Do you think Trump would bomb California to give himself the ‘false flag’ he so desperately wants — to distract from The Epstein Files and rig the Midterms?

Well, do you?!

U.S. court allows state bans on gender-affirming care for adults in unprecedented ruling While bans on trans youth’s care have been numerous in recent years, this is the first to restrict care for transgender adults.

NEWS: It was never about the children.

Transgender adults now face care restrictions after the ruling of the federal appeals court in Richmond, Virginia.

What the hell is up with this #CPC ploy? Sending Vichy backstabbers WHO HAVE NO NEGOTIATING ROLE, appointing themselves “negotiators” in order to sabotage 🇨🇦’s gov’t, when Carney has been furiously negotiating with countries around the world. Going to Texas? What fuckery are they planning? #cdnpoli

Efficiencies won't solve hospital financial crisis, Ontario Hospital Association says There's a billion-dollar structural deficit that is growing rapidly, said Anthony Dale, CEO of the Ontario Hospital Association.

The only efficiencies that will fix our hospitals is if Ford is more efficient in giving hospitals the health care money he’s sitting on:

“Ontario, the most populous province in Canada, spends the least per capita on acute care, hospital beds and staff.”

Watch this clip.

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.

Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off.

The 25th is never happening.

Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year.

Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants.

They are good for society and the economy.

Canadians buy made-in-Canada goods to support their local businesses and local economies.

We’re doing the same, at scale, with the Buy Canadian Policy — by building housing, infrastructure, and defence projects with Canadian materials, Canadian technology, and Canadian workers.

Was feeling discouraged about not making much progress in the fight to shift Covid policy 6 yrs in, but then a
family member called to say they put a HEPA filter in their office because of me

They were tired of being sick & knew there had to be a better way.

🇺🇸 knows 🇨🇦 is far more admired, respected and genuinely liked across the planet. We’re nice. We’re polite. And we’re bigger. And we’re better in every meaningful metric.

We have a PM coming on like gangbusters. And we set the standard for Western democracies and hoo boy it aggravates them.

Trump held rallies for Kelly Loeffler vs. Raphael Warnock and David Perdue vs. Jon Ossoff. After weeks of screaming the elections were stolen and rigged, Republican turnout dropped by 752,000.

Last night he went to Kentucky to endorse Ed Gallrein against Thomas Massie. Massie’s numbers went up.

When GPS lies at sea: How electronic warfare is threatening ships and their crews In addition to watching out for missile and drone attacks, mariners in conflict zones need to be on guard for GPS spoofing and other cyberattacks. The stakes are high and mariners are ill-prepared.

Beyond the immediate devastation of the war in Iran, the conflict has illuminated a quieter and rapidly growing danger: the vulnerability of ships, and the people who operate them, to disruption of their navigation systems.

No pay wall.

This piece of Wonder Bread cancelled grants that he felt were inappropriate because they were related to DEI, including one for underserved groups in the military.

He admits he has no experience or training in any form of peer review and that he doesn’t give a shit about people losing their jobs.
