New York's (de)congestion pricing, which charges $9 to drive into Manhattan below 60 St, has reduced traffic, increased ridership, reduced subway crime, and is raising funds to fix the decaying transit system. Rare for a public policy to have this many benefits!

I'm still amazed that Justin Trudeau and the entire Government of Canada is still there and not here.

Please don't let the reporting about the Pentagon purge focus solely on DEI/Joint Chiefs. Firing the service TJAGs - the top lawyers for Army, Navy, USAF/Space Force - is incredibly consequential. A little context🧵on why.

We should tell them to take a hike here in Canada too

Last week, JD Vance gave Europe an ultimatum: it can align with the Trump administration, or face its wrath. To comply, Europe needs to embrace the extreme right, repeal tech rules the US “will not accept,” and allow Silicon Valley to dominate its market. It should tell the US to take a hike.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

#Canada needs to hit back against these #tarrifs by passing aggressive legislation that specifically poaches highly skilled US workers such as doctors, nurses, teachers, and research scientists. Lets do full student loan payment, expedited citizenship, relocation reimbursement #braindrain #cdnpoli

This is a big deal, y'all. Federal health websites are being stripped of content or removed in their entirety. Stick with this thread for a look at what's disappeared so far! 1/x

So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.

Sen. Tim Kaine tells federal employees to ignore Trump’s offer to quit with pay for months. “Don’t be fooled. He’s tricked hundreds of people with that offer. If you accept that offer and resign he’ll stiff you just like he stiffed the contractors. He doesn’t have any authority to do this.”

The most beautiful things about all of the destruction that Trump is wreaking upon the United States is that it is all via Executive Order, meaning that it can/will be undone just as quickly under the next President.

I’m so tired of this ‘mandate’ BS and ‘the American people said…’ nonsense. Trump didn’t win a majority of the popular vote, and beat Harris by one of the smallest popular vote margins (1.5%) in US history. If you factor in turnout, he got the votes of less than 1 in 3 eligible voters in the US.

Ok, so we knew the US fucked, based more or less on 2016-2020, but... I think we can create a new level of classification based on the last 7 days called "super fucked"

Trump & MAGA are going after media in the United States. That’s incredibly dangerous. In Canada, Pierre Poilievre is going after CBC, threatening to defund it. That should be a big red flag for Canadians. CBC isn’t perfect, but it’s light-years better than most North American media (example below).

Not going to lie, I didn't have this one on my fascist apocalypse bingo card. This should absolutely be an area where #Canada can step up and nationalize the domestic production of Pepfar (as well as other $$$ US pharma), and then take over the worldwide distribution that the US is undercutting.
