Why a historical archive on female and non-binary skateboarders is a form of protest.

Liberals to cut CBC by $192-million in 2026-27 This year’s estimates include $1.38-billion in funding for the CBC, representing a marked decrease from the $1.58-billion allotted to the public broadcaster during the 2025-26 fiscal year.

Just waiting for Max Fawcett and the Observer crew to tell me why this is good actually.

Carney says he supports US invading Iran, Cuba, and possibly Canada "with some regret" "It's a good thing that Trump is the most peaceful president in history who ends all wars, right?"

Yeah, I'm not OK reading this...

This is what is hidden by @nytimes.com @cnn.com and other mainstream coverage when they cover missile strikes... They don't cover the victims and aftermath nearly as much as the flashy bangs.

Thank you for all the work you do. Exposing these white nationalists is making many safe across the country. Stay safe and keep up the good work. Our community has your back.

As a lil update, I'm giving myself the day off tomorrow because of all this.

I need some rest after being on the phone with police all day today and dealing with this bullshit until way too late last night.

So, I'm really sorry, but no podcast this week :(

I hope you guys don't mind ❀️

NOEM: I would disagree with the judge

CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?

NOEM: A what?

CROCKETT: A law degree

NOEM: No I do no-

CROCKETT: Okay

Dem Candidate for Rep. Eric Swalwell’s Seat Donated to Far-Right Republicans β€” Including Laura Loomer Democratic primary hopeful Rakhi Israni, who is running for Rep. Eric Swalwell’s seat, gave to MAGA figures β€”Β including Laura Loomer.

For anyone in the Bay Area or following California politics, this is a crazy story.

A far-right supporter is a Dem candidate in the 14th congressional district (East Bay). This kind of infiltration is always a danger when one party dominates, and something to watch out for across the country.

I’ve unmasked a white nationalist fight club in my city: Montreal.

After weeks of work (with help!), I can reveal an Olympian as a member of the Frontenac Active Club β€” one who, unbeknownst to the owners, brought them to a local gym for training and propaganda photos.

Here’s my investigation:

Indeed! Foreign policy has been an area of agreement for Republicans and corporate Democrats for decades.

How many countries has the US bombed since 2001, and how much has it cost? Since 9/11, the US has engaged in three full-scale wars, bombing at least 10 countries under four presidents.

10 countries bombed
940 000 people (mostly civilians) dead
8 Trillions dollars spent

Imagine putting those funds towards the welfare of humans instead. Hospitals, schools, community centres... Things that would build up our resilience as we face biodiversity collapse and climate breakdown.

The Senate cannot ignore the dangers of Bill C-12 or ignore the amendments recommended by its own SOCI committee. Be the body of β€˜sober second thought’.

Amend to remove parts 5 - 8.

Justice Department withheld and removed some Epstein files related to Trump An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump.

"The Justice Dept. has withheld some Epstein files related to allegations that President Trump sexually abused a minor..."

"These include ... more than 50 pages of FBI interviews, and notes from conversations with a woman who accused Trump of sexual abuse decades ago when she was a minor."
