I’ve unmasked a white nationalist fight club in my city: Montreal. After weeks of work (with help!), I can reveal an Olympian as a member of the Frontenac Active Club — one who, unbeknownst to the owners, brought them to a local gym for training and propaganda photos. Here’s my investigation:

Montreal Antifasciste has been looking out for this community since long before I did my latest investigation. Check out their work. They’re amazing!

New video and podcast about the rift in the MAGA Christian coalition over Iran. On one side, Wallnau, Feucht etc who see it as part of the end times. On the other, America 1st nationalists and trad Catholics who see it as a betrayal of nationalist principles and a fool's errand youtu.be/S_C07MzAMtM

That’s NOT what happened in Venezuela.

In the past two years, I attended numerous government and think tank meetings where it was fashionable to question and debate the casualty figures in Gaza as a way to distract from the human tragedy, Israel's brutal conduct of the war and Israel's ultimate aim (ethnic cleansing).

Headlines moved on quickly from the schoolgirls in Minab. We don’t know their names; no media profiles about their lives and aspirations. No smiling photos attached to quotes from mourning families. How unfair that some dead are memorialised while others are relegated to ‘estimated casualties.’

"They were girls who went to school to learn, with hopes and dreams for their future," Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai said. "Today, their lives were brutally cut short.” Read more: https://wapo.st/4r7izC7

Every stage of this process - his arrest, spending a year in jail, being dumped on the streets to die - would be deeply shameful in a society that actually valued human life.

I had to watch like 70 hours of Candace Owens for work. So the least you could do is read my dispatch from hell. www.ms.now/news/bride-o...

Thanks to @rachelgilmore.bsky.social for getting me to channel my rage into semi-coherent words.

“Antifa” is a sentiment and an organizing principle. There is no membership. He’d have better luck trying to find people who joined Paw Patrol.

When we said you should at least try to present a justification for war with Iran we didn’t mean just recycle the most discredited lies from Iraq

Foreign interference from India, including transnational repression, has been going on in Canada since the 1980s. It did not stop last week. You can agree that stabilization of relations is important with India is important, while not believing this BS. www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

One of the first things we were taught at Quantico was that there is never a moment in which you are not representing the Bureau; but, then again, we earned our place there, and weren’t granted its directorship as a sinecure for partisan malfeasance and a willingness to disregard the constitution.

21% of Americans, and just 40% of Republicans (!) support the US attacking Iran. 25% Republicans oppose, and 35% say don't know—a repository for Republicans who know what Trump is doing is wrong, but don't want to fully admit it—which is remarkably low for a Republican president using force abroad.

RIP Fred Brennan (a thread) Fred Brennan lived out much of his youth as a lonely wizard. For a time, he tipped his fedora as a supreme gentleman (supporting the Elliot Rodger murder spree). on many nights, Fred adopted the form of a robot (9000). However, he died as a man. An honorable man.

It’s time to talk about right-wing media. Because things aren’t just weird on Juno News, a platform that sat down with a mass deportation fan who even Jason Kenney called racist. There’s also a growing group of “influencers” that have Canadians scratching their heads. @lukelebrun.ca joins me:

More than 80% of transgender youth in the West and nearly three-quarters in the Northeast live in states with shield laws protecting their access to gender-affirming care. Read the full report at tinyurl.com/anti-transpolicy

It's important for New Zealanders who don't subscribe to the March 2019 Christchurch killer's violent extremism, & white supremacism to appreciate the degree to which what's in his 'manifesto' (which remains banned in the country) is openly signalled by, & inspires influential far-right podcasts.

They want to scare people out of posting ICE-critical content, because they know these posts are turning even their supporters against them. But the better option is to take a page out of their playbook and flood the zone.

I'm pretty sure I know. They aren't. We're not going to really be able to make a lot of progress in dealing with the implications of this tech unless and until we get rid of all this "woo-woo" talk about LLMs. Anthropic pushing this line is PR, unserious.

Tomorrow live at 11:00amET. It’s been a hard week. A teen was charged for allegedly promoting a Neo Nazi terror group. A horrific mass shooting happened. Transphobia kicked into high gear. @amaramarasingam.bsky.social and @faejohnstone.bsky.social join me to talk about these tough topics. Link:

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

This was a hard one to make — mostly because we shouldn’t even have to talk about this. We should be focusing on the victims. The families. The community. But some selfish, awful people are using this moment for their own political agendas. We can’t let them do that:

I'm going to go out on a limb and say this happened partly because francophone Canadian journalists are still using Twitter like it's 2018.

Has any journalist ever pointed out that this isn’t how math works?

Anytime the Ford Government uses the term “in-demand” you can basically say goodbye to most social sciences and humanities. news.ontario.ca/en/release/1...

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.

RCMP press conference is happening now. RCMP say that as police approached the school, they were shot at. The suspected shooter is identified as Jesse Rootsellar (I'm not sure if that's the correct spelling.)

These guys always just perform for an audience of one.
