Avi Lewis just took the reins of a battered NDP, winning on the first ballot with 56.02% of the vote. It's the party's lowest point since the early 90s, thanks to Mark Carney's Liberals cleaning up in 2025. Lewis has $1.2 million in the bank and a mandate for a socialist pivot, but he's stepping into a massive internal rift. While some critics say the party spent too long propping up the Liberals, they often ignore the real-world wins like dental care. The big problem? Lewis doesn't even have a seat in the House yet.
A newly finalized 'Blanket' agreement allows Homeland Security sub-agencies to deploy Palantir's data-mining tools without individual public bidding processes. The deal secures a decade of vendor lock-in while a revolving door of federal officials moves from the DHS to Palantir's payroll.

ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan is technically off the hook, but his job still hangs in the balance. After a year on leave, a panel of judges cleared him of sexual misconduct after digging through 5,000 pages of evidence from a UN internal probe. Despite a unanimous finding that he didn't breach his duties, the court's governing body is still split on whether he should actually come back. It’s a messy situation: the court is currently weighing arrest warrants for top Israeli and Hamas officials, and questions remain about the unusually high legal bar used to clear Khan—not to mention the intense political pressure coming from donor states.

Donald Trump is heading into the 2026 midterms with a stagnant 36% approval rating, according to new Reuters/Ipsos data.

We're looking at the data behind the slump and how the administration’s current path is hitting the average American’s wallet.

By using passive language in Lebanon casualty headlines, Sky News shields military actors from accountability. We deconstruct the editorial choices keeping public sentiment aligned with defense interests.
