#Israel’s daily razing of #Gaza & slaughter of starving civilians,women, children,men,old & young knows no end. It is a horror show, so gruesome & grotesque it is hard to fathom. The point is clear: To cleanse the territory of #Palestinians; To erase their memory & rebuild.

“It’s a betrayal of Liberal voters, undermines the core theme of our campaign, and is an utter disgrace for a self-respecting democracy facing the rise of fascism next door,” thetyee.ca/Opinion/2025...

Joe Rogan is spreading climate misinformation on one of the country’s most popular podcasts, scientists say—and he’s not the only one.

📻😍 Omg, this is absolutely fabulous. Please listen! 👏 The world today & the role Canada is playing. 🇨🇦✨ @caradrianh.bsky.social @rachelgilmore.bsky.social I’d love to hear more from voices like hers. Maybe even pick an angle for a deep-dive interview? 🎙️ #cdnpoli #canada #geopolitics

As Pogo once said, “we have met the enemy, & it is us”. We voters & the media have jumped on any hint of independent thought or initiative amongst cabinet ministers or gov’t members, to the extent where dictatorial message discipline is the only way for governments to function & survive. #cdnpoli

Democracy should happen outside elections and government buildings. #CdnPoli

To @acoyne.bsky.social Canadian MPs have become “nobodies” & cabinet ministers are “nobodies w/ a car & driver.” All power lies w/ the Prime Minister & the PMO. Our conversation about “the crisis of Canadian democracy” on my @ricochetmedia.bsky.social podcast podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/i...

LISTEN: @acoyne.bsky.social thinks Canada’s parliament is becoming increasingly irrelevant and that the power that has become concentrated in the Prime Minister and his office needs to be returned to MPs. He joins me on my @ricochetmedia.bsky.social podcast podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/i...

A thread: More than a million Sudanese are involved in artisinal mining in large open-air mining zones across 12 of Sudan’s 18 states working under extremely dangerous conditions. For the UAE, the profit margins from this gold have risen exponentially since the war began. (1/3)

From Nov.2024: #Israel’s systematic erasure of journalism in #Palestine is an assault on press freedom everywhere Palestinians have a right to free and independent information — and they deserve to have journalists tell their stories ricochet.media/internationa...

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has ordered the secretary of the Navy to rename the oiler ship USNS Harvey Milk, according to a defense official. The ship was named after the gay rights activist and Navy veteran, who was made to resign from the force because of his sexual orientation.

🚨 ATTN: Journalists crossing through a U.S. border 🚨 Alongside @eff.org, we now have an extensive guide on preparing your devices for travel through a U.S. border, including a digital security checklist and additional resources. Read, bookmark and share:

Again:Journalists are not stenographers. We are to get information, report and verify the facts, and then report the reality not the talking point. What Trump is doing in DC and threatening in cities is NOT a crime crack down because he says it is. Don’t regurgitate. Report the truth not propaganda.

Adrian Harewood asking about collegiality and cooperation on the Hill. I think a lot of current Conservatives and New Democrats would be shocked to learn that Jack Layton and Stephen Harper used to meet and speak to each other – and even get things done.

Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.

I am sounding the alarm on the real crisis we face today. Donald Trump’s overreach is what our founders warned against – it is unprecedented, unwarranted, and un-American. There’s no emergency here that calls for military intervention.

We need to get the language right. #Israel's “deadly strike" on Al Nasser Hospital in #Gaza which killed 20 people including journalists from Reuters, AP, NBC, Al Jazeera & rescue workers is an act of terror-A Terrorist Attack. Attacking hospitals & killing civilians is a war crime.
