Apparently ICE rented a hotel in Pasadena then got kicked out because of protesters. Is there a way to find out in advance where they will stay? Would it be legal to make calls to every hotel in your city in advance letting them know that if they house ICE, they will go out of business?

A Premier threatens First Nations with infrastructure funding unless they support a law that violates treaty rights. This is what happens when one man rules with 43% of the vote. Ontario needs proportional representation. #ONpoli globalnews.ca/news/1122855...

The collective silence of the former Presidents right now is unnerving.

Start with them.

Build an air filter Corsi box for less than $100 to clean the air in your house if Covid and smoke.

More Cdns need to wake up to the perverse values Cdn Conservatives have.They're anti-LGBTQ2S, climate change deniers, for private health care & education, anti-science, vax deniers -the list of Conservative hate-filled values is endless. And don't believe their muted anti-Triump rhetoric.It's a lie

I’m going to mamma jamma fork into my eye

Has the Board of Dir. of the NCC had discussions w/the PCO regarding the fact that a non-sitting MP is living in Stornoway at the taxpayers expense? Have they discussed the possibility of the non-sitting MP pay rent to live at Stornoway until such time as he regains his seat in Parliament again?

Crowds at the LA Football Club chanting Fuck ICE! Music to my ears!

NYT: “If you saw all this in any other country — soldiers sent to crush dissent, union leaders arrested, opposition politicians threatened — it would be clear that autocracy had arrived.” 😳🇺🇸 www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/o...

Anonymous - ICE raided Los Angeles elementary schools in an attempt to kidnap small children. They hid their identities, claimed they weren't ICE, & lied to school authorities that they had "permission" from the parents to take the children out. School officials luckily didn't fall for it. #cdnpoli

Crazy loud motorcycles speeding up Crowchild north, muffler kits on cars that backfire like rifle shots -these selfish (I'm a man! Let me roar!) jerks are ruining our backyard enjoyment. Fine them out of existence, please.

Here is a look at the "riots" in LA..... "Who's got the power? People Power." #FreedomToDissent

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem called Los Angeles a “city of criminals” and not a city of immigrants. But like its name, Los Angeles is a city of angels. We protect and look out for one another, especially the most vulnerable.

Premier Smith is out of her mind. Thank you, but I'll stick to the Canadian side of the border.

🍁MEANWHILE IN CANADA🍁 Our Prime Minister will attend a flag raising ceremony, at 12:30 on Parliament Hill to mark the start of Pride Season.🥳🏳️‍🌈🌈 www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/medi...

I know a lot of people are opposed to Carney's military spending But for the first time in over 150 yrs Canada is under threat We are surrounded by two of the world's superpowers One of which is ruled by a new dictator who has openly threatened us How would we fair being ruled by Trump's America?

Good morning Bluesky! 😀 #canadaunited #buycanadian

It's important for anyone to document these projectiles, but especially important for professional reporters to do so.

Peaceful way to fight back.

Nothin but the facts

BBC NEWS “In the last few hours Russia has begun targeting major British cities with an army of nuclear drones, but we’re interrupting coverage of the attack because Nigel Farage has just farted after eating an enormous ploughman’s lunch.”

I am saddened by the defacement of this monument. It's a monument I've visited. It's a monument of remembrance. Some of us are descendants of those who survived the Nazi scourge that swept Europe between 1933 and 1945. Lest we forget.

A second international reporter has been targeted while on the air. An Australian journalist was shot with a rubber bullet live during a broadcast from Los Angeles.

No problem. No problem at all.

I know one thing. If I were a young blonde, white woman, and a police officer shot me ON CAMERA, my settlement would be large enough to have its own itemized line on LA's yearly budget.

Here's a baby otter to start your week.

ATTN: If you’re a member of the National Guard or you work for ICE and you’re asked to violate the law or your oath, contact Whistleblower Aid to safely, securely, and legally blow the whistle. You can support Whistleblower Aid HERE: whistlebloweraid.org/beans

Yes I’m still laughing at this. They never stopped when my guy tripped, so I’m not gonna stop now.

Watching nearly every political party in the UK chase the same 20% of the worst people in the country, ignoring the other 80%, just to please the papers. Nothing will change in the UK until the papers are taken in hand. Not all the media, just the papers. The rest will flow from there.

Worth thinking about. We don’t have masked ICE agents.
