Russia kidnaps Ukrainian children and gives them to Russians to erase their heritage and demoralize Ukraine. Over 20,000 so far. And the US just stopped helping track these kids and likely deleted the database of all the research. Pure evil, right maga?

Yes! Please!
Dear Canada, please cut off power during the Super Bowl to prove a strong point. Do it because you can. I know it is cold, and it will hurt those on the NE seabord, but even if for 3 or 4 hours, DO IT.

Show the US what you can do. Then do it and swing that cluebat.

Red state here. Hurt us.

Really, Canada?
Questions for the Canadians out there. There seemed to be a pro Trump conservative movement that dragged down Trudeau.

Is that movement getting stronger or weaker ?

Are the Dems rolling over? I expected to feel overwhelmed by the barrage of shit from the Orange Nightmare but I had hoped that the Dems would have voiced a full-throated response, fought back officially, done all in their power to at least slow the slide into Fascism. I'm in despair.

“Now that Trump has quickly shown his hand, any I-told-you-so impulse in the face of human suffering — even suffering self-invited by miscalculation — is counterproductive. It’s also a distraction from the crucial task of coalescing around a defensive strategy.”

The Trump Administration’s action to suspend all federal grants & loans will have a devastating impact on the health and well-being of millions of children, seniors on fixed incomes, and the most vulnerable people in our country.

It is a dangerous move towards authoritarianism.
