The system needs to evolve. Canada Post must modernize, and the government must act.

Mail disruptions hurt Canadian charities — delaying donations, tax receipts, & vital communication with supporters. Many still rely on Canada Post to fundraise & operate.

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

Can't repeat this often enough: if they can disappear immigrants without due process they can disappear YOU too.
If you think suspending Habeas Corpus "just for undocumented immigrants" is acceptable, remember that there would be NO HEARINGS and NO LEGAL RECOURSE for ANYONE detained in this way

So all they have to do is CLAIM that YOU are an undocumented immigrant to DISAPPEAR YOU

What Pope Francis represented - and the change and compassion he brought - to the Catholic Church meant a lot to many of us. A caring man, working to improve an imperfect organization in unsettling times.

He leaves an enormous legacy and he will be missed.
