Oh, the 2025 John Lewis Christmas advertisement is out, and as the mother of a brown-haired teenage boy this one just hit me straight in the heart.

Trump still has not followed a court order to release SNAP funds for millions of people.

Meanwhile, he hosted a "Great Gatsby" themed party at Mar-a-Lago this weekend.

And he posted seven times about renovating a White House bathroom with marble and gold.

Priorities.

With all these extrajudicial boat murders, we have a president who is not only an adjudicated rapist, but also an unapprehended serial killer.

I continue to wonder when Americans will decide enough is enough. As Frederick Douglass reminds us:

“The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.”

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums.

He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up.

How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

In case you need a summary of what’s happening, Republicans are unnecessarily making 40 million people go hungry to blackmail Democrats into making your grandma’s health insurance premiums double.

Obama’s point is simple: the bigger the show, the bigger the mess they’re trying to hide. When leaders act like gods flying above us, it’s usually because they’re failing to fix things down here.

"it is striking how many of the key players we have looked into — the people who have gone out of their way to put up hundreds of flags — seem anything but ordinary."

Perhaps a better question would be who would, should or could replace the Tory leader? Kemi Badenoch behaves like a petulant child most of the time.

What a load of nonsense. It is just the (rightwing) media out for blood because it believes it sells papers. Whether you like Keir Starmer or not, at least he is a grown up who behaves himself both at home and abroad. It is rather refreshing actually.

Obama: As for the president, he has been focused on critical issues like paving over the rose garden so folks don't get mud on their shoes and gold plating the Oval Office and building a ballroom… If you can't visit a doctor, don't worry. He will save you a dance.

Adelita Grijalva now holds the record for longest delay between winng a special Congressional election and being sworn into office.

Why the delay from Mike Johnson?

Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

America has been warned by China, you may get the first shot off, but you won't get a second. As we gear up for War in Venezuela for their oil, there are countries like China, who aren't just going to let Dump bomb fishing boats in their waters

Something unexpected happened at the @meidascanada.ca town hall in Victoria.
A group of young Afghan girls who escaped the Taliban showed up and asked to speak. They told their story of the fight for education and the need for Canada to help.
We will be sharing their story.
