Doug Ford is nowhere to be seen as a community burnt to the ground in Northern Ontario. His government is on a five month vacation as people are living in evacuation centres. He needs to explain why he cut the firefighting budget at a time of growing climate fires. youtube.com/shorts/e6qpf...

The wildfires in Ontario and Minnesota are a direct consequence of the high temperatures and low rainfall resulting from a major July heat dome event. A year ago we showed that these events had tripled in frequency due to human-caused warming: penntoday.upenn.edu/news/extreme...

Is this translated from the original German? www.whitehouse.gov/releases/202...

Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller made clear there must be no retreat: “One of the hallmarks of left-wing violence and terrorism is its completely pre-textual and disingenuous appeal to civil liberties in an effort to shield its own violence… When the leftist — who does not believe in freedom, who does not believe in civil rights, who does not believe in any ordinary notion of justice — protests that we are violating his rights, understand the he is lying to try to persuade people who are not closely following the political scene that some injustice has perpetrated against him. We must stay the course and be completely unflinching in the pursuit of justice against these enemies of civilization.”

Two years ago Poilievre implied in the House of Commons that Trudeau is a pedophile who sexually preyed on students in his capacity as a teacher. Last year in the House of Commons in a debate about wildfires, Poilievre said the government had started them. Why on earth let him back in?

It’s clear: Trump and Musk want to make it harder and harder for the elderly and disabled to utilize Social Security. They don’t care how much pain they cause. Their ultimate goal is to make Social Security dysfunctional, to privatize it and to let Wall Street take it over.
