Time to get off the internet to:

- Prep Turkey for Canadian #Thanksgiving 🇨🇦

- Watch #KPopDemonHunters with the kiddos

- Teach the 10 year old how to prep & wash the laundry (she asked)

It’s going to be a good Saturday.

Don’t invite for-profit companies into your home & life!
YOU become their product, everything private of yours becomes theirs. You have no idea or control over what they’ll do with it.
They’ll make millions off of you, to give to shareholders

This is what they’re doing to CITIZENS in PUBLIC with CAMERAS and WITNESSES.

Just imagine the violence & cruelty they’re inflicting/inflicted on the innocent immigrants they’ve imprisoned behind closed doors that they won’t even let lawmakers into (who have a right & duty to inspect)!!

“YOU hit HER.”

CHICAGO - Trump’s ICE goons ram into a passing car after snatching someone, then brutally drag the female driver of the car they hit out of her car with guns drawn and arrest her too. (Her brother says she’s a citizen)

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

MAGA Alberta troll site begs Trump to ban me. Little wonder that MAGA Alberta looks to a foreign adversary for help.
I have been blacklisted by Putin, being banned by Trump would be a source of honour.
And I remain proudly Canadian - true, north, strong, free and never a quisling traitor.

The “anti-censorship” party ladies and gentlemen, has forced the re-editing of a BOOK!

Not because there were lies. Because they didn’t want the truth acknowledged!!

And they apologized.
For telling the truth about an event.

The world is upside down!!!
