The most powerful force in American politics today is anti-establishment fury at a rigged economic system.
To counter Trump’s fake populism and his culture wars, progressives should mount a real battle against economic elites who have shafted America’s middle and working classes.

Lighting up Windsor Castle.
The perfect way to highlight the atrocities committed by Jeffery Epstein and Fascist felon rapist Fuhrer Trump.
Convicted Fascist felon rapist bigot Trump cannot run or hide from his past.

Parliamentary Petition to ask the Government of Canada to immediately withdrawal Bill C2, sponsored by @jennykwan.bsky.social
www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...
Happening TOMORROW: nearly 1000 organizers coming together to learn how to CRUSH Bill C-2!
It's the worst surveillance bill since C-51, an entirely unjustified attack on refugee rights, and a total betrayal of values Canadians hold dear.
Join us in saying NO!

“We’re going to stay committed to making sure that those workers can do the job that they love doing and actually be able to afford a roof over their heads, to afford caring for their families,” CUPE president just said.
“If it means folks like me going to jail, then so be it.”
The cop who punched Abdirahman Abdi to death in Ottawa, Daniel Montsion, was the highest paid officer in Ontario in 2024. His salary is nearly double the other highest salaries, at a stunning $410,710.
Does Canada's government care that Gaza is starving? What they told me today suggests they don't.
I had asked them to respond to a message from @yipengge.bsky.social, a doctor who has been on the ground in Gaza.
Here's why he called their answer "insulting" and "disappointing."
Hi, yes, g'morning. This is awkward.
But targeting a reporter - hi! - with
surreptitiously obtained photos and details of her tooling around town is an attack on the public's right to know.

HALF of the money.
HALF of all the money in the world is going to the richest 0.00005%.
This is why there is no money for you, and never will be.
It would be nice if liars get kicked out of Parliament for the day, and their empty seat gets a sign that explains they have been booted for lying.
Asking the Liberals to be courageous is going as well as asking Democrats to be.
Canada is fully complicit. If this was the 1939 invasion of Poland, Mark Carney & Anita Anand would be there issuing press releases about Germany’s right to defend itself.
The way out is thru laws and institutions built in the ashes of WWII, not extending impunity to genocidal aggressor states.
Canada’s sovereignty is facing an existential threat over disproven allegations that illicit fentanyl, originating from Canada, is significantly contributing the American drug poisoning emergency.
This Bill is a dangerous and unfounded admission of guilt

The right wing does not think they’re the Empire. They think they’re the Rebels. Probably because they’re media illiterate morons who are always saying things like, “when did Star Trek go woke”
on this day in 1609 Shakespeare's sonnets are first published.

Liberal hacks are gonna lose their shit on me but it is a huge 🚩 that we have a cabinet Minister for AI but not one for Labour.
Relieved to hear that all the advocacy from my sector ensured that Carney re-introduced a Minister for Women and Equality.
Reminder that holding politicians accountable is literally our job as voters.
Calling out Carney did not mean we wanted the CPCs to win. It was for this exact outcome.
As a former legal professional, I can state confidently that I was expecting the legal professionals to be precisely this depraved ☹️
I really hope that all y'all who normally vote NDP and shifted your vote to Liberal remind your MP frequently that their win was because of left-leaning voters choosing to vote against the Conservatives and if they won't want a Conservative majority next time around they best govern accordingly.
Every day I wake up, trying to ruin the lives of shitty white men and today, it seems most Canadians had the same thought.
I couldn't be happier.
