Anti UCP proud Canadian Liberal and Social Democrat. Pro-union, anti-billionaire, feminist, anti-fascist, science is my religion, pro vaccine, pro masking. #Carney4Canada.
Don't underestimate the effectiveness of MAGA cheating. They have elevated it to a science. How do you think Trump won the last election?
Disagree!!

The gerrymandering will do the exact opposite of what the republicans are hoping!!

You can’t gerrymander 20-40points!!

And Texas is actually a blue state as it has more registered dems!

They wouldn't dare, because of the backlash.
Then what happens when a CA fuel laden tanker is intercepted and boarded by US coast guard troops?

So, why no security clearance then?
Do they actually believe that we’re gonna fall for that? PP as a martial arts black belt? 😂😂😂
What in the it's a cult is going on here?

Let's show the FCC and Brendan Carr the biggest FUCK YOU possible by watching and sharing this interview with @jamestalarico.bsky.social and @colbertlateshow.bsky.social

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WILL NOT BE CENSORED.
This is the interview Donald Trump didn’t want you to see.

His FCC refused to air my interview with Stephen Colbert.

Trump is worried we’re about to flip Texas.

Colbert could not have him on and could not mention not having him on.

In the most conservative religious societies, blasphemy is punishable by death and just talking about *blasphemy laws* is considered blasphemy.

CBS spiked Stephen Colbert's interview with James Talarico.

But the segment is posted on YouTube, and you can view it below.

Take a moment to watch an interview that CBS and the FCC don't want you to see.

It already has over 1M views.

Let's give it millions more.

This sounds to me like another excuse for ambulance chasers (aka lawyers) to capitalize on a pandemic. Anything for a buck. No wonder people hate lawyers.
I have very mixed feelings about this, but generally speaking think it's a ridiculous lawsuit. Did the university experience during covid match what students would have had without covid? Of course not. But this was the case for *every single human on planet Earth*.
I feel so miserable about this. Nearly broke myself working 16, 18 hour days during the pandemic. We did everything we possibly could, then doubled it, tripled it. HE is still struggling to get back off the floor, years later. Now another financial punch in the face.

Name calling won't help. Everyone already knows America has descended into fascism. Saying it out loud won't help at this stage. Smart Canadians are being quiet and working hard behind the scenes.

Florida is a shit hole. No self respecting Canadian should go there.
It is getting more expensive for old people to move there, more dangerous for immigrants to move there, and less convenient for young people to stay there.
With FL demographics as they are, that's a terrible population to aim for in increasing the workforce. www.wlrn.org/business/202...

CBS shows what authoritarian capture of the media looks like, writes @chrislehmann.bsky.social. Stephen Colbert, at least, is pushing back.

CBS Surrenders to Trump
The network tried to bury an interview critical of Trump. Stephen Colbert made it an indictment of the administration's assaults on the First Amendment.

Equal time. Sure.
So if Colbert wants to interview a Democratic candidate, he has to give equal time to a nazi candidate.
Fascism sucks.
Late-night host Stephen Colbert said his interview with Democratic TX Senate candidate James Talarico was pulled from last night’s broadcast over network fears it would violate Trump admin regulatory guidance on equal time for political candidates.

Donald Trump’s FCC pushed CBS to scrap the interview of Texas Democrat James Talarico with Stephen Colbert last night on the eve of early voting for the Texas Senate primary.

This is the dictator playbook.

Sadly, no. Republican MAGA cheating will ensure a Trump win.

You are either on Team Canada or Team Trump. You can't be both. Now, is a good time to chose a side.
It's THIS WEEK! Medicine Hat too!
Let's show #UCP-MAGA that we are Canadians, that we value our complicated, flawed, but still free country.
That we want our government to uplift Canada.

Republicans are scared this candidate could flip Texas in November and based on this interview, he could well do that

He seems very electable
