How long until someone rises up and starts killing the terrorists MAGA has sent out to arbitrarily arrest people who dare to speak up? Every nation needs to advise that the USA is a no-go zone now.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

Saw Cabaret last night (at a live theater in Woodstock) and boy does it hit hard with how things are going stateside. People saying 'it is just politics' and 'things wont change'. Sadly those who don't learn from history repeat it, and those who do learn see it come back due to those who won't learn

Well, Ford's incompetence continues - www.thestar.com/news/ontario... - somehow his $200 bribes are using old names people haven't used in over 40 years in some cases. And this guy claims he can run a province? No wonder we've seen billions lost in an assortment of horrid ideas by him.
An Ontario woman’s $200 ‘tax rebate’ cheque had an odd error and couldn’t be deposited. What to do if yours does, too

All of us who love research into space need to sign the letter of support here. Especially any Americans. This is a reminder of how messed up things are when stuff like this, where most costs are up front, are in danger of being cancelled during the low-cost, high-return stage of its life.
Chandra, the space-based observatory that brings us incredible x-ray images of the most extreme environments in the cosmos, is at risk of cancellation. It’ll be a huge loss to astronomy if the mission ends prematurely for budget reasons. Go to www.savechandra.org to find out how to help #SaveChandra
