Whoa. Pierre Poilievre started a press conference with a question from the truly trash True North, has taken a question from Rebel News...and between every question you can hear a someone yell in the background that he's not allowing all reporters to ask questions. He's ignoring them.

One of my closest "normie" (i.e., not living life online, not very political) friends called just to catch up recently, as we hadn't spoken in a bit. We talked about family etc, and then she says "so, WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE DOING ABOUT ALL OF THIS NONSENSE? How do we stop them?"

Political scientist Sergey Mikheyev weighed in on the situation: "In this situation, we should make it clear for the Europeans: now we can really strike Brussels, London or Paris, because we can forget about Article 5. You can forget the notion that Americans would step in on your behalf."

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

Fact check: nearly 70 percent of US money for Ukraine actually went to US defense industry to replenish the stocks of OLD stuff that went to Ukraine to use. Much of which we would have paid to destroy as their lifespan expired.

Just a heads up folks, Insta is quietly deleting political content if it’s anti-Trump I shared a @hankgreen.bsky.social video and my story was deleted a minute later I received a “political warning” that appeared and then disappeared so I couldn’t screenshot it This is shady and suppressive

Four days it took her to say anything. And then she says … she will do nothing. Not good enough. Her own office is implicated. The investigation can’t be delivered to the people being investigated. How dumb does she think Albertans are? /1

Trump has appointed Russell Vought—a key Project 2025 architect—as new acting head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. He’s expected to share sensitive data with DOGE and paralyze the agency if not attempt to shut it down entirely. Exceedingly bad news. www.wsj.com/finance/regu...

The United States, to hear some tell it, is currently experiencing a “plutocratic coup.” Its democracy is in decline, reports have warned. In light of that, I’d like to share a slightly personal story -- one that keeps me up at night: youtu.be/VDccQaYgwNk

Accessibility has always been a problem in my city. I've had to live this struggle vicariously a lot more often now that I have more and more friends moving here for work from other places. Perfectly capable adults who are prevented from living a full life merely because they have no vehicle.
