This is disgusting. These are the future GOP party leaders and their views. #uspoli Canada, don’t assume we’re immune, we definitely have this type here too. #cdnpoli

Well, Musk is at it again. Bribing people with the chance to win a million dollars if they sign his petition to remove judges he disagrees with. How is this legal, you ask? Well in MAGA country that really doesn’t seem to matter. 🇺🇸 #uspoli

Such a petty move. The library opened in 1905, purposely built both in Canada and the US as a show of solidarity between residents on both sides of the border between 🇨🇦 and 🇺🇸. Trump’s administration has now cut off Canada’s access.

Hmm now this seems like a strange move, unless you’re really, really scared of something.. Wouldn’t you welcome the press coverage during an election campaign?

That’s a half million decrease in one month. 🇨🇦 "We're only two months into a four-year administration. If they keep this up there will be no Canadians coming down here — there will be a 100 per cent boycott of this country," he (Saunders) said. #cdnpol #uspol 🇨🇦🇺🇸

It’s honestly quite interesting watching Conservatives react to getting exactly what they said they wanted. “Trudeau must go!” (“Nooooo, not like that!”) “Axe the tax!” (“Nooooo, not like that!”) 🇨🇦

I’m tired of constantly explaining the difference between TRQs & blanket tariffs when people say things like “Why is Canada worried about a 25% tariff when they have a 250% tariff on American dairy!” I’ve started just reposting an image of my explanation. I’m sure I’m not alone 😅 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 #cdnpoli

The number of Canadians who don’t understand how our own government works is astonishing. The process that made Carney PM Designate is not only legal but it’s also typical. It’s the same process we dealt with last in 2003, and first way back in 1891 when our very first PM died while in office. 🇨🇦

Yep! My family has canceled a plan trip to the southern US this year and we’ve opted to head to Newfoundland instead. As a bonus, we’re hopping over to France while we’re there! (St. Pierre and Miquelon islands). 🇨🇦🇫🇷

In case anyone was still on the fence about Donald J. Trump being the most vile person on the planet, this should clear things up. #uspoli America, get it together.

Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.

While driving in Charlottetown today I saw a Tesla with a vanity plate that said “EW TESLA” and I can only hope they’re stuck with the stupid thing and it was a form of creative protest 😂 🇨🇦

Just got back from a visit over at Twitter, man the conservatives are big mad that Ruby Dhalla was kicked out of the liberal leadership race so they can no longer pull their shadiness of trying to vote her in over Carney. It’s almost like they know if Carney wins he’s going to destroy Poilievre. 🇨🇦

Getting ready to install his “yes men” who will accept any and all orders, no matter how unhinged.

Republicans Against Trumpism@rpsagainsttrump.bsky.social

This military purge is about Trump installing loyalists in every senior role, just as he filled his cabinet with sycophants and enablers willing to carry out his dangerous and illegal orders. This won’t end well for our country.

Because Elon would have absolutely no underhanded reason to do this or stand to benefit in any way, right? No conflict there? He stated he wants to have it down by 2027, three years ahead of schedule.

On one hand, this feels karmic after they bowed to him so easily. Did they really think the leopard wouldn’t come for them? On the other, what a blatant breach of free speech. Regulating private businesses to suit the whims of an authoritarian is a dangerous game. #uspoli

Former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe was arrested at a city council meeting after stating, “MAGA is explicitly a Nazi movement. You may have replaced a swastika with a red hat, but that is what it is,” before engaging in peaceful civil disobedience.

A Missouri Representative has filed a bill to track pregnancies in the state. HB 807 will: "Maintain a central registry of each expectant mother who is at risk for seeking an abortion of her unborn child and make the same available to a prospective adoptive parent who has completed screenings."

Hot take: Adoption agencies requiring someone sign a “statement of faith” is absolutely ridiculous & shouldn’t be legal. A perfectly loving & capable couple could adopt that child but because they don’t believe in the same deity, in the same way, you’d rather that child be w/out a family. Gross.

Looks like a snowed in day to me! ❄️ Over a foot of snow came down yesterday evening and overnight in Central New Brunswick with a bit more coming today. Coffee, books, and Stardew Valley are calling my name!

Awful: Internal USAID memo instructs employees to refrain from talking to the media about cuts in assistance to the most vulnerable or they may get fired, WaPo reports. Trumpworld knows this is a big political problem for them. Keep the focus on it. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/1915...

newrepublic.comTrump-Musk Scandal at USAID Takes Unnerving Turn With Vile Leaked MemoCan Trump and his top advisers really just act with total impunity? Or is there, just maybe, a price to be paid for starving poor people and un-indicting a corrupt mayor?
