The Midterms: An Autopsy
In the 126 years since 1900, nearly 90 percent of the midterm elections have led to the party in the Oval Office losing House seats, and two-thirds of those same elections have led to it losing Senate seats. Given this history, midterm losses of some sort in 2026 were almost a sure bet. But what ensued in November went well beyond all normal expectations. When all the votes are tabulated, the current blue wave may match the massive midterm losses that buried Bill Clinton in 1994 and Barack Obama in 2010.
First, what does this massive 2026 slapdown now portend?
‘There’s zero’ for homeless veterans in Canada
Prime Minister Mark Carney spoke of compassion after the CFB Wainwright fire. “We stand in solidarity and compassion” with the wounded, he said, and in the House of Commons he pointed to the “acts of compassion that testify to the acts of service, selflessness and patriotism that our Armed Forces perform every day.”
“There can be a disconnect between compassion and bureaucracy when they bump into each other,” cautions retired Brig.-Gen. Alan Mulawyshyn. After 40 years in the Canadian Armed Forces — serving along the Iraq/Kuwait border, in Kosovo, and in Kandahar — he now heads Veterans’ House Canada, the non-profit that houses and supports homeless veterans.
Canada a “Cellar Dweller”
🚨 Sec. Scott Bessent is MIC DROPPING Canada PM Mark Carney! This man never misses.
"We’ve had a FREE RIDER problem with Canada. And PM Carney, after getting a verbal BEATDOWN from myself and Hegseth, said: ‘Stop throwing shade to get negotiations?’ Well, HE’S the one who said WE’RE AT WAR!"
"Canada had a great military. They were right there at the forefront on the beaches of D-Day, and what the Canadian government has done to the Canadian Armed Forces, if you look at the ranks of NATO spending, they are near the very BOTTOM, like they’re cellar dwellers around with Spain in terms of their military spending to GDP!"
"And why is that? Because they were free riding."
"The Canadian businesses are not with the Prime Minister, the Canadian military is not with the Prime Minister."
"And, you know, he thinks that he got to office on an anti-Trump, anti-Americans, the platform, and it’s not going to work out in the long term."

Trump Derangement Syndrome Has Been Replaced by Trump Fatigue Syndrome
The American electorate, in 2026, has experienced a tumultuous whitewater ride, to understate the case. Republicans or Democrats, or perhaps Independents most of all, are awakening to a hangover. History has examples of other substantial course changes — Noah’s Ark and the Johnstown Flood come to mind — but these causes and lessons are unique.
WTF?

‘NOT A BLANK CANVAS:’ CBC Kids poppy video sparks renewed online outrage
A resurfaced CBC Kids video about the Remembrance Day poppy has been taken down after sparking online outrage among Canadians.
The 2021 video, which CBC Kids kept up on its YouTube channel for five years until Tuesday, explains why Canadians wear poppies on Remembrance Day, along with the Royal Canadian Legion’s annual poppy drive to support veterans and their families.
Here is a CBC Kids broadcast segment originally published in 2021, promoting different coloured poppies during Remembrance Day because “some feel that the red poppy focuses too much on soldiers and can be perceived as glorifying war.”
The segment highlights the white poppy for civilians, a black poppy for African, Caribbean and Pacific Island communities, a purple poppy for animals and a rainbow poppy for “contributions the LGBTQ community has made to war efforts.”

Trump Won the War Against Iran. The Ceasefires Lost It

Iran was reportedly “a week away” from being able to threaten them with nuclear weapons.

CNN’s Van Jones Says White Mississippi Voters ‘Hated Orange More Than They Hated Black’
On Sunday, CBS’s 60 Minutes aired a pre-taped interview with President Trump, and on Monday, all of the broadcast news morning shows used it to go after the President and his new Chief of Staff, Stephen Miller. On Sunday night, CNN’s special, Midterms 2026, did much of the same, but during their focus on the immigration issue, an ugly accusation against white people was made by CNN’s Van Jones.
