The IOC strikes me as a terrible organization & ignoring the original ideals of the Olympic spirit. Russia and Belarus are waging war against peaceful sovereign Ukraine. I hope Canada boycotts this as well. I feel for our Paralympic athletes who are thrown into this situation.

So are we all in agreement that any members of the men’s hockey team who attend the State of the Union address tonight are huge assholes who should be showered with boos for the rest of their career?

Any American athlete that didn’t speak out against the fascist trump regime will forever be compared to Hitler’s 1936 Olympic squad I don’t make the rules, that’s just how history works

🗣️I'm old enough to remember you yourself feared for your life when the insurrection Trump fomented nearly had you killed as you were cowering behind the barricaded door to the House floor as a Capitol police officer, gun drawn, was protecting your sorry-ass. After, you called it a 'tourist visit.'🖕🏼

A+ State of the Union counterprogramming by TCM.

Wonderful post. Slava Ukraini! 🇨🇦❤️🇺🇦

Rubin: "There is at least one witness for whom 3 interviews with the FBI in in 2019 are missing [from the Epstein files]. What's the big deal? We can also confirm she is the same person who in a 2025 FBI presentation is identified as accusing Trump of a sexual assault when she was between 13 and 15"

If we did an honest look at externalities, AI massively *subtracted* from the economy. Mass water and power usage for dancing panda videos are value-negative.

“By declining to become the 51st state, Canada has avoided a government involved in pedophilia and lethal deportation tactics.”

Every time these "51st" comments are broadcast, the person saying it is only hurting US businesses such as the wine/spirits industry and tourism.

The US is currently a terror state. There are 11 million people living in Cuba & because the US has a grudge with the politics of this extremely poor country they are waging a war of terror with them. Cuba has now run out of power as a direct result of the terror actions www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Couldn’t agree more that 🇺🇸is operating as a terrorist state. Also feel very certain we 🇨🇦could just as easily be targeted & the world might not leap to our defence. Cuba is a friendly country with 🇨🇦 & I wish we’d already helped them.

The Ford Pinto wasn't just infamous for catching fire and killing people during a crash; it was infamous for the leaked memo where Ford said the $50million to pay off survivors was less than the $121million to recall and retool, so the deaths were an acceptable business issue. The Cybertruck is...

Is there anyone Oprah made famous that isn't a total piece of shit? www.cnn.com/2026/02/23/p...

The USA is no longer a desired tourist venue as incidents like this indicate it is violent and does not value human rights nor protect its people. It is being downgraded to a pariah nation.

The SS or the Gestapo has nothing on the slugs from ICE...sadistic cruelty, viciousness, and an utter lack of humanity. I am sure they identify as Christians, as did the Nazis...including the camp guards who dragged victims to the gas chambers. ICE is the just the same...and is just as barbaric.

And people wonder why I want to abolish the senate. #abpoli #cdnpoli #abhealth #UCPCorruption #UCPPublicInquiryNOW @pfparks.bsky.social

Billie Eilish recently asked a room full of billionaires, “If you’re a billionaire, why are you a billionaire?” One reason? Their wealth keeps growing, yet many of them are giving less to charity now than they have in years. Billionaire philanthropy is a sham. Watch. youtu.be/aNZ7mE82UJ0?...

The US Women’s Hockey team declines meeting with a serial rapist and child rape trafficker. The US “men’s” hockey team however jumped gleefully at the opportunity to meet Jeffrey Epstein’s best-friend.

Canada reduced intel sharing with US, Mexico reduced intel sharing with US, UK reduced intel sharing with US, EU reduced intel sharing with US, the Baltics & Nordics reduced intel sharing with the US. Intelligence and trust makes the world run, lose it & you collapse.

Because several of the replies in this thread have brought it up -- I *highly* recommend this pod on indoor air quality. Immensely illuminating:

⚡️ Denmark is boosting military aid for Ukraine to nearly $2 billion for 2026.

