“The US spent 8 decades building an international system of rules, norms and values that has produced the longest period of great power peace and global prosperity in human history.” Fareed Zakaria on how upending the world order will only weaken America: www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

This is the biggest scam in American history, Trump and Elon should be in prison.

My tribute on International Women's Day to women who know how to "stand the gaff" in resisting tyranny. From the coal mines of Cape Breton to the mines of the north. I come from a long line of strong women who would put the run on toxic bros. Please read. charlieangus.substack.com/p/on-interna...

The UK media are writing about the Canadian travel boycott to the United States. Trump continues to threaten and insult our nation. The boycott is our first trench line in what will be a long war against American tyranny. Keep the boycott strong. www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-...

KLUWE: “MAGA is profoundly corrupt, unmistakably anti-democracy, and, most importantly, MAGA is explicitly a Nazi movement. You may have replaced a swastika with a red hat, but that is what it is." @usatoday.com www.usatoday.com/story/sports...

💥💥💥WATCH THIS! “Only an idiot would think we should eliminate emergency response in a natural disaster, education and health care for disabled children, gang crime investigations, clean air and water programs …” — @jbpritzker.bsky.social

I repeat…

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Here's my latest reflection on a lesson I learned from a woman who was in the second tower on 9/11. When the world is turned upside down taking action is the only way to survive. Our democracy is under threat but politicians are still living in 2024. charlieangus.substack.com/p/no-return-...

The usual dance of “moderate” Republicans complaining about everything they just voted for when it affects them. Rinse, repeat.

Pretty damn good framing for Dems

The next Oval Office Presser with Musk and LilX 😂😂😂😂

The use of the boycott has a long and powerful tradition of taking on tyranny. The grassroots Canadian boycott against Trump is having a serious effect. And we've only just begun.. Please read on how we can use our dollars to resist the gangster in Washington. substack.com/@charlieangu...

Canada must defend the work of the International Criminal Court from the threat posed by the United States. What Trump and Netanyahu are pushing in Gaza represent crimes against humanity. There is nothing "Holy land" about this. This is Lebensraum. www.bbc.com/news/article...

"If the 'DOGE' endeavor is working, why can’t the White House just tell the truth about what it's doing?" www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Canadians need to keep voting with their dollars. Stay strong Canada. Keep the boycott going. www.ctvnews.ca/northern-ont...

It was the story that millions of boomers told ourselves in order to live: That our lifetime had been one of (flawed) progress for women, LGBTQ people, Black and Brown folks and many others, forged in the crucible of the 1960s It's come undone. What now? My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...

x.com/fareedzakari... Fareed has a way of breaking down complex issues into something I can understand. I’m trying to see if I can share this content on Blueskies.

Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social Let's get them more followers and engagement than other platforms and let health science accounts find a home

The present now Will later be past The order is rapidly fadin’ And the first one now Will later be last And the times they are a-changin’ 🎶 To watch the idealism of youth fading away is stunning, heartbreaking, demoralizing. Great piece from @willbunch.bsky.social
