Convoy crowd now anonymously threatening CFIA employee families. Not just local+ businesses anymore.

“The biggest problem is that some of our (union) members are then having their partners tracked down, their children tracked down. It’s very, very concerning.”

Poilievre is at it again, demanding more legal protections for Canadians defending their home. It's so misleading, under the Criminal Code of Canada, we have the right to protect ourselves as long as you use reasonable force. Fear mongering again, implying you can't protect yourself.

NO. It's fundamentally inappropriate for the @dscc.bsky.social to form a fundraising committee with Janet Mills. What happened to staying OUT of the primaries?

Hey Trump. The tides are changing. The world media stood up. Hegseth thought Reuters would sign that? What a joke. Even Fox wouldn’t sign it. Why would they? News is what they do. You’d have to be “Hegseth” stupid to think otherwise. Even MTG is leaving you. Jack Smith is speaking up. Look out Trump

How soon we forget.

Of the 220 hostages that survived,
all but 20 were released while Biden
was in office.

Trump got 20 hostages released.

Timeline of Hostage Releases During Biden's
Presidency:
• Late 2023: The first significant batch of around 105 hostages, mostly civilians, women, and children, was released during a ceasefire in November 2023. wikipedia
• 2024 to early 2025: Additional smaller batches, including some foreign nationals and elderly, were released intermittently through negotiations, humanitarian efforts, and Israeli military rescues.
the-independent +1
• January 2025: A ceasefire agreement facilitated the release of approximately 30 more hostages, mainly women and civilians. the-independent
• Throughout 2024-2025: Various humanitarian releases continued, often involving exchanges for Palestinian prisoners or other diplomatic negotiations, summing to about 135 hostages.

This we now know anyway: shooting chemical weapons at peaceful protesters, even 'in uniform', 'unmasked' clergy is ok for ICE.

So we've got that going for us...

Lying little Nazi Stephen Miller...

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social · 3h

Remember when Stephen Miller claimed the Chicago apartment raid was on a building “filled with Tren de Aragua terrorists”?

Well, DHS has now dropped the number of alleged TdA members arrested in the building from 2 to 1.

Just one "verified" Tren de Aragua member and one U.S. citizen with an active warrant were among the 37, DHS said, without saying how it had verified that gang affiliation. Others taken that day, the agency said, were "illegal aliens."

How Russia laundered a lie about Ukraine through the U.S. Congress.

The Zelensky corruption hoax spreads from a fringe Turkish website to Russian sites to MSN to a member of the U.S. Congress — and then, back to Russian media.
