Is it safe to assume that Russia itself now has access to computers at the US Treasury?

This gets my vote for tweet/post of the year. This is a RED ALERT post. This is exactly why he’s doing it.

Hahaha

Mark Carney is one of the most respected voices on the economy worldwide and the most qualified candidate to steer Canada through the second Trump presidency.

Please read my latest reflection. There are lies we tell to comfort ourselves. Like Democrats who say we just have to wait two year and Trump will lose control of the House. Like those in Germany who promoted Hitler while believing they could control him. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-reichs...

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

Join the anti-fascist march in #Nanaimo, BC, Canada on Saturday, March 1 at city hall at 1 PM! #CanadianSovereignty #ProtectDemocracy #FightFascism #Resist

He nails it.

It is happening, yay!! Minister Anita Anand informed the provinces Friday that Ottawa will remove more than half of federal internal trade barriers in a move to make Canada less reliant on the US, according to a senior federal government source. #Canada #cdnpoli 🍁 www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Canada is in danger of election interference from the U.S. fascist regime and we need our national broadcaster to be strong in the face of this unprecedented threat. #SupportTheCBC #CanadianSovereignty #CDNpoli #CanadaSky

If you are experiencing rage and despair about what is happening in America and the world right now because of the Trump-Vance-Musk regime, you are hardly alone. But a groundswell of opposition is growing. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/ten-reasons-for-optimism

Am I correct in thinking that a lot of Americans wouldn’t actually MIND becoming a Canadian province these days?? 🍁

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

Trump is alot of things. But he has not lied yet in terms of making good on his promises to terrorize marginalized groups and disenfranchise every level of society. I do not have the luxury of not taking this man at his word, especially when he has said verbatim there will be no more elections

Trump’s vicious attack on President Zelenskyy is an attack on democracy. Zelenskyy has shown the world what heroism.Trump is a convicted pervert and felon. Trump and Putin are gangsters. We are now in a global fight to defend the democratic order. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRsf...

Canadians on here actually being like "I can't believe how bad things are getting in the US" without acknowledging Alberta just passed some of the harshest anti-LGBTQ+ laws and are about to vote Doug Ford back into power. Wakeup because the far right are in inside the building

🚨 THE FREE PRESS IN THE UNITED STATES IS UNDER ATTACK 🚨

Bravo, Mexico! ✊🇲🇽

Fuck off, you bloated, bloviating orange spunktrumpet!

Power to American resisters ✊

Musk is firing people who operate the Veterans Crisis Line. One of the most substantial and successful tools to fight veteran suicide today. They literally did a 2014 documentary about it that won an Oscar. Can someone point me to the outrage from the MAGA “we love the troops” crowd?

Trump and Musk are LYING about how much money they’ve “saved” by recklessly cutting critical government jobs? Quelle surprise 🙄

Dictators lie, cheat, and backstab. They’ll do it to their own people and they’ll do it to their former allies. The world needs to stand by Ukraine now more than ever. Democracy and humanity are are at stake. #ProtectDemocracy #StandWithUkraine #FightFascism #Resist

American resisters, this is your time to shine. #ProtectDemocracy #StandWithUkraine #FightFascism #Resist

It’s not a coincidence—it’s a warning.

Trump’s tariffs are yet another scam — taking a higher percentage out of the paychecks of working people than out of the wealthy. Trump even suggested he would use the revenue to “offset” more tax cuts for the rich and big corporations.

Trump handed massive tax cuts to the rich in 2017. Now he's planning even more cuts. How are Trump and MAGA Republicans planning to pay for them? By making it harder for millions of Americans to access Medicaid, food stamps, and other federal programs. Trickle up economics.

Trump blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelenskyy a “dictator” isn’t a serious take—it’s just his usual projection. Russia invaded Ukraine. • If Russia stopped fighting, the war would end. • If Ukraine stopped fighting back, Ukraine would end.

Talk about victim blaming. Appalling, but expected from a literal fascist dictator like Trump. #StandWithUkraine #ProtectDemocracy #FightFascism

There is a coup underway to create a dictatorship run by Trump, Musk, Vance, and the unelected billionaires backing them. I highly recommend you follow Robert Reich on Bluesky and Substack for his thorough and digestible coverage of what’s happening in the United States. #FightFascism

The boycott is Canada's first line of defence in a long and hard fight against gangsters and fascists. When American politicians see the mounting job losses they will start getting rattled. My message to the world is to join the boycott of all things American. No pasaran. Canada #strongasfuck

On this day in 1991, The Tragically Hip released their second studio album Road Apples. It became their first #1 album in Canada, produced several hit songs and is remembered as one of the best albums of the 1990s to this day. Let's learn more about it! 🧵1/12

President Zelenskyy tears down Trump's lies; states that Trump lives in a Russian Disinformation bubble: "The U.S. has provided Ukraine with $67 billion in military aid and $31 billion in budget support. .... Trump’s $500 billion fossil fuel claim isn’t a serious conversation." #StandWithUkraine 📹🧵

I didn’t understand the chocolate pie reference until a read a few more posts 🤣 Thanks from The Great White North, Octavia 👑

Why does Alberta have the lowest level of education funding in Canada? Unfortunately Smith and the UCP take no shame as they erode education, healthcare and relations with the rest of Canada to please their libertarian corporate masters. #upcTraitors #smithresign #neverconservative
