I'm a proud Canadian. I have an English degree from the University of Toronto. I follow politics across the planet. I'm a supporter of democracy and I am against fascists. Is that asking too much?

"We may have democracy, or we may have wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." — Commonly attributed to Former U.S. Supreme Court Justice Louis D. Brandeis
Corporate profits are at record highs — but revenue from corporate taxes has plummeted thanks to the tax cuts in Trump and Republicans’ big, ugly bill. Meanwhile, workers’ wages are stagnant and their share of the nation’s income is at a record low. Trickle-down economics was always a hoax.

Canadian nationalist citizen in Alberta voted overwhelmingly to remain in Canada. They resisted the sirens call from U.S. dirty tricksters. America, CANADA DOES NOT WANT TO JOIN YOU! WE ARE PROUD TO BE CANADIAN! DO YOU UNDERSTAND THIS?
The 22 mins had this sketch cooking for a while right? They even knew Alberta wouldn't vote to leave Canada. 😂😂😂
Gavin Newsom is a wolf, in Sheep's clothing. The fact that he was married to Kimberly Guilfoyle, says everything about his lack of judgment. He's the worst kind of politician; a man who speaks out of both sides of his mouth.
It’s bad enough that Gavin Newsom opposes California’s Prop 40. But he also supports Prop 42, a billionaire-backed poison pill that would cancel out Prop 40 entirely and make it impossible to enact future wealth taxes. It’s clear whose side he’s on. Remember this in 2028.

America isn't a cohesive, and coherent democracy. America is a shopping mall with nuclear weapons. It's a country that prays to the god of money, and fails to see the humanity in its own people. It had so much promise, and lost it to a convicted felon, a convicted rapist. The truth is hard to bare.

Career staff at the CFTC were investigating suspiciously timed trades surrounding Trump’s announcement that the U.S. would not bomb Iranian power plants. Then a senior adviser to Trump’s CFTC commissioner told them to back off. Could this administration get any more corrupt?
