Bluesky is great! Much more diverse topics.
I still default to politics but this time i hope to focus more in Canadien 🇨🇦 issues. It's never been more important.
I will still pray for my American 🇺🇸 friends.

We’ve all heard the F word quite a bit these days. I’m talking, of course, about fascism.
But what is its exact definition? What forms has it taken in the past? And is it happening here? https://youtu.be/jWYqrVsBvwI

The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker.

It sometimes feels like the Democratic party is complicit in its own demise. It's just sheer luck that the MAGA movement is developing cracks because not even they want to protect another pedophile.
There's still loyalty among them but it is waning.

It's really hard to understand why Schumer and Jeffries aren't screaming about the almost daily lies of Karoline Leavitt. Isn't that their job? They should be replaced before the midterms, but they probably won't be. Come on Dems. Forget tradition and alliances and put the country first.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

ICE now has a budget bigger than most militaries around the world and has increased spending on weapons.
It's also engaging in a race to recruit 10,000 new agents who will eventually be out in American streets.
Some will be vetted, but how many unqualified recruits will fall through the cracks?
