2026/08/29

Trump’s latest bid to have his hush money conviction tossed by federal court—based on presidential immunity—was rejected again, with Judge Hellerstein slamming the move as a delayed, strategic play that cost them their shot. After being found guilty on 34 felony counts for hiding payments to Stormy Daniels, Trump now faces a stalled appeal in state court, while Hellerstein called his legal team’s tactics “taking two bites at the apple” and ruled they can’t get a do-over.

2026/08/29

Donald Trump’s bizarre attempt to rename Lake Ontario to “Lake America” has sparked laughter, not outrage, in Kingston, Ontario. Mayor Bryan Paterson called it “utterly ridiculous,” noting the lake’s name—derived from a 400-year-old Wendat word meaning “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”—is deeply rooted in history and identity. Prime Minister Mark Carney confirmed no name change for Canadians, while the Wendat Nation sees the move as an erasure of their heritage. Locals, who live, swim,

2026/08/28

Nova Scotia’s hip and knee replacement wait times have hit a decade-long high, with patients now facing over 290 days from referral to surgery—up from 265 days in 2015. While hospital efficiency has trimmed the time between consultation and procedure, the real bottleneck is the initial appointment: some wait more than 500 days just to see a surgeon, causing severe physical decline and emotional distress. The median consultation wait alone has nearly doubled, from 92 to 189 days, undoing gains
