“I’ve never protested before - but I just watched 4th & 5th grade kids run away from our own government.” 😕🇺🇸💔 (From @crindivisible.bsky.social )

Democracy Now: In Norway, police have charged former Prime Minister Thorbjørn Jagland with “gross corruption” over his close ties to Epstein, after the Council of Europe lifted the diplomatic immunity that came with his former post.

Democracy Now: In Dubai, the multinational logistics company DP World has fired its CEO, Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, one of the UAE’s most powerful figures. Emails show Sulayem traded messages about business and pleasure with Epstein for decades.

Looking more closely at the article I found this interesting site: canadiannetworkoncuba.ca And also a Government of Canada petition: www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

CBC of course has to conclude the article with a right-wing thought from the Munk School.

Mark Carney said that Canada is "considering" sending aid to Cuba. Before COVID, one million Canadians visited Cuba every year. Their convertavle peso is pegged to the Canadian Dollar. I argue that we need to send fuel and supplies ASAP, regardless of Trump. noraloreto.substack.com/p/canada-mus...

As with Gaza, so with Cuba. 💪 www.commondreams.org/news/cuba-fl...

Instructive that RNC Research reads "pedophile" but sees "President Trump".

You might think that the inhumane conditions at America's concentration camps is because of this administration's usual lazy incompetence, but, no, it's because of this administration's usual vicious cruelty.

Thank you lord for inventing juries.

Trump is so evil that sometimes I forget how stupid he is. he’s an absolute idiot.

This is concerning, that a rep feels they must post this. A lot in our coalition has felt the same way and worried about it, but didn’t think we’d be here publicly.

come on

In Senate committee last week, I pressed @globalaffairs.canada.ca: What is Canada doing to help avert the impending humanitarian crisis in Cuba that has been precipitated by U.S. economic coercion against Havana?

Please don't pronounce it JizzLynne as some commentators still do. I believe that although perhaps appropriate, it's incorrect.

The fate of the 2,787 people arrested for terrorism offences for peacefully holding signs saying “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action” in silent vigils will be decided this Friday. The long-awaited Judicial Review ruling will be read out at 10am in the Royal Courts of Justice.

Lowkey.

thank you to the thousands of people who have posted, commented, private messaged, texted, and phoned to offer condolences over yesterday morning’s passing of my wife Claudia Long. I deeply regret that I can only reply to the smallest fraction of you, but I want you to know that ... [1/2]

If you want to see moral clarity like this in Canada's House of Commons or Senate, check out Senator Yuen Pau Woo on Palestine or Cuba. Consistent intelligence, decency, and courage. Canada's senators are appointed, not elected, so even more credit to him for clearly speaking out.

Every time they turn the page on the Epstein Files, his name is there, too.

This is utterly deranged behavior from a U.S. attorney general

OMG - This really just happened: BALINT: This is not a game, secretary. BONDI: I am Attorney General. BALINT: My apologies; I couldn't tell.

Jayapal: To the survivors in the room, if you are willing, please stand. And if you are willing, please raise your hands. If you have still not been able to meet with this DOJ. Please note for the record that every single survivor has raised their hand.

We have a federal administration led by idiots and criminals.

Textbook. If you are surprised, it is because this shit usually, at least not in the last 150 years, does not happen in the US. And the past is mild in comparison

Concentration camps. You're building concentration camps, America.

Ontario, Canada.

The International Court of Justice has stated Israel illegally occupies The West Bank and Gaza, and must withdraw and pay reparations. Instead, this every day:

The same broken people that could rationalize Epstein’s depravity are now rationalizing concentration camps.

It does seem he knows more about something than most people do or would want to.

Israel restricting Rafah crossing movement. Since Feb. 2 only 180 of the estimated 20,000 Palestinians needed medical treatment have been allowed to cross the border into Egypt. 7 year old, Anwar Al-Ashi, died yesterday of kidney failure after waiting for permission to leave Gaza that never came.

I don't know who originally said or wrote this, but I like to remind myself from time to time. Capitalism isn't natural. It's a vile abomination. It must be stopped.
