There’s something scary happening in the Canadian federal election. In Quebec, the Bloc leader is now telling voters “Carney WILL WIN” so people can vote to give the Bloc more seats. Singh is now saying Carney will get a “super majority” so voters can elect NDP candidates. Do you see the problem?

Oh come ON!!! Stupidest possible way to run an economy

The Christian nationalist's tool of persecution is warped but powerful. It mobilizes voters by framing issues as moral emergencies. Creates solidarity, i.e. “they” are coming for “us." Deflects criticism, any pushback can be reframed as an attack on their faith rather than a light on the truth.

“He has, from the moment of his nomination, been a miserable example of a leader, deflecting blame, accusing others, and smirking and snarking his way through his Senate confirmation hearings and almost every other public appearance since taking his post.”

This is a time of organizational cowardice & individual heroism. If you expect organizations as a whole to stand up for what’s right, don’t. They will devise excuses to justify their cowardice & try to convince individuals that their organizational cowardice is the only way forward.

Excellent lecture by @holdenthorp.bsky.social (Research Integrity and Scholarly Excellence @virginiatech.bsky.social) about regaining public trust in science: be humble and meticulous, admit mistakes and correct them, answer questions. Universities should shift their focus toward teaching.

"I'm a strong believer in due process," Adams affirmed this morning, before going on to say he has no problem with people getting picked up off the street by ICE, sent to a gulag, and held incommunicado in El Salvador without due process. hellgatenyc.com/eric-adams-h...

Trump says he can’t do anything because of the second amendment. Which is interesting, given how unconcerned he is with the constitutionality of a third term or eliminating birthright citizenship, let alone due process guarantees for every person in America

A common characteristic of concentration camps is that they're controlled by governments and leaders who simultaneously want to use them to terrorize targeted groups while also pretending that the people running them are decent people not harming anyone and acting only in the public interest.

Carney was the worst debater but this is the reason he won. He was the ONLY person to listen to all the questions and attempt to answer them in earnest, point by point. Everyone skillfully dodged the hard questions. By this, carney showed that he’s the only leader who would listen to everyone.

It's 2030. Secretary of State Chris Van Hollen, who has rebuilt a coalition with most NATO states, says the siege on Bukele's home has been a success. The NBA has ruled Ozempic is not a performance enhancing drug, but Luka Doncic refuses to take it, winning his third MVP in four years at 400 pounds.

Goldman: "Think about whether any of us want to vote a certain way but bc we fear for our personal safety, we decide to vote differently. We are no longer representing our constituents. We are representing something else more like the bully threatening us. That is more like Vladimir Putin operates"

Rights of due process don't depend on our personal opinions of the accused. For example, I regard the January 6, 2021, criminals as insurrectionists and traitors - yet I am still glad that each and every one of them got a proper trial before they were convicted and sentenced.

There was no (well, a very wee bit) about Paul Revere but it was good to hear from a senator who is as alarmed as I am about what is going on. Thanks to @hcrichardson.bsky.social and Sen. Angus King of Maine for this conversation. Governance is my love language 🤣😛

This is why we have due process; because random people speculating about things is a terrible way to run a government. Without due process, we're all just vigilantes. At its core, that's what this is about. Due process and the rule of law. Everything else is window dressing.

Without due process, this could be you. It could be me. It could be any or all of us. It doesn’t matter who you voted for. Or the color of your skin. You must understand what is truly at stake here. All tyranny needs to thrive is for people of good conscience to remain silent.
