While the right lose their goddamn minds about a lone wolf doing something horrendous in DC today, let’s not forget that last week in the White House they all gushed over a genocidal, journalist murdering tyrant whose country financed 9/11.

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been hated by the left for years and never feared for her life. She’s been hated by the right for two days and had to hire security.

A quote from former Alberta premier Ralph Klein I hadn't come across before (in a column @senatorpaulasimons.bsky.social wrote in 2024).

Senator Sanders argues that the capitulation to Republicans on the shutdown plays into Donald Trump's hands and his narrative that Democrats are weak.

1. Carney NEVER said that he would get the tariff's off by July.
2. In Carney's bail bill, he DOES have harsher penalties for domestic violence.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

Trump is going to do that anyway. Carney has to play this carefully. Deliberately riling up Trump would do what exactly? It would make things worse, not better.

And this is why PM Carney leads Canada. And not me or the rest of us here who would be itching to tell him to fuck off. Carney is not looking to make a friend, he’s rangling a fiend. Don’t lose your shit over carefully worded diplomacy. That’s all it is, business.

This cannot be stated enough. Short games are important, but you also need some that play the long game—this is the long game by Carney, and being real about things, wisely protecting Canada as much as Canada can be protected at this time, imo.

Stop bashing 🇨🇦 PM Carney because he won't start a war with the demented guy in the White House. The PM is being diplomatic and handling him with kid gloves because the madman could make matters far worse for Canada on a whim. If anyone doesn't understand that, I'm glad they're not in government.

Trump is threatening to withhold back pay for federal workers furloughed during the shutdown — which goes against a law he signed in 2019, by the way.

This should come as no surprise: Trump and his businesses have been accused of stiffing hundreds of their own workers out of pay over the years.

It would be great if @cdnpress.bsky.social could actually acknowledge that the administration of justice is a provincial responsibility, and that Ford's government is the biggest problem with bail, not the Criminal Code.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.
