The Trump Regime has dropped 23,000 DOJ criminal cases for drugs, trafficking, fraud, gangs, and even 1,000 terrorism cases in the last year. Additionally, the "law and order" regime pardoned nearly 1,600 domestic terrorists, many of whom have since been re-arrested for rape, child kidnapping, child molestation, & possession of child porn. propublica.org/article/trump-… yahoo.com/news/articles/… nbcnews.com/politics/justi…

@BeachLoverOnt @TDotResident Kara Ford started the job just over a year ago making $134,000. The Chairman of Ontario Place is also on the Board of Runnymeade. Kara got a $100,000 in raises in less than a year because the Chair of Ontario Place is a Ford friend. That is how Ford spends OUR money.

Canada joins its partners in expressing concern about the death penalty law passed by the Israeli Knesset that, in practice, systematically targets Palestinians. This discriminatory law adds to a growing list of actions which enables illegal settler violence while dehumanizing the Palestinian people. Canada unequivocally opposes its application. We reaffirm our commitment to human rights and the global movement to abolish the death penalty.

🚨JUST IN: Marco Rubio on Fox News: “Since NATO isn’t allowing us to use their bases — why are we in NATO? We’re going to have to reexamine the value of this alliance.” NATO was founded in 1949. Article 5 — collective defense — was invoked once in history, after September 11th. Every NATO ally showed up for America. America started a war without consulting NATO. Without congressional authorization. Without allied support. On a feeling. Now Rubio is questioning the alliance because allies won’t fight America’s unilateral war.

I don't think people understand the gravity of the situation linked to the strikes on oil depots in Iran, the desalination plant in Bahrain, on oil infrastructures in Saudi Arabia and Oman, and beyond. Bombing oil depots across Tehran didn't just kill civilians. It poisoned the air, covered in thick black toxic clouds of smoke, contaminated the water and turned the sky into acid rain, raining oil on millions of people with cancerous polluted air entering every lung. This has serious environmental and humanitarian consequences. Hazardous "black rain" and "acidic rain" in Iran and Saudi Arabia could pose serious health risks as toxic pollutants spread in the air, and the attacks on desalination facility in Bahrain has also threatened water access for civilians—raise concerns of "wider regional pollution exposure", with the long-term effects of pollutants, affect respiratory health and contaminate water, that will affect people for years. Every bomb dropped on an oil depots is a time bomb for the people and the planet. This has moved beyond geopolitics. It's a crime against humanity.

The bombs are still falling. But Washington has already lost. A former US military adviser said what most analysts are thinking: Trump’s war on Iran has alienated every ally America has left. Not some. All of them. Military victories can be measured in targets destroyed. This defeat cannot. It is happening in foreign ministries, in trade corridors, in quiet conversations between leaders who no longer trust Washington to behave like a serious country. The United States turned against its allies. The tariffs came first. Then the threats against Greenland. Then the abandonment of Ukraine. Now a unilateral war that nobody signed up for, followed by demands that everyone join in anyway. When you spend years burning bridges, do not be surprised when nobody comes to your war. The military result in Iran is still uncertain. The strategic result is not. America is alone. And it got there fast. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

@TDotResident @radiogirl985 Little wonder that hypocrite Ford can lecture students that “money doesn’t grow on trees” and doubles down on severely cutting OSAP grants. Nepo baby who inherited his father’s business, fortune and political name. Now this with his daughter. So privileged. So out of touch.

Kara Ford, daughter of Doug Ford, took home $130k in 2022 managing public affairs at Runnymede Hospital with a two-year diploma in broadcast television. #Onted workers should feel free to share this information with anti-teacher trolls all up in their mentions.

Kara Ford with her 2-year broadcast television diploma from Conestoga College that she completed in 2018 now earns $211K, annual wages that surpass what most 30-y-o physicians in Ontario make. How many lives has she saved at Runnymede Hospital?

Kaja Kallas. EU’s foreign policy chief. Stood with Ukraine every single day since Russia invaded. Zelensky just gave her the Order of Princess Olha. One of Ukraine’s highest honours. Add it to the long list of prizes Donald Trump will never receive. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1
Kaja Kallas@kajakallas

I am honoured to receive the Order of Princess Olha. Ukraine has been on my mind every day since Russia started its war of aggression. Thank you again, dear @ZelenskyyUa, for this great honour. I will do what I can to support your country defend itself.

This photo is of a lighter from the American soldiers of the Vietnam War. The inscription reads, "We the unwilling, led by the unqualified to kill the unfortunate, die for the ungrateful." Perhaps these words capture well the essence of that war through the eyes of a soldier. The essence of many wars, maybe including the current one! #war
