It’s wild to me that there are still people out there saying “they won’t/can’t do that because it’s against the law.” Have you been in a coma for the last five months or…

My father, uncle, and father-in-law were US Marines who fought fascist overreach in the South Pacific in World War 2. I know if they were alive today, they would object to sending Marines to enable fascist overreach in Los Angeles by Trump, Miller, Hegseth, Noem, and Homan today. Semper Fi.

What is happening in Los Angeles is not a distraction from Trump’s Billionaire Bailout Bill. The bill explicitly gives ICE and DHS the resources needed to do around the country what they’re doing in LA. We should call that out.

So I’m learning that big powerful empires can get taken down by a combination of poor governance, changing climate, and vulnerability to emerging infectious diseases. Obviously this was all a long time ago so not really relevant to us

The agenda of mass deportations is deeply anti-worker. One in five workers in America is an immigrant. They’re vital to the fabric of our communities. The real threat workers face is corporate greed, not immigrants.

chinga la migra May the spirit of rebellion grow & multiply!! I absolutely reject the logic that comrades are ever responsible for any increased state repression. We are living in fascist time, they don't need "excuses." Be ungovernable, maintain solidarity, & keep tactical differences internal

It’s clear: the strategic vote in New Westminster–Burnaby–Maillardville is NDP — to stop Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives and defend what matters most to us. 🧡🗳️ Visit: www.progressivevote.ca, for more information. #NDP #Elxn45 #cdnpoli

Chantal Hebert nails it, True North & Rebel are third party advertisers in this election campaign. They are NOT accredited media. She also points out the time change and dropping the Greens at last minute. #cdnpoli

Let me know if I have this right, right wing advocates took up much of the time last night and prevented much of the post-debate questioning from mainstream reporters. Tonight they disrupted the post-debate question time, so no mainstream reporters could ask questions. #cdnpoli #canpoli

My PhD is in economic & social history and every part of that field has written whole volumes on why this will hurt a lot if people and cause needless pain and suffering. Buckle up, it is Great Depression time. Modern economics cannot function in such an environment. #EconSky

@ctvyourmorning.bsky.social I hope you recognize the extent to which this was a very bad decision. While the right-wing nut jobs who target @rachelgilmore.bsky.social might celebrate this, they are a “fringe minority”. The rest of us now question your trustworthiness. #cdnpoli #cdnmedia #Democracy

The US once led the world in attracting global talent—students, artists, scientists. Now they are fleeing to places like Canada. Thanks to Trump, the US is not only losing brilliant individuals but its economic and social future. A brain drain is coming and it will hurt the US for generations.🧵

Very curious why a backbencher Liberal MP felt it appropriate to go on CNN after Ford today to speak for Canada. From what I know of how Ottawa works I’m about 98% sure he didn’t ask, let alone get permission, to speak from leadership. Honestly… made us look so sloppy as a country #cdnpoli

As a non-partisan independent Senator, I’m proud to stand with the 90% of Albertans who oppose joining Trump’s USA, and with the vast vast majority of Albertans who are fiercely proud to be Canadian. Especially at this moment. This is no time to incite & encourage separatist nonsense. #ableg #abpoli

The consumer carbon tax is not working. It’s become too divisive — at a time when Canada needs to be united. As my government’s first order of business, I have cancelled it.

Kinda ❤️ David Common’s low-key shade re Rosie Barton’s disrespect on any not-white name “I’ll get it right one day” - Rosie 🤪 “It’s Gary Anandasangaree” - David 🧐 “How can you always get it? ” - Rosie 🤣 awkward pause while everyone thinks “because it’s 2025” 🤨 #CDNpoli

The cavern between 🇺🇸 & 🇨🇦 political culture on full display today. Swears an oath to our Inuit GG, following a teaching on leadership (responsibility NOT power) by Anishinabeg Elder while a Quilliq burns Not because it’s “woke”, but because it’s the right thing to do #TRC #Canada
