Out on the picket line today with @bcgeu.bsky.social. If you work, you should be able to live in dignity and security. Public service workers, like all workers, shouldn’t need second and third jobs just to get by. If you find yourself by a picket line, remember: don’t cross it!

Let’s make this the most watched news conference of the year!
And… are they bringing back the gallows? Is this how innocent people behave?
The White House has made it clear that any Republicans considering joining Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY) in his bipartisan push to force a vote on the full release of the Epstein files will be treated as committing a “very hostile act to the administration,”
Canada first legislation — love it ! - I’ll sign that petition!

Woah!...
Man, the Epstein files must be absolutely disastrous! We can walk and chew gum, Donald. We aren't going to forget about the kids who have been abused.
Governor, I expect you to send the State Police and local PDs to protect these people and confront ICE. There is no alternative now. It is where we are.
The longer we wait, the bloodier it’s going to be.

I hope that he and the Chicago mayor will order local law enforcement to stop any illegal ICE operations; i.e., no warrant, no arrest. Also, arrest any ICE “agents” who keep their faces covered and refuse to present warrant, ID, and credentials. Tow any ICE vehicles illegally parked.
I am so proud of our jewel of the midwest.How dare anyone , least our president to start a battle with Chicago. I am so proud to have Chicago so close to Iowa.
Perpetrating domestic terrorism is every Republican’s wet dream.
He’s correct. Trump is all drama and 0 facts.
We are spending billions to terrorize people so Miller and WCNs can live out their fantasies.
Look up Pat Buchanan’s platform from 1996. It’s absolutely, 100% about race and it mirrors what’s happening now. Facts.
Pritzker: "It breaks my heart to report that we have been told ICE will try to disrupt community picnics and peaceful parades. Let's be clear -- the terror and cruelty is the point, not the safety of anybody living here."
So our military just bombed a boat in international waters and extrajudicially killed suspected drug traffickers without so much as a conversation, let alone a trial? Then posted it on social media? And we’re all supposed to just trust their account?
Just a snippet but worth listening to
#SeahorseBarbie
And trump's attempts at distracting from the Epstein files should be called "Epsteining."

Yah - in my experience (and I DO have it), listening to other survivors with empathy and compassion is the usual response. Her actions just call attention to herself.
America is very sick. 🇨🇦🇺🇦✌️
I feel like in the 1980’s/90’s this would be a major plot point in a Tom Clancy novel, and the operation would be carried out as an off-book, illegal black op, with various characters trying to cover it up lest they face congressional hearings. Now the President just announces it.
Minister Nicolaides the latest UCP public embarrassment for book banning. Pausing the book ban deeply embarrassed the UCP government which should never have happened. Likewise the minister of health LaGrange whose comedy of errors- another clear abysmal failure. Smith never apologizes. Disgraceful
Where are we at?
Unfortunately it's stunts like this that stick in voters minds. They get highlighted and promoted and Ontario ends up with another round of the anti-union, anti-environment, anti-science BS that is Doug Ford. Please don't continue to give him air time.

Women continued to outvote men in 2024, despite an overall drop in turnout. “The turnout rate for women voters in 2024 was the second highest in all presidential elections since 1980.” Great data in this report from the Center for American Women and Politics. cawp.rutgers.edu/blog/women-c...

The US is becoming less predictable, less reliable, in the eyes of non-American leaders, explains @gzeromedia.com That uncertainty has left countries hedging their bets, with China seizing the opportunity to present itself as the more stable long-term partner. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iqU...
Who’s ready for a PURGE?!?!?
Trump threatens to send troops back to California: "Newsom didn't want us there. He's gonna need us again because it's starting to form again."
😆😅😆😅🤣😂😅😂
The more we fight against the normalisation of fascism, the harder it will be for them to make any move unobstructed. This is NOT normal, and the only way through this is making as much good trouble as you possibly can, and then resting so you can do it again...for as long as it takes.
Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"
To be a political reporter in 2025, you have to be gullible enough to believe that a convicted felon who launched a violent coup attempt is worried about crime. Or you just have to be willing to pretend you’re that gullible. Either way, we deserve better.

www.ctvnews.ca/world/articl... The ‘false drug-trafficking narrative’ sounds mighty familiar. Is Trump going to start assembling thousands of troops at the Canadian border & blowing up Canadian boats off 🇨🇦 waters? How can we trust that those were actual drug traffickers in that boat? #BoycottUSA
The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.

The time has come for brutal truth. For the sake of hundreds of millions of victims of rape and sexual crimes, enough with protecting these monsters. Enough victims.
It’s time for these victims receive justice. It’s time for Trump to stop protecting the rich & powerful & to start telling the truth. It’s also time for Republicans in Congress to find the courage to sign the discharge petition that would force a vote to release the Epstein files. (2/2)
We’re back in session after Speaker Johnson let us out early at the end of July, feeling the pressure from our subpoenas for the Epstein files. Today, @oversightdemocrats.house.gov sat down with survivors who endured horrific abuse. What we heard was beyond disturbing. (1/2)
