Kids as young as 3 and 4 years old are being hauled into immigration court in Seattle and read their rights.
They’re being told they have the right to an attorney despite having no capacity to hire one or understand what that means.
As Rep Jayapal says, that’s not due process… it’s a farce.

The subtext in JD Vance asking for "patience" on the economy: When leaders stop talking about current conditions and jump straight to rosy forecasts, they’re signaling the present isn’t defensible. That’s your cue to scrutinize the numbers, not just the narrative.

Three babies in Kentucky have died of whooping cough.

This is RFK Jr’s legacy. A trail of dead kids who never had a chance.
They didn’t get to decide about vaccination. Adults chose for them & they paid with their life.

It would have been nice if someone asked Doug Ford to explain how he plans to order these charity audits given charities are overseen federally by Canada Revenue Agency
Ford says he will audit ‘left-wing radical groups’ opposed to government legislation | Globalnews.ca
Ford's warning came after members of the tenant advocacy group ACORN interrupted the legislature to protest a controversial omnibus bill that shortens some eviction timelines.

Canada should be focused on nation-building. Instead we are getting sucked into a needless pipeline war to appease Moe and Danielle Smith.
If the PM tries to kill the tanker ban without consulting BC premier Eby or First Nations he will be in for the fight of his life.
And he will lose.
