POILIEVRE BRINGS THE MAGA HATE BOOK TO CANADA
YouTube video by Charlie Angus POILIEVRE BRINGS THE MAGA HATE BOOK TO CANADA

Don't be suckered in by Poilievre's campaign to launch a campaign over Canadian Christians suffering "persecution." He is running the same playbook as the AfD in Germany, Trump in the States and Farage in the UK.
My latest.

National Guard troops temporarily blocked from deploying to Portland, judge rules While the U.S. president is entitled to a great level of deference, the judge wrote, β€œa great level of deference” is not equivalent to ignoring the facts on the ground.”

Fuck yeah! A win for the rule of law.

Bell: A frustrated Danielle Smith wants Alberta teachers back at the bargaining table Premier Danielle Smith wants Alberta Teachers' Association to get back to the bargaining table and hammer out a deal before a Monday strike

”It's up to them to come back to us and say what it will take to get to a deal,” Smith
They have! You just don’t like the answer … of the defiance.
But to suggest something untoward or illegal is occurring?
Not a good look, Premier Smith.

"Europeans, let's wake up!" β€” Defend Democracy β€œWe have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks.” President Macron on the occasion of German Unity Day, 3 October 2025.

1/Striking speech by Macron: The future of European democracy depends on taking back its digital information space. A remarkable turn from Silicon Valley as source of enlightenment to being a purveyor of slop. And the stakes aren't just ad revenue but the nation.

Nothing says America First like bailing out Argentina while making healthcare unaffordable for 20+ million Americans.

Or signing an Article 5 protection treaty with Qatar coz they bribed you with a plane, while screwing over longstanding NATO allies.

Folks, I think America First might be a scam.

Hamas β€œagreed to release hostages, if Israel stops operations immediately”. Trump proclaimed this as a win, directing Netanyahu to cease operations in Gaza

Experts: Trump’s response reflects either β€œdesperate desire to end this war at all costs or grave misunderstanding” of what Hamas has agreed to

I think we need to address a growing issue of people who, although believe in the right things, have been working within oppressive US systems for so long, they don't understand that they themselves are operating in defense of these systems, because it's what they know.
