Then covered it up again when caught.
Now, after fighting for years, the data is public: trans suicide increased 5x in the country.

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

This is bleak: Jes Staley, currently CEO of Barclays, reassuring Epstein that popular revolt against financial elites is unlikely because capitalism and pop culture have defanged social movements, leaving people more invested in consumption than justice.

JD Vance's Conservative MP bestie, Jamil Jivani, seems to be going rogue.
Yesterday, in a video with no CPC branding, Jivani announced a trip to the U.S. to help Canada get a trade deal.
But uh, I don't think anyone asked him for this.
So why is he doing it?
My guess: he wants Poilievre's job.

the thing is that the idea that "there are universal rights that everyone should have, and that states should always protect" is a liberal idea. Conservatives have never believed that; the conservative project has *always* been about creating a category of people that rights don't apply to.
Going to be a lot of hand-wringing about hypocrisy but I think a lot of supposed conservatives were always pretty clear that they meant *people we like* get to carry guns, protest, and have due process rights, and people we don't like are outside that

Listen. The average person just doesn’t need training to know that it’s wrong to kill people.
This is not some big complex problem that requires expertise to get right. If ICE is killing people, it’s from a lack of morality, not a lack of knowledge.
