As a Canadian I have to say it’s kinda surreal to log onto Bluesky and regularly be greeted by a wall of horrifying new updates from American users about their country’s descent into fascism

Is anybody missing two jets? I found two jets. I will leave them on the lawn until noon, otherwise they're going OBO on Facebook marketplace.

TANK vs TESLA "We've crushed fascism before and we'll crush it again" - ⁠WW2 veteran Ken, 98, in the tank

"The fact that the U.S. federal government is squawking in one loud, highly irritating voice… that it would like to obliterate the national sovereignty of our longtime friend and ally to the north is in and of itself a scandal." Commentary: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Pass it on…

here's today's post: "American president loses Canadian election" — Canada doesn’t want to be our hat. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter so you never miss a post —

Mister President, it’s time to congratulate Prime Minister Carney.

Canada, pls vote (sharing a post by the @liberalca.bsky.social)

Could you ever have imagined you would see a headline like this in your lifetime

Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum: “We are going to change the law to prohibit foreign governments from carrying out political and ideological propaganda in our country.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/22/w...

We need to talk about RFK Jr.’s recent comments on autism. He said: “These are kids who will never pay taxes. They’ll never hold a job. They’ll never play baseball. They’ll never write a poem. They’ll never go out on a date. Many of them will never use a toilet unassisted.”

OMG

Trump's attack on universities and students is a modern case of fascist book burning. Poilievre vows that if elected he too will target scientific research and cut funding to "woke" universities. Read my latest on the fascist playbook. charlieangus.substack.com/p/book-burne...

I’m a journalist. I cover the news — not make it. But when I see injustice, I act. 🇨🇦 U.S. tariffs are hurting Canadian small businesses. So I’m launching Made In Canada LIVE — a virtual event to spotlight them. Free to join. April 26. 👉 forms.gle/RVs7qTGA6LH1... #MadeInCanadaLIVE Full story ⬇️

If Trump invokes the Insurrection Act, the courts are unlikely to stop him. We wish there was some institution — businesses, media, law firms, universities, anything — that would save us. As with so much in this era, it will fall to the people to protect the republic.

Everything is breathtakingly stupid

Frost: They're the ones hoarding wealth beyond imagination. We have to tell people the reason you can't pay your rent has nothing to do with trans people. The reason you don't have healthcare has nothing to do with immigrants. It has to do with billionaires like Elon Musk.

No one is comparing Trump to former presidents like Reagan, Nixon or Jackson. Trump is being called a modern Nero. I am more partial to Commodus This is life in an age when the American political system jettisons the rule of law. Here is my latest. charlieangus.substack.com/p/american-c...

Think about it - how bad is Russia doing that Putin is meeting with literal nobody Witkoff?

Being trapped with obnoxious crowds on a floating petri dish is not something an introvert would do. www.cbsnews.com/news/cdc-cru...

I was a social security recipient from the age of 12 through 18. That’s not some weird thing or corruption. It’s called survivors’ benefits. You don’t have to know this. You’re blessed if you don’t. But if you’re going to speak publicly abt the program you need to know this.

Another AI-generated troll video from China. This time the MAGA-ville heads to the fields

“They were careless people…they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness…and let other people clean up the mess they had made…” -- F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby (April 10, 1925).

This has made my day.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

At this rate MAGA will only be able to afford to rent the libs.

Canada's own Neil Young. Keep on rocking in the free world Neil. #handsoff #elbowsup

Poilievre is obsessed with crowd sizes. Who does that remind you of?

A mother and her three children were snatched by ICE from a dairy farm in Sackets Harbor, a rural town in northern New York. But the location is no coincidence—Tom Homan, Trump’s border czar, LIVES THERE. He allowed his own neighbors, including a third grader, to be jailed. Deplorable.

Wait for it 😂 Supporter yells out “Lead us big daddy” 😂🍁💪🏻 #MarkCarney #FederalElection #Canada #cdnpoli #LiberalParty

CNBC's Steve Liesman doesn't mince words about the way the White House calculated its tariff rates: "Nobody ever heard of this formula. Nobody has ever used this formula. So I’m sorry, but the conclusion seems to be the president kind of made this up as he went along... these are off the charts."

The memes on tariffs are trending. Here is my favorite.

Don’t call them tariffs. Call them import taxes.

Welcome to "Liberation Day" when Donald Trump threatens, yet again, to drive the North American economy off the cliff. Here's my latest on Trump's attack on workers and family budgets. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Breaking: Trump’s National Security Advisor Michael Waltz and his team used their personal Gmail accounts for work, including to handle sensitive military positions and powerful weapons systems.

We are only three months into the Trump regime. We need to speak up. This is happening on our watch.

In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll introduce a podcaster and conspiracy theorist, Joe Rogan. He’s best-known for launching the biggest podcast in the world, promoting various conspiracy theories, his support for Donald Trump and his anti-Ukraine rhetoric. 1/22

Countries that have issued a travel advisory this year warning their citizens about visiting the United States: Canada Denmark Finland France Germany Ireland Netherlands New Zealand United Kingdom

But her emails...

The prime minister of Greenland calls a visit by the U.S. second lady and high level officials “highly aggressive”. Greenland and Denmark say they did not invite this U.S. delegation.

I hope to see folks at this townhall in Toronto tonight. I will be at the US consulate protest at 4PM.

We were told not to share this publicly, but last year was record-breaking—America’s national parks saw over 331 million visits.

Who is behind MAGA? Trump? Vance? Pierre? Dougie? Danielle? Moe? Certainly Elon, Vlad. But have you ever heard of Peter Theil? Probably not, but he is Bond villain in a volcano crazy+crazy rich. He wants to tear down democracy. And he’s paying for it. rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
