Good Morning! Accuweather is calling for some on and off precipitation with a thunder boomer or two here in the Niagara Peninsula region, then becoming partially sunny 🌤️ with a predicted high of 86° F in the afternoon.

_*It was wonderful to just be in the stillness of the early morning, sitting in my Green Space, sipping my coffee, and simply relaxing. I closed my eyes and let myself fly on the wings of pleasant memories of natural scenes from my past travels. This home is my last perch, or last stand,

_*Depending on how one perceives the potential outcome of events now in motion, which to me are as clearly seen as watching a documentary on TV, I can't understand why so many people are blinded to that potential ending, blinded by their own hate, aggression, mistrust, paranoia, and jealousy, whose result can only be a catastrophic mess. If that's what you envision, that's the way it will be. We reap what we sow, and what good can come from planting and living in things as dark and negative as hatred and paranoia? There will be nothing left in the world to look forward to, you lose hope, and then you wonder why you're wearing fur skins, sitting in a cave cooking a rat on a stick over a campfire, while your partner picks the fleas out of your hair. And that's on a good day!

Here I can sit and watch the rest of the world go about losing its head, kissing the Orange KInk Jabba the Hutt's diaper.

Weeell, so much for that one, I can only pray 🙏 the Greys 👽are still looking for another fat dumb human specimen "Fn Yo yo 🤹‍♂️!" to experiment on.

BUT BEWARE! THERE IS MORE THAN ONE WANNABE DICK-TATOR THAT WILL FOLLOW;

🔹AI Overview

Question: HOPE.

Hope is a Discipline - Pioneer Bible Translators. Hope is an optimistic state of mind that combines a desire for a certain outcome with the expectation or belief that it is attainable. It is a powerful human emotion that drives motivation, resilience, and the pursuit of future goals.

• Beyond the psychological and dictionary definition, "Hope" refers to several well-known subjects, LIKE:
• Religion & Philosophy
• Biblical Hope:

In a theological context, hope is often defined not as wishful thinking, but as a confident expectation and an unwavering certainty.

Question: What is HOPE?

🔹AI Overview

Hope:

Hope is the desire for a specific outcome paired with the belief or expectation that it is possible. It acts as a mental anchor and a powerful motivator, driving you to imagine and reach for a better future, even when facing current challenges

• How Hope Works:
• Hope vs. Optimism:
• Common Expressions & Idioms:

I quite agree with what most people are thinking right now: it's difficult to have hope in your heart while all else around you is falling apart at the seams. Well, sometimes you have to let the stuffing out and sort out all the other junk that doesn't belong in your stuffing, like screws, glass, and razor blades, then restuff the doll with GOOD STUFFING. Suppose you are that stuffed doll. In a human, we should be stuffed with what is GOOD STUFFING: caring, supportive, nurturing, what should be natural caring for one another, EMPATHY. That's how many survived the Great Depression. "I'll work your farm for a room and food!" I'll trade you my --- for your ---, etc., etc.

US inflation tops 4% for first time in three years as oil prices jump

Annual inflation rose to a three-year-high of 4.2% in May, underscoring how elevated energy prices are rippling through the US economy, according to new data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Prices rose 0.5% on a monthly basis, driven higher by the US-Israeli war with Iran, the latest Consumer Price Index shows. The higher cost of energy accounted for 60% of the monthly increase. Overall food prices and grocery prices didn’t rise as fast as they did in April, increasing 0.2% and 0.1%, respectively, versus 0.5% and 0.7%.

Economists were expecting prices to rise 0.5% from the month before and for the annual rate to accelerate to 4.2% from the 3.8% reported in April, according to FactSet estimates...

Bill Gates says meeting with Epstein was ‘grave error in judgment’ in House testimony

“If the time I spent with Epstein lent him any credibility, I am deeply sorry,” the billionaire wrote in his opening statement to the Oversight Committee.

Tech billionaire Bill Gates said he never witnessed or suspected that Jeffrey Epstein was committing crimes and that he did not reciprocate the sex offender’s attempts to build a personal relationship, according to his opening statement before the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday.

Gates, the co-founder of Microsoft and one of the richest people on Earth, is testifying before the panel as part of its investigation into Epstein. Gates was among several prominent individuals to appear in the Justice Department’s release of the Epstein files. Those documents show that Gates and Epstein met multiple times and that those close to Gates maintained a relationship with the sex offender.

Prime Minister Mark Carney says the Gordie Howe bridge connecting Ontario and Michigan might not open at the end of the week as he initially said, but insisted "there's no big drama."

"Everyone is working hard to make sure the bridge is open as soon as possible," Carney told reporters on the way into a caucus meeting on Parliament Hill. "If it takes a little longer, it'll take a little longer. This will benefit Canadians, Americans, businesses, tourists and residents for decades and decades to come," he said.

