It sucks that our local newspaper is nearly gone and that the city council elections are mostly taking place on Facebook.

i just filled out an accessibility survey and it asked me if i use an mobility device and i said, yes — benches

benches, buses, and bathrooms. they should be everywhere

"They went door-to-door to tell their neighbors what the city had not told them: The data center would use twice as much electricity as all of Monterey Park."

The city’s notification in English reached only 40 people living within 500 feet. Activists worked in English, Chinese, Spanish & more!

There’s a leftist movement catching fire around the world as people realize they’re getting screwed by the rich who keep getting richer.

NDP Leader @avilewis.ca is hoping to harness that flame — but can he convince Canadians they won’t be burned?

Here’s a sneak peek of our conversation:

BENNET: Do you agree that 89% of children who died from flu were unvaccinated?

RFK Jr: I don't know the exact number

BENNET: That is the exact number, Secretary Kennedy

RFK Jr: *death growls*

BENNET: You took down the HHS communications promoting the flu vaccine. Do you regret that?

"My cat hacked those medical records" defense fails:
Russell insisted that he didn’t know how his credentials had been used to run the searches. But he theorized that “potentially his cat had run across the keyboard and typed in those letters.”

I’ve introduced #BillC274 to create a permanent path to citizenship for children in care. We must ensure "aging out" doesn't mean facing deportation.
I urge the Govt to pass this swiftly. ⚖️ #cdnpoli

Oil companies are set for $90B in windfall profits while the bottom 40% of Canadians hold just 3% of wealth.

I asked the Liberals for a "Yes or No" on a windfall tax & gas price caps to stop the gouging. They gave me a non-answer about "tools."

Canadians need relief, not "reviews." #cdnpoli

Nothing is out of bounds to an army that attacked a convoy of ambulances, slaughtered the medics and then tried to bury the evidence, ambulances and all

They are going through a lot of trouble to propagate anti Zionism as anti semitism. It's a pro Israel propaganda symposium. It's that simple.

When they received the call to respond to an Israeli airstrike in the city of Mayfadoun, in southern Lebanon, most of the paramedics held back, having previously seen colleagues killed by double-tap attacks targeting rescuers. But the medics from the Islamic Health Association (IHA) rushed to the scene. By the time the other emergency workers arrived at the site, they found the IHA medics had indeed been caught in a second strike. They started evacuating their wounded colleagues, only for their ambulances to be hit in two further attacks. One of the paramedics covered his ears and screamed, convulsing in pain as shrapnel shattered the back window of the ambulance. The rescue mission on Wednesday afternoon had turned into a nightmare as Israel carried out three consecutive strikes on three sets of ambulances and medical workers.

Israel performed a literal quadruple tap attack in Lebanon to massacre three separate sets of medics.

Truly pushing the bounds of human depravity.

Sexual assault, forcing citizens to strip naked, Israeli men exposing themselves to children.

Trump Attacks the Pope for His Old Tweets I read the Pope's entire Twitter history, and here's what I found

Donald Trump has mocked the Pope, insulted him, militarily threatened him, and is now digging into his old Tweets to attack him some more.

I read the Pope's entire Twitter history, and this is what I found — including what scares Trump the most about Pope Leo.

It Was on Your Table Every Morning Growing Up. It’s Dying Before Our Eyes. No One Wants to Face It. The powerhouse of American citrus is suffering a brutal decline. Everyone has a theory about why.

This is a nightmare: the destruction of Florida's orange industry. Tariffs, drought, deep freezes and a bacteria that is destroying the trees. They have lost 95% of production since 2003.
3/4s of growers are out of business. This is the dangerous eco-future staring us.
