holy shit. Trump's "Executive Board of Peace" is being set up to replace/undermine the United Nations. It's not just about imposing the "20-point" plan on Gaza. It'll be to legitimize things like invading Venezuela and kidnapping Maduro - because obviously if they're making the rules, it's okay.

So when Carney accepts the invitation to be on the board, he - and probably a lot of the others accepting the invite - are looking to be part of this New World Order. Whatever qualms they say about Trump/fascism are of a lesser priority than ensuring they are part of the in-group, and not left out.

3/ Now they're reporting it will cost $1B for Carney to join Trump's New World Order executive board. Carney's reason for joining, of course, is "because it is important to have a seat at the table to shape this process from within." It's IMPORTANT to be a part of undermining the rules-based order

Canada must not do this. It is a mockery of international political governance, legitimizing the idea that Trump can simply push aside other countries' sovereignty. www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

4/ Here's Canada's PM Mark Carney on the hot seat about signing up to be one of the founding executives of Trump's New World Order. Will he pony up the $1 billion? He's unclear. Earlier article: "A Canadian government official clarified to POLITICO that Canada will not pay for a seat on the board"

5/ Mark Carney is trending #1 on Bsky right now. Because... he's saying the stuff out loud, that the much vaunted (while hypocritical) "rules-based international order" is over and isn't coming back. He is justifying his buy-in of Trump's New World Order exec board, to "change it from the inside".

7/ Dude just announced a day ago he's agreed in principle to be part of the executive board for Trump's New World Order, and (again see #4 ⬆️) isn't disputing the $1-billion sign up cost, but sure it is a breakup (?!). I think the nondescript word people use for this is "pragmatist" or something...

"This is the diplomatic equivalent of a wronged spouse telling their partner: No, I am not asking for a break or a trial separation. It’s time to move on."

He will not be paying to be on the board. He may provide some Gaza aid. Depending on how the funds will be used and allocated. That was his message. That is how adults talk.

Carney (paraphrase from actual reporting): 'Yeah Trump briefed me on the board a few weeks ago, and the $1bn cost. I said in principle, I'm on board. We'll work out the details later.' That is basically what he actually said. The way politicians talk? ... well you saw it in the skeet #4 video.
