Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

While Trump spends millions of taxpayer $$ on a military parade for his birthday, we’ll be protesting.
We’re calling for millions of people in the streets to divert attention away, and to show America & the world—where the real power lies: with the people. #NoKings

Watching the election returns here in canada. Kind of stressful! Here all the ballots are paper, marked in pen or pencil and counted by actual humans. Makes them a lot more trusted and safe.

The Convoy showed how easily people would hurt others when they felt they wouldn't face consequences or their behaviour was given a tacit okay (police and government did nothing until Trudeau stepped in). It wasn't good
