I should have seen it coming, but I didn't understand
That hubris is the enemy of best laid plans
Seemed like I was riding high, but my head was in the sand
I should have seen it coming, but I didn’t understand

“.. The company did not pay the corporate alternative minimum tax, and has never reported paying the levy, though Democrats created it in hopes of forcing companies like Amazon to pay more.”

There is an old word to describe going to a foreign power and asking for their assistance in breaking up a sovereign country — it’s treason.

I don't think @reuters.com posted it here, but I'm just kind of shocked that anyone working in media could have gone into the second Trump administration thinking, "I don't think in those first few days we understood what an organized agenda they had."

They made a 900-page playbook, Sally!

totally. 🎯
over and over and over again. and if the 900 page playbook wasn't enough, how about sitting through every horrible confirmation hearing for every one of those horrible people. They told us what they would do once elected - and they've kept their word so far. go figure.

Trump is actively work to break our country apart. The plan has been in the works for a long time. There is a lot of dark money on the table.
Prime Minister Carney needs to deal with the quisling front group being used to sell our nation out.

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

I think worth calling and reading the reports of the video into their voicemails if you can stomach it. Confront them at every moment of their miserable lives with what they decided to support.

Call Pelosi too for good measure. Her boy Cuellar is sitting there as usual.
these are the 7 house democrats who voted to give ICE another $10 billion on thursday btw

😬🫣. Could Tesla sales be a factor in Canada (which i guess is a good thing)?

but otherwise, way to go Doug.
Global EV demand is soaring, and Canada isn’t keeping up.

We risk losing jobs and investment unless we align our auto sector to where the market is going.

I recently read Bill McKibben’s latest book, Here Comes the Sun, and I highly, highly recommend it! It’s a bracing, lively and briskly evidence-based antidote to despair.

RFK Jr. appointee Kirk Milhoan has just clearly stated, out loud, that he wants to experiment on the people of the United States by seeing what happens as vaccination coverage plummets and infectious diseases spread.

I haven't agreed w several decisions Carney has made as PM, but was satisfaction in hearing his Davos address. And although there were other important parts, for me, best was “We know the old order is not coming back. “We shouldn’t mourn it. NOSTALGIA IS NOT A STRATEGY..." #davos #carney #wakeup

Let the historical record note that the business elites at Davos repeatedly laughed during a fascist speech that declared intent to annex another country’s land, promoted election conspiracies and railed against the free press

This is a travesty of journalism — it doesn’t matter and does nothing to excuse ICE killing her.
your journalists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could they didn't stop to think if they should

This photo tells you everything you need to know about the far right in Canada.

How fundamentally stupid and bigoted do you have to be to look at the disgraceful shitshow our neighbors are enduring and think to yourself "yeah, let's get us some of that"?

Amount of blood US has expended defending Greenland: zero. Amount of blood Denmark has expended defending the US: 43 Danish soldiers gave their lives in Afghanistan, responding to a US appeal under article 5 of NATO. Ogles has no idea about any of this, because he's an incompetent buffoon.
Ogles: "It's important that we have a stake in Greenland, that they are quite frankly a protectorate of the US. They've been in relationship with Denmark - that needs to end. We've spilled more blood protecting Greenland than the Danes... we are the dominant predator force in the Western Hemisphere"

finally deactivated my twitter account (didn't use it much), but had resisted because unfortunately, there were still some local accounts that gave me useful information and are not present on Bluesky. Oh well 🤷. Glad that's over. I feel better already.

Why are buying their F-35s? It may be a moot point in terms of offensive capabilities (against the US military) but certainly makes zero sense to support the American military-industrial complex at this time.
This press conference should be a wakeup call to anyone who (still) doesn't think Trump and America represent a clear threat to Canada's sovereignty and independence.

Cuba is clearly next. Then who?

@leebee4life.bsky.social Thank you for stating this so simply and plainly. It is unacceptable and he is despicable. End of story. And thank you for not adding (as some do) 'but here we are'. Adding that little phrase (imo) is a sign of acquiescence.
I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.
