This is why the GOP wants to convince you that 'SOCIALISM' is a bad word.

Canadian commentator @deanblundell.bsky.social absolutely unloads on Trump in an interview with @macfarlanenews.bsky.social: “We’re laughing at him. We’re mocking him… This is not a serious man. This is not a serious president.” He says Trump's become a “caricature” in Canada with “nowhere to go.”

Canada fuels American growth. Canada supplies 99% of natural gas imports, 85% of electricity imports and 60% of crude oil imports. I don't think they want us to stop sending any of that energy. -PMCarney #TrumpTariffs

When trade negotiations mutate into attempts to deconstruct Canadian culture, tell us to eliminate our official second language, and that we can’t trade within the global market? That’s an abusive ex spouse who keeps threatening to batter you.

Gary, Indiana is 77% percent Black. Thousands have been without power for nearly two weeks. Many are without safe water. Yet every data center is operational & using enormous amounts of both power and water. This is what oligarchy looks like. Everyone suffers so the 1% can make even more.

I’m listening to seasoned reporters talk about how frightened they were during the shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner last night and imagining how much worse it is for America’s children. If there’s ever been a time to pass sensible gun control laws, it’s now.

John Oliver reports that nearly HALF of ICE recruits could not pass the open book written exam and were sent home. Clearly, they are targeting young, barely literate men to become enforcement officers to carry guns and terrorize their neighbors. Look up a Nazi soldier by the name of Adolf Eichmann

This is what ICE does every day. Hunt little kids who are here legally. They get sent to a place called the “baby jail” in Texas. Very little of it ends up on video like this. But it’s routine. And disgusting.

DHS should be embarrassed that their ICE agent hires are so soft they can’t handle being videotaped, even while masked, so they resort to pepper spraying women at close range. And we should be proud of the Santa Barbara women who stood their ground anyway.
