Today we grieve and comfort those hurting with Canadian compassion. Tomorrow we will rise and do our absolute best to ensure their sacrifice - equal as any on a battlefield - is honoured and remembered by our actions and efforts. Je me souviens. We WILL remember them. www.youtube.com/live/F59mB8I...

Turns out there is a reason why life expectancy is falling in Republican-ruled states: the Republicans have adopted loco conspiracy theories in place of sound public healthcare policy, and you can count the consequences in corpses. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

You just have to hear him speak once - only once - and you know he's a crook.
Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) faces scrutiny after a Politico investigation revealed that his advocacy and political groups paid over $720,000 to Checkmate Strategies, a consulting firm he co-founded and later sold for up to $50,000.

Hi @scaramucci.bsky.social I retweeted your "woodchipper" post on X yesterday (it was a good one!) and I also replied to you. I was wondering if you were placed in Twitter Jail after that post? Because I was. For the next 6 days. Does this seem right to you?

This time Trump presumably intends to have at his disposal a Pete Hegseth–directed military “sophisticated” enough to ensure he or his chosen successor doesn't lose an election. Enter ICE.

They tell us to keep out of there business but can't stop trying to poke their slimy lowlife noses into ours. Even just looking at this pic below makes my blood boil. The viral f***wit used to refer to Trump as Hitler, but now can't stop cuddling his fetid ballpark. What a pathetic excuse for a man.

Welcome to the Land of Delusion.
The BLS did exactly what it's supposed to do: provide accurate, nonpartisan data. When the numbers showed Trump's "economic boom" was actually a bust (33k jobs vs claimed 291k), he fired the messenger. After all, when it rains too much, true leaders fire the meteorologists.
