The European Union embraces Canada.  Two-and-a-half historic minutes.  Imagine that: world leaders acting like responsible, dignified, serious people for the betterment of their citizens.

What a concept.

Sheldon Whitehouse on the Judiciary Committee.  Four devastating minutes.  Imagine that: a dignified, competent senator serious about the rule of law.

What a concept.

The view from Denmark.  Three heart-wrenching minutes.

Remember when we were the good guys?

AND NOW THE GOOD NEWS

Heather Cox Richardson: It feels like the MAGA movement is collapsing.

“The United States’ standing in the world has collapsed,” she says, “at the same time that the American economy that Donald Trump promised would so great is also in dire straits.”

Carl and millions like him believe Trump’s second term has proved wonderfully successful — as for Trump, it has been.  He’s made billions.

But millions more, who had high hopes when they reelected him, feel betrayed.

With any luck, they will join the huge blue wave — or at the very least, November 3, stay home.

We’re gonna win.
