COVID is now in its 7th year. The US faces a 12th wave, with 1.2M recorded deaths. Global deaths near 27M, the true death toll is far higher. Transmission remains high (~1 million infections/day), reinfections are widespread, and Long COVID remains a mass-disabling condition affecting millions.
Public health collapsing as COVID pandemic enters its 7th year
The systematic dismantling of public health services in the United States, including childhood vaccinations that have saved millions of lives, is a historic crime committed by the US ruling elite.

Our politicians were able to get off TikTok -- so why not from Twitter?

The platform is letting its users create non-consensual sexual deepfakes of women and kids. That can't be the price of public participation in our digital down square.

Our government MUST act.

We’re one week into 2026, and U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration is already reaching new levels of impunity.

So uh, could a Canadian leader with a backbone please stand up??

I'm back, and I'm pissed about this cowardice (and in some cases, outright acquiescence):
