Come on @cbsnews.com.

Trump is making American workers less safe. Nearly all of the remaining staff at the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health were laid off Friday, gutting programs ranging from approvals of new safety equipment to firefighter health.

Inquiring minds, especially ones that served four years on police commission, want to know.

Wow, Eric Adams is going to stop the plan to close Rikers? I'm shocked. If only someone had warned us back in 2018 that the next mayor could reverse course at a moment's notice, or that building jails was not the same as closing jails

LGBTQ youth are calling crisis hotlines in record numbers Fears have escalated with the Trump³⁴'s anti-LGBTQ actions and the release of his J6 goons onto our streets Image below has hotline numbers that can help We have to stick together. We must remain visible. We can not obey in advance

I trust that this claim of leadership extends to demanding that the state of Israel ends its blockade of humanitarian aid to Gaza immediately. Otherwise this claim of leadership is just words. #canpoli news.un.org/en/story/202...

“Treaties 6, 7 and 8, must remind Albertans and their leaders that the aforementioned Treaties predate Alberta.” Piikani Nation Chief Troy (Bossman) Knowlton has also entered the Bill 54 chat. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

“Treaty rights are not subject to popular vote, and cannot be reinterpreted or overridden by provincial legislation. We unequivocally reject any legislative mechanism that attempts to do so.” The Blackfoot Confederacy is also condemning Bill 54. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

“This Bill is not only abhorrent and irresponsible - it is a direct affront to the Treaty relationship between our Nation and the Crown.” Onion Lake Cree Nation also condemning Smith’s rewriting of democracy in Alberta! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Yup…

#Alberta please get involved here.

🚨 Cree Nations sent a letter to Danielle Smith requesting that she cease and desist enabling a referendum on sovereignty, which would breach signed treaties. #abpoli #cdnpoli

ok Canadian liberals now that you've won maybe recognize Palestine in June

No notes

Big loss in court for Kari Lake Judge Royce Lamberth orders administration to restore millions of $$ in funds to Radio Free Europe Judge: "When money has been appropriated by Congress.. Executive has no residual constitutional power to refuse to spend these appropriations"

We're gonna see attempted price controls, and with them, shortages. Of course, no one has done anything to create the bureaucracy necessary to prevent informal market pricing of these goods, which will absolutely happen.

Honestly, I frustratingly had a similar observation when I visited the Vatican and the Vatican museums in 2022. The new Pope needs to give people, communities, and nations their stuff back. The Vatican has multiple floors and multiple collections of Indigenous artifacts organized by continent.

This is alarming. For clarity (more detail in the post), the Alberta Law Foundation's funding is not from the government. When your lawyer asks you for a retainer up front, that money goes into trust, but the INTEREST on that money goes to the Foundation. Now the UCP is grabbing that money.

He's going to be a chapter in poli sci textbooks forever.

Tech bros only have one idea; dismantle labor forces. Capitalists in general think the primary function of labor is productivity & that the primary function of business is profit. But the primary function of any system we live under is creating food, safety & shelter. They undermine that.

Americans! Confused about how Canada's federal election is turning out? Wondering how it actually works up here? Grab your double-double, let's dive in.🧵

I’ve seen a few people acknowledge this but more who still use Substack. Someone I follow wrote how easy it was to migrate to Ghost. There are alternatives!

Alberta Medical Association calls for beefed-up immunization campaign this fall www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... #Alberta

If you haven’t voted yet and want to know where your polling station, you can call election’s Canada toll free number: 1-800-463-6868

Today, we commemorate and remember all those who lost their lives on the job this past year. Last year, we lost over 200 people in the workplace. Every single one of those deaths is a horrible tragedy.

BREAKING: Polls have yet to officially open but Walking Eagle News is projecting that a white male will be the next Prime Minister of Canada

With all sincerity, Elections Canada is a national treasure. - Voting typically takes less than 15 minutes - We make it easy for citizens to vote, without cumbersome registration hurdles - We have every reason to trust that ballots will be counted fairly, and results reported swiftly

Trump officials have admitted that economic sanctions don’t actually work. This admission confirms what many in sanctioned countries have known for years: sanctions fail at their stated goals, while inflicting enormous harm on civilians.

we're in the short period of freefall between fucking around and finding out

Pam Bondi says ICE agents can enter ANYBODY’S home without a warrant to find “illegals.” Baby girl fuck you. Grown men are NOT coming into my house looking for a goddamn thing. I’ll sue you bitches to the STRATOSPHERE Signed, Someone who already sued the Dept. of Corrections and won.

Something something Big Government blah blah blah

How and why our energy is best spent on building the world we want. ✨✨✨

It is too easy to rely on tropes of "terrorism" or "mental illness" to describe horrifying violence. Our communities need care & compassion & space to grieve, not speculations or stereotypes. Especially about mental health in a time when involuntary treatment & police checks are sanctioned & deadly.

yt extroverts who want empathy for loneliness & public space to meet needs (you want community btw, not public space) must have empathy for women (SH), Black ppl, neurodivergent ppl, immunocompromised ppl, introverts & ppl whose first language isn’t English…and how THEY experience public space.

The UCP is wanting to distract from their piles of disasters by coming for our Bike Lanes?? Bold move. Come out to this Town Hall hosted by @bikecalgary.bsky.social to get informed and organize with your community! #yycbike www.eventbrite.ca/e/bike-calga...

Pollievre’s housing plan is to give tax breaks for new built houses, not existing homes. I’m sorry but that is not going to solve the housing crisis. Won’t help people looking for affordable homes , and doesn’t address the insane costs of renting.

Fuck off, coloniser

Sitting in the ER at YYC South Health Campus; I’m observing an absolute disaster of resource management. UCP should be ashamed of themselves. Kudos to each and every hard working individual trying to offer their services and support under these circumstances. 🌺😷🏨🩺
