Wanna stop getting calls and texts from me about Prop 50? Send your ballot in today. That removes you from the contact lists, and helps phone bankers use their time more effectively :)

I sense a pardon on its way.

A tweet by Jacob Shamsian reads: “The Wall Street Journal reports that Ghislaine Maxwell had a meeting with an unknown person in her new prison camp, during which the entire prison was on lockdown. Inmates say she’s getting unusually favorable treatment by the prison.”

Worth mentioning, when the DOJ starts firing experienced prosecutors for not bending the knee and carrying out these political vendettas, it hurts America's ability to prosecute REAL criminals.

PIMCO, on the #shutdown:

“.. At this point, this standoff feels like a war of attrition with neither side suggesting they will blink .. we think is likely to last until November and possibly extend to Thanksgiving.

“.. we are on the precipice of the longest full government shutdown in history.”

Only a truly evil psychopath would use the withholding of aid as a punishment for what is out of the control of the population desperate for the aid. Truly a disgusting human being.

Brexit is Farage and his fellow Brexiters' shitstorm to own. He/they can't be allowed to just pivot from heckle to heckle and bad idea to worse - while blaming everyone else - without consequences.

So the suggestion that Labour are going to amplify that truth is to be welcomed.

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited.

It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

Last week’s StatsCan report revealed a record-high 223,400 youth in Ontario can’t find work. That's 1 in 6.

Doug Ford’s failure to show vision for young people is costing them the jobs, the hope, and the opportunities that gave their parents a future here.
