In the long list of women who I have fallen in love with based on nothing more than their singing, Joan Armatrading is right near the top.
Does it still matter to you? How do we push the grocery stores to understand we’re serious? Just groceries or extended into other arenas? I’m blessed as I have local choices but others do not… open.substack.com/pub/billkell...
I really do not want my pictures in your offices, for the President is not an icon, an idol or a portrait. Hang your kids’ photos instead, and look at them each time you are making a decision.” — Volodymyr Zelenskyy, 2019 inaugural speech
The CEO of a Polish paving company, Piotr Szczerek, said in a statement Monday morning he thought the player had offered him the hat for his sons.
45 years ago today Terry Fox was forced to call off the Marathon of Hope at Thunder Bay. He showed a nation what determination and leadership meant. Terry has stayed in our hearts ever since. We carry his spirit in these troubled times.

I still remember leaving work to join the crowd as she exited a Vancouver hotel that many years ago. Stunning beauty, simply a smile.
Awe, missing incredible you for 28 years.
The very best of an honourable presidental team. Such a pleasure to see them laughing easy.

Why don’t you send everyone proof of life first? (Either way, Chicago doesn’t want you here)
My thoughts are with the victim of this vicious attack and with everyone in the Jewish community across Canada who feel the impact of this hate. I stand with you and with all those working to end antisemitism and hate-fuelled violence. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
In recent public remarks about deploying the National Guard to Chicago, Donald Trump said: “I have the right to do ANYTHING I want to do. I’m the president of the United States.” Not even a King has that right. Certainly no president. Who knew a non-drinker could be so drunk with power?
Seriously true. He simply doesn’t have what it takes to be a credible leader of the opposition.
I get that Poilievre isn’t skilled at reading the room, but if he continues this shit he’s going to be dumped at his leadership review. Canada has had enough. Either join the team or step aside. They’ve learned NOTHING. #NeverPoilievre
I’m tired of Pierre Poilievre’s constant rage farming. Either work with the government to make real changes for Canadians or step aside. Not everything needs to be turned into a culture war for the cameras. #NeverPoilievre
Not only did we already know it, we’re comfortable with it. It’s not something we spend our time worrying about or preparing for.
Poilievre could not possibly care less about public safety, and his newfound appreciation for U.S.-style castle doctrine is a transparent ploy to appeal to the baser instincts of violent people who fantasize about murder. In Canada you can *already* respond with reasonable force to repel intruders.
And so it begins. PP has no ability to enter into cooperative ventures, bipartisanship or progressive policies. Conservatives get a new leader. He’s wasting time
Conservative MPs frustrated after PP bars them from promoting housing fund: sources One party source said MPs were being prevented from helping cities 'for partisan reasons' vt.tiktok.com/ZSAxbvtgV/
Kids across Canada are returning to school and I'm happy to learn of the national school food program that all provinces and territories have joined.This is the kind of cooperation across political divides for the good of the country's people that we need. #cdnpoli
Happy Labor Day President Biden!!! Miss you and love you!!! 🥰

“As I approach the end of my life, I have even less and less interest in examining what have got to be very superficial evaluations or opinions about the significance of one’s life or one’s work,” Leonard Cohen said, in 2016.
Call their asses out!
There is still beauty in the world. (Monsanto, Portugal 📷 unknown.)
We will put in the work to keep it that way.
We are ok.
Words from Presidents matter. If you were truly a President for the American people how could you treat them so poorly. You disparage, bully and insult more than half of them including many that voted for you. Why would anyone do that again? You think you’re courageous with power.Not worthy of POTUS
#WomenLEAD especially when men are cowards
He’s grown up speaking this way about women/girls. He needs to go. Real men are measured by what they contribute to society and everyone in it…not by what or who they use and abuse.
Taylor Swift has a whole team of lawyers that do nothing but copyright enforcement for her. Zuckerborg’s Meta just met his match and I hope she closes him down!!!
Keeping it real Bonnie. Don’t ever change the colour of your collar.