The comment comes a day after Carney said the long-planned Gordie Howe International Bridge held up by U.S. President Donald Trump would open by Friday.

Bank of Canada keeps key interest rate at 2.25% as it tries to balance competing economic risks

Central bank was largely expected to not change rate

The Bank of Canada held its key interest rate at 2.25 per cent on Wednesday, as the bank seeks to balance economic turbulence while keeping inflation from rising too much.

The decision marks the central bank's fifth consecutive rate hold, as a number of factors have complicated the economic picture. The central bank noted that the ongoing war in the Middle East, which has raised energy prices, has contributed to inflation, making life more expensive for Canadians.

Question: CNN America as a third-world country

AI Overview

The phrase "America as a third-world country" is a political talking point rather than an economic designation. It has been used in two primary contexts by CNN and political commentators:

•1. Presidential Critiques and Media Pushback

Former and current politicians, including President Donald Trump, have famously compared the U.S. to "third-world countries".

• Elections & Media: During a combative interview on NBC's Meet the Press, Trump abruptly left the broadcast after repeatedly asserting that U.S. elections are "crooked" and resemble those in the "third world". He also attacked CNN, ABC, and CBS during this exchange.
• Infrastructure: In 2017, Trump used the term to decry the state of American infrastructure. Political leaders across multiple administrations have levied similar criticisms, with figures like former Vice President Joe Biden previously comparing LaGuardia Airport to a third-world facility

 • 2. Domestic Poverty Reports CNN has reported on studies analyzing extreme poverty and inequality in the United States. For example, a report by the United Nations Special Rapporteur examined "shameful levels of poverty" across the U.S.

While the U.S. remains one of the world's most advanced economies, these comparisons serve to highlight domestic struggles with crumbling public infrastructure, political polarization, and wealth disparity. You can read full breakdowns and political analyses on CNN Politics

Hunter Biden is becoming a populist internet guy. I have questions.

The former president’s son is in his posting era. Does he know what he’s doing?

“I’m Hunter Biden. You’ve never actually heard from me,” posted the son of former President Joe Biden to X and Substack on May 19.

It was an unexpected proclamation from a long-controversial figure in Democratic politics, whose personal scandals, nepo baby tendencies and criminal conduct have long been the stuff of political culture wars and tabloid coverage — and even a factor in electoral outcomes. But Hunter Biden’s note marked the opening salvo of a deliberate bid to reinvent himself using the miraculous powers of the social Internet.

And at the moment, it’s strangely kind of working. Biden has been posting and replying to other people’s posts frequently, and getting a ton of engagement, thousands of reposts and vaguely positive media coverage for his commentary...

As a full-time single parent, Abdiweli Mohamed pours what little money he has into his two children. He gets by on provincial assistance, food banks, local charities and hand-me-downs from neighbours in Winnipeg, but money is always on his mind.

Mohamed, 36, had to stop working to care for his children, both under five years old, after separating from his wife two years ago. He worries about affording essentials like winter clothes, school supplies and dental appointments. He buys nothing for himself.

Mohamed, an immigrant from Somalia, once received monthly $1,236.50 payments through the Canada Child Benefit (CCB) because his wife, the children's mother, is a Canadian citizen. The benefit is a tax-free payment from the government to help eligible families with the cost of raising children under 18...

Another beautiful sunny day here at the Tree House Newsroom, which I am doing from my laptop in the kitchen next to the open sliding glass doors, that's as close as I can get to being outside. I would be if it weren't for the outside glare wiping out all visual on the laptop monitor.

I am late getting started again this morning. I had a rather shocking awakening that would be very close in description to a PTSD experience this morning. I was just quietly taking the coffee apparatus out of the dishwasher when there was a loud metallic BANG! 💥loud enough to create like an echo inside my head, that instantly made me think... EXPLOSION! I jumped back, hitting the back of both hands on the top of the door opening to the dishwasher.

Now I am sitting here with two bruised hands, feeling as shocked as anyone does after a close encounter with extinction. My extinction event was the action of gravity on the aluminum plate for the outdoor grill. Its balancing act on the kitchen counter was abruptly terminated, and it made one hell of a noise, like it was dropped on the countertop from the sky! I felt more disoriented than shocked. I spent the first hour getting my stuff back together sufficiently to get started over again.

I was like the defunct robot 🤖 that kept bouncing off the wall and repeating over and over: DOES NOT COMPUTE! Tube 94-B in conduit level 3, leading to port 26A, POPPED ITS TOP 💡💥⛑️ That is about all I have to report from the Newsroom at the moment.

Question: schizophrenic obsession

🔹AI Overview

Schizophrenia and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) have a significant overlap, with up to 25% of individuals with schizophrenia experiencing obsessive-compulsive symptoms (OCS). This co-occurrence—often called "schizo-obsessive disorder"—requires careful clinical differentiation, as obsessions can blur into the fixed, unshakeable beliefs characteristic of delusions.

