Conservative cosplayers, Carney's mark on world politics and Chinese electric cars (feat. Paris Marx and Supriya Dwivedi) Listen now | Bubble Pop with Rachel Gilmore | Season 2, Episode 16

On a new 🔵BUBBLE POP🔵 @supriya.bsky.social & @parismarx.com join @rachelgilmore.bsky.social to unpack Conservative MP Jamil Jivani's cosplaying as someone who has any role in trade negotiations when he went on a seemingly rogue trip to Washington last week

Last night on Power & Politics, @davidwcochrane.bsky.social asked the panel about Jamil Jivani’s assessment of his US trip. @supriya.bsky.social pushed back on the Conservative “both sides” framing of Canada–US tensions.

“One side is making unilateral threats…and are, quite frankly, untrustworthy.”

Triggered Donald Trump calls Bad Bunny's #superbowl halftime show "absolutely terrible, one of the worst EVER".

@supriya.bsky.social sees it differently.

What did you think of it?

JD Vance's bestie, Jamil Jivani, has a message for Canadians from Trump.

He loves us.

Um. Okay...

@parismarx.com and @supriya.bsky.social joined me on Bubble Pop to talk about Jamil's weirdo self-promotion trip and other, much more important Canadian politics stories.

Here's a sneak peek:

here’s my latest on the Carney government’s proposed social media ban for kids:

“…a social media ban for kids or a prohibition on certain types of content will not be getting to the root of the problem. We need to be demanding actual accountability and responsibility from social media companies”

87.4% is "the perfect number for Pierre Poilievre," says @338canada.bsky.social's Philippe Fournier...but @supriya.bsky.social's not so sure. 😆

What do you make of the results of the #CPC leadership review?

lmaoooo fair

She deserves a national funeral.

counterpoint: while Mary J was out there looking for some real love, she was turning a blind eye to diddy crimes

(why yes, I can ruin absolutely anything, why do you ask Denise?)

"It is an error of epic proportions to dismiss the obvious and explicit statements made by Trump and his administration about their plans to upend both America and the world."

IDF accepts Gaza Health Ministry death toll of over 71,000 Palestinians killed in the war Although Many International Experts Have Accepted the Health Ministry's Data as Reliable, and Even Conservative Relative to the True Death Toll, Israel Had Refused to Accept the Health Ministry's Coun...

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable.

Biden himself said they were fabricated!

Supriya Dwivedi: Donald Trump is famously unreliable. But this is how we know what he really plans to do Despite their mercurial leader, the Trump administration hasn't been shy about its aims.

my latest for the Star:

“…the world is actually quite lucky that Trump is as forthcoming with his plans as he is. We don’t have to guess what Trump administration will do; they are straight up telling us. Now if only we’d listen.”

“FIVE YEAR OLD CLIENT STUCK IN AN IMMIGRATION PRISON”

President Trump is back at it, insulting "Governor" Mark Carney in response to Canada's trade deal with China.

@supriya.bsky.social says it may actually be a good sign. Do you agree?

A graphic with a dark blue background featuring the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) wordmark at the top center. Below the wordmark, the text “Inclement Weather” appears in bold navy blue letters inside a white rectangular box. The box is outlined with a multicoloured border in orange, purple, green, and blue.

All TDSB schools, sites and administrative buildings (including Child Care centres) will be closed to students and most staff on Monday, January 26, due to ongoing snow removal and a Major Snow Storm Condition and Significant Weather Event declared by the City of Toronto.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Mark Carney says we need a new global order. So why is he cutting Canada’s most vital tools to build one? Cuts to the public service will weaken our capacity to build new alliances.

“To make a pivotal speech about the need for new alliances, and the very next day, lay off the exact people responsible for building said alliances, is confusing to say the least.”

@ldobsonhughes.bsky.social making some great points here:

If the will of one man is all it takes to invalidate the U.S. constitution in one year, there can be no trust placed in the U.S. for generations after that man is gone.

lol you told me initially you didn’t know or care who I was but ok!!!

lol what the PM doesn’t swear so private citizens can’t swear? wtf is wrong with you???

and please, I insist, tell Laurier Club you are pulling your donation bc I called you fuckface (in fact, I say you put it in writing and post it here!!!)

Carney literally blamed Ford himself for talks with Trump being called off, you can search for any number of news articles written about it at the time

lol yes bc wheelers and dealers in the LPC are anonymous trolly losers on Bluesky who get triggered at someone using lib on here to save characters, I totally believe you!!!!

please raise your concerns that I called you fuckface, I’m sure it will cause deep consternation for everyone!!!

lol you’re some anonymous loser out here attacking a senior liberal with a public platform —(columns with the Toronto Star and National Observer, weekly hit on power & politics, etc) —
I think I’ll be just fine with fuckfaces like you lumping me in with the likes of Ezra

sure but he literally did the same thing with the ford govt ad featuring Reagan (initially positive until he wasn’t a few days later)

like I think he just doesn’t have any principles and just changes his mind a lot and we shouldn’t ever assume what he says one day will hold the next

lmaoooo there’s a character limit fuckface, hence the use of libs instead of liberal party of Canada and the liberal govt of Canada

ugh you caught me!!!!

yes nobody could have predicted the very predictable thing Donald Trump just did

and calling a former senior advisor to PMJT a conservative is an interesting move

yes and what they have done since? they’re trying to pass a batshit border bill handing over all sorts of data to US law enforcement, we haven’t stood up for the Canadian ICC judge sanctioned by Trump, we backed down on digital services tax, govt still posts on Elon’s CSAM machine, etc etc

libs as in the liberal party of Canada and the lib govt of Canada
