New Abacus Data #onpoli poll: Approval of the Ford government has fallen sharply. Just 35% approve while 40% disapprove, pushing the government into net negative territory for the first time in months. Details: abacusdata.ca/ford-govern...

SLOTKIN: So the fact we have ICE agents saying out loud to people they're trying to arrest that 'we're gonna put you in a database,' they are making that up? LYONS: We do not do that

Happy birthday to the Prof, who’s made it into the Times 🎉🥳🎂

This is Elain, Rhysand, and Cassian. The mischievous trio ingested something toxic, making them all very sick. Thanks to your support of our merch, @15outof10.org was able to cover their $9,400 hospital bill. They all made a full recovery, and each of the puppies found a forever home ❤️‍🩹

This is Bogie. This rope is his very favorite toy because it makes his tiny human smile too. 13/10 (TT: _chelsea_brown_4)

BRONZE FOR CANADA 🇨🇦 Canada’s Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier, in their third Olympics together, finally get their moment. With a memorable free dance, a season’s best score, Piper and Paul have won Olympic bronze. What moment for them.

That’s back-to-back medal days for Canada right here at the Milano Ice Skating Arena. Canadian mixed relay silver yesterday. Piper and Paul bronze today. And get ready for more hardware potential tomorrow from Canada’s short track skaters in the women’s 500m and men’s 1000m

I love the Olympics. For nights like tonight. When everything athletes hoped and dreamed and trained for is realized. Piper and Paul. Outstanding. Making the trek back to the hotel. And back here for more tomorrow.

Shot, and one-hell-of-a-chaser.

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise. BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

The picture that's emerging is one of absolute tragedy for the young victims, a teacher, the shooter and her family. There are unresolved questions here about why/how the guns were returned and what mental health supports were available for a deeply troubled teen.

"We heard that repeatedly over and over again—people did not know what 'interior enforcement' was....People did not know that meant you're kicking open the door of people who live in these communities....literal people in your neighborhood. And U.S. citizens." Valuable conversation here👇

DHS initially claimed the shooting of Marimar Martinez was justified because agents “were ambushed by domestic terrorists that rammed federal agents with their vehicles.” Footage reveals that agent Charles Exum slammed his SUV into hers and shot Martinez seconds after leaving his vehicle.

NEW: Ontario is not currently on a path to balance, according to the province's financial watchdog. A new report suggests lower-than-previous revenue will harm attempts to balance the budget. #OnPoli globalnews.ca/news/1166319...

Canada doesn’t usually have school shootings; tonight, we did.

I can appreciate as a Canadian that school shootings are so rare that the prime minister suspends his entire schedule over this tragedy.

We can’t always prevent the worst, but we can decide who we are when it happens. #tumblerridge

This teenager saved his neighbor's dog from drowning in a freezing pond. This is Bernard. His family contacted emergency services right away, but high school senior Hugh Pinneo got to Bernard first. Hugh said he's "just glad I acted that day and saved the dog's life." We are too. 12/10 for all

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

Goldman to Lyons: "You said in your opening statement that references to ICE as 'the Gestapo' or 'secret police' encourages threats against ICE agents. The problem is you have it backwards. People are simply making valid observations about your tactics, which are un-American and outright fascist."

"Images obtained by CBS News appear to show the zip ties and bruised wrists of Anabel Romero's 14-year-old daughter SueHey, a U.S. citizen who was tending to her 6- and 8-year-old siblings when the agents descended on the crowd in military-style gear and herded them into a confined area."

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE: "I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

Vermont US Representative Becca Balint being interviewed by Drop Site News shortly after reviewing more, unreleased Epstein files saying "They're all a bunch of sick fucks"

Jaime Raskin says Donald Trump is in the unredacted Epstein files over a million times. Somehow, it’s always worse than we think.

The Trump administration is deporting a Christian minister back to the country that tortured him, which seems like the kind of thing the Religious Right would care about if a dirty Democrat were doing it.

MAGAZINER: Is spraying pepper spray directly into someone's face when they're already pinned to the ground proper procedure? SCOTT: I can't comment because you're only showing one piece and that subject is clearly not compliant MAGAZINER: He was already pinned down

TO RECAP: - The president will grant the most notorious living sex trafficker on the planet clemency, if she testifies that he’s innocent - They don’t want you to believe the thousands of women who were victims of Epstein - But they do expect you to believe ONE woman, Ghislaine Maxwell

As Donald Trump threatens us over the Gordie Howe Bridge (which we paid for) we learn that the Canadian government has quietly added to the number of F-35s its purchasing. Now it is time to buy from allies instead of enemies. www.youtube.com/watch?v=McS4...

BREAKING Canadian pairs team Deanna Stellato-Dudek and Maxime Deschamps are coming to the Olympics. They leave Canada tomorrow. Their Olympic dream was in doubt after Deanna hit her head in a training accident. But she has been medically cleared to compete at the Winter Games.

Max Naumov with a spellbinding performance here at the Olympics. Both of his parents were killed in that tragic plane crash about a year ago. His dad told him to be resilient in one of their final conversations. And here he is. Holding a photo of them after his skate. My goodness.

NEW: Critics are questioning the Ford government’s decision to pour more public money into an advertising blitz after the province debuted its latest commercial during the Super Bowl. #OnPoli globalnews.ca/news/1165974...

🧵📺: The Ford government's new commercial debuted during Canadian broadcasts of the Super Bowl. Ahead of last year's snap election, the government spent more on advertising than any other administration in Ontario's history. #OnPoli

SILVER FOR CANADA 🇨🇦 The Canadians win mixed relay short track Olympic silver. It’s Canada’s first silver medal at the Olympics thanks to the brilliant performance by Courtney Sarault, Kim Boutin, Felix Roussel and William Dandjinou.
