"A cartoon, titled "Quiet Piggy" by Steve Nease, depicts a Canadian beaver character applying duct tape over the mouth of a man identified as U.S. Ambassador Hoekstra. The beaver is holding a roll of tape and saying "Quiet Piggy," while the ambassador is holding a paper labeled "Anti-Canada Rhetoric". The cartoon is a political commentary on U.S. Ambassador to Canada, Pete Hoekstra, and his undiplomatic comments regarding Canada."

I’m with her now. I spend 1 month every year hanging out with her. I say I’m reclaiming my time with her. (I’m oldest daughter of 5 children). I enjoy every moment with her.

Who is the artist?

I’m thankful to still have my mom and to spend time with her.

This kid is brilliant. Voice of a generation.

What We're Bracing For Thanks to brave supporters in Congress and in the public, we have won one victory, the passage of the bill to reicase the Epstein files. But we know the battle is far from over. As we approach the release of the files, here is what we are bracing for: 1. Attempts to blame the victims for our own or each other's abuse. Years ago, Epstein got away with abusing us by portraying us as flawed and bad girls. We cannot let his enablers use this tactic to escape accountability now. Some of us were neglected children.Some of us were used to recruit other girls our age. These were tactics that Epstein and Maxwell used as they ensnared victims and they are standard tactics of all sex traffickers. These tactics reflect on them, not on us. 2. Incompicte disclosures. Other than redacting victim names, we want all the files disclosed. We ask our champions in Congress and in the public to continue fighting to make sure all materials are released, not selected ones. 3. Threats to our physical safety. Many of us have already received death threats and other threats of harm. We are bracing for these to escalate. We ask every federal and state law enforcement agency that has jurisdiction over these threats to investigate them and protect us. 4. Efforts to pull us apart. We are already hearing efforts to suggest that victims who had reached the age of 18 were not really victims anymore. We denounce this outragcous argument. Some of us were over 18 when we were victimized. Some were vulnerable because of childhood sexual abuse. Some were vulncrable because of poverty. Some of us were assaulted by Epstein and Maxwell and their accomplices using force, intimidation, and violence. All of us were vulncrable because of life circumstances our young selves faced that were manipulated by Epstein and Maxwell and for which we were targeted. A 20 or 22-year-old is no match for a forceful and determined pair of hardened, methodical, middle-aged predators. We reject any claim t…

The Epstein Survivors have issued a new statement in which they plead for a full disclosure of the files and express their fears as most of them received death threats.
Please take a moment to read their message. Let’s all give them a sound support.

Gave me chills

I love this

Did you know that in Canada, if a budget doesn’t pass the government doesn’t shut down?

Federal workers aren’t furloughed.

Funding for social services doesn’t dry up.

Failure to pass a budget triggers an election.

It puts the politicians jobs on the line.

They get the budget passed.

As a French Canadian I agree 100%. It’s always anglos who comment on my French. It’s actually quite funny when they give me their opinions about the language they don’t even speak.
