Anyway, shout out to the Liberals for helping cement more xenophobia in Canadian society by adopting the conservative view that immigration is bad.
Surely, encouraging the electorate to become more hateful and frightened won't ever bite them in the ass.

Marimar Martinez is displaying an enormous amount of courage.
An ICE agent shot her five times. Called her a “b*tch” and bragged “5 shots 7 holes”.
They tried to kill her.
Rather than cowering, she’s using her voice to warn others.
Thank you Ms Martinez.

Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

In an effort to cut costs and boost efficiency, Trump's Education Department spent an estimated $28 to $38 million last year on layoffs at its Office of Civil Rights.
Roughly half of its civil rights employees were fired. Almost all the complaints were thrown out.

Seriously, how many murders are they covering up?
Only Epstein and Maxwell have ever been prosecuted in relation to what must have been an industrial scale operation of sex trafficking, rape, paedophilia, and now it seems murder as well.
All the while the MAGA cultists diminish, deny and obfuscate

Hold on, I missed this when they released another partial batch of the Epstein files.
Todd Blanche admitted the DOJ excluded CSAM as well as images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from the release.
“death, physical abuse, or injury”
“death, physical abuse”
“death”

This week on The North State. @arnokopecky.bsky.social of @nationalobserver.com went to the federal Conservative convention to report. Why he wasn’t approved for a press pass? He was told “I don’t know.” We discuss the right-wing freezing out of journalists and the role of social media influencers.
