Vaughan Mayor Steven Del Duca who eliminated speed cameras recently, now wants CCTV cameras that will be equipped with automated license plate recognition as "residents are fed up with “scumbag” criminals."

Residents also fed up with drivers killing people. 'Scumbags' speeding, braking the law.

I do hope that the American People realize that the people coming to the rallies on Saturday are going because they love this country too much to let Trump destroy our culture, government and constitution. This is a peaceful way to tell the world, No dictator, No Trump, he isn’t America.

This is Rosie. She doesn't have a bad angle, but prefers this one because it makes her look tall. 12/10 (IG: whippyrosie)

a gray whippet puppy with white on her paws, tummy, and snoot and blue eyes sits in a living room with a gray couch behind her. she's giving us an innocent expression and the teensiest hint of a blep with her pink tongue. we're looking up at her from a low angle, so it seems as if she's towering over us.

MAGA wants you to believe kids and 79 year old white shop owners in Chicago are Antifa and helping Mexican drug cartels and deserve to be assaulted and zip tied.

Thankfully a majority of Americans aren't psychopaths.

Anna Paulina Luna is Putin's Representative in the U.S. Congress now as Dana Rohrabacher was in 2014-15, right after Russia invaded Ukraine.

The russian terrorist state can always find Americans at the highest level to betray their country. Useful Idiots are a dime a dozen.

Emerging from the darkness of this era will require us to acknowledge that the previous status quo, including many institutions that may have served us well in another era, have been failing for my entire lifetime.

This Supreme Court case in Louisiana is about one thing, and one thing only: reinstituting Jim Crow by way of ensuring that Black Americans are taxed without receiving representation in Congress.

Everything else is noise and bluster.

This stolen Supreme Court is going to send us back to the 1860s.

$2.9bln in 2009 and then $15bln for the EV battery plant(unsure how much has been paid out on that) Maybe we should nationalize the plant and start building Project Arrow vehicles there, it seems we've paid for it.

Trump’s power depends on maintaining the illusion that he’s all-powerful, and that Americans adore him.

But that illusion is harder to maintain if millions of people are in the streets protesting.

This is why Republicans are trying to discredit No Kings Day rallies before they've even happened.

Trump regime forces brutally beat Americans in the streets of Chicago for witnessing their neighbours be kidnapped and disappeared in broad daylight. Concerned citizens stood up for themselves as the regime continues to expand its fascist terror campaign.
