Out of respect for the decision taken by His Majesty King Charles of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and in furtherance of the special relationship between said Kingdom and the United States of America, I wish to humbly suggest the latter RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

Rep. Adam Smith: "This country has not agreed to have the death penalty for drug smuggling. If we want to have that policy conversation, we can have that policy conversation, but the president has unilaterally decided that lethal force is going to be applied. It's an enormous expansion of power."

Congratulations, sir! Appearing on South Park is an honor, indeed. Not only have you "finally made it", you had the best line of dialogue in the show. Good luck with your love of furniture and your continuing EPSTEIN Cover-Up, Mar🐫

Update: This post was from back when Lecce was Education Minister in the Ford government. 42% of respondents in Ontario gave him a negative grade so what did Ford do? Promoted him to a new job, with more responsibility. That is so Ford 😒

When we asked about Education Minister Stephen Lecce, 15% have a positive view of him compared with 42% who have a negative view. It is time for Lecce to find a day job. abacusdata.ca/ford-education…

COLBERT: You warned everyone…he would prosecute political enemies, cut Medicaid, alienate our allies, give tax cuts to the rich. I know you're not here to say 'I told you so' but would you like to? HARRIS: You're correct. I did predict a lot of that. But what I did not predict was the capitulation.

Kamala Harris speaking in Australia, "I do worry that we remember history" "It's important that we remember the 1930s" "It’s important that we remember that history has taught us that isolation does not equal insulation" "History has taught us the importance of relationships of trust"

Tim Pool has spun up Trump's rhetoric of invading Canada, fantasizing about destroying our economy until "our will to resist" an actual invasion "will erode." thetyee.ca/News/2025/02...

Right-wing YouTuber Tim Pool has made it to the White House pool — someone from his “Timcast” channel will be part of today’s pool duty covering the president. Last year, DOJ revealed Pool was receiving millions of dollars from the Russian gov. Pool says he didn’t know where it was coming from.

🚨 THIS IS A RED ALERT FOR ALL AMERICAN WORKERS. If you think this administration will stop at eliminating unions for federal workers, you need to get your head examined. These billionaires are coming for our right to organize as workers. ALL of us.

Danes and Greenlanders must wonder: if the US government is using its leased base on Danish/Greenland territory to threaten Danish/Greenland sovereignty... then why the hell are Denmark and Greenland leasing that territory to an unfriendly foreign power?

I look forward to my kids getting the hell out of school in Toronto. I loathe the goddamn TDSB, the trustees, and the fashy plants at the Ministry. I hate that my kids' education in Ontario is in the hands of this piece of shit. Someone I wouldn't even allow in the house.

Business leaders all across America are freaking out that Trump's tariffs will kneecap their firms. “There’s an overriding sense of helplessness” among executives. “CEOs are feeling stunned, and they’re not used to feeling like they don’t have good moves.” (gift link)

Oklahoma’s SCR2 is a blatant violation of the First Amendment. Government has no business declaring “Christ is King” in a nation founded on religious freedom. This Christian nationalist stunt excludes millions of non-Christians & undermines democracy.

The government serves We the People, not any god. Oklahoma’s SCR2 is Christian nationalism, plain and simple—an unconstitutional power grab that tramples on the rights of non-Christians and the nonreligious.
