested 6 55 gallon drums of sulphuric acid, the only thing that is used for is to dissolve bodies,’ one social media user speculated. But further emails in the documents, dating back to 2013, suggest Epstein used sulphuric acid on the private island to purify water. I am not an expert on sulphuric acid, and so I decided to do some research. I discovered that 330 gallons of sulphuric acid could treat approximately 6 million gallons of water. Did Epstein and his elite friends really need that much water? On June 12th, 2018 perhaps Jeffrey Epstein felt a sudden urge to do some long-term stocking up for his private island. Or perhaps the fact that an FBI investigation was looming suddenly motivated him to destroy evidence. I think that it is important to note that when authorities ultimately raided his island they didn’t find much of importance. Thankfully, the latest release of the Epstein files contains more evidence than many of us originally anticipated. Members of Congress that just had an opportunity to review the unredacted versions of the documents that were just released are telling us that they have discovered at least six men that appear to be guilty of crimes… Two House members who led the effort to force the Justice Department to release more documents about accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein said they discovered at least six more suspected accomplices. The department began allowing lawmakers Feb. 9 to review millions of records that remain confidential. Reps. Thomas Massie, R-Kentucky, and Ro Khanna, D-California, said they found additional suspects among names that had remained blacked out in publicly released records. “What we want is the men who Jeffrey Epstein trafficked women to – we want those names published,” Massie told reporters. “In two hours, we found six men whose names have been redacted who are implicated in the way that the files are presented.” No matter how important they are, any men that were involved in abusing young girls need to go to prison. U.S. Representative Jamie Raskin is claiming that one document that he reviewed actually mentioned a 9-year-old girl… Representative Jamie Raskin, a Maryland Democrat who reviewed the unredacted materials, highlighted the youth of the victims: “You read through these files, and you read about 15-year-old girls, 14-year-old girls, 10-year-old girls. I saw a mention of a 9-year-old girl today. I mean, this is just preposterous and scandalous.” Such revelations underscore the depravity at the heart of Epstein’s operation, where minors were groomed and abused under the guise of massages and recruitment. Bipartisan frustration boils over the redactions, which lawmakers argue shield at least six men potentially incriminated in the scandal. Kentucky Republican Representative Thomas Massie, a key architect of the transparency law alongside California Democrat Ro Khanna, pointed to one redacted figure as “pretty high up in a foreign government.” It is time for the truth to come out. The American people deserve nothing less. And anyone that has been lying to us needs to be held accountable. Last October, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick claimed that he visited Epstein only a single time… In a New York Post podcast interview in October, Lutnick claimed he visited Epstein’s home in New York City only once, prior to the latter’s 2008 conviction for soliciting a prostitute and soliciting a minor. Lutnick said that he was so put off by “that disgusting person” that he had no contact with him after that. “That’s my story,” Lutnick added, “a one-and-absolutely-done.” That was a lie. According to documents included in the Justice Department’s latest legally mandated release of Epstein files, the largest batch to date, Lutnick regularly communicated with “that disgusting person” for years after Epstein’s 2008 conviction. He went into business with him. He even visited Epstein’s notorious island where many crimes allegedly took place. Lutnick should have known that the truth would eventually come out. The Epstein files show that Lutnick and Epstein actually had business dealings with one another as late as 2014… Lutnick previously said that he cut off contact with Epstein after 2005 — years before Epstein pleaded guilty in 2008 to a state-level charge of soliciting a minor for prostitution, which required him to register as a sex offender. But analyses of the latest batch of Epstein files released by the Department of Justice show Lutnick and Epstein were in communication years later. In December 2012, Epstein invited Lutnick to lunch on his private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands, the documents showed. The two men also had business dealings as recently as 2014, CBS News reported. There is no way that Lutnick can continue serving as Commerce Secretary after this. He must resign. Of even greater concern is what the Epstein files tell us about Reid Hoffman… This integrity contrasts sharply with Reid Hoffman, the LinkedIn co-founder and major Democrat donor. As we previously reported in our coverage of David Sacks’ exposé, Hoffman is mentioned over 2,600 times in the Epstein files. The records show a multiyear relationship, with Hoffman visiting Epstein’s infamous island, New York townhouse, and New Mexico ranch. They conducted deals together and referred to each other as “very good friends.” There aren’t too many individuals that can boast of achieving the trifecta of visiting Epstein’s home, island and ranch. So what was taking place during these visits? Were they discussing football? Were they going for bike rides? I think that Reid Hoffman needs to answer some very difficult questions. And I think that Les Wexner also needs to answer some very difficult questions. Wexner appears thousands of times in the Epstein files, and for some reason his name had been redacted on one particularly sensitive document… Rep. Thomas Massie on Monday revealed some of the names of people redacted by the DOJ in relation to torture and child sex trafficking cases, after looking at unredacted versions of the Epstein files at the Justice Department. Appearing on CNN’s The Source with Kaitlan Collins, Massie revealed former Victoria’s Secret CEO Les Wexner’s name had been inexplicably redacted, despite him being listed as a co-conspirator and not a victim. Just an hour earlier, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche had responded to Massie’s questions on X about redactions of Wexner’s name, explaining, “The document you cite has numerous victim names. We have just unredacted Les Wexner’s name from this document, but his name already appears in the files thousands of times. DOJ is hiding nothing.” In the early years, it appears that nobody was closer to Epstein than Wexner. Most people don’t know this, but Epstein’s super creepy home in New York was previously owned by Wexner… According to The Times, Epstein was an important part of Wexner’s world. Wexner gave Epstein power of attorney, which meant he could hire people, sign checks, buy and sell properties, and borrow money on Wexner’s behalf. Wexner also passed on several of his major assets to Epstein, including his Manhattan mansion, a private plane, and a luxury estate in Ohio, The Times said. The New York mansion, which is believed to be the largest private residence in Manhattan and was recently valued at $77 million by prosecutors, was bought by Wexner through one of his trusts for $13.2 million in 1989. Epstein later moved in after Wexner and his wife, Abigail, moved to Ohio, where L Brands’ headquarters are. A person with knowledge of Wexner’s finances told The Times that Epstein paid $20 million for the property, but there are no publicly filed documents that recorded the transaction. Why was Wexner so incredibly generous with Epstein? Nobody has ever been able to explain this. In many ways, Wexner helped to create Epstein. So why isn’t Wexner being looked at more closely? The more I dig into all of this, the more questions I have. Hopefully we will start to get some more answers during the weeks ahead, but I am sure that those that are actively trying to cover up the truth will continue to do so.

