This is some sick shit

“Wrongly” is how Trump’s own administration characterized it.

Marco Rubio is now acknowledging that it might not be possible for Trump to end Russia's war on Ukraine (Trump promised to end it before he took office!)

Let me thank my Senate colleague @vanhollen.senate.gov for his trip to visit Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Mr. Abrego Garcia was wrongfully imprisoned. As the Supreme Court indicated, there was no basis for his warrantless arrest. The Trump admin must obey the law. He must be returned home.

It's time to vote for Mark Carney

The cancellation of the post debate press event due to security issues is a result of Pierre Poilievre's rage farming of over 20 years. He succeeded once again in shutting down the media and hopefully it leads to Canadians shutting down his career. Once and for all. You reap what you sow. #cdnpoli

All day long yesterday, the MAGA dipshits on Elon Musk’s platform were screeching that the FSU shooter was a far-left LGBT Palestinian sympathizer antifa liberal prog. Huh. Weird. nypost.com/2025/04/18/u...

Poilievre was just asked twice in a row about whether the Leaders Debates Commission should be abolished. His answer was, roughly, you wanna talk about the debate? The debate is whether you want to give the Liberals a fourth term!! That wasn’t the question.

Prime Minister Mark Carney 🇨🇦 This is one of the most consequential elections in my lifetime — because it’s about who is going to stand up for Canada. #cdnpoli

Project 2025 was the roadmap for DOGE and the destruction of a non-partisan civil service. Conservative insiders are bragging that enacting DOGE NORTH would be even easier in Canada. Trashing the public service is key for the fascist playbook. Please read my latest. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Popok: This is not just about Abrego Garcia—and they’re right. It’s not about whether he is or isn’t MS-13. This is about the rule of law and our co-equal branches of government. This is about greater principles.

Mark Carney will make Canada the world’s leading energy superpower. Here’s how: #Debate2025

Very very important read. A startup backed by the paypal mafia and the Kushner is set to get a contract to privatize the entire internal govt credit card system. No compete sweetheart deal. Justified by bogus claims abt fraud. Pure corruption. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

As reported by the CBC, the fake journalists that support Poilievre on the right accosted real journalists inside the #debate2025 room and made such a scene that the post-debate scrum had to be cancelled for security reasons. It says a lot about Canada's loony right wing and their enablers. #cdnpoli

Two weeks ago Nutlick had us all doing robot maintenance. Last week he had us all screwing stuff into iPhones. But now we are going to be catching fish in Samoa instead. bsky.app/profile/atru...

RFK Jr.’s lies about autism are disgraceful — and I won't share them to spread misinformation. He consistently undermines public health and reinforces dangerous myths. In Illinois, we stand with those with autism, and I’ll keep fighting for inclusion, science, and the truth.

An amazing video about Ukrainian women and their strength. Repost if you still stand with Ukraine! youtu.be/ZFkuLfA9E_c

Legit the best thing any Dem has done to date in response to Trump and it happened because he cared more about serving his constituents than public polling about immigration.

Goldman: "Think about whether any of us want to vote a certain way but bc we fear for our personal safety, we decide to vote differently. We are no longer representing our constituents. We are representing something else more like the bully threatening us. That is more like Vladimir Putin operates"

Rebel Media commander Ezra Levant has filed the necessary paperwork to “fight against (Liberal leader Mark Carney) directly” and run a fully authorized third-party advertising campaign. Rebel Media is behind Poilievre.

Looking forward to the Trump DOJ trying to explain to Judge Xinis how the United States remains totally powerless to do anything about Abrego Garcia’s continuing detention at the CECOT.

Mr. Poilievre will bring U.S. style gun laws to Canada. #Debate2025

BREAKING: Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez has been released. This is the moment he reunited with his mom.

As David Brooks has said, we’re approaching civil disobedience and national strikes phase of defending our nation.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Prime Minister of Canada.

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us

Kaitlan Collins to Homan: "You say everything was done right here and I heard Stephen Miller in the Oval Office also argue he was lawfully deported. But this administration has admitted in court that he was mistakenly deported, that he should not have been deported."

"The politics of community will beat the politics of fear any day." 8 years ago I called out the Trump hate machine. I am still fighting that machine today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHs_...

Damn the cynics, and there were plenty of them on our side. This is how you do it, and how everyone needs to keep doing it. Instead of cynicism, passivity and cowardice.

Remember that Pierre Poilievre wants to give Rebel News and True North MORE access to ask questions. Is anyone going to call him out for this position? He's argued for them several times, calling them alternative voices that deserve to be heard. I'm waiting traditional media??? #cdnpoli

Pierre Poilievre is living in the past. #Debate2025

🚨URGENT—Despite the Supreme Court declaring that it would be illegal to deport people under the Alien Enemies Act without giving them a meaningful chance to seek judicial review, the Trump admin is reportedly about to send a group of Venezuelans detained in Texas to El Salvador in a matter of hours!

President Trump just fired almost the entire staff of the CFPB, who protect you from getting scammed by Wall Street. This is another assault on consumers and our democracy by Trump's lawless Administration. We will fight back with everything we've got.

Man the highlight of the debate tonight for me was this exchange. “I know you wanted to be running against Justin Trudeau. Justin Trudeau isn’t here” Mark Carney with another BOOM SHAKALAKA on PoiLIEvre 😅 ❤️🍁🇨🇦TEAM CANADA FOREVER🇨🇦🍁❤️ ❤️🍁🇨🇦VIVE LE CANADA 🇨🇦🍁❤️ #canada #markcarney #canadadebate #elbowsup

CBC/Radio-Canada is Canada’s public broadcaster — and it should stay that way. #Debate2025

also, "mature partner"? is this some kind of kink? country needs an immigration agency. We had one: INS. We've seen again & again that ICE has lawlessness in its DNA. the whole DOGE goal is creating universal data inside the govt, then consumed by Palantir. Its prey won't only be immigrants.

Our whole problem right now is that the very small number of people in a unique position to take real action aren't doing so.

We are in charge of our own future. We will build a stronger Canadian economy that works with reliable trading partners — and doesn't depend on the United States. #Debate2025

Chris Krebs is America’s next profile in courage. The entire nation should support this honorable and courageous fellow citizen.

FFS I got death threats about making Optimus Prime the wrong kind of truck when I wrote the TRANSFORMERS movie. Do the job or get out of the way.

We are responding to President Trump’s tariffs with purpose and force. #Debate2025

Fight President Trump’s tariffs. Protect workers. Build a stronger economy. That’s my plan. #Debate2025

You saw the video of the ICE agent breaking a car window near the border, right? He wasn’t an ICE agent. He’s the founder of Veterans on Patrol, a FAR-RIGHT MILITIA patrolling the border for migrants. They’re basically deputizing militias to act as federal agents. This is dangerously out of control

Checks and balances exist for a reason — the Trump administration is not above the courts.

Trump lied. Again.
