Harvard in the news: Trump extortion of $200 million for $500 m to $2 b in 2025. Why not say F off a year ago use $53 endowment and wait him out. What is endowment for but academic independence, not succumbing

Around the world the point of the far right is not that governments are spending money. It is about governments spending money on poor people or infrastructure. The far right wants all that tax payer funding funneled into their own back pockets. That is their goal. Always and forever.

Let’s all stop giving him airtime at least until he is elected somewhere and then, dial it back. Him being elected in Alberta is the only positive I’ve heard about the Province’s annexation.

I’ve volunteered in many elections, it’s a great experience. The parties send scrutineers to observe and count and any problems that arise have always been dealt with swiftly and cooperatively. It is a very important institution, agree!

VPD needs to explain exactly what they mean when they say the suspect was known to police and has mental health issues, before this narrative gets spun any further. Mental health issues don’t cause murderous rampages. What do Vancouver police mean?

To a lawyer, this is the most dangerous plank in the piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre’s platform. If implemented, it would represent the complete Americanization of Canada’s legal system. We don’t appoint judges to be ‘strict’. We appoint them to find the facts and apply the law, including the Charter.

Ok, I admit to reading the G&M everyday, it’s legit, but you also just know they are chomping at the bit to find a way to endorse PP. Without fail, I think, they tip their hat to conservative “business” candidates. I’ll eat my words gladly to be wrong 😉 @theglobeandmail.com

Today a member of the legislature chose to spread residential school denialism in the house. This is harmful and deplorable. I stood up in the house and made it clear that we stand with survivors, their families, and communities.

Poilievre took four questions from news outlets they chose. There were two questions from local newspapers and then one question each from CBC, TVA and, as is Poilievre’s official policy, none were allowed a follow-up. THIS is how you avoid accountability try to manipulate the narrative. #neverCPC

According to Huff Post, Trump is on course to direct the federal government to spend at least $150 million a year following him to his for profit businesses. Not a trip to camp David folks, trips he profits off. Not a simple trip home for the weekend folks, trips to play golf at his course. Obscene.
