Trump left office down 2.9M jobs & increased the debt by $8.4T. President Biden created 16M jobs with a further increase of $4.3T to the national debt. How did 78M Americans believe Biden destroyed the economy? Can democracy live if Americans can no longer see the truth?

China has been reforming education from "drill-and-kill" to a problem-based learning approach. Perhaps something we should be looking at as our cell phone addicted children are suffering cognitive decline...

Trump wants to promote domestic industry. Yes, this makes sense. However, domestic industry will not be built overnight - it will take years and years. Meanwhile, the tariffs he plans to enact will cause great economic suffering for Americans & push away allies when we need them..

The "comeback" of a criminal isn't a celebration. It's a tragedy. Celebration of this darkness to sell magazine's is another example of how the media is no longer in pursuit of the truth and on the side of "right."

Trump advisors want to "shrink bank regulation" putting our economic foundation at risk. No one "likes" regulation but it is critically necessary because many will pursue their self-interest with no regard for the repercussions. Failures like SVB and First Republic will be a regular event.

Some will declare fealty publicly. Some privately.

Make no mistake, they will all protect their own interests before defending the country that made them rich.

Reminder that it's not too late for a forensic audit of the vote. Trumps team got access to the voting machine software, and without an audit, we will never know if they found exploits in the software.

BREAKING: Merrick Garland began investigating Trump and the coup the week he got to the DoJ. It was actually Trump holdovers in the FBI that were reluctant to investigate.

Actually it’s not breaking. It came out in March. But cable news decided not to tell you. www.nytimes.com/2024/03/22/u...

The Lancet estimates that 68,000 people die annually due to lack of healthcare or denied healthcare.

Since corporations are people, then why are health insurance corporate policies that deny life saving medicine to patients who will die without that medicine, not deemed as intentional murder?

We have a peculiar historical event shaping up where the oligarch billionaire class is about to fleece this country while most of their supporters are working people who are convinced that they are on their side because they hate migrants & trans people.

As most of us know already -- Putin's massive, global fascist disinformation, propaganda and slander machine - which they used to get their corrupt, extorted puppet traitor Trump installed twice to power - they've also been using to divide and to destroy Western Democracies all across the planet...
As #Trump and #Musk continue to antagonize #Canada and escalate attacks on PM #Trudeau, #Russia's disinformation and influence campaign is ramping up in unison.

Experts warn that Canada is sleepwalking into a Russian made political disaster, needs to fight back and take stronger measures.
Russia’s propaganda machine is running roughshod in Canada
Moscow’s disinformation is often shared unwittingly by Canadians who don’t know its origin or purpose. Canada needs to fight it with stronger actions.
