If Hegseth drunk deploys Marines against Californians, then: 1) it’s literally civil war, and 2) the USA is legitimately the enemy. Incredible but true.

Watch this and pass it on. This is state thuggery, call them the Stasi, the Gestapo, NKVD--this is what dictators do. It's horrifying to hear this story.

Don’t overlook the White supremacy. Immigrants are **everywhere**, but Trump raided a Latino neighbourhood.

Half the time, watching the news, you think: “F*** Americans.” And the other half, it’s more like: “Fuuuuuuck, Americans.”

This alone is going to cost the Republicans the House next year. You can’t fuck over Californians like this and keep the SoCal seats.

Masterstroke to destroy Republican support in SoCal. Los Angelinos will hate this.

Carney’s single-mindedly a macroeconomist. It will take him time to learn, probably the hard way, that a dollar’s not everything in politics.

When Israel is systemically starving Palestinian children, it’s hard to condemn those Palestinians who want to destroy Israel.

Why doesn’t Carney also invite the Saudis and take them bone saw shopping while he’s at it?

Carney’s One Canadian Economy bill is in serious trouble because AFN and First Nations are going to fight it. They’re right. Because why should there be national projects before there is national recognition of UNDRIP rights? Nine of 10 provinces refuse.

This is bad. Carney's new bill can be used to eliminate environmental assessment for projects of national interest. Indigenous Peoples are probably going to sue over that.

What projects will the federal government fast-track? Here are the criteria in Bill C-5. Oil pipelines deservedly are dead.

We Canadians need to take advantage of the American meltdown. Science is power. Science is prosperity. And it should belong to Canada.

The Santa Ono controversy has been very ironic considering that seven years ago UBC's student newspaper did an entire issue spoofing him when he was UBC's president as a vain people pleaser who would say whatever was necessary to make a controversial issue go away

This isn’t hard: Russia dual-used its nuclear bombers to attack Ukraine, so Ukraine was perfectly right to destroy those bombers. Russia can now shut up about retaliating with nuclear weapons.

I was a witness to Nili’s harassment and can vouch: OCDSB treated her appallingly, none more so that some of her fellow trustees.