There isn’t. It’s because when you fast forward two to three years from now when companies like Figure and Anduril are are attempting to ramp production and compete with Unitree and DJI if there isn’t a readily available pool of manufacturing talent in the West then the world will default to ramping robotics production in China. And if you use iPhones as your lense then it’s mostly fine. They’ll export those robots and everyone is happy. But the difference is that robots build factories that build more robots. And robots build the fabs that produce the semiconductors that you need to train better models to run the robots. And robots can work the mines in Africa. And robots can produce the solar panels & nuclear reactors. And robots can more efficiently run farms. And of course robots can man your military. But even if you’re looking at it from a purely economic lens – China currently exports for three core lacking resources. Energy from the Middle East. Food from Brazil/US. Semiconductors from Taiwan. Therefore the economically rational thing to do is not to export the robots once it has reached escape velocity on its own domestically grown IP. Instead it is rational to redirect robot production towards directly attaining the resources it requires. Because David Ricardo & Adam Smith never accounted for infinitely adaptable robots when they established the specialization trade frameworks we all currently subscribe to. And because the gaiting factor for producing robots will be critical resources including steel – it is rational to throttle consumption by external parties that are attempting to also ramp production. In that world Chinas incentive is to sabotage the Wests production not enable it.   Trump Spurs Manufacturing Surge With Strongest Expansion In Years  President Trump’s already booming economy is poised to get another burst of momentum. Recently, the Institute for Supply Management calculated its January 2026 index at 52.6, which is its strongest reading since 2022. Since it is used to provide a snapshot of the manufacturing sector’s overall health, the metric is an important gauge of the labor market. The 52.6 reading from January is a pivotal rebound from last month’s reading, and its first expansionary print in 12 months – following 26 consecutive months of contraction from October 2022 to September of last year. The uptick to above 50 signals expansion of the manufacturing sector. The expansion is attributed to several key factors, including a resurgence of demand after the holidays, enhanced stockpiling by companies anticipating future tariffs, and extensions of pro-manufacturing incentives such as the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The latest figure for 2026 suggests that manufacturing will once again be a key contributor to Gross Domestic Product growth this quarter, adding potentially hundreds of thousands of new jobs to the national economy. The manufacturing boon under President Trump is just getting started.  The supply being rerouted back into the United States today will have multiplier effects long into the future.  The warehouses now being built will be tomorrow’s sources of raw goods, innovative technologies, and serve as the catalysts for reinvigorated domestic – and global – supply chains.  The United States figures to once again be the global industrial leader, a position fortified by emerging technology sectors.  This strength was made possible by President Trump’s pro-tariff and pro-worker policies, which overhauled the collective wisdom about market trends and economic possibilities for the twenty-first century. And we are still just at the beginning stages.  Elon Musk himself recently predicted that the next thirty-six months will be the greatest period in modern history for wealth creation.

For anyone with any level of objectivity whatsoever, the story is very clear. Not only were Trump and Epstein not buddies, they were enemies, and there was nobody Epstein feared more than Trump. Epstein was part of the Democrat elite and the Deep State brain trust that launched a coup against Trump. Anyone who thought otherwise never had any clue what they were talking about. If there was even the tiniest sliver of evidence that the Dems could use against Trump, they would have leaked it before Trump reached the bottom of the escalator. The reason the Dems/MSM didn’t bring up Epstein until the last second, is because they knew where this trail was going to end. The attempts to frame Trump were desperation and psychological projection. Epstein is, and always has been, a Democrat problem, and those of us who have been preaching this, are not guessing.

