If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

I think America can no longer function as designed. There are no effective checks and balances, and every day freedoms are either being denied or muted. Your only power card left is civil disobedience. Your labor is your power and your voice=National Strike.

The Trump Administration deliberately doxxed the wife of Kilmar Abrego Garcia by posting her home address publicly on X. Now she and their 3 children have been forced into hiding for their safety. This is not politics. This is targeted cruelty. 1/

US federal judge now basically describing US government as dishonest in its dealings with the court. That this description is not surprising does not take away from how extraordinary this moment is, and should be. This is what a constitutional crisis looks like, played out in real time.

So the dream here is that Americans have a lot less disposable income and work physically demanding jobs, while Chinese factory workers get to be management consultants with luxury SUVs and holiday homes? I can see why this idea is appealing to someone, just not sure it's Americans.

Publishing the nationalities/ethnicities of criminals will not serve any purpose. This is another wedge issue, another right wing talking point, which has been adopted into the mainstream discourse. I can see them being selective with which figures they choose to publish and highlight.

Canadian Labour 🇨🇦 - "We combed through the records and found that Poilievre has voted against workers over 500 times. One throwaway line about workers doesn’t undo that record. It’s not a slip-up, it’s a strategy. Poilievre’s platform shows he’s determined to leave workers behind." #cdnpoli

Not every number is a phantom. Pierre actually has about 20 billion in counter tariffs in there as offsetting revenue, small problem though, Canadian consumers pay for those. He's hoping you don't notice. His followers certainly won't notice but the rest of us are smarter than them. #cdnpoli

UK charities warn of record high child poverty if two-child benefit cap not scrapped. £3.6bn would lift 350,000 children out of poverty, reduce poverty for another 700,000. Govts that bail out & subsidise corporations can eradicate poverty. Ditch the Tory policy. Tax the rich. Save the future.
