All of Giuliani’s life events that I know about hit like season ending cliffhangers where you’re like ‘How’s he gonna get outta this one?’ People forget that Four Seasons Landscaping debacle was All Him, which is understandable because he also committed actual sexual harassment in a Borat movie.
Russia tried to assassinate the President of European Commission Ursula von der Leyen by jamming her plane while landing. So far Europe has ignored the issue as to not give Russia the attention it wants and to quietly prevent themselves from reacting to this significant escalation by the Kremlin.
All kidding aside, it is so *insane* & *shocking* & *dangerous* that Corporate Media has collectively decided to completely bury objective fact that the President is uninformed, confused, and physically & mentally deteriorating.
What a gang of mindless amateurs in Washington accomplished in Beijing:
"Hedge fund billionaire Ray Dalio has warned Donald Trump’s America is drifting into 1930s-style autocratic politics — and said other investors are too scared of the president to speak up." www.ft.com/content/b86b...

God damn is he good at this
White House to make an announcement at 2pm September 2, all roads to Walter Reed hospital shutdown.
Denmark, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands plan to build four artificial islands to quadruple offshore wind in the North Sea – the equivalent of 30 nuclear reactors. #cdnpoli
Steven Colbert and his wife appeared in the crowd at the Alcaraz match, and the arena went wild when his face hit the screen. People clearly adore him—and honestly, seeing that joy gave me a surge of hope.
Man, I feel this. 🙏🏽😭
This is truly incredible: Meidas Canada just surpassed 100,000 YouTube subscribers on DAY 1! Congratulations to Charlie Angus and the Maple Meidas for making this launch such a tremendous success. This is just the beginning as we fight fascism worldwide! 👉 YouTube.com/@meidascanada
Technically, RFK Jr's first job was being a Kennedy.
I said “to name a few”. I am a prodigious reader of all kinds of news outlets. Just signed up for meidas here in Canada. Quit judging people before you know the facts.
something something two weeks tremendous never seen anything like it huge many people saying
I bet the White House staff is busy setting up a bunch of cardboard cutouts in the Oval Office like in Home Alone
The late Iain Banks remarks have never been more relevant. Asylum seekers actually get a pittance from the state and they haven't caused any political problems. Immigration is a good and positive thing and it has helped build Scotland into the modern tolerant and free country it is today.
It’s time to tell the truth. It’s time to call a thing a thing. We have a rogue President who has violated 249 years of Democratic guardrails set by the Founders. I broke it all the way down on @weeknightmsnbc Authoritarianism is here. And we must stop it now. #LaborDay
US not prepared for war with Russia, it's recommended local and state governments take initiative due to near collapse of federal agencies under Trump. Unlike previous wars, this one will reach the homeland.
In another instalment of:“Didn’t Age Well” RFK Jr on Trump: “The way you build a truly vicious nationalist movement is to wed a relatively small core of belligerent idiots to a much larger group of opportunists and spineless fellow travelers whose primary function is to turn a blind eye to things”🥴

Trump could shoot someone in the middle of 5th Avenue and get away with it, Netanyahu could kill 53,000, and Putin could kill millions. The table of impunity only gets longer. It’s important to fight tyrants at all levels. #3E
I am 76 & I have had most of these vaccinations at one time or another. Also vaccinations against Covid, Tetanus, plus Cholera & Yellow Fever when travelling in foreign countries. These prevented me catching horrible diseases & dying a gruesome death. They did not harm me, they protected me!
RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. Nʌki’wah brother.
Every person, without exception, who claims they voted for King asshole “because of the economy” is lying. All of them. Not a single person voted for that criminal asswipe because of the economy. They voted for him because they wanted team white man to win and be in charge. That’s it.
Great taste.
Hold me back
Dogs are amazing! ❤️🐕🐾 #dog #dogday #bluesky

Happy Labor Day!
They should do it anyway for the environmental benefits.
If all the documents were released, all the records, all the interviews, if every shred of paper written on the Epstein sex trafficking operation were released tomorrow, there would still be horrific things we’ll never know. Think about that.
If Trump’s lying, he’s dying.
Ukraine said on Monday that it had arrested a suspect in the murder of a former Ukrainian parliamentary speaker, accusing Moscow of involvement in one of the most high-profile killings since the war began. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/w...

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.

California stepping up.
Where is the mainsteam media? Anyone out there? Can you hear me???
www.tiktok.com/t/ZT6GvjPcr/ How in the HELL does any government lawfully deport 600 unaccompanied minors? Who does that? Who the fuck are we? What are we? What have we become?
We are pumped to be launching @meidascanada.ca today. Our first Meidas Canada townhalls take place this weekend. Charlottetown is sold out but there are still a few tickets available for the official tour launch in North Rustico PEI. The revolution starts now. @meidastouch.com
So ya, I totally had to do intervention at the Calgary Pride parade. Some anti-trans protesters in the staging area. Told him his hate wasn't welcome. Blew my whistle, ruined his audio recording. Police engaged. You think you can bring your hate to this safe space? Not today Satan! Happy Pride!
You know, I think I can speak for the majority of Canadians when I say that we are horrified about what is happening - to people, to institutions, to laws…. I honestly don’t know what I would do if this happened in Canada. I’m so sorry and wish the best of luck. Sincerely.
Remember the Goolsbee Rule, also called the “pathological irony of crisis”: If you lose credibility, your statements begin to mean the opposite of what you say.

