If this one Conservative MP can embarrass his overpaid colleagues in Parliament into refusing pay raises they very much do not need, I'll applaud him. Esp. the ones exclaiming, "you can't afford groceries". www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

"We must try to reason with them, understand them, negotiate with them..." That advice died with Trump. We don't negotiate with people who "quietly remove health care for temporary foreign workers." www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

"A modern-day concentration camp ... People have been killed by the staff here." Irish citizen Seamus Culleton has been in ICE detention since September, despite having a valid work permit and his own business in the US.

No one sang Masters of War better than Odetta. The lyrics very much apply to what's happening in American cities today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Qfw...

Ontario police, like police across Canada, are very well paid. These are not hard up individuals who are tempted into crime to make ends meet. For once, the investigation will be external. No internal review this time. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Her bulb burned out long ago.

Ghislane won't co-operate unless she's pardoned. She suffers under the illusion being pardoned will mean a good life. She would need a permanent security detail. Does she still have friends? Who wants to associate with her. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Poilievre's priorities are ending DEI, making marijuana illegal again, and austerity. At this point, I'm hoping more of his chuds cross the floor. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

The BC Green Party has ended its co-operation agreement with David Eby's government, saying it has failed to live up to 2/3ds of its commitments. "Who are you working for"? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Indeed.

Today Ian Hanomansing is hosting Alberta separatists. Woman-hating, racist, libertarian morons. We made the mistake of giving MAGA deplorables oxygen, apparently we haven't learned anything. www.cbc.ca/news/are-you...

I have one question for Kat Kanada's husband. Why don't you just move to the US? If you genuinely think America can make you wealthy, what are you waiting for. It's the perfect time for you. cheknews.ca/victoria-man...

"Abbott's leadership faced criticism over unpopular budget cuts and declining public support, culminating in his replacement by Malcolm Turnbull in 2015. He remained in parliament until his defeat in 2019 by independent Zali Steggall." Poilievre shaking hands with a loser like himself.

I like this rug pairing.

Conservative sex tourist who cried when Poilievre lost, scolds "White Liberal female Premier of New Brunswick " for removing her government from X. "When men say they won't vote for women because they act too emotionally this is exactly why..."

In 2005, Howard Lutnick said he cut off ties with Epstein “I will never be in the room with that disgusting person ever again.” Records show their friendship continued for years, w/ family trips to Epstein Island and inking deals. theintellectualistofficial.substack.com/p/records-sh...

"Mom still cuts my bangs." - Conservative MP Matt Strauss

Politicians and lobbyists promoting nuclear power as "clean energy" are liars. They can make them smaller and they can make them portable but nuclear reactors produce radioactive waste. It's NOT CLEAN. And it's enormously expensive. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

This underwater sea curtains to arrest ocean water idea is one more "let's be crackpots instead of changing our behaviour". www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

It's all bad, but that last sentence is mindblowingly bad.

I live in a tower in a wealthy neighbourhood. Two adults (40ish) and their kid were using our back lot as their personal playground, so I talked to them and learned they don't even live in our building. They got super snippy. These entitled clowns live in a multi-million $ home nearby. 😦🙄

Jivani - and his fake news sites - are claiming he met with high level people like Trump, Rubio and Vance, and this can easily be cleared up if ONE REPORTER asks Trump how his meeting with Jivani went. Rubio and Vance have been in Italy this week. Arrived either Wednesday or Thursday.

The Burning of SS Morro Castle is a gripping mystery. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tscKGaH411g

Trump's fascism gets weirder by the day. US taxpayers are paying for "luxury private aircraft" deportations. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Poilievre's comms crew photoshopped Poilievre to appear much bigger than Carney in this meeting. It's so obviously fake. Toddler level petulance.

Jamil Jivani alone in a Washington park, a mile from the Capitol, claiming he's met with big important people. Hasn't named a single person he's allegedly met with. (His only Washington contact, JD Vance is in Italy for the Olympics).

Listening to this, the glaringly obvious reason homelessness is increasing is "developers buying up apartment blocks and jacking up rents". "With no renovations." Prohibit this, problem solved. It would be cheaper to socialize housing than permit greed. www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

Wait a sec. Jivani's only Washington contact is in Italy?

Algorithmic pricing: "companies gathering data on us as we go about our lives online use it to create personalized prices for something we’re looking at buying." 🤬 www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

The burden of being Poilievre. Jivani didn't mention Poilievre once in his video, didn't show the Conservative Party logo. Jivani is acting as if he's a party of one. Poilievre being Jivani's second fiddle is made even sadder by the fact Jivani is a virtual nobody. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

"Liberal MP Karina Gould said that as long as Jivani is not “going off on his own” and keeps in touch with the government, the government welcomes Conservatives’ “help with protecting Canada.” This is how you talk about a child who wants to play being a grownup. www.ctvnews.ca/politics/art....

Questions for David Cochrane's "power panel". Who paid for Jivani's unauthorized trip? If Poilievre didn't approve this trip, (assume he didn't, he's not saying a word about it), can someone ask him if he's lost control of Jamil? Jamil is undermining Canada and his party.

I failed nearly every high school science course because I wasn't interested then, and also a failure, and now I'm hooked on science. This analysis of the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald is painstakingly researched and respectful. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXR2...

Poilievre's blood boy spotted at the Conservative convention.

Leader net approval rating with Canadians Poilievre: -22, -6 Carney: +26, +23 Ekos' detailed polling shows Poilievre and his base are completely out of step with the vast majority. www.ekospolitics.com/index.php/20...

Melissa Lantsman says homeless Canadians living in cars listen to Poilievre's speeches (on the car radio) and find hope in his message. 🙄 Proving, once again, conservatives live in some alternate universe bearing no resemblance to this one. youtu.be/3WxN2HD864Y?...

Poilievre pleads to be included, is included, sabotages himself out of the gate. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqY4...

Nate Erskine-Smith is sketchy when he points out it would be illegal to offer a prospective crosser a cabinet seat, but then says "but you can hint" and "who knows". Ergo, fueling the unsubstantiated Internet troll mill. @beynate.bsky.social on Power & Politics. youtu.be/ntaMOvQI4Js?...

The price of a tax cut hardly benefiting individuals is higher than it's worth. www.cbc.ca/radio/whaton...

Steve Bannon plans to para-militarize polling stations with ICE goons working for Trump.

Ben Mulroney is leaving his slander up as a reminder to himself he's a shitposter.

Musk and Epstein exchange. oligarchwatch.substack.com/p/the-truth-...

Epstein Island client who said, "I kept my underwear on during the massage", wants to know "how many feminists demanding names have ever condemned Hamas for the rapes."

Poilievre's Pied Piper of the Incels is "heading to Washington to help Mark Carney succeed." Nowhere in this video does he mention Poilievre. www.nationalnewswatch.com/author/jamil...

Looks like the "big tent" party is the Liberal Party. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

This bill started out as a means to discriminate against Muslim women. They weren't targeting Catholic symbols. The 'oh shucks we got caught' bigots revised the bill to include their own religion. It's bigotry wrapped up as progressive social values. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Wealth planner by day, bomb maker by night. Wtf? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Can Bluesky do something about these creepy accounts?

His thesis is Carney is more dangerous than Poilievre. Reads like a 2026 version of Susan Sarandon's 2016 Hillary is scarier than Trump rhetoric. 100% doomer with no practical solutions. He actually published this nonsense thinking it has merit.

Nigel Farage's senior advisor bends over for Peter Thiel.
