Toronto: not an igloo in sight

Population (GTA): 6.4M, 4th largest city in N.A.

Ranked one of the safest cities in N.A. even though it is considered the most multi-cultural city in the world where 160 different languages are spoken.

Tolerance is our superpower.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

"The shutdown is the symptom. The disease is cowardice — and worse … laziness."

The cost of Cowardice

"The irreversible gravity of killing, coupled with the lack of a substantive legal justification, is bringing into sharper view a structural weakness of law as a check on the American presidency."

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.

Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.

These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.

This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.

Every American should reject it.

“If you’re an ICE agent and you do these things,” Pritzker continued, “we think you ought to be held accountable … literally grabbing people, tackling them when they’re US citizens and they’ve done zero wrong.” It’s good to see this message reaching Fox’s brainwashed audience."

This is located in the Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago, close to Fullerton and Sheffield. It's a densely populated area near DePaul University. I'm pleased to see the community standing up against these despicable individuals.
