After Hitler was elected his stormtroopers began grabbing people (Jews, socialists & enemies) off the street and stuck them in basements and other "wild" jails where they were abused & killed. To solve this unregulated terror, the Nazis came up with a solution. They called them concentration camps.

Because he's losing with a massive popularity deficit. Someone finally convinced him that the stakes are higher than his need to score cheap shots. Plus, he won't really be more collaborative, but he will keep saying it to see if his numbers improve. #cdnpoli
Why does Pierre Poilievre now have a more collaborative attitude towards the Liberal government? Strategists Susan Smith, @colewhogan.bsky.social and George Soules weight in on the matter.

So when asked if they "really, really" want to separate, only about 15% of "Albertans and Quebecers maintained their support after considering possible downsides such as standard of living declines, pension losses or trade renegotiations." #cdnpoli #ableg
3 in 10 Albertans would vote for independence — but only half committed to separating: poll | Globalnews ap236.com/JsZjR0 #abpoli #cdnpoli

It's hard to negotiate a fair trade deal with an administration that lies so easily. That was the gist of Carney's speech to the world at Davos. #cdnpoli #uspoli
“To be absolutely clear, and I said this to the president. I meant what I said in Davos,” PM Carney said to reporters on Parliament Hill, Tuesday
When asked specifically whether he did retract parts of the speech, as Bessent claimed, Carney said “no.”

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

They're trying to say it's not the president being racist. He's just echoing other people's words. Which in my book is being racist.

“Echo” is a euphemism for “We at the NY Times are too gutless to tell you the truth, which is ‘Yes, the Trump Administration has explicitly adopted White Supremacist messaging, ideology, and goals”.
