In a democracy, the government is accountable to citizens. Trump officials believe citizens are accountable to them, on penalty of death.
Q: Between your agency and ICE, we've known seen 2 people shot and killed with 17 days. Do either of you plan to take any accountability?
BOVINO: You're correct. Two suspects have been shot. And suspects that assault or threaten a law enforcement officer's life, it goes back to poor choices.

This doesn't just go away. The Trump regime wants to annex Canada, and will continue to ratchet up the effort.
Trump’s back to threatening 100% tariffs on Canada this morning, wow I can’t imagine why the Canadians now see the Chinese as a more reliable trade partner

After the World Trade Center was attacked (just four miles from Trump Tower), more than 40,000 Canadians in uniform fought alongside their U.S. allies in Afghanistan.
More than 2,000 Canadians were wounded.
These 158 didn't make it home.
And now this guy is giving lectures on gratitude.

Polls like this make me so frustrated. The Liberals and, even moreso the NDP, have GOT to figure out how to reach young people. There is zero reason Conservatives should be polling like this except for their opponents clearly not understanding or embracing what they should stand for.

Cripes a’mighty people, Steven Miller is not staging a militarized ethnic cleansing and sending the border cops to murder people in the street to distract from the Epstein files. He’s doing it because he and Trump (and Vance and Homan and Noem etc) really really want to.

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.
Jerome Powell: "This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation."

“The threat of criminal charges is a consequence of the Federal Reserve setting interest rates based on our best assessment of what will serve the public, rather than following the preferences of the president,” Powell said.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said the US central bank had been served grand jury subpoenas from the Justice Department threatening a criminal indictment, a dramatic escalation of the Trump administration’s attacks on the Fed.

So, to summarize:
- Genuis initially claimed that his event was cancelled by the student union, and he wasn't told why
- After being pressed, Genuis admitted that it was instead the Student Centre that cancelled his event, and he *was* told the reason quite clearly.
What a lying little weasel.
