Today was an important day for the opposition movement. The law firms that stood up against Donald Trump threats won. Those that capitulated and collaborated with Trump will need to explain to their families, clients and future generations why when democracy was at stake they were such cowards.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1.5 trillion. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits. The military industrial complex is cheering today.

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

US administration has lots of stamina- lots of moving parts to create confusion and exhaustion. So much disinformation will make it so that you don’t know fact from truth. Stay engaged and vocal.

Remember the consumer power you have Canada 🇨🇦- keep buying local and boycott US products! Dont take your foot off the gas on this one! No US travel- We can live without Amazon! Let’s keep going! #canpol

Trump made is point about “woke” in his story telling about Obama. The real point here is that he doesn’t agree with Canada’s way of caring for all citizens. This is what he cares about. He can’t create an authoritarian govt while the people of US can see next door care for all people.

Congratulations to @mark-carney.bsky.social and team for your ability to sit in a room with a group of dishonest, corrupt and imagine group of thugs in the White House. Who would want to do business with an administration who conducts themselves in the way of a lies. Stand up to this regime 🇺🇸.

This is a widely inaccurate & dangerous mischaracterization. The vaccine was developed in fetal cells obtained from two elective abortions in the early 1960s. There is not abortion debris floating around in the vaccine. And the Vatican has okayed its use. RFK Jr. is again spreading disinformation.

RFK Jr on measles: "The MMR vaccine contains a lot of aborted fetus debris."

Hey USA, Remember the Trump rules from the biography: 1. Attack, attack, attack 2. Never admit anything, deny 3. No matter what happens claim victory and never admit defeat. That’s the entire regimes playbook. He learned it early in his career.

Wake up #Alberta. You're being governed by a cult (for real). #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli #corruptUCP

On Friday, Alberta’s Chief Medical Officer of Health finally issues a statement urging Albertans to get vaccinated in the face of a measles outbreak. On Monday, he’s out of a job. We are truly being governed by the Convoy Crowd. Alberta has become a Trumpian dystopia. #abpoli #ableg #medical

Look to our neighbours to see what can happen when ideology changes in government. Canada pay attention. US govt and right wing conspiracy peddling social media influencers (two of the same), are eager for Canadians to have a conservative govt (PP). Women’s rights, health care and safety are stake!