After all the chaos and destruction south of the border, Canada chose. And we chose wisely. That’s who we are. We don’t gamble with clowns, we don’t worship strongmen, and we don’t sell out our future for slogans. We adapt, we pivot, we change when we must.
Where’s his mug shot.
Keep a look out for this coward. #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
Republican Sen. Joni Ernst announced she will not run for reelection. When asked why, she said, “Well, we’re all going to die anyway.”
I can’t wait to get to Scotland with “my peeps”
This song is outstanding and sums up how Scotland feels about Trump. Please enjoy and share 😁 youtube.com/watch?v=loqt...
Never never ever
Poilievre making the same old arguments is so boring and out of sync with the state of the country and the world. CPC need to level up their political smarts and find someone who inspires. But, if they were to find someone like that, they'd be in power and we don't want that now, do we? #cdnpoli
I have no problem boycotting these dumb-asses along with Jack Daniels. Byyeeee
Leave it to Neil Young to call out the fascists on the streets and in the White House. He keeps rocking in the free world. www.youtube.com/watch?v=57WE...

Read this article and I have to admit it was cathartic. Hear you loud and clear.
Please, for the love of god, do it now. My Premature Trump Obituary #37 open.substack.com/pub/thebante...
Only when they lose power will they say they’re sorry. The tears will flow and they’ll say they didn’t understand. But they did understand raw power and followed the orders. They showed no compassion, no sober second thought. When they do lose power, let them experience the weight of their actions.
It's really not that complicated. Listen to Dick.
So, do I have this right? Even after four thumpings at the polls in a row, Cons have chosen the definition of insanity and embraced Poilievre, the toxic man Canadians despise, as their leader? So that they lose yet again? Excellent choice! As you were. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Exhausted. Emotional. Devastated by yet another school shooting. We are in the fight of our kids’ lives.
A photo reported to be a desperate mother running shoeless to the Minnesota school where the shooting took place. I can't look at it without the tears streaming down my face. Imagine the horror, folks. What is wrong with us as a nation, as a people?? #guncontrolnow #guncontrol
#MomSky BAN ASSAULT WEAPONS NOW!
Im fighting beside you, brother...till my life ends if it must come to that
I see and hear you. Find a nature walk.
Just in case you forgot…
Dear people who are saying that the CDC directors who quit yesterday should have “stayed and fought”, With all due respect, you do not grasp the magnitude of the problem of RFK Jr. He is asking them to do unethical and immoral things that will actively harm the people of the United States. 1/3
Sick distorted sense of purpose. Who are you? People saving lives and protecting properties and you try to justify your actions. Wrong. Just wrong
That's just plain fascist and a sickness in the soul of this nation. Who the fuck are these people carrying out clearly inhuman acts of barbarism! People fighting to save lives and property, and Fed Agents deem it expedient to make arrests!? Fuck ICE, FUCK DHS and fuck drumpty's barbarism. Jeeze!
FUCK THESE GESTAPO PRICKS! 😡 www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Thank you for trying to find words Governor Tim Walz.
There are no words that will heal the pain of this community.
70 years ago today, 14-year-old Emmett Till, an African American from Chicago, was brutally murdered for allegedly flirting with a white woman four days earlier. When you see “MAGA,” realize THAT was the America Trumpers are saying was “great.” I want a GREATER America than that. We all should.
"Canada has a new leader. So does the world."
"Justin, fact check this for us, because earlier today the President said there's no inflation." Lemme serve up a heaping pile of truth on a bed of context, and do so with a smile.
As a Canadian, this blows my mind. #USA #SchoolShootings
This an old video from 2012 but even back then Robin Williams had Trump’s number! He truly was ahead of his time and is very much missed! #USDemocracy #Pinks
I don't follow celebrity social lives. Like at all. I often look like the dipshit in the room for not know who is dating whom. So I watched an interview with Swift/Kelce to see what this was all about, and y'all, as a man who has been in love with the same woman for 30 years, those kids are in LOVE.
Republicans are trying to redraw congressional district lines to keep their grip on Congress in the midterms and beyond. Voters should pick their politicians, not the other way around. Get involved with the @democraticredistricting.com as they fight back: bit.ly/3HJ1ayW
Start fining them 10000 to 20000 $US per weapon when CBSA discovers a smuggled weapon at the border.