The USS Gerald Ford had to request an emergency dock in Greece

"If they try to take our country away from us, our freedom, our lives, the lives of our children, we will defend ourselves. Not attack, defend ourselves. And when you attack us, you will see our faces, not our backs, but our faces." - President Zelenskyy, 2022. #StandWithUkraine #3E

Glory to all the men and women who have stayed to defend their homeland! Shame on every country that promised to protect Ukraine and hasn't. Shame especially on the US who has turned the war into a money making scheme.

#VictoryToUkraine.

Zelenskyy: "Putin has already started this war. And we are preventing him from turning this into a broader, full-scale World War III. Today, we are the outpost stopping Putin." Glory to the heroes, victory to Ukraine. #StandWithUkraine #3E

He speaks the truth. #Ukraine is holding the line, taking every hit, while #Europe sits on its haunches eating popcorn. Since #Putin has broken every rule, there is no reason for foreign troops NOT to engage on Ukraine's behalf and bring an end to this war.

Zelenskyy is right about this assessment. Yet he still has to fight for every single bit of support that is given to helping Ukraine fend off a blatantly evil and genocidal Russia!

⚡️ Zelenskyy says stopping Russia now is key to preventing World War III.

Tonight at 9pm - and on their respective streamers - are two massive pieces of TV about white-hot issues, one of which may provoke an outcry as big as Mr Bates vs The Post Office: #DirtyBusiness (C4) dramatises an amateur investigation into sewage dumping & the UK's privatised water industry... 1/3

Russia’s overnight strikes left civilians dead and wounded across Ukraine. 🧵 1/2

Wait --- look who is in the FBI files circa 2021 --

Any American players who play for Canadian NHL teams who accept Trump's invite will not be welcomed back by the majority of Canadians Ottawa Senators Jake Sanderson Brady Tkachuk Toronto Maple Leafs Auston Matthews Winnipeg Jets Kyle Connor Connor Hellebuyck #BoycottUSA #BoycottUSTravel

It's official: US Gold Winning Olympic Hockey team declined invitation to be political props for Trump at the SOTU tomorrow The women, that is The men are still too stupid, self-absorbed and misogynistic to realize that going, will stick to them permanently

Senator @CoryBooker’s decision to help confirm Kushner’s criminal father is aging about as well as expected — he was just banned from their government after failing to show up when summoned for meddling in their domestic affairs

The trucker convoy, Alberta separatist movement and American-owned media pretending to be Canadian are part of a multi-year, well-funded organized plot to overthrow Canada and make our country the 51st State. We see you. You will never take Canada True North Strong and FREE. 🇨🇦

They were yellow vesters, mavericks, wild rose, reformers, then ucp. The ucp were always the same. They pushed out anyone who wasn't far right enough for them. They slowly keep pushing the public further and further to the right. Then they do what Hitler, Stalin, Putin, Trump, and Harper did.

I'm old enough to remember when polio ripped through the globe and put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. RFK Jr. is a disgrace.

NEWS: Former ambassador Lord Peter Mandelson has been ARRESTED in the UK after police searched two of his homes as part of an investigation into alleged misconduct in public office tied to the Epstein probe.

Margaret Atwood warned us all for decades about this. CorpSeCorps is the fictional model for these goons.

Tortured, raped, killed - SHUT THEM ALL DOWN bsky.app/profile/seth...

Most importantly the ENTIRE REPUBLICAN PARTY!!!

What is this country doing?

We may have won silver but our players have a heart of gold 💛 unlike the disgusting US team and their behaviour in that locker room. The misogyny towards the female hockey team. Disgusting 🤮 but unfortunately this Canadian is not surprised in the least.

The orange turd apologized to the men that he has to also invite the women’s team when he FaceTimes them. The players called him boss and dad 🤢 I wonder how the women in their lives feel about this behavior, their mothers, daughters,wives!?!

Gallego: "They're going and racially profiling people and rounding up Americans until they can prove their citizenship. That money came from kicking millions and millions of Americans off Medicaid. It was the same bill. They cut Medicaid to expand ICE."

Norway makes ski equipment and facilities free for kids and they have become the world's greatest sporting nation. There's a lesson in there somewhere. But we just refuse to make the uber-wealthy fractionally less wealthy in order to fund a healthy society.
