Happy Labour Day! This is the day when we honour and celebrate the history of the Canadian Labour Movement. Did you know Americans took the idea for Labor Day from Canada? Or that the holiday dates back 130+ years? This is the story! 🧵 1/9

A months-long investigation estimates that the profits from the Trump family’s ventures in private clubs, hotels, golf courses, crypto currencies, NFTs, and other businesses has raised President Trump’s net worth by billions of dollars.

This sums up everything you need to know about Trump/MAGA.
AI and wellness supplements have a lot more than rhetoric in common (both thrive in the space businesses have carved out of consumer protection regulations), but the rhetorical similarities are hard to ignore.

Ornstein urged immediate impeachment of RFK Jr., calling him a “monster” harming lives, and suggested Democrats use impeachment weekly against officials like Tulsi Gabbard and Kristi Noem to expose GOP support for outrageous actions. www.rawstory.com/impeachment-...
The last 3 years have been the hottest in around 125,000 years. CO2 levels are their highest in MILLIONS of years. But most people have no idea this is happening, let alone what it means for our kids’ futures. Our politics & media have failed our children. We should be furious.
Clean energy isn’t “woke.” It’s an essential part of our energy future and saves us all on power bills. This administration’s war on offshore wind and solar is just going to raise Americans’ utilities.
For decades, Republicans in Washington have told us that tax cuts would trickle down to workers. Instead, wealth and power have accumulated in the hands of the richest 1% at the expense of the rest of us. Trickle-down economics was never supposed to work. It was a hoax.

The Justice Department had once argued that Ghislaine Maxwell should be sentenced to at least 30 years in prison. Now its second-ranking official—and Donald Trump’s former lawyer—is aligned with a woman whose crimes the department had called “monstrous.”

This is just another similarity between Trump and Poilievre since Poilievre promised to fire the top central banker if he becomes Prime Minister, ignoring the independence of the bank. That’s just another worrisome similarity between Trump and Poilievre… thehub.ca/2022/10/27/o...
It isn’t politics to obviously see from the past 30 years in America, guns need to be impossible to get from legal sources for people that might be mentally ill or people that publicly show hatred for others in communities and online. That’s not politics That’s logic
jd vance wants to put politics aside It isn’t politics to demand that military weapons are not in the general population. Everybody knows freedom of speech is important, just like everybody knows hatred should not be free to have guns. That’s not politics That’s logic
