"Remaining on X is not a neutral act of any kind. It is neither pragmatic nor is it some sort of clever, hard-nosed comms strategy³. It is an endorsement...of a platform which has shown long before this that it simply cannot be trusted with even the most basic safeguarding responsibilities" 🎯🎯🎯
X ceased being a public square years ago, and over the last month, it’s degraded even further.

A platform that enables the creation non-consensual sexualised images of women and children cannot be treated as neutral ground - and governments choosing to stay are endorsing it.

Enough is enough.
Staying on X is an Endorsement - and It's Unforgivable
The UK government cannot claim to protect women and children while continuing to post on a platform that enables their abuse.

I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.

He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

“Putin doesn’t want peace.” After another night of terror in Kyiv, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy called out Russia’s lies, while Canada stepped up, announcing billions in economic and military support to defend Ukraine and build a just, lasting peace.

Welcome back to Canada, President Zelenskyy.

Today in Halifax, we committed critical new support to help Ukraine end Russia’s war of aggression, and to recover and rebuild. When peace comes — and it will come — Canada will be there for the Ukrainian people. Slava Ukraini. 🇨🇦🇺🇦

Ukraine’s cause — freedom, democracy, sovereignty — is Canada’s cause. At this critical juncture, we are reinforcing our support with up to $2.5B in new loan guarantees and other mechanisms to help Ukraine secure a just and lasting peace, and to recover and rebuild.

The truth always comes out it just takes time. So sad that law enforcement enabled these abhorrent criminals for 3 decades, no wonder the net is so wide.
Here is a copy of the complaint, which describes how Epstein threatened to “burn her house down”

HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files:

Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996.

The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed.

On Dec. 6, 1917 at 8:45 a.m., the Imo and Mont-Blanc (which was packed with explosives) collided in Halifax Harbour.
At 9:05 a.m., the Mont-Blanc exploded. The 2.9 kiloton blast levelled most of Halifax, killed 1,700 and injured 9,000.
This is the story.
