Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy. Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media. That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, and the arts – to prevent us from learning. It's Fascism 101.

Pierre Poilievre: "Canada saw the worst food inflation in 40 years with the Carney-Trudeau Liberals in power." Fact check: Carney was not a member of the Liberals. Inflation was indeed the highest in 40 years but the Stats Canada report also explained that the pandemic played a major role. #cdnpoli

Russian strikes on Kryvyi Rih, Kherson, Sumy, Odesa, Dnipro and many other Ukrainian cities are strikes on civilians. Deliberate strikes at locations where people are gathered. The Geneva Convention defines this as war crimes⤵️

It's striking how much more detailed and specific all the leaders are than Pollievre. He's more vague, and uses a lot more slogans than the others, even when they're not really related to the topic. This must work well with an important segment of voters, or maybe it doesn't, and we'll find out.

The tRump regime is committing international level humanitarian & war crimes every day. They think they can get away with all of this. But it’s reaching a tipping point where they will have to face tens of millions of Americans who want their country back and justice for those unjustly incarcerated.

For those breaking the constitution on behalf of Donald Trump with the assumption that he has your back: he may. But he’s 78, never exercised in his life, and will be president max another 3.5 years. There will be not statute of limitations for violating it

Boasberg has game: "To permit officials to freely annul the judgments of the courts of the United States wd not just “destroy the rights acquired under those judgments”; it would make “a solemn mockery” of “the constitution itself.” (Marshall, C.J.). “So fatal a result must be deprecated by all.”

NEW: China is switching from American to Canadian oil. Chinese purchases of American oil are down 90% year on year. Purchases of oil from Canada are up +700%. That equates to a $20 BILLION annual loss for the United States, at current oil prices. Tired of winning yet?

It’s almost as though everyone in Trump’s orbit, inside and outside government, gets together on a (non-secure) Zoom call to decide “What’s the most corrupt and illegal thing we can do today? And on some days they can’t reach consensus so they just go ahead and do them all.

I'm not "inspired" by women with more money than they know what to do with taking an expensive joyride as ordinary Americans go without when women who actually flew aircraft are being erased from history by the Pentagon and women astrophysicists are being besmirches as "DEI hires" and fired.

A lot of people seem to think following the U.S. Constitution is optional—like picking which shoes to wear in the morning. It’s not. If you’re within the boundaries of the United States, the Constitution applies to you.
