The upcoming election in Canada could not be more consequential for our country. One thing for sure. Poilievre would sell us out to his right wing buddies in the US. We need a Prime Minister that will fight for Canada and Canadians.

No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.

Someone ask Musk to change a tire

Who among us hasn’t accidentally let a state news service into a POTUS press avail for a meeting with the leader of the country that state invaded?

No more work-from-home, government workers, except for Kash Patel, who will run the FBI from Las Vegas www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

A substantial part of what Pam Bondi gave to the right-wing social media cherry-pickers at the White House today was published more than a decade ago by Gawker.

whew, the truth of this

Elon Musk: people are falsely claiming DOGE can cancel federal contracts. Also Elon Musk:

Every news outlet reporting Elon Musk's comment about accidentally canceling Ebola prevention efforts and quickly restoring them should also say they haven't been restored, they're still canceled, the outbreak-fighting teams are dismantled, the money is gone www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I think Musk is a first class cretin, and I have loathe him. But I think Canadians should think long and hard about setting a precedent for stripping citizenship from someone because we hate them and what they stand for. That’s definitely something Musk himself would do.

I think the producers of “Silo” would like to have a word about that design.

Well Kamala Harris was not a secret lefty extremist and the MAGA guy won but besides that you absolutely nailed it

I still don’t understand why Democrats would negotiate a budget when the Trump administration claims unilateral authority to cancel any spending it dislikes. As long as congressional Republicans endorse that position, they are not legitimate negotiation partners! An agreement with them has no value!

ICYMI: Another case of friction between tourists and a tourist hot spot is making headlines in Japan. A social media post from a Buddhist temple in Kyoto made waves when the frustrated head priest declared getting along with foreign tourists an impossibility.

You know, there are competitors to Starlink. After this, if Canadian company (or Premier) needing satellite internet doesn't consider those other options, then their loyalties are suspect.

Trump asking Democrats in Congress to fund his crime-spree administration because his own party cannot untie its shoelaces is a pretty good rewrite of the old joke about the man who killed his parents then asked for clemency because he was an orphan.

That everyone outside your own political base isn’t “real people” is a very succinct summation of populism’s core premise. It’s not about some nebulous notion of representing the masses, it’s about claiming the power to decide who counts as “the people” with rights and legitimacy.

Government efficiency is when every federal agency has to send a daily emergency email to its workers telling them to ignore another daily email from a different department trying to fire them without knowing what their jobs are.

You can’t spend a decade online bragging about triggering libs then tell people to “spread love not hate” when a triggered lib eggs your swasticar.

Just an unbelievable own goal that the party—and specifically Pelosi, who had great strengths as Speaker—put an ancient and not nimble messenger in this key public committee spot instead of @Aoc who is absolutely one of the best comms people in entire party.

Feds don’t work for Musk *and* they don’t work for the Office of Personnel Management, which has no authority to send a “tell me what you did last week” email to anyone outside of OPM.

Before lawmakers swear an oath to the Constitution, perhaps they should be required to read it

Having worked in both private industry and local government I can attest to the fact that working in public service is a very different model and mindset. If you go into government from private, you really have to tweak how you think and do things… it’s not a profit mindset, it’s a service mindset.

Daniel Penny just got a cushy job at Andreessen Horowitz specifically because he murdered a homeless man on the subway

this rich asshole in st. louis pointed a gun at some protesters and become a right wing celebrity overnight. conservatives were so enthralled by a guy who threatened to kill liberals that he got recruited to run for senate and raised over a million bucks in individual donations

Unfortunately I won’t be to DC in time, but this rally for Ukraine is happening in Lincoln memorial. Attend if you can and Slava Ukrainii!

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

This is astounding. It shows Albertans paid double - sometimes triple! - for surgeries at private surgical facilities connected to friends of the UCP than through AHS. And the Premier’s staff & Health Minister allegedly pressured & then fired the CEO of AHS when she asked questions about them.

this kind of shit made sense back when musk was still widely admired and seen as non-political but the most recent polling shows he's hilariously unpopular, like 10-15 points lower than Trump's own low approval ratings. People hate this motherfucker! You don't need to clear your throat first
