Watch one thing today: THIS.

“Despair is not an option.

Giving up is not acceptable.”

Prime Minister Carney ran on a platform to defend Canada's interests.
He has no mandate to spend billions on a satellite/drone/missile scheme that turns over our air space to Donald Trump.
Even being willing to entertain discussions sends a signal that our sovereignty is negotiable.
It's not.

Spend some thought about which AI solutions you’re keen for employees to adopt at work. #TechBros’ politics infect their AI platforms worse than any malware could.

Grok is also denying the holocaust now.

Elon Musk is a Nazi.

Peter Thiel is a Nazi.

Stephen Miller is a Nazi.

This is a white supremacist occupation backed by like-minded techno-fascist billionaires.

What’s up With All These White South African Billionaires?

Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and their fascist billionaire friends have worked for years to destroy democracy, and it's time we all start talking about it.

Maybe you should have voted “yes” when @algreen.house.gov put forward articles of impeachment, all those Democrats and Republicans who voted “no” today in the House vote. Just a thought.

I’m sorry for all the sane Americans who are facing very dark times ahead.

Just remember when you vote in the #FederalElection that MAGA-funded truckers held my hometown’s downtown hostage. And in the heart of Ottawa’s core, #PierrePolliviere fed them coffee and donuts. He played “tea party” with them rather than supporting and prioritizing Ottawa’s liberty and safety.

These are not detainments—they are kidnappings.

These are not deportations—they are human trafficking.

These are not detention centers—they are concentration camps.

Language matters.

This is fascism.

Never forget.

A tweet by Max Burns (@themaxburns
) reads: "From the U.S. Holocaust Museum: 'What distinguishes a concentration camp from a prison (in the modern sense) is that it functions outside of a judicial system. The prisoners are not indicted or convicted of any crime by judicial process.' Welp."

@markhamillofficial.bsky.social - can you please read and post the “Do not retaliate and you will be rewarded” fascist White House tweet in your signature Joker voice? You’re the hero we need but don’t deserve.
