I rounded up a bunch of local reporting on what cuts to agencies like the National Parks Service and the Forest Service could mean for public lands. We may never be able to draw a direct line between the decimation of the civil service and future catastrophes. But the consequences are inevitable.🌎🧪

While economic diversification is essential, we want to amplify Indigenous voices reminding us that it cannot come at the expense of environmental stewardship or the sidelining of Reconciliation initiatives. @davidebybc.bsky.social #bcsla #britishcolumbia #reconciliation

Marco Rubio's collaboration with Russia's Sergei Lavrov and Putin is one of the most disgusting acts of betrayal to democracy and our nation. Rubio has secured his place in history of infamy.

Meidas takes the #1 podcast spot, Trump’s DOJ is in chaos, Musk is dodging accountability, and MAGA chaos is hitting Social Security, Ukraine, and veterans. Protests are growing as the public grows angry. Don’t miss today’s bulletin!

Americans didn't elect Elon Musk, and should not be forced to reap the harmful outcome of his access. Remove Elon Musk from government. It's that simple.

“YOU GET NOTHING BRIAN KEMP AND GEORGIA !!!”. Is what Trump said to Georgia Gov.Kemp even though Kemp cowardly supported the convicted felon. Trump has denied FEMA funding to Georgia as they try to recover from Helene. Karma for Kemp and the rest of Georgia who were duped by Trump. #ProudBlue

This reminds me of when I was in high school and geography teacher asked the class which way the St Lawrence River flows. We ALL responded "downhill" towards the bottom of the map. I think this level of geographical incomprehension is the only possible explanation.

The historic agreement affirms Haida Nation's title over all of Haida Gwaii lands, beds of freshwater bodies, and foreshores to the low-tide mark 🙌 It's the first time the federal government has recognized Aboriginal title through negotiations. #cdnpoli

Pierre Poilievre doesn't hate all media - just the ones who hold him accountable. To him, they’re a “small cabal of government-approved mouthpieces.” That’s what he told Candice Malcolm, co-founder of True North (and wife of a Shopify executive) in a recent one-on-one sit down. Oh, the irony.

In the United States, we had indoctrination forced upon us, since we were old enough to speak. Being constantly taught that our country was “the greatest on earth“ brainwashed many young Americans. This made it easy for many, to fall into a cult like personality, that we see today

This is what our Transportation Secretary was doing yesterday as planes are crashing on a near-daily basis. I cannot remember a more dangerous time to fly and yet this reality TV actor-turned-Cabinet Secretary is busy watching cars drive laps at the Daytona 500.

This negotiation between the US and Russia, and cutting out Ukraine, is just like when Trump cut out Afghanistan and negotiated with Taliban. We see how that “good deal” turned out. Afghanistan was on Trump Every Trump deal fails

Glad Trump had the chance to waste millions of taxpayer dollars to fly over the Daytona 500 and then ride The Beast on the track as parts of West Virginia, Virginia, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Tennessee are underwater. Priorities.
