Fitting for today’s cat fight.

ICYMI: A federal judge blocked the Trump administration’s plan to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education, a first step to reverse this war on knowledge and the undermining of broad-based opportunity. www.forbes.com/sites/alison...

‼️ DON’T THINK YOU’RE SAFE ‼️

The face you make when you realize you’re trapped in the room with a babbling buffoon.

Yesterday, 56 years to the day one of the best men to ever live, Fred Rogers, defended public broadcasting, his legacy was trampled by one of the most vile people to ever hold public office — Donald Trump.

Poilievre losing his seat is almost Shakespearean: Pretender to the throne riles countrymen with anger, gets defeated by guy with Joy in his name. It’s basically Macbeth.

One guy shows up in a blue suit to the Pope’s funeral. You will never guess who.

American exceptionalism for ALL THE WORLD to see. LOL! You stupid boob.

RGBAtlantica - Pierre Poilievre lied about a traffic accident at the N/Falls bridge and said it was a terrorist act in our HoC. He got that false information by listening to Fox News. He was also rude to this female reporter, again. #cdnpoli

Alberta's former CMOH is speaking out about measles & the importance of vaccinations. Free of UCP muzzling, the former top doctor points out the deadly disease is entirely preventable with vaccinations #abpoli #abhealth #yeg #yyc #yql #measles #cdnpoli calgary.citynews.ca/2025/04/24/a...

Harvard scientist Kseniia Petrova has been in ICE custody for about two months. Her colleague and friend Leon Peshkin says her case is causing some scientists to reconsider working in the U.S.

Raskin: We've got a guy who wants to act like a mob boss and use all of the resources of the taxpayers, all of the resources of the government in order to coerce people into doing his will

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

Liberal Party of Canada 🇨🇦 - Prime Minister Mark Carney 🇨🇦 will protect Canadian workers from President Trump’s tariffs. #cdnpoli

338 now has Libs winning 9 seats in Alberta (and nearly 40 across the West). That hasn't happened ... ever. #cdnpoli

CBC: "The post debate scrums were dominated by right-wing media groups who flooded leaders with questions unrelated to the [CBC moderated] debate" #cdnpoli

Poilievre says he won't attack a woman's right to choose. 56 of his hand-picked candidates are endorsed by Campaign for Life. #cdnpoli

Rand Paul: "We have to start from talking about the truth. One of the things they say with Canada is, 'Oh, there's a 270% tariffs on dairy products going from the US into Canada.' Well you know what the real tariffs is? Zero. That's a big difference between what the truth is."

It’s time your government got back in the business of building affordable homes.

Not sure who made this but it's content gold.

Just once, can somebody in the press please point out that the President does not actually have the legal authority to annex Greenland?

Anybody else annoyed with the Poilievre's smooching on camera? Totally inappropriate. #cdnpoli

X is not worth 33 billion. He basically just paid himself $33B from another company, presumably to pay off his debts from the initial buy because he knows he'll never be able to raise the capital from X itself. He is his own ponzi scheme.

Clark: We elected this so-called strongman who rolls over on his back for Putin and abandons our democratic ally in Ukraine. And we’re sending the vice president and his wife to a contained base in Greenland because the people of Greenland don’t want them outside of it. What are we doing?

Anti-vaxxers, listen up. Here is how your movement began. There is NO evidence linking vaccines to autism, which appears to be more common now only because we now recognize the symptoms more readily. Vaccines save lives. They are effective and safe. Please, please vaccinate your children.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: When we see people being pulled off the streets, when we see students at universities being grabbed, detained, and kidnapped, and when we see Kristi Noem filming this disgusting video, we’re looking at a nation we no longer recognize. We don’t want to be like that nation.
