One of the most sickening realizations I've ever had came when it hit me that six hundred years from now historians will be writing things like "while technically illegal, intercourse with minors was broadly accepted as normal among the American ruling class, and even a marker of status"

Are you concerned that Pierre Poilievre refuses to get national security clearance?
We are facing unprecedented level of threat from external forces and internal traitor groups.

Pierre Poilievre sails through leadership review as Conservatives deliver a strong endorsement | CBC News Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre pulled in an overwhelming share of the vote in his leadership review held Friday, a sign that the vast majority of party members are united behind his leadership.

It’s official. The #CPC is a full #MapleMAGA crypto-fascist project of lies.
87% of CPC delegates voted for #PierrePoilievre.

That is all you need to know. An internet troll whose only job for decades has been grifting off the public. #cdnpoli #NeverPoilievre

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

Controversial opinions:

1) Creating good-paying public sector jobs is good, actually.

2) Cutting taxes on the wealthy and subsidizing corporations so they will create low-paying jobs* is not so good, actually.

(* Mostly they just reinvest in the market, hide funds offshore, or buy another yacht)

We stand with Minnesota ✊ Selling armoured vehicles to ICE isn't Canada Strong. It's Canada COMPLICIT.

No more Canadian arms for ICE!!! act.gp/4rfbKi6

Leading American companies — including Palantir, Deloitte, and private prison giant GEO Group — raked in over $22B from ICE and CBP contracts last year.

Do not forget who is profiting from cruelty and human suffering.

JANE FONDA: “I know Don Lemon. My husband created CNN. And I will fight for their right to speak… they arrested the wrong Don. This is how autocrats act. We can’t fall for it.”

Oh my god, no :( this is so sad.

Um…bit bold to call the story I broke on Tuesday a “Star analysis” with zero credit to me!

This is such a bummer. I worked really hard on this one.

An ICE agent attempted to enter the Ecuadorian Consulate in Minneapolis, threatening the staff member who prevented him from entering.

Hello? ICE is so out of control that its agents think they can break international law.

Congress needs to rein them in yesterday.

Screenshot of an X.com post by The Associated Press (@AP) stating that dozens of immigrant families protested for better treatment behind fences at a Texas detention facility, where a 5-year-old Ecuadorian boy and his father were sent after being detained in Minnesota. Below is a video thumbnail showing a crowd gathered outdoors along a fenced walkway; many people wear bright blue or red outerwear, and some hold signs.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.”

The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.

I think a lesson here, too, is to actually fucking listen to overpoliced communities.

They live this experience long before it escalates to a point where the colour of your skin no longer protects you.

The marginalized always live the cracks in democracy before they rip wide open. Listen to them!!

Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.

"Please get the truth out about our son."

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

I’m so angry. I’m so tired of people in global positions of power and wealth hoarders upholding them. They want us to accept mass slaughter in Gaza. They want us to accept the MURDER of people who stick up to them. They want us to accept disgusting wealth gaps while we fight for scraps. Enough!!!!

Drop the names of any Canadian companies you’ve seen working with ICE in the comments.

I’m aware of Gardaworld, Roshel, Hootsuite.

Would love to gather any and all other names.

An execution.

Solomon and this govt have this fundamentally wrong. It's not the job of govts to convince its citizens to trust corporate offerings. It's their job to make sure those corporations behave responsibly so that they are worthy of trust.

Disabled son of ICE detainee dies after 30 days of hospitalization It had been months since Wael Tarabishi seen his father. The family is calling on ICE to release Maher Tarabishi so he may attend his son's funeral.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.

He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.

At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.

Wael died on Friday at age 30.

ICE caused his death.

They didn’t get to say goodbye.

Canadians took massive casualties fighting the American war in Afghanistan.
Trump says we never stepped up. JD Vance says he's sick of our "sob stories".
MP Jamil Jivani is best friends with Vance. Will he deliver a simple message from Canada?
Trump and Vance can go F--k themselves.
Never again.

#ReneeGood’s autopsy was released today. It was a “homicide.” Agent Jonathan Ross doesn’t deserve a dime!🪶😡🇺🇸👇🏽 #ICEGestapo #SayHerName #NoFundingForMurderers

look what they’re doing to my city. apologies for the camerawork

Canadians should be asking questions about how deeply our military has been collaborating with American ops of questionable legality.

((From my first email on Jan. 12 to now I have requested answers or a statement from the DND - ‘we’re still working on this’ will probably go on my tombstone))

MLK being arrested

He would be marching against ICE.

Honor Dr King’s legacy and fight for what is right.

Make good trouble.
