Also, the fact is that for decades the great political attraction of the US was a physical and intellectual market economy producing music, popular clothing, literature, and so on. Jazz, jeans, Kerouac, & Sinatra are all gone. All that is left is the threat of violence.

The fundament of Trump’s foreign policy has always been the assumption that the U.S. is so powerful it can force basically anything on anyone — the old elite is just too shy & ethical to use it. His presidency is in part a journey of discovery: of the limits of U.S. power.

You aren't calling anything loser. Just pissing BC off. We aren't allowing it, and that includes our new Premier. We are done being nice about it too, as you losers can't get it. The Hecate Strait is too dangerous. Fuck off.

I am a proud and loyal Democrat, and have voted Democrat all my life, but because I hate Muslims SO much, I'm going to ignore every principle I've spent my career giving lip service to and throw America under the bus. I urge my fellow sociopathic racists to do the same.

I am a proud and loyal Democrat. I served in President Clinton’s National Security Council and worked for Madeleine Albright at the State Department. I ran for Congress as a Democrat, have voted Democratic all my life, and expect to continue doing so. But I would never vote for Abdul El-Sayed. In my judgment, he does not represent the values of our party or our nation. I urge my fellow patriotic Democrats in Michigan to leave the Senate line blank or vote for Republican Mike Rogers. This is an exceptional case, and I do not make this recommendation lightly. We can support Democratic majorities nationally while refusing to support a candidate who violates our core values. Loyalty to our party should strengthen our principles, never require us to abandon them.

STOP THE CAA For years, the Campaign Against Antisemitism has abused British courts, launching private prosecutions against anti-Zionists, including me. I remain on bail pending a forthcoming trial. Help me to end the CAA's lawfare. Donate here: fightingfund.org/stopthecaa

Police do not prevent crime; they respond to it. Crime is prevented by higher wages, guaranteed health care, food security, high-quality child care, housing, good schools, and addiction treatment.

As we’re doing nuclear threat discourse again: just remember, Israel has the world’s largest per capita nuclear stockpile, has never signed a non-proliferation treaty, has never been inspected by IAEA — and their nukes are controlled by a government committing genocide.

That being the case: - the workers should immediately occupy the plant and all offices to protect against asset stripping, theft of intellectual property, destruction of orders, and - Parliament within 30 days should pass legislation nationalizing the corporate entity.

Stelco is efficient and can make steel cheaper than it’s US competitors, so its competitor purchased it and is trying to shut it down.

Very, very pleased to learn that @MarkJCarney's Canada voted "In Favour" of the "“Necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial embargo imposed by the United States of America against Cuba”. Kudos to Carney for not--as he usually does--caving to @realDonaldTrump. Some countries did cave to the US and abstained.

Why spend European taxpayers' money on Ukraine's defense when we can make Russia pay for its own war of aggression by sending Russia's frozen assets to Kyiv?

Conservative heckling in Parliament severely undercuts the central core of democracy. And I suppose that is what Maple Maga wants.

Immediately occupy all Stelco property, offices, and plants in Canada to protect against any asset stripping, order terminations, etc Nationalize the corporate entity within 30 days. #cdnpoli

@CoopToryOct 27
He intends to sell Stelco “in a year or so,” once he “makes some money.” He intends to strip it of assets and value and then offload the rump—true private equity style. Canada would have to bail out that rump or entirely lose domestic steel production. Nationalise Stelco now.

After 8 years of cutting funding to necessary services and wasting billions on gifts to PC party members and supporters, Ford is NOW telling us he is making more cuts to funding of services. Ontario is no longer our province. It is now Doug Ford's slush fund.

Thousands of Israelis return to Israel to vote. But Palestinians who were born there can’t return. Such are elections in a democratic apartheid state.

Jews also believe that Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and parts of Iraq, Egypt and Saudi Arabia are 'jewish land' promised to them by God. That's over 60 million natives they want to displace and 'send to Europe'. Gaza is the front line of defence. For Arabs and the West.

Israel should "conquer" all of Gaza and send the refugees to France, Britain, and other European countries, Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir tells the Jerusalem Post in Hebrew. Gaza is "Jewish territory," he insists.

Hamilton workers are facing uncertainty, but they are not facing it alone. Marty Warren, President of the Steelworkers, and I met today to discuss the Stelco layoffs, and we share one message: we stand with workers, and we will fight for their jobs and their future.
