Canadian Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre didn’t just lose his bid to become Prime Minister — he lost his seat in Parliament. He’ll remain the opposition leader—a conservative in a safe seat will step down so he can have that seat. It was a humiliating night for him. Good. Jessica Craven

WHO ELSE AGREES?! 🤚 Every. Single. One. 😎✨

I just don't know what to say. This makes me sad, scared and angry all at the same time.

“Liberation Day.” 🙄 What that really means is millions of Americans will be liberated from their money. Welcome to economic ruin.

Trump repeatedly pledged on the campaign trail he’d end the war in Ukraine on his 1st day. But as he fast approaches his 100th day in office, his inability to find a solution has become an increasingly obvious flaw of his presidency.

This is insane and everyone involved needs to be sued into oblivion and then go directly to jail

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

The fight to end the #deathpenalty needs more business engagement. Airgas should be applauded for standing up against the misuse of its products in executions: www.nola.com/gambit/news/... #BizVsDP

Brief thread but very important!

Dear #GOP You are running out of time to decide if you take him down or he is the concrete shoes that drown you. Thanks, Sane America

Their war against the judiciary…has begun. www.cnbc.com/2025/04/25/f...

Why do people (here, NYT) still describe DOGE as a cost-cutting team when ... it hasn't? Just on lost tax revenues alone it's deeply in the hole. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/04...

If anyone believes Kremlin aggression ends with Ukraine, they’re only fooling themselves. Europe needs to prepare.

Wow we still have to hear about how Sarah Palin exists. I thought we were over that.

Go to hell

The “but her emails” crowd are now cheering on drunken rapist idiot Pete Hegseth for sending out classified military intel on Signal Chat not once but twice and not just to a reporter but to his wife and brother. He should be in jail, not running the Pentagon.

The mainstream media keeps trying to bring Sec Def Hegseth down by accurately reporting things he did.

Trump is lying about Harvard. They got their asses kicked. Harvard‘s administrators refused to kiss the ring…

He’s so excited about attending Easter service that he hasn’t attended a single Easter service in the last 4 years.

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

Turns out you can shape the agenda with dramatic action and maybe even shift public opinion. Crazy.

America! Enough is enough!

Man Lincoln thought he had a team of rivals but he never had one guy ranting about the autism epidemic and another guy trying to breed a race of superbabies with the exact same type of autism as him

We traded Europe for a guy that builds concentration camps for profit.

And remember, it would be trivially easy to deport these same people through normal procedures. Trump picked this Alien Enemy fight because he wants unreviewable, unlimited powers.

I cannot say this strongly enough -- If you are a member of the DC Bar, VOTE NOW for Diane Seltzer for president.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

It fascinates me that giving to charity is considered ‘noble and praiseworthy’… But, creating an economic system that works for EVERYONE and doesn't require charity, is considered socialist and evil. Mind-boggling. 😎✨