In a February 1, 2017 email, Epstein himself said Trump never even got a massage. Let that sink in. Then there’s the timing, Virginia Giuffre, who testified that Trump did nothing nefarious, “commits suicide”. Make of that what you will. And don’t forget the April 2, 2011 email between Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, where Trump is referred to as “the dog that hasn’t barked.” Funny way to describe someone who’s supposedly guilty. If Trump was involved, why do Epstein’s own words, key emails, and direct testimony keep pointing the other way?

The move follows a prolonged standoff with EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas and reportedly growing wariness over von der Leyen’s consolidation of power. Plans for a dedicated intelligence cell within the Commission were first announced in November and described as an effort to protect the EU from supposed hybrid threats from Russia. The unit was to operate across the bloc and report directly to the EC president. However, four officials told POLITICO that von der Leyen is scaling back the initiative, with the cell now likely to be downgraded to a security unit. This would leave most intelligence-sharing to the already existing EU foreign service center (INTCEN), which is overseen by Kallas.

The Republican National Committee (RNC) has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to clarify mail-in voting nationwide, requesting that ballots arriving after Election Day not be counted The filing challenges Mississippi’s law allowing ballots postmarked by Election Day to be counted if received within five business days. A lower court upheld the law, but a conservative appeals court struck it down, and Mississippi appealed. The RNC emphasizes the importance of a uniform federal election standard, noting that Election Day statutes “govern when States must close the ballot box, not when voters must make their selection,” and that an election is “the State’s public process of selecting officers,” which remains ongoing until all ballots are in the state’s custody. The brief cites historical Supreme Court precedent and Congress’s long-standing establishment of a federal election day. The filing frames extended ballot receipt deadlines as a modern variation, writing, “Most Americans remember a time when results came quickly after election day…One of those experiments is the prolonged receipt of mail ballots — three, five, fourteen, or even more days after election day.” It notes such deadlines can invite “the chaos and suspicions of impropriety that can ensue if thousands of absentee ballots flow in after election day and potentially flip the results of an election.” Oral arguments are scheduled for March, with the Court’s decision likely to set a precedent affecting how mail-in ballots are handled nationwide.

This should be common sense. pic.twitter.com/LjbjovzYqg — Coach Tommy Tuberville (@SenTuberville) February 9, 2026  Primary A valid U.S. passport. A form of photo ID issued consistent with the REAL ID Act of 2005 that explicitly indicates the applicant is a U.S. citizen (though in practice, most REAL IDs do not show citizenship and are available to noncitizens). A valid government-issued photo ID card from a federal, state, or Tribal government that shows the applicant’s place of birth was in the United States. An official U.S. military ID card, combined with a U.S. military record of service showing the applicant’s place of birth was in the United States. An American Indian Card issued by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) with the classification code “KIC” (specific to certain Kickapoo Tribe members). Secondary Forms (Require Photo ID Pairing)These must be paired with a valid government-issued photo ID (e.g., a driver’s license or other federal/state/Tribal ID that does not already qualify under the primary forms above): A certified birth certificate issued by a state, local government unit, or Tribal government, including the applicant’s full name, date of birth, place of birth (must be in the U.S.), issue date (within 1 year of birth), registration date, registrar’s signature, and an official seal.  An extract from a U.S. hospital Record of Birth created at the time of the applicant’s birth, indicating the place of birth was in the United States.  A final adoption decree showing the applicant’s name and that their place of birth was in the United States. A Consular Report of Birth Abroad of a U.S. Citizen or a certification of the applicant’s Report of Birth issued by the U.S. Department of State. A Naturalization Certificate or Certificate of Citizenship issued by the Secretary of Homeland Security (or any other federal document proving U.S. citizenship under the Immigration and Nationality Act). The bill also allows states to create alternative processes for applicants unable to provide the above, such as an attestation under penalty of perjury plus other evidence of citizenship, subject to election officials’ approval. If a married woman’s current identification  Potential Impacts and Requirements Registration Hurdles: The birth certificate must include the applicant’s “full name” to qualify as proof. A mismatch means it alone won’t suffice, potentially requiring her to provide supplementary documents like a marriage certificate, court-ordered name change decree, or other evidence linking the maiden name to the current name. States would need to establish alternative processes for such cases, which could involve an attestation under penalty of perjury plus supporting evidence, subject to election officials’ review. This might delay registration or require in-person visits to election offices, as mail or online options could be limited without in-person document presentation. To mitigate, affected individuals should: Update key documents like passports to match current names. Gather marriage certificates or court orders in advance. Contact local election offices for state-specific guidance, as implementations could vary. Monitor the bill’s status on Congress.gov, as amendments might address these concerns. Under this process: Applicants can submit additional documentation to the appropriate election official to clarify the discrepancy and establish U.S. citizenship. Acceptable additional evidence might include a marriage certificate, divorce decree, court-ordered name change document, or other official records linking the names (though the bill does not list specifics, leaving it to state implementation). The official reviews the evidence and makes a determination on citizenship eligibility for registration.   Passport Form: Completed Form DS-5504 (Application for a U.S. Passport Name Change, Data Correction, and Limited Passport Book Replacement).
