Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

If Democratic congressional leadership don’t lead an en masse halt to all legislative business after today, I don’t know why they’re worth supporting. What moment could more demand a response of intractable and tedious opposition? Shut it all down, and refuse to budge.

Any Democratic politician who doesn't understand Nayib Bukele's grave offense against the sovereignty of the American people and constitutional order and say as much publicly should have no future in elected office. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/bukel...

1/8 Some Canadians asked me: Is Poilievre controlled by Atlas or Harper’s IDU? Honest question. But here’s the deeper truth: it’s not about who owns him. It’s about the global machine he’s part of—one designed to dismantle democracy. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue #Carney2025

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act. Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes? Staffer: a DL and birth certificate. Me: The documents don’t match Staffer: Then a marriage certificate. Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too? Staffer: No Me: See the problem?

The SAVE Act is a poll tax. Over 69 million women would have to get new IDs to vote under the SAVE Act—all of which, except military IDs, cost money. As @mcclellan.house.gov explained, whether it’s $1,000 or 1¢, no one should have to pay to vote.

The question of if a country could fuck itself harder than the UK did with Brexit has today been answered.

Every time I scroll through Facebook, I wonder how people believe half the nonsense being shared. The misinformation is wild!

So, swearing an oath to defend the Constitution against threats foreign and domestic is mostly bullshit, apparently. Needing enormous numbers of guns and tolerating school shootings as the price to pay for protecting against tyranny was always bullshit too.

Hey you festering Orange bag of puss, the porosity of your border isn't a Canadian responsibility. Porosity means leakage. That's what has happened to your brain juices. Stick to golf.

Anybody know who the artist is? Please tag him/her in the comments, if you do. I found it in another post, without attribution. Would live to give credit. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory #Opposition #SlavaUkraini

The petition to strip Elon Musk of Canadian citizenship has 168,000 signatures. This grassroots initiative has exploded in just a few days. Now the UK media are covering it. Musk is a fascist threat to democracy. We kicked out Ernst zundel, Musk is just as bad. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Canadians on here actually being like "I can't believe how bad things are getting in the US" without acknowledging Alberta just passed some of the harshest anti-LGBTQ+ laws and are about to vote Doug Ford back into power. Wakeup because the far right are in inside the building

He’s setting us all up for the funniest possible ending.

The days of consequence free idiocy may be ending!

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Ok that made me laugh

Trump blames Ukraine for starting the war the way a rapist blames his victim for looking too sexy.

Don’t you just love how the people who wanted school open during the pandemic think we don’t need a Department of Education?

It speaks volumes that Canada is facing an existential crisis and people are flocking back to the Liberal Party. Why? Because they know that the Liberal Party is at one with the soul of this nation and Cons have always fought against everything we’re proud of. CPC = GOP

Canadians are resolute on buying more Canadian products and less American, but get this: 9/10 of people who vote Liberal, NDP and EVEN BQ will buy more Canadian… while 75% of Cons will. Even separatists are more patriotic than Cons! www.msn.com/en-ca/news/c...

Nailed it 🏆

At some point, everyone on Bluesky will be on the Doge hit list. Eventually everyone........regardless.

MORON!
