Everyone is giving Canada credit for being the ones to stand up to felon. I think we all must acknowledge that the Mexican President was the first to stand up to him and not show fear. Once she did, others did as well. Thank you Mexico, Canada, Panama, Greenland, Denmark, President Zelenskyy, EU…❤️

Democracy is burning, and we need sites like Bluesky more than ever. And Senator Durbin wants to repeal 230, which would massively stifle the ability of sites like Bluesky to exist, while massively empowering X and Meta.
