Glad we are getting the flag back and rewriting the narrative. This is a good thing

The community note 🤌😘

Dear the rest of the world: You should absolutely not see the US as reliable for anything at this point, shit, none of us on the inside think we're reliable for anything right now either, you're definitely not alone

On Ukraine, Europe must step into the void | Virgin

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

Imagine the immaturity and cruelty that goes into a post like this. Zelenskyy has valiantly led a nation brutally and criminally assaulted by Putin and that has suffered tragic losses and destruction. And you think it’s cute to refer to denigrate him as a child. This a person with no soul.

This is fascism.

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

Despite what lies they are being told it is not about the border. Trump knows full well who had responsibility for the flow of goods and people into the USA is the USA. The tariffs are about economic terrorism to stage a hostile takeover of Canada. Every other reason is a distraction. #cdnpoli

Clint Smith felt that need acutely. Smith is the chief legal officer of Discord, which had been a Smyte customer before it shut down. Suddenly, the company had to build its own safety stack from scratch. “The things we needed to build had already been built by Snap, Reddit, and other companies,” Smith said. “But all of them were proprietary implementations done by those companies’ engineering teams. We asked ourselves, why can’t we have a common set of tools?”

At at time when the very idea of content moderation is under assault, I wrote about an effort that gives me hope: a $27 million project to transform trust and safety with open-source tools in the same way that open source transformed cybersecurity www.platformer.news/roost-open-s...

ABA It has been three weeks since Inauguration Day. Most Americans recognize that newly elected leaders bring change. That is expected. But most Americans also expect that changes will take place in accordance with the rule of law and in an orderly manner that respects the lives of affected individuals and the work they have been asked to perform. Instead, we see wide-scale affronts to the rule of law itself, such as attacks on constitutionally protected birthright citizenship, the dismantling of USAID and the attempts to criminalize those who support lawful programs to eliminate bias and enhance diversity. We have seen attempts at wholesale dismantling of departments and entities created by Congress without seeking the required congressional approval to change the law. There are efforts to dismiss employees with little regard for the law and protections they merit, and social media announcements that disparage and appear to be motivated by a desire to inflame without any stated factual basis. This is chaotic. It may appeal to a few. But it is wrong. And most Americans recognize it is wrong. It is also contrary to the rule of law. The American Bar Association supports the rule of law. That means holding governments, including our own, accountable under law. We stand for a legal process that is orderly and fair. We have consistently urged the administrations of both parties to adhere to the rule of law. We stand in that familiar place again today. And we do not stand alone. Our courts stand for the rule of law as well.

This needs to get more attention. A bunch of programmers have no business or experience auditing anything other than someone's code. If you want to look for fraud and audit departments/agencies he should engage experts in their fields

Great point.

BREAKING: America

As others have said, the greatest transfer of wealth in US history will not be from the Boomers to their children but from them to the US healthcare system. The US is designed to make people insolvent and to keep them poor once they're there.

Trump says he is serious about Canada becoming 51st state in Super Bowl interview President Donald Trump said he is serious about wanting Canada to become the 51st state in an interview that aired Sunday during the Super Bowl preshow.

This is disturbing and concerning. The real reason for Trumps tariffs on Canada are to economically cripple Canada to stage what is effectively a hostile takeover. All levels of Canadian leadership need to be concerned about and actively fighting this #bcpoli #cdnpoli

It would be nice if someone who has sworn to defend and uphold the Constitution actually understood it. Checks and balances, man. Checks and balances.

Thank you to CBC Radio for having me on to discuss why Kevin Falcon must resign as leader of BC United. #BCPoli

www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

Evil attracts evil it would seem. Not at all surprised that someone who has allied themselves with Musk and Trump would have such disturbing views. I am sickened at the access these people are getting though. Its a coup and the average American people don't realise and it will be too late if they do

This needs to happen urgently if we want to have any hope of salvaging the centrist party in the province. With Kevin at the helm the party can't recover. Thanks to Karin for starting this movement #bcpoli

Today, I’m calling on Kevin Falcon to formally step down as BC United leader so that the party can fully pay off its debts and start the process of rebuilding British Columbia’s centrist party.

#bcpoli

The party is in serious trouble and might not be able to come back from this damage. With Kevin at the helm or is definitely not able to survive. We have all lost trust and faith in him. If we want to have a chance to rebuild he needs to step down immediately

NEW - Former BC United MLA Karin Kirkpatrick is calling on Kevin Falcon to step down as leader, saying he’s standing in the way of the party’s ability to pay its debts and begin rebuilding: “Falcon betrayed our party and its candidates,” when he withdrew from election.

NEW - Nashville Predators fans booed the Canadian national anthem tonight. And then got crushed by the Ottawa Senators on the ice. Go Sens Go.

Just RT’d this over at the Bad Place and it was like shaking a jar of red ants. #fun

Although the tariffs have been paused for 30 days, all Canadians and Mexicans need to remember they have not been canceled. They will forever loom over us as a threat for Trump to try and muscle us to do what he wants. We need to look to other allies and firm up bonds. The bonds with USA are broken
