Retired USask education professor. 🇨🇦 Grew up in a Keynesian society, thought it was fine. I despise the neoliberalism of my adulthood. What is trying to replace it, global authoritarianism, terrifies me even more.📎🌎

Sanders: The American people do not want this country to be an authoritarian society or an oligarchy. We have our differences, that’s what democracy is about—we argue it out. We don’t throw people who disagree in jail. We don’t intimidate the media. We don’t send ICE agents to shoot people.

Around the world, politicians and businessmen are resigning from their positions because of the Epstein Files.

Except in the United States.

Here: Zero shame, zero consequences.

We need resignations, investigations, impeachments, and punishments now. Should have been years ago.

Regulations are what keeps ordinary Americans healthy and, often, alive.

It took spoiled meat and rodent droppings out of our food. It took harmful lead out of our gasoline and paint. It took poison out of our water.

Deregulation only achieves one goal: making rich corporations richer.

That’s great that Mexico is coming through to help the people of Cuba. To hell with Trump and the suffering he is causing across the world.

When Pam Bondi was Florida's Attorney General, and was busy ignoring Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, much like now, she took a $25,000 bribe from Donald Trump to drop her investigation into consumer fraud at Trump University.

Donald knew she'd be a corrupt US AG and do as she was told.

Just like with Brazil arresting their insurrectionists rather than re-electing them, other countries are holding their Epstein-tied politicians accountable far better than we do. www.bbc.com/news/article...

I just voted to cancel Trump’s reckless tariffs on Canada. This is a major victory for the American people and for Congress reclaiming our constitutional authority over tariffs. And, it's a defeat for Trump and Speaker Johnson, who for months blocked the House from taking this vote.

What are Republicans focused on today? Creating loopholes that allow weapons be sold without background checks, serial numbers, and basic accountability safeguards.

Khanna: "Here we have a sitting cabinet member, Lutnick, who's all over the files as having a business relationship allegedly and personal relationship alleged after Epstein was convicted. He's allegedly lied about his relationship. And there's no consequence. We need to get real in this country."

I hope Dems begin to see that moderate or progressive, AIPAC is not our friend.

They endorse January 6th insurrectionists. Yet if you so much as suggest the US uphold its own Leahy laws, no matter your record, they will work against you.

According to the New Yorker, Donald Trump and his family profited off the presidency by an estimated $4 billion in 2025 — mostly through shady crypto deals.

That amounts to $456,621 per hour.

But how are you doing?

Tax cuts for giant corporations and the super rich.

Paid for by cuts to the social safety net for everyone else.

Trickle-up economics.
