The political right has chosen blatant lying as a political strategy.

"..constant lying is not aimed at making the people believe a lie, but at ensuring that no one believes anything anymore.
A people that can no
longer distinguish between truth and lies cannot distinguish between right and wrong...With such a people, you can do whatever you want."

-Hannah Arendt, (Oct, 1906 - Dec, 1975)
German historian and philosopher

A hack has revealed over 90,000 names, email addresses and locations of people who donated to the Canadian trucker convoy protesting the vaccine mandate for cross-border travel into the U.S. and other COVID-19 restrictions. More than half of the donors were from the U.S., the hacked records show.

[Poilievre] knows that any squeeze on the Canadian economy is courtesy of the White House & not the Canadian govt.
Mr. Poilievre knows all of that because he’s not stupid. But he seems to think the people listening to him are.

Adelita Grijalva won her election to Congress over two weeks ago, but Mike Johnson still hasn't sworn her in.

Why the delay?

Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

Great point from @mjtoma.bsky.social: Millions of us absolutely do see what's happening to the USA.

"We are horrified, shocked, enraged, and ashamed. We are acting, in a thousand ways, to oppose it. This cannot, and will not, be how the United States ends."

We really need to spread this everywhere. This story is breaking through, even to MAGA folks. ICE is out of control, waging indiscriminate violence. Even on members of the clergy.
