Proud Canadian. Dog servant. Current mood: concerned and pissed I’m sure you’re a lovely person, but don’t send me a chat message. It’s not you, it’s me. Anti-Trump? Let me count the ways.

Who is next to be put to death by the US President? What perverse level of unchecked power this man has.

Christine 🇨🇦 @christineupnorth.bsky.social · 1h

Right? Have all these deaths been confirmed with names from loved ones? Is it even true? I haven’t seen any confirmation from an alternate source and the US government is unreliable.

Has anyone heard word one about the identities of the men blown up on these Venezuelan boats?

Christine 🇨🇦 @christineupnorth.bsky.social · 2h

Last time I checked it’s murder to blow up a boat full of people without immediate threat of them causing imminent grevions bodily harm or death to someone. Drug boats could be interdicted by coastguard if it was about law enforcement.

Currently on a flight to Japan watching a Pentagon Assistant Press Secretary (Riley Podleski) work on a document in the open on her laptop. She spent the last hour copy and pasting headlines from articles critical of the Administration’s hostility toward the 1st amendment.

Imagine if a woman president went off about every picture of herself she didn’t like. “Hysterical.” “Emotional.” “PMSing.” “Petty bitch.”

Phone your friends, family and neighbours. Car pool. Pack some snacks and most of all be the inspiration for others to show up

Authoritarianism is a cancer. And it's growing, metastasizing. In America. Now.

How much is the bounty on an « illegal » that they would engage in this type of behaviour? How much did they sell their souls for?

Apparently, they don’t hand out a Nobel Peace Prize to those who negotiated a ceasefire they had sabotaged a year ago just to get elected.

News outlets broadly reject Pentagon rules before signing deadline

The Washington Post and other major news outlets have refused to sign the Defense Department’s restrictive new media policy, citing First Amendment concerns.

Never forget that when Bondi was appointed, Democracy Docket immediately called her out while The Washington Post gave her a thumbs up.

If you value independent, pro-democracy media that won't bow down or obey, support Democracy Docket today. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

He’s diverting attention AWAY from dismantling government by keeping ppl focussed on Epstein. It’s about installing authoritarian rule. Full stop.
Even if those files miraculously come out unaltered, his followers wont leave him. Think of all he’s done and said so far.
