Congratulations to our newest cabinet secretary for somehow finding a way to escape the life trajectory to which all previous humans named "Markwayne" have been limited (dying while trying to set a speed record in a boat painted to look like a pack of Marlboros)

The start of a new month already!? @waub.bsky.social wrote that the Anishinaabe name for this month is Onaabenii-giizis, meaning moon of the crusted snow, which matches the snow conditions here in Ottawa right now, and is also the title of his apocalyptic novel ecwpress.com/products/moo... .

Welp

If people listened to women, really listened, we wouldn't be in this mess.

Last surviving WWII veteran from Alderville First Nation celebrates 100th birthday and is honoured in style by the community.

Remember how the government bailed out the billionaires in 2009? How many of those people are in the Epstein files? They’ve been ripping you off for decades.

The reason they’re going to stuff you all into concentration warehouses instead of camps this time is because you have drones now and might take pictures.

This is a coin-operated president.

As a librarian, I have to say ... FUCK!

In light of Jean Chrétien's most recent denialist comments - story to come, basically he downplays the harm of the IRS system - I went down the rabbit hole researching how far Indigenous leaders lobbied him, as Minister of Indian Affairs in the 1960s and 1970s, to close the system 🧵

The 10 companies to boycott during February: - Microsoft - Apple - Amazon - Google - Meta - OpenAI - Netflix - Paramount+ - Uber - X

a woman reached out to donate 500,000 delta skymiles to get people home to MN as they are released from custody in TX. we're getting flights booked today. it should be enough to get at least 15 people home. delta should be doing for free since they take ICE money.

I love MN

How can anyone possibly defend what ICE/Border Patrol is doing?!

For places trying to reckon with the new US there are two countries to listen to. Canada, because we see what's happening there with the most clarity. And Finland, because they know what to do about it.

The Oglala Lakota Nation unanimously voted to ban ice from their reservation. www.netnewsledger.com/2026/01/23/o...

Agree!

The American Indian Movement started in Minneapolis in 1968 in response to police violence against Native Americans. Today, AIM is patrolling Minneapolis streets again–to try and keep the Native community safe from ICE.

If you live in the triangle and you haven’t yet done your grocery trip in anticipation of the winter storm, I regret to inform you that it is probably already too late.

My tribe just BANNED ICE from our rez!!!

2026 has only had twenty days so far. We're not through 1/15th of it.

I keep reading about how "Canada knew" about the American breakdown before everybody else. I just want to say I had a book out called "The Next Civil War" and absolutely everybody I spoke to about it began every conversation with "Aren't you being alarmist?" Nobody wanted to see it. So nobody did.

During colonization, churches snatched up a lot of sacred objects. In Utah, one of those objects was a 2,500 Ib rock covered in petroglyphs. The rock has been returned to its original resting place on the homelands of the Shoshone.

How can he disrespect the FIFA Peace Prize like this?

Bye bye 2025 (yayyy), hello 2026 (boooo)

There have been no good reasons for staying on Twitter for years now, but at this point you will have to follow up any of your remaining excuses with “…and I don’t care about the child pornography.”

A major sign of things getting dire in DC is when House members start breaking kayfabe like this. It's really, REALLY not fun to be a minority caucus member under a lame duck president. A cushy board seat or academic chairmanship sounds a LOT better and the race for the exits is obvious.

If you're going to dress your kids like Indians for Halloween, don't forget to complete the family outfit by dressing up like a priest.

Nazis are getting so out and proud they’re starting to wear their SS uniforms to the bar but they’re finding a whole world filled with people who just wish a motherfucker would.

mfs be like "how do you expect to get men onto the left if you are constantly demonizing things which are universally loved by all men" and the thing in question is hitler

A bunch of people trying to make me feel bad someone robbed the Louvre, lol. Like when the museums give back the world's shit I'll care about them getting robbed. When the French payback Haiti for paying for freedom from slavery maybe I'll care they lost a necklace.

Initiative to grant Rice Lake legal personhood status gaining momentum, says #Alderville First Nation chief. Taynar Simpson receives support from Alderville community, with recent #PortHope benefit concert raising more than $20,000 for initiative. kawarthanow.com/2025/10/17/i...

This Crash Course in American Native History are cute. Lily Gladstone does such a great job in this one: youtu.be/Dj8EjBQJD84?...

Earlier this week, we told you about Tia Wood, a young Cree woman from Alberta who is breaking down doors in the music business in a big way. APTN's Tina House had a chance to catch up with Wood to see what she's been up to recently.

These days most people know that Christopher Columbus was a genocidaire and that celebrating him is a disgrace. But did you know that he was also mediocre sailor nearly forgotten to history? @edburmila.bsky.social explained the Columbus myth back in 2017. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

There are lots of great reasons not to celebrate Christopher Columbus. Many moons ago in @thenation.com I wrote about one of the big ones: that the founding legend around Columbus was fabricated out of whole cloth in the 1790s to suit the needs of American politics of the moment.

i had no idea this is how canada's supreme court dresses

This book is a must-read, it's brilliant and well-researched. It's also terrifyingly accurate to how the next civil war could turn based on the events that have unfolded over the past 8 months - this was written in 2022. @stephenmarche.bsky.social

If non-American readers are horrified to learn that “campus open carry“ is a real phrase, have a seat before I tell you about “school lunch debt“

Our billionaire President put an airline lobbyist in charge of the Department of Transportation. So no, this is not a surprise.

Oh stop it, both the media for this idiotic reductive narrative and Dem centrists for being such astonishing wimps. The voters of NYC — especially young ones — made their clear choice, so either move along or go sit down. You win nothing by being cautious and scared www.politico.com/news/2025/09...
