Every Canadian deserves to be free from violence. This is not just a moral imperative — it is key to building a safer and more equitable Canada for everyone.

Sure it’s interesting to think about Trump knowing that so many people around him know he’s a “total piece of sh*t”… altho a malignant narcissist like him likely loves that people who hate him still suck up to him.

But what kinds of pieces of sh*t knowingly help a piece of sh*t destroy the country?

Did you know the avg. cost of a funeral in Canada has doubled in the last 27 years, and the Canada Pension Plan Death Benefit has been frozen the entire time?

Now that MTG is feeling all soft, and free, and easy, it might be a good time to ask her why before even being sworn-in she was one of the 10 members of the House who met with Trump in December 2020 to discuss “Stop the Steal” plans, and the details of the convo….

President Zelenskyy came to the White House, looking for help from his longstanding ally.

He was ambushed, humiliated and berated for not being grateful enough.

Prince Bone Saw bin 9/11 came to the White House, for the first time since he ordered the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.

He was revered.

A new sports stat aims to square an emotive circle. The MLB postseason matters more than the regular season, but doesn't override it, so here is how to show each team's record by combining the two.

Great thread from my friend. Sporrrts!
1. One reason to like football is the end of this play. Washington takes two more steps at the defensive back and then says no, I'm good. In hockey the players are shitheads for three solid minutes after this hit.

2. Kevin Harlan. Kevin Harlan is a wonderful football commentator.
DARNELL WASHINGTON IS A UNIT!

Private equity firm Sycamore Partners bought Walgreens.

Now Walgreens has stopped giving most workers paid vacation on Thanksgiving, Christmas and other major holidays.

Private equity takeovers are a disaster for workers, and customers.

Alfie Jones, of Middlesborough and Bristol, England, is eligible to play for Canada in the FIFA World Cup due to having a Canadian grandmother. I couldn't help myself after reading that quote...

the first NFL game in Berlin, Germany was tied 25-25 with 25 seconds left in the fourth quarter.

This reminds us Project 2025 was originally written in German.
