A massive crowd of lawyers packed Manhattan’s Foley Square today to publicly reaffirm their oaths to the constitution and against the Trump regime.

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

Canadians bombarded with rightwing content on Musk’s X ahead of election FT analysis finds network of social media accounts attacking Liberal leader Mark Carney

“A Financial Times analysis of more than 350,000 posts on X related to the election, gathered since the snap poll was announced in March, revealed a network of co-ordinated accounts pushing content to boost Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and tarnish his counterpart, the Liberal’s Mark Carney.”

Central Paris bike-lane filled with people riding bikes.

Remember, Paris wasn’t “always this way.”

Not that many years ago, Paris was choking in car traffic. And it wasn’t a safe place to ride a bike for transportation, so not many people tried.

This is new. This is a result of deliberate vision, and bold leadership.

Cities are a result of choices.

From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.

Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

The problems Pierre Poilievre has with the fact that if he wants to win, he has to REALLY attack Trump:

1. He doesn’t WANT to, because he supports Trump.

2. Many of his supporters support Trump too, and could abandon him to vote for the even more extreme right.

3. No one will believe him anyway.

Furious Poilievre criticizes Trump tariffs for uniting Canadians

It's simple. Everyone in the US enjoys the protections of the Constitution - even visitors. So if someone commits a crime here, you give them due process here. You charge them here, try them here, and sentence them here. You don't deport them to an offshore torture prison.

There are SO, SO many!

Can the riding of Brooks-Medicine Hat recall Premier Smith? It will cost $500. Will need to collect 40% of the riding with in person signatures. Of 35000 eligible voters, only 13000 (or so) voted for Smith. Someone from the riding has to initiate. #ableg #cdnpoli www.elections.ab.ca/recall-initi...

Fascism doesn’t start with gas chambers.
It starts with book bans, propaganda,
and blaming minorities for everything wrong in society.

Quisling (noun): a traitor who collaborates with an enemy force.

Don't be afraid to call things by what they are. MAGA is a terrorist organization, ICE is a secret police force conducting Ethnic Cleansing, Elon Musk is an oligarch, and Trump is a foreign backed coup d'état figurehead. This is not an administration, this is a regime, and your country is occupied.

Elbows up, Canada.

Stressed and depressed? Me too. You should check out this open access online Land Back course by the Yellowhead Institute instead of continuing to doomscroll.

For those countries, including mine, that are having national elections soon, let this all be a stark reminder that, in fact, politicians AREN’T “all the same.”

She knew!

Yes, he explicitly continues to say that he wants Canada to be securely inside the border of the United States.

I’m 100% serious about this, in upcoming elections and every election. Vote for someone with integrity, who is very smart and effective, and who Elon Musk doesn’t want to win.

Political prisoner Leonard Peltier

President Biden has commuted the sentence of Leonard Peltier He will serve the remainder of his sentence in home confinement:

Neo-Nazis Love the Nazi-Like Salutes Elon Musk Made at Trump's Inauguration The far right is celebrating what it views as a clear signal from the X owner and Donald Trump associate, who made the gestures on stage Monday.

If it looks like a Nazi salute, and Nazis around the world loved seeing it, perhaps it was in fact a Nazi salute.

An "odd looking salute" - so says the Toronto Star.
There is nothing odd about fascism.
It's arrogance and it's evil.

So I'm standing in the grocery store parking lot and it's freaking cold.
A very classy old woman sees me and walks the entire distance across the lot.
"You give that man shit," she says.
Then walks away.
That's Canada.
The criminal might buy off porn stars.
He will never force Canada to bend.
