#PierrePoilievre & #Conservatives, are not “Canada First”. They are destructive fascists who want to take a wrecking ball to 🇨🇦.

Instead of leaving 🇨🇦 & moving to the fascist regimes they support, they want to destroy 🇨🇦 & all of our higher ideals. #Elxn2025 is existentially consequential. #Never51

Although this is not a surprise, it's still a f*cking tragedy.
Donald Trump has frozen the US law banning bribery of and by foreign officials.

The order puts in place a 180-day "pause" to all investigations under the FCPA, no new ones can be opened during that period, it will also halt other Justice Department "actions.”

So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”?

But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"?

Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.

As the party of fiscal responsibility, we know better than anyone what a good contract is for friends and how much they deserve to be paid.

The public doesn't need to concern themselves with these minor details. Sam Mraiche and MHCare were compensated well.
