It is brutally cold out there. If you or anyone you know needs access to a warm place, call 311. We can arrange transportation and someone will direct you to the right place to go.

It occurred to me last night that maybe the reason Conservatives don't like social programs supporting kids, like school breakfast or dental care, is because hungry kids with cavities grow up to be angry adults and that's the entire Conservative base.

Reminder that "firing on the shipwrecked" is literally THE example used in the DoD War Manual of "a clearly illegal order"
“Leavitt told reporters at the White House press briefing that Hegseth authorized Adm. Frank Bradley to carry out the second strike, which reportedly killed two people who were hanging onto the burning vessel after an initial strike.” Wow. 12/1/25 thehill.com/homenews/562...

Just in case you're wondering , this is considerably worse than what Trump did you get impeached the first time.
At some point in the future, Witkoff should be prosecuted for this.

It really has been interesting the last while to see Doug Ford's outbursts. The true Ford. From "get a job" to "audit orgs that might support left wing causes". The authoritarian belligerent bully that had no staff to muzzle him in City Hall days is still there. Does Ontario see? Do they care?

But is anyone going to hold Doug Ford accountable for the dismantling of our system? Of course not. All healthcare blame is to be directed to the federal government, because shut up.
