Congressman Chi Ossé pressed Democratic Socialists of America to endorse his primary challenge against House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries: “The national leader of the Democratic Party could be anywhere in America,” he said. “Right now, it’s a man whose millions from AIPAC become billions for bombs.” Ossé pointed to more than $150,000 raised and 1,000 volunteers already committed, arguing the left has “an obligation of circumstance” to “try.”

What a joke. Hoekstra should try standup.

"“I go around the country and people will say, Pete you just don't understand why we're so mad about the 51st state and it's kind of like, yeah, you're right, I don't,” Hoekstra said, referencing Trump’s repeated comments about wanting to annex Canada."

This is a terrible fucking idea. What the hell are sex workers supposed to do, here? If they had a prior conviction for, say, shoplifting, or maybe they took a coercive plea deal years ago, they could be barred from working with OF? Are they expected to starve?

This doesn't help anyone, at all!

It always messes me up that #MTG could mean either Marjorie Taylor Green or Magic: the Gathering, so this mashup was inevitable.

⭕️ NEW: Palestinian Factions Warn U.S. Gaza Plan Imposes Foreign Control and Undermines Sovereignty Palestinian factions issued a memorandum rejecting the U.S. draft Security Council resolution that would deploy an international force in Gaza, warning it amounts to foreign guardianship and a framework that is entirely “biased in favor of the occupation.” They say the plan strips Palestinians of authority by handing Gaza’s administration and reconstruction to a supra-national body, risks manipulating aid for political ends, and threatens UNRWA’s role. The factions reject any clause on disarmament, noting the right to resist as an inherent, internationally protected right for occupied people. They argue the proposed force would effectively serve Israel unless placed fully under UN authority and coordinated only with Palestinian institutions. The memo opposes any foreign military presence or bases in Gaza and calls instead for international monitoring of Israeli violations and for the Arab–Islamic administration model of post-war Gaza governance that is rooted in Palestinian self-determination.

Mark Carney is about to announce more of his “elbows up” major projects.

But under the surface, one that’s being sold as an Indigenous-led LNG project is actually — spoiler — American as hell.

That’s not even the worst part!

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.
As a Black Hawk helicopter roared overhead, the slender, 28-year-old immigrant from Venezuela answered softly, his eyes darting to a television crew invited to film the raid. Next to Caicedo, masked Border Patrol agents inspected another man’s tattoos and asked him if he belonged to Tren de Aragua, the Venezuelan gang that the Trump administration has designated a terrorist group. Until that moment, Caicedo’s only interaction with law enforcement in his two-and-a-half years in the United States had been a traffic stop two weeks earlier for driving without a license or insurance, according to the records we reviewed. Chicago police had run a background check on him and found no prior arrests, no warrants and no evidence that he was in a gang. Caicedo said he had a pending asylum application, a steady job at a taco joint and a girlfriend whose daughter attended elementary school across the street. None of that mattered. The U.S. government paraded him and his neighbors in front of the cameras and called their arrests a spectacular victory against terrorism. But later, after the cameras had gone, prosecutors didn’t charge Caicedo with a crime. They didn’t accuse him of being a terrorist. And after a brief hearing in immigration court, the government sent him back to the country he had fled nine years earlier. “I lost everything,” he said in a phone interview from his mother’s home in the Venezuelan city of Valencia. “For those fools, everyone from Venezuela is a criminal.”

I just walked out of federal court where I pleaded NOT GUILTY to the charges against me.

I will continue to stand up to authoritarianism and call this out for what it is: a political prosecution.

CBC once again called the Ksi Lisims LNG project “Indigenous-led” on the National last night, despite the fact that it’s 100% American-owned by a Texas shell company, Western LNG.

Dr. James Talbot, Alberta's former CMO of health, says the #UCP should be "embarrassed" by its role in Canada losing its #measles elimination status.

Hi.

I’ve been editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue for the last 4.5 years — a dream job, one I never thought a Brown girl from small town Louisiana might hold.

I am so incredibly proud of the work we’ve done and what we accomplished. Our journalism has won major awards. (cont’d)

“I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.”

aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...
I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time. Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again. An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next. Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.

Hi Bluesky 👋

Small life update: I’m at the centre of a multimillion dollar lawsuit in Alberta launched by a failed candidate for Jason Kenney’s UCP

It may be the longest and most expensive media trial in Canadian history

I’m ready to go public about it and I want to share more details with you 🧵
