"China is now making more money from exporting green technology than America makes from exporting fossil fuels. " www.economist.com/leaders/2025...

Two things can be true at the same time, Canada. 1. Yes, I’m disappointed with some of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s approaches so far, particularly around climate action, and his definations of “nation-building.” We should expect better. 2. Carney is still light-years better than Pierre Poilievre.

AND today would be ANOTHER good day for Pierre Poilievre to prove to Canadians that he’s actually capable of passing the same, normal security check, & getting the standard security clearance he’s STILL refusing to get. Until he does, I’m still assuming that it’s because he KNOWS he can’t pass it.

New study finds that 80% of Canadians with the strongest belief in disinformation vote Conservative “80% of the most disinformed Canadians support the CPC.”

already here bucko

I disagree. We need to recognize that in our system we elect individual representatives, not captives to a party cult. They should be free to decide how to represent their riding, and can be turfed at the next election if we don't like what they do.

IF you get that....POST IT. I'm kicking in for tickets to Mara-Floriduh. ADDED BONUS: I really need to see this on live TV from that sanctimonious asshole Alan Dershowitz:

We all have to stop worrying about legacy media and create/fund new sources. It’s not 1998 anymore, the emperor has no clothes.

The solution to the male loneliness epidemic is attending a local Democratic Party canvassing event.

Has New York Democratic Party chairman Jay Jacobs resigned over Mamdani yet? I hope he hasn't, so that he can instead resign over *improving Republican margins over Trump 2024 in an anti-Republican wave election*. Trump won Nassau by just 4%—now look at this bloodbath

The Democrats' big idea prior to the election was to create a "Moderate Party" ballot line to offset the "Conservative Party" ballot line all the NY Republicans are also listed on for elections. Looks like it worked great! Its Democratic founder lost by 8 points!

@djinnandtonic.bsky.social made this one 4 months ago. Fucking prophetic.

I support everyone giving vast sums of money to Andrew Cuomo. It’s the “lighting a million quid on fire” art piece but this time performed by the worst people in the world.

Mamdani's hero is LaGuardia. He just mentioned him again. And I maintain he has more in common with New Dealers than socialists. But you can't responsibly write about him without writing about the Milwaukee "sewer socialists" of 1910-60. Nothing he says is new, only the applications.

Everyone is hope scrolling now

Had to share this from twitter just because

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

The DNC swept and I got to see thrice play deadbolt. It was a good night.

1) Congressional supremacy. 2) Free trade. Free movement. 3) Military keynesianism boot on the Russian army. 4) Build more housing. 5) Democratic revivalism. 6) Anti-corruption purge.

That moment when drones detected over NATO military base and over European airport and traffic halted because of it are not really breaking news anymore . We all are getting too comfortable with the total fckdupness of the world

ulysses s grant

The funny thing is, Johnson is looking at this through the power lense the GOP approaches power dynamics. He is articulating what the GOP would do if they were in the democrats position. The DNC on the other hand is willing to “norms and bipartisanship” themselves into oblivion.

Dear Canada, can someone explain why we are not doing this?? electrek.co/2025/11/02/n...

This shit is so crazy and so obviously our biggest problem underlying everything and anyone who says otherwise is either greedy or blind We said what we said

I don't think we have any idea what happens to an economy where 42 million Americans are suddenly and purposely starved by the ruling party.

And somehow the DNC is incapable of leveraging any of it to their benefit.

The inability of democrats to leverage this insanity is damning. Just an astonishing lack of political instincts from DNC leadership.

That America has allowed things to get so bad, so fast… Just stunning cowardice by so many.

A 2020 study found that Amazon—which shares owner Jeff Bezos with The Washington Post—is one of the largest employers of people on SNAP.

Why have the elites been so on board with fascism? We may never know.

The job of a good message isn't to say what is popular. The job of a good message is to make popular what we need said. MAGA and Madison Avenue have known and exploited this. But it also very much applies to campaigns for good. www.weekendreading.net/p/bringing-a...

This isn’t just an improper blending of church and state. It’s a twisted mockery of Christianity that ought to offend any actually devout Christian. Showing armed soldiers moving into battle as you lip service “… as we forgive those who trespass against us” sorta misses the point.

w/a further (US) reminder that the analogous catastrophes of the 21st century have been all-volunteer militaries, the conflicts nearly fully abroad, and so much MUCH smaller %s of the population (the 'warrior caste'). Militant colonialism hidden by scale and distance.

The Hockey Sweater is one of the most famous books in Canadian history. The story of a boy who received the wrong hockey sweater from Eatons has been featured on our currency and turned into an iconic NFB short. This is the story of that book. 🧵 1/12

“In my work with the (Nuremberg Trial) defendants, I was searching for the nature of evil, and I now think I have come close to defining it. A lack of empathy... a genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow men. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.” - Captain G.M. Gilbert, US Army

“They were careless people … they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made."

Congrats again, everyone. Truly, well done.

Hey Canada, I was sickened to see poppies being sold on Amazon. No way are they doing this in a charitable way! Please buy at the poppy shop or direct retailers where 100% of the money goes to the Legion. www.poppystore.ca
