We can't lecture the world about shredding the international rules-based order and then pal around with the people who have been shredding it before our very eyes for the last 2 years - not to mention all the decades of occupation and apartheid that preceded this horrific moment.

Conservatives are about to decide whether to keep Pierre Poilievre on as leader.
It's a big moment at a convention that has already featured "content creators" accredited over actual journalists.
Far-right losers are also protesting outside, trying to push for Trump-like mass deportations:

Amber Bracken is one of Canada’s greatest photojournalists, and for the RCMP to mistake observers for participants, arrest her and prevent her from doing her vital work is a deeply dangerous precedent. This case is important for all of us.
Reminder: journalists get arrested in Canada too.
In fact, The Narwhal is in court right now challenging the RCMP for arresting photojournalist Amber Bracken. Our editor-in-chief,Carol Linnitt, testifies today and Monday, and court is open to the public if you're in Vancouver.

Kansas just passed a monstrous bill enabling criminal penalties and vigilante lawsuits for trans people using the bathroom according to their gender identity and requires them to surrender their current drivers licenses and birth certificates if it does not match their sex assigned at birth.

Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

Trump: "Minnesota, and in particular Minneapolis -- because it's not all of Minnesota -- every city that we've gone to literally crime has gone down 50, 60, 70, 80, in Washington it has gone down to practically no crime ... it's down in Minneapolis very much" (DHS has killed 2 people here)

Y’all, this is Nikema Levy Armstrong & the GoFundMe page for legal fees has not received much attention in spite of her bravery in speaking out against that ICE field office pastor & being badly smeared by this regime for doing so.
She stood up for us, let’s not leave her hanging:
