Tonight Al Green will go down as a hero, once again. Remember, this is the sole member of Congress who has filed & forced a vote on articles of impeachment.
Every other Democrat: take note.
My thoughts are with Ukraine today. Thinking of the many beautiful Ukrainian students I have gotten to know over the past four years who continue to persevere, grow, and laugh each day. 🇺🇦
The Trump regime deported a 2-month-old baby and his family after the infant was hospitalized following their detention at the Dilley family detention center.
Rep. Joaquin Castro says the family was shipped off with only the money in their commissary — $190.
The cruelty is endless.
The cure for ignorance is not information. It's humility and curiosity.
Facts can be easily dismissed. What motivates people to gain insight is recognizing gaps in their understanding and wanting to find out more.
The root of lifelong learning is knowing how little we know.
My heart goes out to the people of Tumbler Ridge, BC, as they grapple with this tragedy now and in the years to come.
This is the second deadliest school shooting in Canadian history. We need to keep it that way. 🇨🇦
More reports of Gmail turning over email content to ICE are coming out now.

Hmm. Not sure how China and hockey are connected.
So proud to be Canadian.
🇨🇦 always and forever
Another year, another record high for Canadian oil and gas production. At some point, the oil and gas industry and its various proxies might want to face up to the fact that Liberal governments are actually good for their business, @maxfawcett.bsky.social writes.
Boycott Bezos
Boycott all things Amazon
So uh, do these Conservative MPs and influencers think their supporters are stupid?
Because I'm not sure why else they would keep spreading the blatant lie that the 'legacy' or 'mainstream' media just admitted it has the prime minister's 'back.'
Oh well. I guess it's time for a fact check!
If this doesn't terrify you or if you just don't believe it could happen, you need to wake up. @democracydocket.com
Boycott these companies wherever possible, Canadians.
Apple & Google removed ICE tracking apps in their app stores.
TikTok reportedly suppressed videos criticizing ICE & the shooting of Alex Pretti.
Meta blocked Facebook groups tracking ICE & links to a database of agents that the government wants to keep secret.
Big Tech is enabling Trump's regime.
Celebrate International Day of Education today.
Commit to education.
Education is a human right.
250 million children and adolescents are not in school.
MLK Jr. said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people."
Remember this.
@hcrichardson.bsky.social wrote an incredibly important and relevant letter on January 9th. Please read or listen to it on Substack.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy
An article worth reading by Andrew Coyne.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.
Sundown tonight marks the beginning of #Hanukkah, also known as the “festival of lights.” It’s an eight-day Jewish holiday commemorating the rededication of the Holy Temple (the Second Temple) in Jerusalem at the time of the Maccabean Revolt of the 2nd century BCE.
Israel has killed 249 journalists in the last 2 years.
That's more than were killed in WWII & the Vietnam War put together.
A Vermonter, Dylan Collins, was wounded in one of these attacks, which killed another reporter. This war against journalists must be investigated & ended.
Trump's approval ratings are tanking. He's flailing on the economy. Epstein haunts him. Republicans are beginning to revolt against him.
He's not all powerful.
A tyrant can exercise tyranny only insofar as the objects of his tyranny continue to allow it.
Remember this.
"...the US CBP said it would require telephone numbers used by visitors in the past 5 years, and any email addresses used in the last decade, as well as face, fingerprint, DNA and iris biometrics. It would also ask for names, addresses, birthdates & birthplaces of family members, including children"
Thanks to @joycewhitevance.bsky.social for this important article about T's clear disdain for women.
"We could be here all night listing the misogyny, but the sad truth is, MAGA doesn’t care. The men like it and the women, inexplicably, are willing to tolerate it.”
Please read the most recent Substack article from @rbreich.bsky.social. We all need to wake up and stop supporting these oligarchs whenever possible.
