It’s disgusting that the Pentagon went from being run by a highly decorated 4-star General to a trashy tacky rapist drunkard buffoon from Fox Propaganda. That goes for everything Dept in the US Govt now. American democracy is in mortal danger and it’ll take decades to repair the damage.

I’m hearing rumors that thousands of people are calling the ICE tip line to report little green men and other aliens from outer space. That’s not why ICE set up this number, so you should absolutely NOT call that tip line to report those types of aliens. 👽 I repeat—do NOT call the below number! ☎️

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

Minnesota was just ranked the 5th best state for child wellbeing — here’s why: ✅ Free school meals ✅ Nation-leading Child Tax Credit ✅ Paid family and medical leave

Thou shalt not force good horses to trample peaceful protesters and pretend thou art the good guys.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Remember, SHUT THE FUCK UP!

It’s certainly a number greater than zero.

Insane scenes in Downtown Los Angeles as the cops open fire indiscriminately on people milling about. The cops shattered a business’s windows while firing on a live-streaming journalist. Keep this in mind when people talk about the protesters causing property destruction. 🎥 : AXN News on YouTube

BREAKING: LA solidarity protesters in Austin are occupying JJ Pickle Federal Building, which houses local ICE processing center

PSA: If you think a guy standing on a vandalized Waymo car with a Mexican flag is a bigger issue than the president calling for the arrest of a governor for no reason, you may have lost the plot.

Bernie, you rascal! You’re spot on here.

Thinking of a hero I knew and admired.

It’s a great day for rugby! Best of luck to the CRFC in Halifax. I’d be there but I’m busy trying to overthrow the patriarchy. 🌻

Budget bill needs more cuts! So, cut renewal/expansion of the pass-through deduction, which mainly enriches the 1%. Also cut renewal/enhancement of gift/estate exemption, which makes a $30M inheritance tax free. Cut grantor trusts—a tax-avoidance scam. Cap retirement subsidies for rich, etc.

Tonight at Holland College ’ACT BIG’ the panel discusses the effects of #BasicIncome on: The Arts, Agriculture, Poverty and Health…

Wow

It’s a really tough time to be a parent.

Perfect response to Sen. Joni Ernst carelessly saying ‘we all are going to die’ while trying to defend Medicaid cuts.

I endorse Hannah Bell for leader of the Green Party of PEI. She understands that a vibrant grassroots membership organization is at the heart of successful Green parties worldwide. I believe that she has the leadership skills to guide the Party to soar to new heights. Believe in better!

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

It’s been an absolute pleasure working with @hannahbethbell.bsky.social in the PEI-BWA, on provincial and federal campaigns and of course on housing. The PEI Rental Registry, which has helped so many, was Hannah’s idea and her unanimous motion but the PC’s ignored the vote. We got it done anyway ✅🏠

Also, research shows that when anti-violence shelters come to a region, the murder rate against women ticks down a tiny amount, but the murder rate of men by women falls off a cliff. When women have other ways out of a bad relationships, they take them. When they have no hope, they kill.

"When it comes to individual action on climate, most people talk about consumption, which car to buy etc. But thinking of ourselves as only consumers and not as citizens will only let oil and gas corporations continue to drill as our governments stand by the status quo." --- Tzeporah Berman

Climate change is here. Sometimes it’s tiny changes and other times it’s a river of mud. #climatecatastrophe

Some 1,300 Israeli academics have issued an open letter recognising the complicity of their academic institutions in the "horrifying litany" of crimes committed against Palestinians, and calling on academic leaders "to mobilize the full weight of Israeli academia to stop the Israeli war in Gaza”.

Nigel Farage wants attention for *saying* he’d scrap the 2-child benefit cap. But in the vote against it, did he show up? No. Zero Reform MPs voted against the cap in July. Green MPs put it in our costed manifesto, signed the motion, and voted to scrap it. Actions not words.

In a wealthy nation, Poverty is a political choice.

Third panel: A collective approach to Canadian Healthcare

Singing now

After lunch.

The culture component included a gallery tour yesterday and this wonderful performance at the harbour.

Day 2

Every nightmare in our lives is built on the animalistic need for the movement down, from [some of] the very well-educated. Use every tool, wreck the polity, leverage it down. $90M is not enough; $90B is not enough.

Super interesting. Happy to be at the Charlottetown Forum.

Very cool. #australianmade

Eileen Laubacher is a Navy Rear Admiral, served on Biden's National Security Council, and importantly, she's running against Lauren Boebert. Let's elevate Eileen Laubacher to ensure that she can reach as many Coloradans as possible ahead of November 2026. If you can, contribute here:

Hateful phoney Christians are the worst humans.

GOLDMAN: Will you give Abrego Garcia the due process the Supreme Court has required you to give him? NOEM: If he were to come back to this country, he would be immediately removed again G: How do you know? The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he hasn't been treated appropriately

Twelve hours into this @energycommerce.bsky.social debate, they’re saying the quiet parts out loud. Their plan is to “clean up the rolls” and rip healthcare away from millions of Americans. ⬇️
