Airbnb is such a parasite around here. Small companies are buying houses just to rent them, and what gets marketed as a way to make "a little extra money" for ordinary people is just a major cash grab for the rich. Besides, who can afford to own a house anymore?

Eh? Carney who won on his “Elbows-up” attitude is now trying to create Trump-style borders and surveillance with his Strong Borders Act. Demand he respect our rights and treat people with care and dignity. Withdraw Bill C-2! #stopbillC2 act.gp/40oxP2E

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

Over 90% of DC residents voted against Trump. Their blatant show of military force is a threat to the freedom of all Americans who oppose them. The regime wants the people to be afraid of their government—because the regime is afraid of the people.

what donald trump wants more than anything is video of american soldiers gunning down american citizens

Saying it again: "We will dedicate the rest of our lives to making sure Big Balls goes to prison for all his crimes, for the people he killed as he broke US law." There is sufficient public information now to prosecute and imprison the DOGE kids. It is vital we do so

So Donald Trump is going to send the national guard to Washington DC today when the people of DC don’t need them, after refusing to deploy them on January 6, when the people of Washington DC did.

Not a huge Derek Thompson fan but he's straightforwardly correct here. Financial institutions own a tiny percentage of US homes and generally rent them out rather than keeping them vacant. Preventing BlackRock from buying housing wouldn't do much to help affordability. www.gao.gov/assets/gao-2...

Canada will formally recognize the State of Palestine during the United Nations General Assembly this September, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced. Calls for a two state solution, decries Israeli settlers and Hamas. #cdnpoli

It's way, way past time for this. I'm proud to see Carney standing up for human rights finally.

It's. The. Guns.

Just because the EU got scammed by the most obvious and con-man in history doesn't mean that Canada has to as well. Call your MPs and demand Canada concede nothing! The US needs Canada more than we need them.

It looks like Harvard is not up to the task of leading the defense of academic freedom and democracy in the United States. It was a big ask, to be sure, and sadly, it appears Harvard is not big enough. History will not look kindly on us.

This is what Harvard is gonna do with all your resistance donations, congrats

Bill C-2 lets Canadian cops demand users' info without a warrant—and it paves the way for that info to go to U.S. government agencies.

OTTAWA – Liberal members of Parliament are publicly calling on the Canadian government to follow France’s lead in recognizing Palestine as a state.

Almost went to Columbia for law school. You couldn't pay me to go now. In a single year, the board of trustees has, through constant capitulation, turned one of the top schools in into a punchline.

Columbia University has handed over its undergraduate admissions process to Donald Trump and his MAGA allies, who will now decide at their sole discretion whether the university has admitted enough white people. It's no longer an independent institution.

NY Times declares victory for Trump on Monday morning and then Monday happened

Sitting just outside the US looking back in, this is the sort of glaring red flag that really stands out. Most americans have lost all sense of perspective and at this point.

Literally what the f*ck did people think would happen?

Reddit’s r/Conservative is turning on Trump over Epstein. “The only bad actors I see in this are the ones in the White House”. “This will make me turn my back on Trump”. “Maybe the democrats are right. We ARE in the oligarchy”. Trump’s finally lost control of the narrative—keep pushing on this!

"I don't understand your current attitude" don't you though? deep down? you really can't put these two pieces together even when the rest of the puzzle is solved?

there are so many people still using twitter including people i generally like and respect and atp i'm just wondering what it's going to take for them to finally leave. what are you waiting for? the guy made his AI into MechaHitler and his users made it sexually harass the CEO until she quit

At this point I think Bluesky is used as a symbol for MSM to project its frustrations with Twitter/X and other social media onto. They don’t actually spend time here so it’s easier to vilify without having to criticize one’s own online behavior

I am a cynical dickhead but i actually have a much higher view of the american public than our centrist consultants and pundits do and "people won't love masked armed agents of the state violently kidnapping harmless people once they see it" wasn’t a hard call.

Weird headline, dude. Meanwhile Canada is on fire?

If you're new around here: The actions taken by the Trump administration against FEMA have made it impossible for FEMA to effectively respond to any large disaster. This is what we have been warning about for the past six months. I'll drop some links if you need to catch up. It's alot.

This is a concentration camp, and people need to stop using cutesy names for it and call it what it is. This is a campaign of extermination.

People in Alligator Auschwitz describe the inhumane conditions in the concentration camp—insufficient water, scarce and unsanitary food, lack of medicine, denial of religious rights, etc. “They're not respecting our human rights. We're human beings—we're not dogs. We're like rats in an experiment."

Puerto Rico is on the verge of banning gender affirming care to to age 21, which would be the highest age for a ban in the United States. One thing to note, the drinking age in Puerto Rico is 18. So you can drink yourself to death but can't get hormones. glaad.org/anti-transge...

Dems: "We need to find bipartisan solutions and work together." Never Trump Republicans: ***puts on Che Guevara shirt*** "we need to put the people doing this into camps."

Oh, the UK under Streeting and Starmer is trying to turn over the NHS to the information warfare megacorp that runs IDF surveillance and Trump's ICE operations. What could possibly go wrong?

This should be at best a lukewarm take but when a major leftist org puts all of their social media organizing on a platform that is literally choking Memphis to death while it generates money for an explicit white nationalist movement, i do have to sort of question their analysis.

OMG YOU HAVE ONE JOB, NYT, ONE FUCKING JOB

CBP has already hassled us about being on the sidewalk. Massive federal presence here this morning

Jaw-dropping photos coming out of Los Angeles today.

Update on Seth Cotlar's nice thread on Chris Rufo, who the NYT now defers to. Rufo's start as an alt-right activist was even earlier: he was tapped by 2017. His "journalism" since then is manufactured outrage. Here's a copy-edited version his bio - note his tie to Peter Thiel & Russ Vought. 1/

Climate advocates widely supported #MarkCarney in the last election because of a shared understanding that #Poilievre would be a disaster. @mark-carney.bsky.social is officially that disaster anyways. Increasingly there is no political solution for a climate-smart future in Canada. SHAME. #cdnpoli

It seems like this has eluded people: the reporter responsible for the racist attack on Zohran Mamdani is a Jesse Singal acolyte who has been trying to cash in on the anti-trans moral panic. He's been pitching to the NYT for years but up until this the only rag who would publish him was the NY Sun

Oh so Grok is just making studies up now too..
