Really American πŸ‘‡ BREAKING: In a stunning moment of defiance, Maine's Governor Janet Mills stands up to Trump, saying she is complying with state and federal (anti-discrimination) law, and will see him in court over his threat to withhold federal funds. This is incredible.πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ˜ŽπŸ’₯

This is Canada and Canadians will decide our future!

Put aside the nastiness of this post, & the way in he attacks Zelenskyy as a dictator but says not a word about his pal Putin, & just focus on the way it is written: would you hire this weird person to work for you? Would you trust this odd person to teach your kid in school?

My thoughts on the Russian-American talks on Ukraine, without Ukraine. The simplest interpretation of the available facts is that the Americans are using Russian violence to try to exploit Ukraine. snyder.substack.com/p/peace-or-p...

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.

Trump once again blames Ukraine for starting the war. Trump blames Ukraine for invading Ukraine. Sure, tell me Trump isn’t working for Putin. Tell me he’s not a Russian asset. Go ahead. www.mediaite.com/tv/shocking-...

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

So if anyone is wondering if Canada will ever become the 51st state, please watch my mother, who is in her 80's, plant a Canadian flag, attached to a hockey stick, in the snowbank in her front yard in honour of Flag Day on Saturday. #IAmCanadian

Something you won’t find on Twitter.

Hannah Arendt says the most evil thing about fascism weren't the atrocities but the willingness of people to go along. Trump has cut funds to the most desperately poor. He threatens Canada. But he can't tell you where to spend your money. His economy needs our tourism $$. You know what to do.

The milk of human kindness is in a serious deficit condition on X Twitter - it does, however, have no lack of indifference and hatred towards the other
