Adelita Grijalva won her special election Sept 23rd.

Speaker Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear her in.

Why? She’s the deciding vote to discharge the Epstein petition.

She marched with the Democratic Women’s Caucus to demand she be allowed to govern.

Arizona AG also threatening a lawsuit.

Because there is NO LINE to cross.

ICE shot a pastor in the head.
They've taken children from their parents.
They've shot teargas near school children.

This is EXACTLY what the IDF does to Palestinians.
There is NO LINE for the Republicans.
This is what they want.

All I can say is @mark-carney.bsky.social’s “new government” better not be handing Stellantis any 🇨🇦 taxpayer dollars.

Normally a using organs of the wrong blood type causes the recipient's immune system to attack the organ, leading to failure.

Statement from the president of the Parliamentary Press Gallery, on Prime Minister Mark Carney’s trip to Egypt:

“It is unprecedented that Canadian media be entirely excluded from a Canadian prime minister’s foreign trip.”

Shamus Brown @shamusbrown1.bsky.social · 20h

I agree with the statement but would recommend something from a Press Gallery be proofread before posting. There shouldn’t be a typo in something from them. I’d be embarrassed.

Sorry Americans, whether you voted red or blue, the man currently sitting in that oval office represents YOUR country & his threatening OUR sovereignty has consequences. Suck it up & deal with that or better yet REMOVE HIM.

Funny how “A deal is a deal” when an 🇺🇸 firm doesn’t like the behaviour of 🇨🇦 or 🇨🇦 firms, but “suck it” is the response when the 🇺🇸s rewrite the rules or rip it up.

I have two words for US Steel -
piss off.

proudlycanadian.bsky.social @proudlycanadian.bsky.social · 3d

U.S. Steel said Algoma has not consented to arbitration in Pittsburgh. Instead, Algoma Steel told U.S. Steel it plans to seek relief in a Canadian court and will ask for a declaration finding that the contract is no longer binding.

Business as usual at Algoma Steel despite lawsuit

'These proceedings do not impact Algoma’s ongoing operations or strategic transition to electric arc furnace steelmaking,' a company official said

ICE spent $800K on vans with stingray tech that collects data from all nearby phones, even yours. These devices mimic cell towers to track locations and intercept communications. Oversight and transparency are needed now.
