Gigantic crowd in NYC for the #HandsOff march against Trump, Musk, and MAGA. So many people that the participants can barely move along. Signs decrying Trump and Co. on many fronts: immigration, science, Social Security, reproductive rights, tariffs, autocracy, kleptocracy & the price of eggs.

Raskin: We even have the right to call the president deranged for crashing our economy, destroying $6 trillion of wealth and turning our 401(k) Into a 201 (K). And the press has the right to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of Mexico.

The #CBC is a pillar of our Canadian identity.
Our Liberal plan will strengthen it with long-term funding, a modernized mandate to ensure #Canadians are more involved & an independent process to ensure it is not dependent on political will.
That’s how you make #CanadaStrong.

Launching the Economic Version of the Iraq War.
Tariffs are like military actions. They're ‘good’ or ‘bad’ based on specifics: Why, how, at what cost, toward what end. Donald Trump has just committed US power in a profoundly stupid way.
