A reminder to members of the U.S. Armed Forces that you took an oath to support & defend the Constitution, NOT the president. They are mutually exclusive things.

“Each of the outlets made a willful decision to forgo referring to the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of Mexico. While it may have been performed in a subtle manner, make no mistake: It was still an act of submission.”

We thank everyone for supporting the boycott of American products. But please buy Lays chips. There are 1200 union members with the Steelworkers at the plant in Cambridge and they need your support. Boycott American plants but support the jobs here in Canada. #elbowsup

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

It was never about removing “gang members”. It was never about “dangers to our country”. It was ALWAYS about white power, Christian nationalism, Nazism. Racism.

People who change your life: Ted Schmidt taught highschool to my punk rock bandmates. When our band went on the road Ted gave us books on social justice and how to turn faith into action. He has been part of my life ever since. He is in his 80s and holds a weekly vigil on Kingston road for peace.

Dear @aaron.bsky.team. @azbrittney and @donkoclock were apparently mass reported by MAGA bot accounts and suspended. Brittney and Donk are the sweetest people, and they’ve always tried to put out positive vibes. There was NO reason for their suspension. Please reinstate their accounts ASAP—thanks!

Not the first person to make this observation, but it's so striking how the media covered the crack epidemic as a problem caused by black/urban drug users and the fentanyl epidemic as a problem imposed externally on white/rural drug users.

We are seeing a giant lie play out w Canada as target. Same happened 23 years ago, w Frum at centre of the lie. But now a guy like Frum will be invited on the cbc’s flagship radio program & never ever questioned about it, treated as a respected expert. Trust in media was killed from within
