Note that date. He put this Bill forward in the middle of the “Freedom Convoy” harassing people in Ottawa. Over COVID vaccine mandates set by the US side of the Canada-US border, since we’d already lifted ours. Let his actions speak for themselves.

What on Earth is it aboiCarney that Gaetz think will make him stumble during the debate? Preparation? Calmness when attacked? Knowledge of data? Clear way of communicating? Sir, this is an Arby’s.

You’d think a department run by tech bros would know that you never delete web content, you archive it.

This article describes diplomacy and grey-rocking. It also explains how PM Carney simply cannot do what Blundell suggests he did. If he could, it would be Poillievre’s campaign wet dream.

Are you listening, NHL teams? You really should be.

Spock, every damn day.

Science does not work like this. The only way you can set a timeline is if you have rigged the results in advance.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

My dog does this too!

🇺🇸 U.S. Helsinki Commission: Vladimir Putin has no interest in peace. On Friday, he proved this once again by attacking civilians in Kryvyi Rih, killing 20, including children on a playground.

Be reminded that Auschwitz was in Poland not Germany.....

you can't spell "tariffs" without "FFS"

Time to revisit The Wire.

When Income Support provides emergency accommodations, and involves a newborn or small baby. They don't consider that mom/dad cannot sterilize bottles and nipples or boil water and need a room with a hot plate or kitchenette. It ends up with sick babies and could have serious outcomes. #abpoli

This can’t be legal.

This whole thread! If you are mad that your candidate didn’t connect with voters enough to win, don’t blame the members of a different party for voting for the party that connected with them. All you want is that politician to read *your* script? Why should they bother being there at all?

4 April 1944 | A Mosquito plane from 60 Photo Recon Squadron of the South African Air Force flew out of #Foggia base in Southern Italy to photograph the IG Farben factory 6 km from the #Auschwitz concentration camp. As a result, the camp was photographed for the first time.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney: "We answered the call to defeat fascism. We know we are not always perfect, but we always strive to be good. We do not do things because they are easy, but because they are right. We will rise to meet this challenge, and we will emerge stronger."

The stock market is SO bad that FOX News took the ticker off of its screen for the first time in their 28 year history. Read that again.

Steve Jackson Games posted this to their blog and the post is getting so many hits their site is effectively crashed but the point is worth repeating

It has been two weeks since a Georgia woman was arrested for her miscarriage, and not one major national outlet has covered the story

Masking discourse is on again and I’ll just say if you see people masking when few others are it’s likely because they’ve determined that for them, in that setting, the benefit of not catching (or spreading) whatever’s going around is worth the cost of masking. It’s rarely more complicated than that

pro tip: if you can afford to blow $250 million on a losing campaign in Wisconsin, you can afford to pay a 90% top tax margin

Hopefully Strom Thurmond took some time out of his busy schedule burning in hell to get the news that he was just beaten by a black man.

Those penguins have been ripping America off for years. Very nasty negotiators!

I don’t think this NYT writer understands how Occam’s Razor works…

Ethnic cleansing. It's called ethnic cleansing. www.cnn.com/2025/04/02/m...

In his 1957 filibuster, Strom Thurmond said "Negroes ... are not so well qualified to vote as are the white people.” A Black senator just broke the record Thurmond set with that speech. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/cory-bo...
