OTTAWA – Thousands of people have electronically signed a parliamentary petition calling for revocation of Elon Musk’s Canadian citizenship over his role in the Trump administration, which is pointedly threatening Canada’s sovereignty.

BREAKING, please share. Sen.Thom Tillis (R-NC) pushed back on President Donald Trump's comments blaming Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for the war in Ukraine, and issued a warning that Russian President Vladimir Putin is a "cancer" that cannot be given "any space."

Stand with Ukrainians as Trump prepares to sell them out (Location: Russian embassy, London, Feb ‘23)

New billboard in Clacton, Farage’s constituency. He’s still the UK’s #1 grifter. No other MP takes more from second jobs while being employed to represent their constituents in Parliament

@ledbydonkeys.org Hello - I just posted an incredible response by Marc Elias (American lawyer) to FElon Musk. Can you get Mr Elias’s words to a wider audience please - they are so relevant

11-year-old chimney sweep George Brewster was forced up a flue measuring just 12x7.5 inches. His death, after becoming jammed inside, finally galavanised parliament to act. Never forget what cruelties would be inflicted by greed were it not for “red tape”. www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...

Don’t share this or Liz Truss will sue you xoxo

Shocker

Jan 20, 1961. A blizzard the day before. Temperatures well below freezing. Without a coat or hat, JFK gave a speech we still quote today. Robert Frost, 86, recited a poem. Steinbeck and Hemingway and Rothko were among the VIPs. A million people gathered in the cold to hear it. This is the precedent.

In a world of Kid Rocks and Carrie Underwoods, be a Woody Guthrie.

I used to think this was an expression of concern, not a promise.

Your new president, America.

The lunatic who owns Twitter wants us to post positive content. Okay, he's positively a lunatic.

It will always haunt me that the guy with the zip ties had his mother drop him off at the riot.

MAGA’s laughing because Vice President Kamala Harris is fulfilling her oath by overseeing the certification of an election she lost, when their guy wanted to have his Vice President hanged for certifying the election he lost. And that is how you know it’s a fucking cult.

We need to be laser focused on protecting norms and institutions. Thats why it’s very good that Kamala Harris is doing this

Make it make sense.

Have you noticed he never says anything bad about actual tyrannical governments?

France’s President Macron stated that Elon Musk is "directly intervening in elections, including Germany" and "supporting a new reactionary international." At least 3 other European leaders Olaf Scholz, Keir Starmer & Jonas Gahr Støre have called out Musk in last 24 hours.

At the time, everyone, including Republicans, understood how bad it was. Then, brick by brick, they built a foundation of lies to justify doing what they know, deep down, to be wrong. Trump betrayed the country. And so do they.

My thoughts on pardons for the January 6th rioters. Hell no!

This ignorant lunatic thinks Canadians are eager to give up their universal healthcare so they can have mass shootings in their grade schools.

The January 6th attacks weren’t just a dark day—they were a violent, harrowing warning that our freedoms and democracy are under siege. We can never forget, downplay, or excuse the gravity of what happened. Our democracy demands action, and we must stand firm to protect it!

I’m beginning to think he might be psychotic.

A federal judge today held Rudy Giuliani in contempt for failing to turn over information to two former Georgia election workers he defamed after the 2020 presidential election, as they continue to try to collect $150 million in damages.

The United States is so broken and damaged, it has elected a CRIMINAL as its next president. What a horrible county.

It’s not just Kamala that seems sad, I’m sad, you’re sad, our country is sad. It’s breaking my heart for what could have been.

Wow! Biden completely outsmarted Trump with his executive order to permanently ban drilling in 625 million acres of ocean. Biden didn’t just sign it, he invoked the 1953 Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act. Trump can ONLY undo it with an act of Congress or in the courts. Dark Brandon strikes again!

one of the most striking things about republicans these days is they are the biggest fucking sore winners on the planet

January 6th, 2021 should have been the end of Donald Trump’s political career. For as long as I live, I will not understand how it wasn’t.

Think different in 2025: Find and support businesses that are actually doing the right thing. Money talks—spend it where it matters.

i think rage at congestion pricing is a good example of how no one believes that the world can be positive sum anymore. like, people pay a small fee to get access to a faster commute — saving them valuable time — and the money improves public transit, saving other people valuable time. it's win-win!

Fossil fuel companies

Dear Greenland: I invite you to look into how the United States has "cherished" and "protected" Puerto Rico, especially after Hurricane Maria. You'll thank me.

January 6th was a coordinated attempt to kidnap members of Congress, overturn a free and fair election by its people, and install a president whose criminality is simply unprecedented and whose involvement was complete. johnpavlovitz.com/2022/01/05/a...
