"By using the notwithstanding clause pre-emptively... the UCP is not simply admitting that their laws are breaching Charter rights and bypassing the courts. They are further admitting that their laws cannot be justified in a free and democratic society."

The UCP has invoked the notwithstanding clause pre-emptively. Again. This time to strip the Charter rights of trans children and adults.

This is sadly and entirely predictable from a populist government bent on removing checks on its power. 🧵

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.

Cull the Democratic Party. Systematically chip away all the weak, corporate centrists and corrupt, gutless elected officials who refuse to fight and instead suck at the teat of the oligarchy.

No.

Hope that helps.

If you don’t know Lina Khan, now is a great time to know about her. She’s now on Zohran Mamdani’s transition team. She’s also the former FTC Chair, only 36, & committed to leveling the playing field for everyday Americans. She is an absolute star. This is what hope feels like.

Okay, so I did it. In honor of Sandwich Guy, on what should be the last day of his trial, I figured out the chords. And so, with apologies to the late and great Bob Marley, I banged out this quick and (very) rough rendition of "I Threw the Sandwich." 🤣

Huge movement in the formerly red suburbs of Greater Cincinnati tonight.

School board flips. Local city hall and township seats. Judicial flips.

All historic.

Every Canadian should know that the reason Canada’s O’Learys can afford to run people over with expensive boats is because they’re not taxed at a rate proportional to working Canadians. They accumulate wealth rapidly & create an oligarchy.
Everyone should pay their fair share.

Excellent report to the Canadian Senate on antisemitism and online extremism. Everything he says captures my experiences of hate and vile harassment from 2020-2025. We need to enforce our legislation and address hate that is produced, distributed, and amplified online.
