Watching an unfettered Donald Trump these last six weeks running our country like his family business makes it very easy to understand why he bankrupted six companies

It’s insane to think that the Trump administration was more welcoming this week to the Tate brothers than to the President of Ukraine.

🚨Call your reps today!!!

Yes, I am aware that @hcrichardson.bsky.social quoted me in her column yesterday!

I am so honored! Thank you to Heather for acknowledging that I exist! I finally matter.

“That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse.”

This week, China found out the price for being an undermining foe is 10%.

And Canada found out that the price for being a helpful friend, who helped with California's wild fires, is 15% more.

Thank you, totally incompetent Donald Trump.

Trudeau: Canada will retaliate with 25% tariffs on $155B of U.S. goods YouTube video by CBC News

Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.

Well, the planet is burning.
Don't let them look away.

Smoke inhalation — even for seconds - can impair consciousness.

To anyone in the immediate vicinity of this unprecedented fire in the nations most populous county, urgently heed the evacuation orders NOW.

Smoke is as dangerous as the flames behind them.

This man and a small group of capitol police officers singlehandedly saved our democracy four years ago.

In November, 77 million Americans said "to hell with them" and voted for the insurrectionists.

Your "Back the Blue" flags are a pathetic disgrace and your patriotism is bullsh*t.

Fake Jobs and Fake Facts By Misrepresenting Constitutional Law, Muskawamy Prove Brandolini's Law

This is the best description of DOGE - what it is likely to be (an oligarchic project) and what it is unlikely to be (an actual government department) that I have yet read

This year I vow to rely less on corporatized media sources who have utterly failed at adequately portraying the stakes of this past election and overall political moment and instead support independent journalists who are working overtime to save this country from authoritarian oligarchy.

Only a moron would think Canada would want to join a country that has a dictatorship in the making, while Canadians
enjoy…

Minimum Wage $15-$17

Paid maternity leave
Subsidized Day Care

And, we are ranked 3rd best country to live in.

Why is Musk-Trump the "Mump Regime"? Ask the Mumpers and the Mumpets

Why the "Mump Regime"? For a new world we need new words. Facing the coming Musk-Trump regime, it will not be enough to rely on the standard terms ("administration," "presidency", and the like). That normalizes the abnormal.

Trump is not the President elect.

He's the assistant to the President non-elect.

Finally, a nomination we can collectively laugh at without having to worry about the end of civilization.