I don't think I'll ever forgive the people who continually vote for and uphold this death cult. Something I feel intensely on days when I read about innocent children who were slaughtered at school.
I read all of these comments to your post and the majority are well reasoned. Bottom line “we don’t have to live like this”. You choose the person you want to be in this rather imperfect world. Humanity and kindness matters. Reject the destructive forces operating in your country. Stand tall-protest
This is a choice made democratically, by a free people with eyes wide open. They had already seen Trump in action and he was fully transparent about his intentions. He literally said that he would like to be a dictator. He said those words, out loud. open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...
Dr. Demetre, in his resignation from the CDC, said this: “I have never experienced such radical non-transparency, nor have I seen such unskilled manipulation of data to achieve a political end rather than the good of the American people”. It is an outrage that RFK Jr. remains as head of HHS.
Just finished Judge Cullen's 39-page opinion dismissing the Trump admin's suit against all the federal judges in Maryland. While it's a disgrace that this suit was filed at all, at least it offers an education on many high-level issues in jurisprudence and on the nature of sovereignty itself.
Once again, America is shattered by another horrific school shooting. This morning at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, two children—just 8 and 10 years old—were killed during a school Mass. Read our statement: www.newtownactionalliance.org/naa-press-me...
“This Supreme Court will never condemn this President, even for delegitimizing the federal judiciary.” Judge Luttig offers a stark and scathing view of the Court’s willingness to limit Trump’s “unconscionable & unconstitutional” power grab.
So Travis and Taylor are engaged. Cool! What’s not to like here? Seriously? Two young people who obviously adore each other. Get over it. Jfc. 🤷♂️
Wake the fuck up America. In no community, city, state or country is it ok to massacre innocent children.
Moore: "The thing that gets me most about this is how deeply disrespectful this is to members of the National Guard who signed up for this job as I did when I deployed overseas & led paratroopers in combat where we signed up w/the expectation the commander in chief was actually taking it seriously"
My main take on Taylor Swift's engagement is that Charlie Kirk is a loser who should shut his dumb face.
Each day I wait for a post from you Judge Luttig. I read them impatiently with the same passion and purpose as you’ve written them. Today’s post although sad was also a critical reflection moment This is “y”our reality. The law must hold for all that is good and right in this world. LOTR Samwise
Trump & Bondi versus the Rule of Law: This is why we Americans live in fear today The Honorable Thomas Cullen, the judge from the Federal District Court in Virginia who was brought in to decide Donald Trump’s and Pam Bondi’s corrupt and unprecedented lawsuit against the Federal Court in Maryland,
just destroyed Trump and Bondi under the Rule of Law and denounced their “concerted effort” to politicize and delegitimize the Federal Courts and the individual judges of the Federal Judiciary.
Footnote 2 from Judge Cullen’s blistering Memorandum Opinion in Civil Action No. 1:25-cv-02029: “Indeed, over the past several months, principal officers of the Executive (and their spokespersons) have described federal district judges across the country as as “left-wing,” “liberal,” “activists,”
“radical,” “politically minded,” “rogue,” “unhinged,” “outrageous, overzealous, [and] unconstitutional,” “[c]rooked,” and worse. Although some tension between the coordinate branches of government is a hallmark of our constitutional system,
this concerted effort by the Executive to smear and impugn individual judges who rule against it is both unprecedented and unfortunate.”
The very idea that the President and Attorney General of the United States were so contemptuous of the federal courts as to even bring this utterly frivolous lawsuit against a Federal Court for the sole purpose of threatening and intimidating the federal courts across the nation is reprehensible.
