We’ve watched our friends to the south face attacks on truth, rights, and basic democratic norms. Let it be clear, Canadians DO NOT stand by while democracy is pushed around!
We stand in Solidarity because Democracy isn’t just an American ideal. It’s a shared one. And we protect it together!

Sick leave
Paid holidays
No child labor
Safer working conditions
Health care and retirement benefits

Does Trump and his cronies want to be Ultimate Boyars of Ukraine?
In return for selling out Ukraine will they become the new "Golden Horde" -- controlling the fertile steppe of Ukraine? Granted land and subjects by the Emperor of Russia?
Doesn't it seem like the "pee pee" tapes were real?

@markhertling.bsky.social & @captmarkkelly.bsky.social - hearing your perspectives on MSNOW, then reading Gen. Hertling's post on the Bulwark seems like a weakened echo of nostalgic leadership in a barren canyon of relativistic morality and ethics.

Retired 4-Star Navy Admiral and Navy Seal Officer William McRaven said this about Trump.
“Through your actions, you have embarrassed us in the eyes of our children, humiliated us on the world stage; and, worst of all, divided us as a nation.”
Happy Veterans Day to this outstanding Veteran!

Yes this. I am starting to wonder exactly how the military chips will fall now. 6 years ago there was no question, we had an American military.
MAGA has brought doubt and corruption into every institution respected by the people.
Can we still trust the military to defend the Constitution ?

USDA, acting like directed economy czars, prohibit retailers from giving discounts to SNAP recipients paying cash for groceries? WTF?

They are already ignoring vast tracts of the Bill of Rights -- it's going to get worse.
Once ICE and the DEA come for your guns, whatcha gonna do?
America is the Bill of Rights - without it - we're just like Venezuela, Hungary, Russia, or China.

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

I am surprised that they didn't grab the rebar, melt it down, and make a statue of some Republican iron-man or another.
Too, they didn't merchandize it by selling chunks of concrete?
Oh wait .. that would convey the idea that they think it has value.

I now live in a country where leaders demand loyalty but give none,
where leaders demand ethics and honor from their enemies, but practice none themselves,
where lies are pushed to truths and truths to lies,
where innocents are punished and guilty are given the keys to the prison.

Destroying a part of the whitehouse to build a monument to arrogance and egotism... one which we the people will destroy with glee once he is gone.
it hurts me that he does this without even a vote in congress to approve it or a public request for comment on the idea...

Since the GOP are colluding and coordinating across the country to make our vote irrelevant, the only peaceful thing they understand now are dollar$.
