Astonishing RFK Jr interview with NBC. At 23.30 he claims pharmaceuticals are the 3rd leading cause of death in the US [wtf]. He discloses the name & medical history of the 2nd child to die of measles, implies she wasn't healthy & argues about her cause of death. @gorskon.bsky.social

Canada, abortion is the canary in the coal mine. Restricting abortion is a tool of authoritarian regimes. Which party has the forced birth candidates? The conservatives! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Here’s another one. Three way vote split. Strong incumbent. This LPC candidate tanked the last 2 elections. The GPC guy won a byelection once and we all know byelections aren’t reality. Why TF are they recommending the LPC? Nanaimo hasn’t gone Liberal since 1940. 1940 FFS!

I laugh at people who think Pierre Poilievre would do a better job of handling Canada’s economy. He’s running against an accomplished economist with a PhD from Oxford.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

I think it’s great. Someone who gets the importance of a national broadcaster. Radio-Canada/CBC costs Canadians approximately $32-33 per yr (10 cents per day.) Peanuts! The average per capita public funding of public service broadcasters in other countries averages $78 per person annually.

I can’t begin to convey how emotionally draining, alienating, and soul-crushing it feels to endure bombings for the fourth year. To watch your city being destroyed, to see your people burning in their beds, while the world keeps turning—indifferent enough to let it happen. Or worse,

A reminder that Bill Maher has long been an antivaxxer and AIDS denier and helped mainstream the “do your own research” culture now dismantling public health. He is also a good friend of RFK Jr. It’s time for the media to stop giving him a platform. You are not entitled to your own facts.

When Trump spoke to Congress in 2017, few allowed themselves to wonder: if he loses in 2020, will he surrender power? Yet that was the most important question. As Trump returns in 2025, wonder: will he accept free and fair elections in 2026? www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
