He is going to invoke the insurrection act. It’s just a matter of when. So what everyone sane needs to do is game out strategies for when he does. It has to be all levels, all hands on deck.

Because that’s false. They’re not “becoming the Cons”. Is Carney more Conservative than I’d like? Yes. But that is a million miles away from being a fascist seeking to dismantle Canada’s entire system. Which is what the CPC project 2025 Maple MAGA edition intends to do. It’s nonsense to equate the 2

Except, the Trump regime Nazis WANT THAT TO HAPPEN. Dementia Don and his band of fascists are looking for the first excuse to invoke the insurrection act, declare martial law and potentially even suspend elections.

I worry about this.

I want there to be a place for genuine disagreement; I hate that in this moment of rising global fascism, I don't feel that it's safe to criticize Carney very much. People don't change their votes to NDP or Green, they go towards PP.

And PP's radical. And underqualified, imo.

Meanwhile the right AND the left are busily spreading daily anti-Carney propaganda, instead of standing together to make sure Canada isn’t next on an invasion list from the Putin allied Trump regime.

This is a perilous time. The MOST important thing right now to stop anti-democracy forces from coming to power. Poilievre is a crypto fascist. He’s NOT a Conservative of yore. In 🇺🇸, it wasn’t liberals who stayed home & refused to vote Kamala or Hillary. But the self-righteous left did & helped Trump

Who could have seen it? I mean the right is only creating worship level saint porn about this racist lying grifter, because of course they are. Never let a good Reichstag fire go to waste.

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

If ACA tax credits expire, she can’t afford it.

Her vision—her life—is on the line.

This is what GOP “shutdown politics” looks like.

What if the corrupt GOP syndicate has no intentions of recalling the House? What if they’re intending to shut down the House until the midterms?

Trumpism will not simply end in 3 years. Why are we doing so little? Are we just going to stand in passive witness to the degradation of our democracy?

Wait - so there was a peace deal in place under Biden, but Netanyahu met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago (tinyurl.com/4fn64wah) and scuttled it to give them both a political win?
