We’re strongest when we’re united. So we must protect the things that bring us together — like CBC/Radio-Canada.

I don’t think this is shocking to anyone. It’s really concerning to see attacks on media, especially from the right who want to spew misinformation and don’t want anyone calling them on it.

If you are an NC resident and voted in November, please check if your name or the names of any family areone of the 60K votes being challenged. If so, confirm ASAP with your Board of Elections. You only have two weeks.

The website to check linked in the reply.

The majority wrote that, even though they have the authority to completely throw out the contested ballots, they decided to instead mandate a cure period for most of the challenged voters.

What. The. Actual. F.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

Overwhelmingly the biggest saving that Musk has delivered to the American people is that they can now buy Tesla stock much more cheaply.
Tesla stock has lost one-third of its value since Trump became president and Musk became whatever he is now.
The company was worth $1.35 TRILLION dollars then. It's worth $929 Billion now. That's a loss of $421 billion
