@RadioFreeTom In my opinion Trump support is like the US evangelical Christian movement they align themselves ideologically with the bigotry and hatred that reflects their worldview. Supporters are one/two issue people and of course in addition the stable of grifters who galvanize the support.

We could argue that Trump 1 was a one-off, a freak occurrence. But electing him *twice*? Raises reasonable questions about what kind of electorate would do that.

The drop in global perceptions of the US is 100% because of Donald Trump. Clear as day.

I remain bewildered by those - including people I know and like - who don't understand that you don't have to support Mamdani if you oppose Trump, and you don't have to support Trump if you oppose Mamdani.
You can just accept that both are bigots and support neither. Easy.

Neil Hajhassan is the Senior Renovator & Construction Consultant with Easy Home Renovation, a home design company featured in @TheTorontoSun
Neil Hajhassan is a vocal supporter of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah Khamenei, and the designated terrorist groups Hamas & Hezbollah where he is seen glorifying leaders Yahya Sinwar & Hassan Nasrallah.
Neil Hajhassan quotes Ana Kasparian’s antisemitic statement saying “Hey, bitch, the goyim are waking the fuck up” and considers Israel the “genocidal pedophilic Jewish regime.”
Neil Hajhassan has been seen at pro-terrorist protests in Toronto waving a sign of the designated terrorist group Houthi's spokesperson Yahya Saree calling him "the real OG."
Given Neil Hajhassan deals with the renovation of private homes & businesses, this is a Notice of Public Interest to both the Jewish & Iranian diaspora communities of Toronto & the surrounding area regarding this radical terrorist glorifier & the security risk he brings in having him in your home.

@wooknponub Good for you. I am 63 using a 5x5 variant MadCow -- it all about staying active and enjoying yourself.

@AlexpiersonAMP I would be surprised if that has not already happened.

George Carlin once said, “Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.”
What is a good example of that?

@TeckResources this one of yours. Not sure calling for death of Jews is likely in your employee handbook.

Yusuf Mahamed is the Vancouver based Manager of Technical Accounting & Reporting with @TeckResources, a public traded company on the NYSE & TSE under TECK. He is a registered CPA with @CPA_BC. Yusuf Mahamed openly calls for the murder of 10 million Israelis where he prays in Islam by stating “May Allah destroy Israel.” He also mocks the 6 million that died in the Holocaust by stating “probably believes Hitler gassed 200 million Jews” and believes the Jews did 9/11. Despite the surge in violence towards Jewish institutions within Canada, Yusuf Mahamed calls them all “false flag attacks” because his “source isn’t Zionist controlled media.” He also thinks “senior leaders” in Canada are “controlled by Zionists.” Yusuf Mahamed enjoys harassing the parents of servicemen in the US Army by stating his wishes for their children to be murdered at the hands of Iran. “May he get killed imminently” says one post while another reads “the whole world hopes your murderous genocidal evil sons die a painful death.” Although Teck Resources does a significant amount of business with the United States, Yusuf Mahamed believes the USA are “the biggest global terrorists and cause of all problems.” Yusuf Mahamed is also on record for stating he approves anti-gay laws and hopes “more countries adopted that” including Canada. Yusuf Mahamed came to Canada from South Africa in 2022 and mentioned applying for permanent residency in 2025. Why was he allowed in Canada with these beliefs & will @CitImmCanada be granting him the privilege of living their country? Most likely yes. This is a Notice of Public Interest to the Israeli community of Vancouver regarding this radical Islamist who calls for the murder of their people.

@AHousefather @SelinaMRobinson @kinsellawarren This announcement is an admission that Canada is not prepared to protect Jewish communities through meaningful enforcement of the law. Instead, the message seems to be: here is some funding to harden your facilities That is not real protection. In short prevention has failed!

Jewish Canadians, like all Canadians, have a right to be safe & feel safe in our country. Today’s $10 million announcement in Jewish community security funding will support security measures like 24 by 7 operations centres. This is one of a suite of measures we are taking.

An attack against Jewish Canadians is an attack against all Canadians and a violation of our fundamental values.
Our government is disgusted by the rise in antisemitic violence. We are taking immediate action to protect our communities:
1️⃣ We are investing $10M in the Canada Community Security Program to enhance security at Jewish synagogues, schools, community centers, and camps.
2️⃣ The RCMP is providing direct support to local police to identify and apprehend the cowards who attacked synagogues last week.
3️⃣ We will pass and implement Bill C-9 The Combatting Hate Act to better protect all places of worship from rising hate.
We will ensure that every Canadian can practice their faith in safety and peace.

I was proud to stand with my colleagues today and announce an investment of up to $10 million to be provided to organizations through the Canada Community Security Program (CCSP) to respond directly to the security needs of Jewish communities.
The recent rise in antisemitic attacks at synagogues across the GTA is deeply troubling and unacceptable. Hate and antisemitism have no place in our communities. This funding will support Jewish community command centres that coordinate monitoring and security for local institutions.
To Jewish communities in Toronto and across Canada: you are not alone — your government stands with you against antisemitism, hatred, and violence in all its forms.

Last week, 3 synagogues in the GTA were targeted by gunfire. In Toronto—St. Paul’s this morning, @HolyBlossom Temple experienced an incident of vandalism.
In the face of these antisemitic attacks, we’ve just announced $10M in immediate new security funding to specifically support the @UJAFederation Jewish Security Network, which will work closely with all levels of law enforcement to increase security and monitoring of Jewish community spaces and places of worship across Toronto.
This new funding—which will start flowing this week—will also help enhance security at schools, daycares, summer camps and synagogues in Montreal and across Canada. As Ministers @Gary_SRP, @JulieDabrusin and @EvanLSolomon described: this is a critically important measure to ensure the safety of Jewish Canadians and communities.

So Jews elsewhere in Canada are on their own? This is ridiculous of true. #cdnpoli

@AHousefather This announcement feels like a tacit admission that Canada is not prepared to protect Jews through meaningful enforcement of the law. Instead, the message seems to be: here is some funding to harden your facilities, and now you are left to brace for whatever comes next.

This is cowardly -- alQuds was established by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini in 1979. It has turned into a vicious anti-semitic hatefest calling for the murder of Jews and dissolution of Isreal. Ontario PCs have lost me. @fordnation

@WillBarclayPCBG @nationalpost I would add to this their unhealthy obsession with Islam too.