Understanding how obsessions and schizophrenia connect requires looking at several clinical features.

Sagrada Família’s 144-year journey nears its end with the Tower of Jesus Christ

Barcelona, Spain — It’s inevitable — everyone looks up. When visitors arrive at Barcelona’s Sagrada Família, their eyes instinctively follow the

surreal twisting lines of the basilica’s sculptural towers until they reach the tip of each spire. Their gazes now extend higher than ever: More than 144 years after construction began, the world’s tallest church reached its final height of 566 feet upon the installation of its last major structural element, a cross atop the central Tower of Jesus Christ, in February.

Delayed by wars, politics and funding shortfalls, Sagrada Família’s imposing but unfinished presence has dominated Barcelona’s skyline for decades. Now, the long-awaited final tower is, at last, ready for its inauguration. On Wednesday, Pope Leo XIV — the 11th pontiff to reign since the project broke ground — will lead Solemn Mass and a ceremonial blessing...

CUSMA a blessing for some Canadian businesses, a pain for others despite escaping U.S. tariffs

Some small companies find tariffs 'less bitter pill' to swallow than CUSMA compliance, CFIB head says

A sigh of relief might have been expected when Canadian businesses learned the Trump administration's latest tariffs would spare companies that comply with the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA). But after scrambling to become CUSMA-certified in the face of last year's U.S. tariffs, some business owners say compliance has brought its own set of frustrations.

Ray Kanani, co-owner of Good Fortune Puzzle Co. in Ottawa, said brokerage fees that shippers are charging to certify CUSMA goods, and other complications around cross-border shipping, have forced his business to restrict where it sends its products...

Good morning, everyone! It's another beautiful, sunny Sunday morning, with an expected high of 80°F today. We had a good soaking last night, so no drought conditions yet. Actually, it was still pretty wet from the cold, cloudy spring we had. The swamps 🌾🫟🐸🌾 will do well for breeding mosquitoes 🦟 this year. If you have a moment, you may wish to pray and meditate for the folks out West, especially on Vancouver Island and in British Columbia, and the western Alberta area, who are already on forest fire alert 🌲🌳🔥 once more this summer season.

All that dry, dead fall from the last two forest fires makes excellent fuel for the next fire. Prime Minister Carney wants to find jobs for the people. I know that hiring a workforce to do the forest cleanup would be prohibitively expensive, especially to clear the dead, scorched, dry, deadfall. Opening up the burned areas so people can go in and cut down the burned deadfall for firewood would be one way to handle a good part of the problem. North of the border, everyone needs firewood.

I'm sure that would also keep the firewood businesses busy. I was in the firewood business myself when I lived on the res. Two Injuns and a chainsaw 😉 Cleaning up the forest floor and reseeding would make another good part of the solution. Well, that's about it for my daily Newsroom report.

Climate Change:

As I see it, all the changes in the usual patterns of rain, storms, hurricanes, and tornadoes are Mother Nature's response to air contamination. They are like air scubbers at work, cleaning out the bad air through a natural environmental change to relieve the disturbed elements. It's similar to getting a speck of dust in your eye; your eye will water and cry, turn red, and even become swollen and sore in the process of rejecting the foreign element in your eye.

Democrats can maintain their lead over Republicans on the economy if they don’t make this disastrous mistake

A bill that would raise the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation from $250,000 to $5 million is being wrongly promoted as a benefit to “Main Street.”

Going into November’s midterm elections, Democrats have put together a strong message that the prices of food, gas, healthcare, housing and utilities are too high and that Americans need to elect members of the party who take their financial struggles seriously. And that message has been working.

Since President Donald Trump was elected in 2024 and embarked upon a term that has unsettled even those of us who were expecting the worst, Democrats have consistently overperformed in special and off-year elections.

Just ask Mikie Sherill and Abigail Spanberger, the recently elected Democratic governors of New Jersey and Virginia, respectively. An April Fox News poll showed Democrats edging Republicans 52% to 48% on which party would better handle the economy. That was the first time Democrats have had an advantage on that question in 16 years.

**Aid cuts have slowed fight to contain Ebola in central Africa, doctors say**

*D.R.C. doctors forced to adapt as drop in funding limits testing, infrastructure*

Oxfam country director Dr. Maneji Mangundu recently returned from the epicentre of the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo. When asked how aid cutbacks affected the response, he didn't hesitate.

"The flow of funding is so slow into the country," he told CBC News from Kinshasa. "By now we would have have a lot of teams on the ground responding, doing contact tracing. But because of the limitation of the resources, it's difficult."

Mangundu compares the recent response to the Ebola outbreak of 2018, when he says the U.S. Agency for International Development, or USAID, rapidly sent a disaster support team that provided funding and support. "At the moment we don't have that," he said. "The mechanism is broken." ...
