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...

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

Nobody, anywhere, should sign a deal with the USA. Their signature is meaningless. Even if the next POTUS is an honest person, there’s always a risk they’ll elect another criminal who won’t recognize international agreements, even ones he negotiated & signed himself!

Mick Lynch wants a progressive wealth tax with the richest paying the same as everyone else on PAYE, 47%. That would bring in hundred of billions, it is time for the richest to pay what everyone else has been paying their whole lives.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

Crockett: He went from being the dork that was jumping around on stage to allegedly being this amazing genius that's gonna save a country he wasn't born in, and one that maybe he doesn't agree w/the idea of a democratic republic, considering the fact he may have been more on the side of apartheid.

Water companies are pumping sewage in our sea and taking record profits. Labour refuses to nationalise them. In the exact same way he won't tax the wealth of the 1%, blames migrants & cut winter fuel for pensioners. Is it any surprise they're tanking?

I used to think Strategic voting was wise but both research & personal experience have shown it isn't. Decisions made regardless of platform (& differences). unions using this ineffective strategy hurt the party pushing the window to caring (left) which takes a few election cycles. #ONDP

There's like less than a dozen trans athletes in women's sports. Trans people were never a problem. They're the victims. Trans people never asked to be talked about 24/7. The Republicans do that to instigate a culture war. MAGA Nazis use trans as scapegoats the same way German Nazis used Jews.

4 paradigms: patriarchy, capitalism, white supremacy, & Christianity are trying to seize power over the people who live in the U.S. They want to exploit our every need for profit. Deny us our culture, diversity, values, & voices. Turn us into empty consumers. It's a long journey towards reform.
