In advance of the deluge of posts suggesting that the dismissal of the Comey/James indictments were based on...I dunno, technical legal minutiae exploited by rogue, "activist judges", let's reiterate: The government's claims were sh!t: youtu.be/zH7vvFKfew0?...

Gotta say...VP Vance talking sh*t about a place is kinda like when your worst aunt tells you to stop masterbating or you'll wind up in hell with Lenny Bruce and Toni Morrison. Part of you is like, "eternity with my favorite people, just for masterbating? Which sin gets me a VIP pass?"

"PAY NO ATTENTION TO THAT MAN BEHIND THE CURTAINS! IT WAS THE WALL STREET JOURNAL THAT TRANSFERRED GHISLAINE MAXWELL TO A MINIMUM SECURITY THEME PARK! JEFFREY EPSTEIN'S BIRTHDAY CARD WAS HAND-DRAWN BY A WINDMILL! THAT EMAIL EXCHANGE WAS FAKE NEWS WRITTEN BY D.E.I! www.bbc.com/news/article...

In lighter news, kinda feels like Kim Kardashian is auditioning to be the Chuck Norris of the legal profession, coupled with girl-boss-attitude lifted straight from the Disney live-action remake school of feminist discourse. Now little girls everywhere know they can be rich a$$holes, too!

Can't help but feel cynical as the MAGA base's affection for their aspiring despot has proved to be pretty resilient, but here's hoping the Michael Wolf emails shatter any illusions they have left.

It kills me that POTUS may receive $230 million from US tax payers as "compensation" for the Russia & Mar-a-Lago investigations, meanwhile Abrego-Garcia -- who the DOJ admitted they deported to a Salvadorean torture prison in error -- can't even accept Costa Rica's offer of refugee protection status

“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—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...”

Imagine being more concerned for the wellbeing of dangerous drivers than people facing homelessness. This would be like if a dad stopped paying for his diabetic kid's insulin but forked up funds to cover his mistress's boob job. Thanks, Captain Canada.

So to recap, speed cameras -- a cost-efficient means to hold dangerous drivers accountable -- is an unfair burden on tax payers, but rent control -- a mechanism to prevent landlords from extorting rent hikes from tenants -- is a hindrance on development. globalnews.ca/news/1150266...

People will die just as democracy has. No consultation. It’s Trumpy.

Oh, so *now* you care about the Constitution, Mr. Speaker??? Glad you've seen the light. Just a little surprised that it took the threat of a 3rd term for you to see it, as opposed to, say, deporting asylum claimants to a torture prison without due process: abcnews.go.com/Politics/spe...

This is more than another instance of corruption from the most morally bankrupt administration in recent US history. It's an attempt at historical revisionism that rebrands Trump as a victim when he broke the law. Don't let him. #nokings #Indivisible #IndivisibleOttawa www.cbc.ca/news/world/w...

Portland, LA, DC, migrants, trans youth, international students, journalists, and every American standing up for social justice, Canada stands with you, now and ALWAYS #Indivisible #indivisibleOttawa #noKings #NoTyrants

"Captain Canada" plays self-appointed goon to local Home Depot to recover kitchen knife: www.ctvnews.ca/toronto/poli.... There is so much wrong with this article, starting with...

Throwback to yesteryear, when Jimmy Kimmel hosted weekly satirical tributes to the FCC without threat of government censorship: 2009 was a different time, and the Obama administration was a very different administration. youtu.be/Dt02WkZVqZQ?...

Be better. Put your country first.

Those using Charlie Kirk's death as an excuse to villainize trans people: "The Violence Prevention Project at Hamline University... found that males were the perpetrators in 98% of [mass] shootings, female shooters accounted for 2% of the attacks and transgender people accounted for less than 1%."

Is there such thing as a reverse Potemkin village? A Potemkin wasteland? Like if crime in a city drops to a 30 year low but the president questions the veracity of the data and deploys the National Guard to occupy the city? Anyways, good read. Check it out.

I've been vegetarian for most of my life, but you don't see me running up and down the streets, flipping hotdog carts over to block others from enjoying meat. There is no freedom to oppress. I can't believe I have to explain this.

In another instance of art imitating life, Dean Cain confirms that Superman really was Homelander this whole time. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Shock! Israeli government lied. Stop the starvation. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/26/w...

Alan Cumming on bathroom bills: "Why on earth would a rapist go through the bother of pretending to be trans in a country that treats rapists better than trans people."

I don't want to be salty. If the Epstein case serves as a come-to-Jesus moment for the MAGA base, then better late than never. However, I can't help but wonder where these three-time Trump supporters were when a jury of peers found then-citizen Trump liable for sexual abuse of E. Jean Carroll.

