Remember when every leader wanted their picture taken with Greta? She is still that truth teller, they just can't face the truth of their crimes.
Greta Thunberg arrested for holding a sign opposing genocide.

When peaceful protest is a crime, democracy is in deep trouble.

Who's gonna look back at 2025 and wistfully tell their family about Carney building another pipeline?

That's not the kind of history any of us want to repeat.

That's why we're proposing a Green New Deal: solutions to make life affordable and keep our world livable.

There is no drift into authoritarianism in the United States. MAGA is driving full steam ahead. They now want to seize 5 years of your social media before letting you into the United States.

Jim Beam is shutting down its distillery for 2026. They blame a "glut" on the market even though the industry produced 55 million less gallons this year than last.
Some glut.
People aren't buying MAGA whiskey.

America's Vice President says the racist hater no longer need to bother with white hoods.
This guy is a good buddy of Jamil Jivani - Canada's low rent version of Charlie Kirk and the new rising star of the Poilievre caucus.

The behaviour of Israeli border guards toward Canadian MPs while they were travelling to visit Palestine is unacceptable.

If Israeli forces are willing to physically shove elected Canadian MPs, how are Palestinians living under occupation treated every day?

It’s been a year since the Liberals used Section 107 to squash the CUPW strike, and postal workers are still waiting for a fair deal. I stopped by the commemoration rally in Vancouver today, one of many nationwide.

When workers are under attack, there’s only one thing to do - stand up, strike back!

Some asked me recently if I’m ever affected by negative comments online.

While my answer was no, not at all. It got me thinking, why doesn’t it affect me?

Maybe the answer lies with the Lotus Flower 🪷.

This is obviously more bad news re: the AI bubble and coming bailouts, stated or unstated. The more personally invested Trump is in the hype cycle, the more he will use public money to delay truth time. But for now he has a notional technology saving his failed media company. Good times!
I've been waiting to find out exactly how Trump was going to personally profit from the AI greed frenzy he has unleashed because there was no way he was *not* going to get a piece.

Now we know: a $6-billion merger of his failing media corp with an AI energy corp

periodically I'll see a backlash that goes a little too far or seems kinda unfair. i never say anything because i think we need to be kinda unhinged and zealous in our response to this shit. I'd take an honest-to-God crusade against this stuff over letting it proliferate.
We can do even more.

Absolutely shameful, also absolutely predictable.

Israel acts with violence and impunity towards Canadian MPs?

The Carney government should impose immediate diplomatic & economic consequences.

This appalling treatment cannot be met by mushy words that ultimately amount to capitulation.

It is the exact hill to die on. Even if a person were completely self-absorbed, it would still be the hill to die on. Because civil rights are civil rights and Republicans are trying to use this issue to make Dems look weak and distract from the fact that the Republican Party protects pedophiles.

But when she called me, I Iearned why her staff told me the incident was worse than what's been reported -- and that TWO Israeli officials laid hands on an MP.

Here's what happened:

Tonight, we'll be exploring why rejecting militarism and investing in climate justice are part of the same fight: building a country where public services work, basic needs are affordable, and Canada is a voice for peace, not war.

Hope to see you there!
