Interesting synopsis from the ex foreign minister and deputy Prime Minister of Canada torontolife.com/city/the-us-...

The Republicans have poured $130 million, yes, $130 million into political ads in Texasin support of the felon known as Paxton. There is something seriously perverse and immoral about that amount of money being spent to promote a candidate. But then, this is America in the 21st century.

Mike Caruso, Palm Beach County Clerk of Courts, and pedophile said he still intends to win his election for Clerk and Comptroller after being arrested in August for molesting a male relative under the age of 5. He’s been endorsed by the GOP. amp.miamiherald.com/news/politic...

Trump isn't beating the "can't walk in a straight line" allegations

No shit🤔💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

4 men in plain clothes kidnap a woman—they claim to be ICE. Woman's name is Angel Zhao. She lives in Huntington Beach, California—originally Shanghai, China.

In the history of all the things that never happened, this never happened the most. SMH. Politicians lie. These politicians lie so often it seems like breathing.

“I respect the senator for taking his shot. He was just 750 miles off.” @profgalloway.com and @karaswisher.bsky.social have some fun with Sen. Eric Schmitt’s viral mix-up between the Atlanta Hawks and the Iowa Hawkeyes during his questioning of Jack Smith.

Today, Oct 1st, US customs denied entry to a Canadian truck carrying bonded goods, destination Campobello Island (pop 1000) off of Maine, due to tRumps banning of liquor etc. Alternative ferry is expensive. Maybe Point Roberts in Wa should be subject to the same restrictions of supply. Childish?

I wrote this to try and bear witness; I hope you'll read it. If you do, I hope you'll later find some quiet to think about this man, pray for him if you'd like, and then find out what you can do to help those impacted by this violence and terror in your community.

I wrote about how Trump is treating presidential power like it's his own possession and using it to punish blue states — but also about how at least he's promised lots of cash for all of us. www.ctinsider.com/columnist/ar...

They all knew ahead of time who he is...

When Trump dies, and 500 million around the world celebrate, would they all be wrong?

This administration would be so funny if it wasn’t so historically embarrassing and destructive. America deserves serious leaders.

The perfect response. And they still don't understand how tariffs work. Or anything else for that matter. 🙄

A minor detail is missing from the headline.

A data center in New Jersey spilled 5,000 gallons of diesel fuel into a local creek, putting the area’s entire river system at risk. Is it any wonder nearly 70 percent of Americans don’t want a data center in their community?

BREAKING: The Supreme Court DENIES Trump’s emergency request to impose new mail-in ballot restrictions ahead of the midterms. The restrictions remain blocked. Justice Kavanaugh joined the denial, while Justices Alito and Thomas dissented.

Tariffs are a boxing match where both fighters punch their own people to land a hit on the other guy. Trump can hurt Canada, but only by hurting American consumers too. Carney can retaliate, but only by hurting Canadians. https://newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/why-dont-we-put-a-tariff-on-ohio

Many are trapped for hours in darkness and confusion.

Reporting live from the Canadian Department of “What the Fuck Are You People Doing?”

When a country tells you who they are, believe them. The US has always been a country of violence, expansion, and above all racism. They believe it's their God given right. Citizens go begging for basic services while their tax money gets funneled into the vast US military industrial complex. Awful.

Let's say you want to buy a house, but your existing loan debt is about as high as your income. So you go to the bank and they say we'll lend you the money, but the interest rate is going to be considerably higher because we think you may default on the loan. That's where the US is right now.

21 days before the 25th anniversary of September 11th, the United States imposes 50% tariffs on the country that gave its citizens refuge during the worst terrorist attack in US history.

When Howard Lutnik comes in at the last minute of negotiations and starts talking about language requirements, indigenous treaties, and limiting Canada's ability create and maintain trade agreements is not about trade. It's about flattening Canadian culture so that it can become the 51st State.

US spends unlimited money on wars; next-generation blackboards in China🇨🇳. Different choices define different futures USA: no $ for that; we spent $ on shock gloves to torture children in concentration camps..China’s doing this for their kids, and we’re putting the Ten Commandments in public schools

Performative bullshit. Fauci is a hero. Besides, they’re trying to ban an 85-year-old retiree from a job he already left.

I have now uninstalled the BBC app from my phone. Every story was behind a paywall. I cannot afford to pay every substack/news organisation for my news. I deleted NYT/WAPO last year for obvious reasons. So I am left with the Guardian, CBC/CTV and Al Jazeera. I guess that's enough. But the beeb? 😭

Egypt fans being pulled aside, patted down, and double-checked before the Argentina vs. Egypt match, while Argentina supporters were allowed to walk through security without the same level of screening. And this is exactly why people keep accusing FIFA of double standards.

With today's immigration decisions coming down from SCOTUS it would seem that one of the priorities of the next congress/administration would be to update and enact an immigration policy/law for a modern America. All major countries have clear immigration laws. Not America.

Fuck that bitch in particular. www.mediaite.com/media/news/t...
