As I just said on radio Poilievre lost his riding, a 20 point lead, majority of women voters and now has to use intimidation to keep his caucus together which is one more sign he’ll never win conservatives an election. How many more signs do conservatives MPs need? #cndpoli 🇨🇦

“This Poilievre intimidation stuff is deeper and darker than most people realize. If he’s willing to do this to his own MPs in Caucus imagine him as Prime Minister doing this shit to Canadians!” OShow Scandal Panel 🇨🇦#CndPoli 🔗 youtu.be/GTfWSVd7ov0?si…

Trump every time he’s confronted about one of his lies: “Who are you with?” Reporter: Gives name of company. Trump: You’re fake news. You’re terrible. I’m not calling on you anymore! You should be ashamed of yourself! This is why nobody watches you! Then goes back to lying.

Prices since Trump took office: -Groceries: ⬆️ 2.7% -Utilities: ⬆️ 11% -ACA premiums: ⬆️ 26% -Overall consumer prices: ⬆️ 3% Trump: “I don't want to hear about the affordability.”

It would be wise for us to remember that Trump praised China for the Tiananmen Square massacre.

My hope on this Halloween day, is for the Jays to make it extra spooky for those Dodgers. You’ve got this #TorontoBlueJays

Trump’s “mental faculties are crumbling like blue cheese, and major media need to write prominent stories about this alarming problem – not just stick a sentence into the 14th paragraph of a news story.” My free Stop the Presses newsletter.

Trump hates that people are calling it the “Epstein Ballroom”. We’re about to make him very upset. 🏴‍☠️

America’s billionaire media moguls are not on your side. They cannot be trusted, and they do not love their country. They love money and power. More than anything else, they are fearful people who live in terror of Trump. Pathetic doesn’t begin to describe it.

We need to not only resist Donald Trump, but stop Trumpism from becoming a permanent ideology in American politics. Argentina is a warning. ICYMI @raders.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/is-the-arg...

Rule of Law Alert: Trump’s authority for country-specific tariffs comes from the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which doesn’t mention tariffs—but does require a national emergency. An ad showing that Reagan opposed tariffs surely is not a national emergency. (It may be a personal one)

The president announces an arbitrary price hike on Americans because his feelings are hurt by an ad accurately quoting Ronald Reagan’s criticism of tariffs

It’s not his house. It’s your house. And he’s destroying it.

A picture is worth 1,000 words.

Donald Trump is not paying for the huge construction projects at the WH out of his pocket like MAGA claims. He started out with that lie, but then admitted more than once, on video, that he’s been shaking down CEOs & rich people who want something from the government. As usual.

Also, remember, apathy is the enemy. Authoritarians want you to give up in advance.

"In an authoritarian context, all journalism will tend toward propaganda unless it is explicitly formulated as anti-authoritarian. Unless an institution is explicitly designed to counter authoritarianism, it will end up aiding the authoritarians."

OBAMA: “What if I sent the National Guard into Texas and said I don’t care what Governor Abbott says… and just kind of took over?” Imagine that. Fox News would’ve held a 96-hour emergency broadcast with 18 split screens and a countdown to “Tyranny Day.” But when it’s Trump doing it? Crickets.

"Authoritarianism, it's a cancer. The symptoms are here, today... We thought it couldn't happen here... and now the disease is growing, metastasizing in America. But there is a cure—it requires you. On October 18, Americans will stand up, peacefully, for what makes America, America." nokings.org

Home of the Brave launched a $1 million national ad campaign in support of the peaceful No Kings rallies on Oct. 18th. The ads will run in over 185 local papers and The New York Times, USA Today and The Washington Post calling on Americans to “peacefully protest our false king."

For Americans in the back: Canadians are a peaceful cool people who would prefer not to worry about you or boycott you or resist you but MAGA and threats to our country force us to. We will stop giving you our money, our tourism and our respect until you stop this fascist regime.

I wonder what percentage of mass shootings would have been preventable if the potential shooter did not have a gun.

Couldn’t Trump just use the $17 trillion he says he got from all these other countries to fund the government? That should cover us for a while. Where is that, by the way?

To President Trump, the veracity of statistics and scorekeepers can turn on a dime. When data works in his favor, he praises, repeats and often exaggerates the figures. When the numbers on crime or the economy run counter to his narrative, they are frequently deemed “fake,” “phony” and a “fraud.”

Kimmel: "The President of the United States made it very clear he wants to see me and the hundreds of people who work here fired from our jobs. Our leader celebrates Americans losing their livelihoods because he cannot take a joke."

Some heavy handed symbolism here?

“Charlie Chaplin was willing to mock Hitler. Colbert and Kimmel were willing to mock an American president with his own authoritarian designs. What will the rest of us be willing to do in order to stand up to fascism?” Al Franken writes. Commentary: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Breaking news: The British government said it was formally recognizing a state of Palestine, breaking sharply with the U.S. and reversing decades of unwillingness to accept Palestinians as a sovereign nation.

President Donald Trump pledged to bring down grocery costs. But his administration's policies are contributing to an acceleration in prices, food economists and companies say. https://cnn.it/46Shxlp

In the week since Charlie Kirk’s assassination, Russia, Iran and China have spread thousands of false or incendiary claims about what happened to the conservative activist, in an effort to stoke political divisions or to portray the U.S. as a dysfunctional country.

Now, more proof that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. How can western governments still refuse to act? | Steve Crawshaw

Quick point. Trump cannot silence you, period. He doesn’t have the means or the tools, and if he did he would be too weak to use them. This is a bluff. It only works if you let it.

Keir Starmer is betting everything on an America that doesn’t exist any more | Rafael Behr

JUST IN: An independent United Nations inquiry has concluded for the first time that Israel has committed genocide against Palestinians in Gaza and that the country’s top leaders have incited genocide, in what it described as “the “most authoritative UN finding to date.” https://cnn.it/3VjaHzS

Israel has committed genocide in Gaza, says UN inquiry

"Evidently China is farther along in its project than I realized, because Xi has reached the point where he no longer humors Trump. Which means that the Chinese believe America’s decline is terminal."

Take off that Cavalry hat, you draft dodger. You didn’t earn the right to wear it. Stolen valor at its worst.

The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents. In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.

Europe stands, and will continue to stand, fully behind Ukraine. We are reinforcing Ukraine’s armed forces, building lasting security guarantees, and tightening sanctions to increase pressure on Russia. The killing must end.
