When OMB head Russ Vought talks about deliberate efforts to put federal employees "in trauma" and make them quit their jobs, he's talking about people like Michelle, recently fired by Musk/Trump. www.sfgate.com/california/a...

Dear Elon/Donald, Sometimes, it's not what you DID that's important, but what you didn't do. This week I didn't: -Make a Nazi salute -Sell out democracy for money & power -Extort Ukraine for their resources -Dance in a drug-induced haze at CPAC -Decimate US health, science, & education funding

Canadians across the country are rallying behind a petition to revoke Elon Musk's citizenship. He wasn't born in Canada. He represents profoundly anti-democratic values. In Canada citizens can present these petitions to Canada’s parliament. I support them. charlieangus.substack.com/p/musk-doesn...

CBC trying to explain how a "conversation" about whether Canada has a right to exist as a nation will be good because they have asked an American DJ to co-host. Like asking Ukraine to join a "conversation" with Russia about their borders. But don't worry it will be done with "care."

We kicked holocaust denier Ernst Zündel out of Canada. Why the hell would we let Elon Musk have any claim on Canada? He is a fascist threatening the people of Ukraine. I am proud to be helping drive this asshole from our shores. www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic...

All the media outlets treating Trump's threats to annex Canada like a fun thought experiment is a great example of my belief that many people covering politics think politics are a sport where every outcome is just a different jersey, rather than serious issues that affect real people.

Donald Trump says Canada has no right to exist. I take the threat seriously. With our sovereignty on the table I support a national discussion on next steps. But CBC thinks it would be fun to have an American DJ co-host whether we should exist as a nation. Fuck that @ianhanomansing.bsky.social

Already left X. Don't understand why Legault would sign a deal with Starlink at a time like this. Divest from everything Musk and keep him the hell out of Canada. And burn your fucking Cybertruck. It's ugly and it has no traction.

Elon Musk is a bandit. And Doug Ford just signed $100 million deal with him. Meanwhile he and Trump are trying to crush the people of Ukraine. Doug Ford says it's the "best bang for the buck." No Doug, this is what vichy collaborators do. Slava Ukraini

Please read my latest reflection. There are lies we tell to comfort ourselves. Like Democrats who say we just have to wait two year and Trump will lose control of the House. Like those in Germany who promoted Hitler while believing they could control him. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-reichs...

Canadians never bend in the face of tyranny. This is our story as a nation, and I am so proud to be part of that story today. Across Canada and the United States the resistance will come from ordinary people. Keep kicking at the darkness until it bleeds daylight. www.youtube.com/watch?v=es5q...

Climate change is real. There are only three options: 1. Reduce climate-damaging pollution 2. Adapt to unavoidable climate impacts 3. Suffer. By denying and misrepresenting the science and by cutting science and disaster funds, Trump and the Republicans have chosen the third option.

Bullshit euphemisms. "questionable salute" "controversial salute" "provocative gesture" Say it. These are Nazi salutes. Why did Bannon seig heil? Because he's a Nazi and because the press let Musk get away with the same thing by not calling it what it is. www.thedailybeast.com/bannon-does-...

If Hangman would have always listened to veterans, he’d never be who he is. Veterans are important, but when you do something original and novel, you have to break away from traditions. Same for the Bucks and Kenny. You don’t get them following conventional wisdom. Same for Toni. Harley, etc

Very grateful I have lived a full life in a peaceful time. My condolences to the younger than I to be in such a troubled time with your lives fully in front of you. I will be fine. I am satisfied. But genuinely worried for you all. 51st state means tanks and bombs and bending the knee. Peace.

Don't think single people get enough credit for doing life alone. Rent/mortgage is double, household responsibility and life admin is down to one person, you're your own emotional support, holidays are more expensive, you've to trap and transport human sacrifices for the solstice bonfire solo, etc.

The opposite of DEI is NOT "color-blind, hire-the-best-qualified." It's "continue to hire the incompetent white male just because he's a white male." And the entire Trump administration proves that point.

A teacher emailed me & said "My scientist didn't reply to me. My scientists ALWAYS reply to me! What the heck!". I was like "Well. Science is kinda crumbling. Friends/colleagues are losing their jobs or at least funding, & some are being told to cease all outside communications". She hadn't heard.

The boycott is Canada's first line of defence in a long and hard fight against gangsters and fascists. When American politicians see the mounting job losses they will start getting rattled. My message to the world is to join the boycott of all things American. No pasaran. Canada #strongasfuck

At the NATO meeting a loud US republican saw my CDN flag pin on my lapel and reached for it saying, "Hey Canada." I stopped him. "Don't touch the Canadian flag." "Just joking," he said. "You'll die before you touch our flag," I said, "not joking." He scrambled out of there. #notfuckingaround

A Canadian NHL hockey player looks at his American teammate and is forced to live with “this guy wants my country to be invaded.” We got a real problem here that we are truly still ignoring.
