I called the "baggage services" line at @aircanada.bsky.social and it's a recorded message saying you can only do things through the app and then it hangs up on you.

@aircanada.bsky.social if the app isn't updating and there's no information anywhere, what exactly are people supposed to do?

Roundtrip flight and they missed my bag both times. Both. Times. And this is after upgrading and getting priority bags 🫠 This doesn't even touch upon the terrible plane I was stuck on for a leg, or the completely unhelpful baggage agent in Orlando. Who lied to us about more bags coming out.

Y'ALL.

I have never had such an unpleasant, inconvenient, and disappointing experience as I'm currently having with @aircanada.bsky.social. When I say *never* to fly them, friends, I mean *never*.

If the shooter had killed a leftist podcaster, he would have a multi million dollar Go Fund Me to cover his legal fees tomorrow, and an interview lined up with Charlie Kirk.

You did it! Thank you for voting. Democrat Catelin Drey has flipped an open Iowa state Senate seat, raise a glass! This victory means Republicans no longer hold a supermajority in Iowa.

Iowa Democrats celebrate as Drey wins special election, breaks GOP supermajority • Iowa Capital Dispatch The Democratic candidate's victory in Iowa Senate District 1 means Republicans no longer hold a supermajority in the Iowa Senate.

💥
Iowa under Trump: Democrats 2, Republicans 0

Catelin Drey (37) from Sioux City won District 1 election by 55% to Christopher Prosch’s 44% in deep red #Iowa where Trump won by 13%.

The second state seat to be flipped this year & which has now broken the Republican senate supermajority (33-17).

Very proud of our town!
Very concerned about how much the CTDOT knows (or does not)

DOT seems to be saying @amtrak.com is to blame 🤔

At a meeting about some terrible plans the @ctdot-official.bsky.social are proposing. And I'm deeply concerned at the number of things the DOT is admitting they don't know (along with their very liberal use of eminent domain).

Isn't knowing kinda... their job?

Two out-of-state Congressmen hold town hall in downtown Dayton Two U.S. legislators spoke to about 750 people at the Victoria Theatre on Saturday afternoon as part of an Ohio Democratic Party event.

“I know when you’re in a state with a Republican Senate delegation and a Republican governor, you can feel that you’re powerless,” Murphy said. “You’re not.”

My most controversial opinion: Chris Pine is the #bestchris.

A one-day sentence for the officer in the Breonna Taylor case?

Y’all gave people years for protesting her death.

This isn’t just injustice

it’s spitting on her grave.

Stephen Colbert has won 11 Emmys and that’s funny because a person who has no Emmys and wants one more than anything in the world is Donald Trump

This was the order of events:

1. Paramount acceded to Trump’s extortion by paying a bribe.

2. Stephen Colbert calls his employer out for doing that.

3. Paramount fires Stephen Colbert for being honest about Trump.

4. Proving Trump’s bribe worked.

I look for silver linings. And CBS ending hilarious, brilliant, wise @stephencolbert.bsky.social ‘s show after eleven years—“a financial decision not related in any way to the show's content”—has one. Colbert now has a whole year to satirize his bootlicker bosses and all the booted villains.

Duckworth statement on Trump’s strikes against Iran nuclear sites.

Duckworth statement on Trump’s strikes against Iran nuclear sites.

Trump bombing Iran was illegal and unjustified.

I ran for Congress to make sure our leaders consider the true costs of war.

And I will be in the Senate, standing on my titanium legs, demanding answers from Trump.

My statement:

Following a rich white man to war because you didn’t like the sound of a black woman laughing will go down in American history as one of the stupidest things ever.

We went from the President rage-tweeting about windmills to bombing Iranian nuclear sites in a matter of hours. And the media just shrugs it off like, “yea, that’s what he does.”

FIRST ON MSNBC: "What authoritarians are good at is giving you someone to blame."

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander speaks with @chrislhayes.bsky.social after his arrest, where Lander and his wife said they were serving as advocates for defendants in immigration court.

👇🎯🧵 It's maddening how easily & multi-dimensionally we, as a country, have simply accepted the fact that the rule of law no longer exists; almost no one who swore oaths on Bibles to preserve, protect, & defend the constitution seems to care; & the president can act like a Mad King without penalty 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

I am watching Sen. Alex Padilla talk on the Senate floor about being assaulted last week, as I watch New York City controller Brad Lander get assaulted at immigration court. In between reports on the two MN Democrats shot, one murdered, last weekend. But both sides, people, both sides.

Never change, Philly.

We have entered the "The police is saying that if the police is at your door you are not safe call the police immediately" stage of making America great again

Imagine waking up today and being one of the Democrats who voted to confirm Kristi Noem.

YouTube video by Senator Elizabeth Warren Senator Warren Calls For Kristi Noem's Resignation Following DHS Assault on Senator Alex Padilla

It’s time for Republican Senators to speak up and support an independent investigation into what happened to Senator Padilla—and it’s time for Kristi Noem to resign.

Children needing chemo are not showing up for their appointments! These ICE raids are costing lives in so many ways. They are such unnecessary cruelty and a far cry from “targeting criminals”.

Trump’s Big Ugly LA Lie Donald Trump intentionally provoked needless violence

Trump lied about LA being a war zone to justify sending in troops—just like he lied about 2020 to justify January 6. Jen Rubin on why the truth still matters.

They are out of control. She was trying to go home.
