Canada has a far-right extremism problem. In today’s episode, Evan Balgord from @antihate.ca joins me to expose one of Canada’s largest far-right groups and to talk about the global rise of the far right. Here’s a sneak peek:

Great job, MAGA

The NYC Bar Association says ICE agents wearing masks "appears to be an effort to evade accountability, and to decrease transparency in response to increasing allegations of government overreach, abuse of power, and violations of constitutional rights." Statement www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

If true, this is another step towards anarchy

I have no words. Anti-worker, anti-union, pro-child labor, anti-sick leave, anti-medical leave, anti-maternity/paternity leave, anti-livable wage… no wonder republicans refer to us as human capital stock. Fuck the oligarchs.

Time for a General Strike! “Two Week” Trump is trying to get rid of holidays for working class people. He’s cost the US economy trillions of dollars in losses in the last 6 months and financially ruined millions of hardworking families. #3E #generalstrike

Los Angeles Dodgers block ICE from setting up in stadium parking lot

Albertans already face the highest car insurance rates in the country, and Danielle Smith's solution is to raise premiums by 15%. She isn't listening to Albertans. Send her a message she can’t ignore: #VOTEforBETTER — Vote for Alberta’s New Democrats. Make a plan: albertandp.ca/vote

MAGA: Make Asbestos Great Again

Trump came to the G7 to promote Russia, undermine his allies, take shots at Canada. And then he went off to pour gasoline all over Netanyahu's latest act of political arson. My analysis of what we are facing. charlieangus.substack.com/p/trump-ligh...

ICE deports Florida pastor's wife even though judge issued stay of deportation order. She was denied her medication—shackled by wrist, stomach & ankles, leaving severe bruising. Daughters: "We paid everything they asked us, filled out forms, and not skipping anything.”

They shattered her car window. They cuffed her in front of her daughter. With no warrant. No charges. No evidence. No due process. We must demand Noemi’s release. #DisappearedInAmerica #AbductedByTrump

House Republicans passed the biggest health care cut in U.S. history. Senate Republicans’ response? Hold my beer. Now they’re pushing even deeper Medicaid cuts—knowing it’ll shut down rural hospitals, strip care from their own voters, and leave millions hanging.

Fuerza responds to scenes where alleged ICE enforcement is reported. If officers are indeed with ICE, they hit record and spread the word. They also speak directly with those being detained. They are part of a growing scrappy network of volunteers protecting neighbors from ICE. bit.ly/4lgke5N

The pardons he sold took money from the victims — from their pockets (and ours) right into his.

Dear Americans, some facts. youtu.be/9gWOFOtW24Q?...

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' *More of this, please*"

The destruction you are seeing in Ukraine, Gaza, and Tehran is all Trump’s fault. Either through malice or incompetence.

NEW: New York Attorney General Letitia James on the arrest of NYC mayoral candidate and comptroller Brad Lander. “This is profoundly unacceptable. Arresting Comptroller Lander for the simple act of standing up for immigrants and their civil rights is a shocking abuse of power.”

unbelievable performance by Tammy Bruce today as she dodges question after question

New York City’s comptroller Brad Lander, who is running for mayor, was detained Tuesday by ICE while observing immigration hearings in Manhattan, according to his campaign. wapo.st/4eccEXs

Masih Alinejad, an exiled Iranian journalist and one of the most vocal critics of the Islamic Republic, is calling out the insanity of Trump’s post urging people in Tehran to evacuate “immediately.”

The writings of a very insecure, little man

According to CBC, Canadian officials say they did NOT give Trump that US-Canada friendship pin he's wearing. They don't know how he got it. He showed up wearing it. #cdnpoli

Jay in Kyiv - Russian drones randomly targeting high-rise buildings full of sleeping families. Just mass murder by a regime now aligned with the US. #cdnpoli

Elizabeth Yao was chosen to be a valedictorian because she is a natural youth leader. She is being punished by the Ottawa school board for speaking up for her classmates concerned about the genocide in Gaza. Shame on the Ottawa Carleton School Board. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

First Nation leaders are in Ottawa calling out Mark Carney's Bill C-5 attack on Indigenous rights. C'mon Mark, is your first "nation-building" act to run roughshod through Indigenous territory for a pipeline? People voted for you to be the anti-MAGA MAPLE. Instead, you've stolen their playbook.

Kyiv underwent a massive Russian drone and missile terrorist attack, all targeting civilians throughout the night/morning. Several residential complexes were struck. Russia launches these attacks in the night to avoid air defences, maximize casualties, and to cause mass sleep deprivation torture.

Trump is alone, humiliated, surrounded by loser supporters, and extremely angry. This is when he'll be at his most dangerous and will do as much as possible to hurt America and the world.

A Canadian Indigenous leader who greeted world heads of state arriving for the Group of Seven summit says he was “filled with rage” and considered leaving before Donald Trump arrived — saying the U.S. president has “caused much pain and suffering in the world.”

He’s moving us toward what’s called a “police state.” Random abductions and detentions. Disappeared people. Federal troops on our streets. We won’t stand for it.

So much losing

Trump signed an agreement with the UK and bragged that he had a new trade agreement with the European Union, the UK is not in the EU.

In other words, it was a total failure and Trump is bailing because as a negotiator he is total dog shit despite the fact that his cultists think otherwise, so he will get back to the new war he’s gotten us into.

The felon is such a coward..And Carney hurt his feelings. #babytrump

Trade with China booming amid U.S. tariff war: Port of Montreal (Business)

Trump again takes Putin’s side at the G7 (and has his facts wrong)

we're getting cucked by Canada this is humiliating

Corruption continues unabated

Trump says mass deportations are urgent—but not if they mess with his donors’ pockets. ICE was told to back off farms & hotels 'cause it was bad for business. But LA and Chicago? Open season. Please be for real—this is the weaponization of government against cities that refuse to bow down to him.

The rantings of a lunatic

Tell me more about why we should be building bridges with Saudi Arabia, which is executing people for posting to Twitter? A good reminder that Jamal Khashoggi wasn't some errant one-off by rogue operatives. This is who Saudi Arabia is. cpj.org/2025/06/saud...
