You cannot tell voters (accurately) this is a fascist regime that is hell bent on destroying us - let alone rely on it (as Dems are) as your GOTV while also voting yourselves to enable the regime.

I love the idea that *this* US government, which has been nabbing landscapers and five year olds knows where Iranian sleeper cells are but just hasn’t gotten around to doing anything about it yet.

An excellent reflection on Smith and his misrepresentation for political purposes from @lindsaytedds.bsky.social deadfortaxreasons.wordpress.com/2026/03/09/p...

It doesn’t look good to take fifteen months to elect a new leader, only for it to be the guy who has twice failed to get elected in the most NDP-friendly part of the country. I’d jump the sinking ship, too.

Really enjoying seeing right wingers lose their minds on social about oil and gas prices, blaming Carney and Trudeau. Their solution? A national energy policy. 🤣👌

Three more vessels hit by projectiles in Strait of Hormuz

I know everything up is now down, but this truly is something new. State leaders don’t get murdered by other states. Didn’t happen with Hussein. Didn’t happen with Gaddafi. America and Israel are radically altering the rules of war here, and not in a good way.

BREAKING: The Baltimore Ravens have reached agreement with former Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson, sources tell The Athletic. After backing out of the Maxx Crosby trade, Baltimore pivots to sign the 2024 All-Pro.

Everyone in Canada right now.

Bam Adebayo took 44 free throws tonight Steph Curry took 47 free throws over 10 games in November

Putting aside the Liberal majority stuff, you have to wonder how much of that is based on whoever Idlout thinks is about to become next NDP leader.

Another embarrassing statement by our Prime Minister.

Truly obscene.

Appalling. The police commission approving this trip needs serious scrutiny as well. #yegcc

Some days it all feels worse. Today was one of those days.

The widely used satellite imagery provider, Planet Labs, has announced there will now be a two week delay on imagery related to the current conflict in Iran to commercial customers.

Today, Father Pierre Al-Rai was killed by Israeli army artillery shelling.

"Iran has some Tomahawks" is a shit lie, even by Trump's standards.

A lovely, election-time gift for the UCP. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Things in the U.S. are going to come to a head in the next month. I don’t think they are getting to November.

New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed, including children.

“Witnesses told the BBC that the Israeli soldiers had arrived disguised in Lebanese military fatigues and used ambulances with signs of Hezbollah's Islamic Health Organization.” (Israel has history in Gaza of dressing up as medics to infiltrate hospitals and kill people. Same playbook but Lebanon.)

BREAKING: At least 394, including 83 children, killed in Israeli attacks on Lebanon, Health Ministry says Trump dogwalked into an escalating global war by Netanyahu and Christian nationalists. What could go wrong?

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers. This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight. (🎥 Vahid Online)

You can’t make a secession question constitutional per the Court’s decision and if you tried, you’d probably violate the Clarity Act, which means it wouldn’t be clear and then there would be no obligation on Canada to negotiate. So again, what is this really for?

This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.

American RW extremists are slaughtering bioengineered red heifers in the occupied West Bank, carrying goats around in the back of U-Haul’s, and celebrating their own demise. But the Taliban…

Newly released footage shows an ICE agent killing Rubin Ray Martinez, 23, in his car in Texas. "He was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger." www.bbc.com/news/article...

This is a terrifying thread. And I wouldn't be at all surprised if the idiots running this war never considered it.

The issue in Edmonton for many years has been a LPC/NDP vote split. With the NDP election collapse and a lack of a leader, this is actually not that surprising. I’d expect a bounce-back of some sort, especially if the new NDP leader is Heather McPherson.

AFTER Putin reportedly shared U.S. weapons positions with Iran? How….odd.

My thoughts on what is holding the NDP back: 1) A leader who isn’t fit for the times 2) Too much party focus on the leader 3) Lack of a deep bench of MLAs 4) Communications built for 1996 5) No plan to sell to Albertans 6) Refusal to be progressive on climate and taxes 7) Overall lack of fight

Sharpton: "We're still here! We've come this far by faith. It was against the law to read and write! It was against the law to marry, but we've come this far by faith. I don't care what they do in Washington, I care what we do in the community. We've beat people bigger than Trump!"

Sharpton: "The problem is not Trump. The problem is us. What happened to us?"

Tomorrow marks the 61st anniversary of Bloody Sunday in Selma, Alabama. It also marks the 60th anniversary of the Supreme Court first upholding the Voting Rights Act. We have gotten so, so far away from a Court that cares about democracy. New from me at @brennancenter.org:

If we really want to get into this Holy War business, as a student of Catholic theology/history can I point out that Hegseth is actually a heretic and that if we went back to the times he longs for he would be in deep, deep shit?

⚡️US joins Russia, China in opposing IAEA resolution condemning attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure. The U.S. voted against a resolution condemning attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure during a meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Board of Governors on March 5.

Bernard LaFavette, voting rights advocate, non-violence theorist, & teacher has died. Another mighty oak has fallen whose legacy will fertilize the aspirations of future generations rising from the forest floor. May his memory be a blessing.

The real question is, where is Nenshi going to run?

An original Nashville sit-in member, along with Diane Nash, James Bevel, and John Lewis. Trained in non-violence by James Lawson. At age 21, he signed a will before the Freedom Rides, knowing he could die. May his soul be at peace, and may we all have such courage in the face of oppression.

I've got laryngitis so I'm not on TV today. but if I was, I'd remind everybody that mass deportation *remains* family separation, whether Noem or Mullin or anyone else is Trump's DHS Secretary. and that policy has not changed.

The cost was too high, but I hope the people of Minneapolis, Los Angeles, Chicago, Portland and Washington can share a little victory toast tonight.

I was a child model for Holt Renfrew.
