Meiselas: And it's certainly not anti-Semitic to criticize what Netanyahu is doing...you can have basic humanity and speak out against atrocities that are happening in Gaza and watching people starve to death, and that does not make you antisemitic at all.

My opposition to Donald Trump transcends politics. It has NOTHING to do with my identity as a DEMOCRAT Or REPUBLICAN, a LIBERAL or CONSERVATIVE.

It has EVERYTHING to do with my identity as a DECENT person.

SO, I REJECT, the BIGOTRY, MISOGYNY and RACISM that PERMEATE his rhetoric and actions; and, his OBNOXIOUS and thoroughly DISGUSTING DEMEANOR that does NOT embody the PRINCIPLES, VALUES Or TRUE SPIRIT of AMERICA.

My OPPOSITION is NOT a PARTISAN ATTACK; it is a MORAL IMPERATIVE.

Who has been arrested by ICE under Trump? Tens of thousands of people have been detained since Trump took office, including permanent residents.

People since the 1600 fled to America to start new lives & escape persecution. It appears People are now needing to flee America to avoid persecution.

BREAKING: Trump is now Begging Mark Carney for a Way Out of Canada's "Anti-Trump" Boycott/Tariff War, in Texts/Secret Phone Calls The desperation is real. Trump’s illegal tariffs are tanking the U.S. economy, and Mark Carney is getting peppered by Trump with texts and late night calls.

@cbcnews-rss.bsky.social This was an excellent observation by David Cochrane. Really nice to see the vitriolic rhetoric by Poilievre called out for the nonsense it really is. Mark Carney extended a courtesy to Poilievre & Poilievre snarls in response. Canada rejected the right person. #Cdnpoli

@mark-carney.bsky.social said in Canada, healthcare is a right, not big business like in America. We are hoping that the Canadian federal government will stop the privatization of our healthcare by the provinces. It has to be about patients, not profits #healthcare #Cdnpoli #Ontpoli #ABpoli #Canada

Murdered inside a Saudi consulate. Dismembered. Then a full-on coverup, sanctioned at the highest levels.

Please note that if you use "prime minister elect" to refer to Mark Carney, a Canadian constitutional scholar will come to your home and smash your windows.