Truth is an absolute defense to defamation and he’s not going to like the discovery process here. Never thought I’d be rooting for Rupert Murdoch but he’ll has frozen over.

Reporter: "Do you believe the president has the power to fire or demote you?" Jerome Powell: "Not. Permitted. Under. The law. " Me: Okay, but like, when has that *ever* stopped him?

Just saw a poll asking if CEOs are the new rock stars. I mean, maybe 20 years ago, Steve Jobs could've passed for some sort of David Bowie-esque visionary and Musk certainly *wants* to be Kanye, but I'm still voting 'no'.

Found out that the barista at my local coffee shop has a side hustle back-up dancing for drag shows, and it's the coolest fact I acquired all day. Just goes to show that everyone has a story :)

#Baltimore Mayor #BrandonScott invested in 42 summer youth camps, 29 literacy programs, extended the rec center hours to 11 p.m, planned block parties, opened the pools for safe fun, & opened several schools up for summer classes. Crime is down 62%. 🔥🔥 www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

Someone I follow recently posted that it's hard to be an American right now, and sure, after the Supreme Court ruling on nationwide injunctions and the passing of the BBB, this week has been rough. But America is a beautiful, messy place with a lot that truly makes it great.

Republicans just voted NO to saving health care for MILLIONS of people. @wyden.senate.gov demanded that the Senate remove every single Medicaid cut from this bill because we believe no baby should go hungry so Jeff Bezos can buy another yacht. Hear that again: Republicans voted NO.

Between 2000 and 2017, rent prices in Ottawa rose by about $14-$26/month. From 2019-2024 (when Doug Ford killed rent control), they rose by $60-$100/month. Something to raise with 'Captain Canada' next time he starts grandstanding about defending Canadian interests www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Senate Republicans are trying to jam through their “Big Beautiful Bill" that would kick 17 MILLION people off of their health care. I’m on the Senate floor to say NO. youtube.com/live/6RL1Aj8...

BREAKING: A federal court today granted bail to Mahmoud Khalil. He will be able to return to New York to be with his wife and newborn son while his case proceeds.

So proud to have been part of this movement, and grateful to #IndivisibleOttawa for stick-handling the logistics (there's a hockey/ #ElbowsUp joke in there somewhere that I'm too tired to make) so we could let our voices be heard. #NoKings #NoTyrants #Indivisible

To the activists south of the border standing tall against authoritarianism, Canada stands with you :) #Indivisible #IndivisibleOttawa #NoKings #NoTyrants

The late Toni Morrison once said The function of freedom is to free someone else. I was reminded of that at today's #IndivisibleOttawa #NoTyrants protest. #Indivisible #NoKings

"Part of your power is your voice. Speak up." Will be attending the #NoTyrants protest at the Ottawa, Canada at 2pm in solidarity with protesters throughout the United States to take a stand against tyranny. #Indivisible #NoKings #IndivisibleOttawa

Reminder that the Ottawa Canada protest is at 2pm tomorrow, June 14, in front of the American Embassy (on the York street steps). Come out! You just might salvage democracy but if nothing else, you'll help give POTUS a miserable birthday :) Follow #IndivisibleOttawa for more information.

"Democracy is saved by individuals who stand up for principles even in the face of overwhelming power." A good reminder in the lead-up to tomorrow's #NoKings, #NoTyrants protests. #indivisible #IndivisibleOttawa open.substack.com/pub/briankla...

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

For an administration seemingly defined by political Rubicons, POTUS's decision to call out the National Guard to quell peaceful protests somehow manages to stand out If we respond with indifference he will just keep going, & other would-be despots will take notes #Indivisible #Resist #NoTyrants

"Nobody’s going to spit on our police officers," says Trump, who four months ago pardoned people who beat police officers with pipes, flagpoles, baseball bats and 2-by-4s at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

"A lot of these peaceful protests are being generated because the president of the United States is sowing chaos and confusion by arresting people who are showing up for their immigration hearings, who are trying to abide by the law." Senator Corey Booker www.bbc.com/news/article...

Rights to freedom of expression trampled upon so ICE can meet an arbitrary arrest quota. This from a man who sued Facebook after they suspended his account when he attempted to overturn an election. Imagine only supporting "free speech" to promote authoritarianism. #freedomofspeech #ruleoflaw

Any Elon-apologists regarding his prospective donations to Dems as the first act of his redemption arch should probably seek clarification on what he expects in return. His very public POTUS divorce proceedings do not negate the harm inflicted by DOGE or the massive conflicts of interest at play.

Don't worry, Great Britain -- we cool. However if my fellow Canadians are still looking to say no fascism and rage against the machine, I hear that @indivisibleottawa.bsky.social is hosting "No Tyrants" protest at the American Embassy @ 2pm on the 14th BE THERE! #Elbowsup #resisttrump #indivisible
