Zohran Mamdani, Graham Platner, James Talarico. These guys should be getting the full throated endorsements from Dem leadership.

Mamdani wants to make America's biggest city affordable, Platner wants to unmask ICE and hold them accountable, and Talarico wants a national conversation on being

What, is Poilievre ghostwriting for the National Post?
Shame on you National Post. Justin Trudeau is a private citizen now, & he should be afforded those ‘freedoms’ you all are always screeching about.

Thank Stephen Harper for facilitating American ownership of Canadian media #NeverConservative

Today the state parliament of Victoria makes history be beginning debate on Treaty legislation.

This wouldn’t be happening without Victorian Labor and progressive parties supporting the process.

Which is why I hope Labor is return to government, minority of majority, at next year’s state election.

The UK Government is set to cave in to Trump’s demands for higher drug prices - effectively signing a giant cheque to Big Pharma.
Today we & @justtreatment.org handed in 250,000 signatures to the Department of Health telling ministers to hold the line.

just a reminder that if Labour were competent they would be thrashing National in every poll; the fact they’re neck-and-neck with Nats with these widely hated destructive fools in power is an indictment; Chris Hipkins should step down and give it to someone who shows an interest in doing things

Rishi Sunak is as rich as the King. But in 2022, he paid the same tax rate as *a nurse*.

Our tax system is broken.

Right now, multimillionaires like Sunak hoard wealth, while 1/3 kids grow up in poverty. Enough.

We're forcing a reckoning.

When you think of how Luxon spent years boasting of how he "managed an airline", then see how he really did it, you might want to take a seat. Interesting how none of it made it to the media. Also Erica Stanford joins Luxon in showing what gaslighting looks like #nzpol

substack.com/it%E2%80%99s quite simple, Farage is a traitor, a Russian asset. Reform are puppets for Putin. How do people not understand this! Why do our complicit media including the BBC? Totally ignore it @martindavies631844/note/c-166101158?r=n7914&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action
