in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

We could be treating Canada Post as not just an essential delivery service, but an essential social infrastructure in our communities.

Instead the government prefers to treat it as a costly burden that must be subject to death by a thousand cuts.
For isolated seniors, Canada Post delivers more than mail | CBC News
As the Canada Post strike hits the one-week mark, there are growing concerns for one group of Canadians who typically rely on the delivery service more than most — seniors.

Classic CBC. "Bill could lead to law enforcement acting more freely in Canada"

How does a US bill lead to this, without Canada actively allowing this? Can we use the active voice? Can we actually use words the way that journalists are supposedly able to?

A CBS correspondent told The Independent, “The fact that we don’t have money to pay journalists, but we have money to pay Bari Weiss between $100 and 200 million is indicative of what the Ellisons’ true goal here is. And it’s not journalism.”

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that all these data centers are going into communities that have been historically targeted for exploitation and have the least amount of civic power wielded by the people living there.

This is horrifying.

To give context to ICE's spending spree on weapons & tactical gear, I pulled data on their FY 2023 spending for relevant product categories.

‼️ In the last week, ICE spent well OVER TWICE AS MUCH on weapons, armor, & accessories ($74.6M) as they did in all of FY 2023 ($29.2M).

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. It’s unfolding very rapidly. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-plan