You could be right. Still, you need someone to step up. Soon.
This is gonna be a big week for the Epstein survivors. Tell Congress to demand answers now!
If we will never be a Socialist [sic] or Communist [sic] Country [sic], then why are you giving billions of dollars to farmers to make up for losses from your stupid tariffs (SOCIALISM) and having the US government own part of Intel (COMMUNISM)?
Why is the Draft Dodger-in-Chief trying to drag us into a war with Venezuela? The claim is that drug cartels are so out of control they’ve been designated an international terrorist organization, so we need to send warships. But we’re denying Venezuelan’s asylum claims who fled for their lives. 🤔
Brilliant
Well, all I see, from an external perspective, is that he is devastatingly effective at eviscerating Trump. Whether you like it or not, you need him right now.
Feature not a bug
“.. with the exception of the pandemic, Black women have never seen such staggering losses in employment.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/u...
I’m afraid many Americans thought they were voting for “World’s Biggest Asshole” instead of President.
They're going to do it. They're going to fucking do it. Of COURSE they are. archive.is/Kv4L8
It's too early to proclaim that he will be the nominee. I personally hope he is not. I honestly don't trust him. BUT I love how he trolls the orange one and if he can get redistricting done here in California I'm all for it.
Again, you think you know me. I follow all kinds of news sources - I am a media junkie. NPR, Wired, Mother Jones, proPublica, BBC, The Guardian, to name just a few. I am anything but uninformed. Stop judging before you know the facts.
If you wonder what the source of all our problems is — stop looking overseas, stop blaming “the other.” The rot isn’t out there. It’s coming from inside the house. Inside the Oval. Inside the halls of power. And it’s burning our democracy from within.
😕 It makes me sad. He deserves better.
💯. And if you’re “blessed” with an acute sense of smell like I am, it would have been a daily hell.
Good luck. The world is hoping you are right there is time. Doesn’t look like it from our perspective.
If you are a person who regularly donates items for food banks, please also consider adding cake mix and icing for birthday cakes and period products. Both make life infinitely nicer for folks who need something nice.
I know there’s a lot going on but in June ICE took custody of a U.S.-born citizen in Chicago, Illinois and handed him over to a private contractor, which confined him in a hotel without a phone or other form of communication for five days. The city and state aren’t ready for what’s coming next.
no matter your politics it’s disrespectful to joke about someone’s death. don’t say rudy giuliani died from driving his car into a wall painted to look like a tunnel and all his clothes flew off in the crash and then a sixteen wheeler semi truck ran over his dick and balls. don’t say stuff like that
You can’t “love” the sport of basketball and not know anything about the WNBA. You love men’s basketball. And that’s ok. You’re just missing out 🤷🏾♀️
I bought a Boston cream doughnut (now called a Canada Is Not For Sale doughnut for obvious reasons) and it was not cream but jam. More American betrayal.
That is just stunning.
So Leventry is done for the #charmcitypal . The yarn is Mitchells Creations Lagniappe Sock in the colorways Flower Bomb and Strawberry Colada. This is a gift for a friend. #knitting #paknitwit #leventryshawl #mitchellscreations #lagniappesockyarn
Of course. Pritzker stands out. My big point is, you’d better rally soon about someone who somehow appeals to all voters (ps: they don’t exist) are you are truly screwed. Everyone outside the U.S. can already see you are living in a totalitarian state. We can see the forest for the trees.
Q: Would you welcome federal resources going into a part of South Carolina with a high crime rate? Nancy Mace: I hear that DC is safer than it's ever been…I look forward to watching the videos of soldiers entering Chicago
"We're going to need a story about this accident. Say he was helping a woman. That should work. Also, is he wearing pants? Make sure he's wearing pants."

Which is why he will do everything in his power to ensure there are no “next” elections.
From FB... This is the real consequence of a government that can't think past their first reaction. The UCP's book ban was poorly thought out, written & executed with unintended consequences that are disastrous. Everyone saw this coming but them. #abpoli #abed #cdnpoli
😡
Perhaps you need to post a photo of said fabulous legs so that we can refer back to that when we need cheering up.
The US brought in nearly $30 Billion in tariffs in July, triple the amount collected in previous years That's not good news Tariffs are taxes on Americans That $30B was collected from you and me when we bought food, clothes, electronics...
One thing that's particularly maddening about what's happening today—beyond that it's happening—is that when people talk about how we are moving toward authoritarianism, toward fascism, by a collection of narcissistic sociopaths, many Americans' eyes glaze over.
Hitler.
So much unity in the hope that one person dies. Global unity. Has that ever happened before?
Yeah, I guess my 45+ years in and around news and politics is all for naught. Clearly, I am shit. 🙄
Oh really? You know that much about me? I’m impressed.
🚨BREAKING: President Donald Trump said in a weekend social media post he plans to issue an executive order to impose voter ID requirements. And he reiterated his desire to ban mail voting. The president lacks the authority to take either step. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Strong or rich … Only those who can afford healthcare ‼️
As a Canadian, I am mystified by liberals who are flaying the only high-profile person in America who is actively and effectively fighting the fascists in power. Y’all must have a burning desire to be obliterated. SMDH.
Looking good, Joe. ❤️ (And not a cankle in sight! 😏)
