Things Democratic Senators could do that would be useful:
- Withdraw unanimous consent from all Senate business until constitutional rule was restored
- Refuse to vote for any legislation until constitutional rule was restored
- Boycott as a caucus until constitutional rule was restored
I've been thinking a lot about fear—how it isolates us and how we break through it.
Read my reflection on how we are moving from fear to determination and building a better nation.

I'm back!! Big heat comes to BC this weekend, I can't wait. Meanwhile a deadly severe weather event is shaping up once again far to the east of the mountains. It's a regular spring crazy week with tornadoes and who knows, it's a concerning outlook no matter what. youtu.be/TJOWi-842Cg
With the abrupt shutdown of USAID funding, many clinics, including those serving women in remote areas, have shuttered. Midwives are reporting that mothers and babies are dying as a result.
Looking for something you can do to make this chaotic world a little better? @crytzerfry.bsky.social is trying to save a natural area in Arizona from being mined and needs help with letters! It's an area filled with fascinating wildlife that Melissa captures and documents with her trail cams.
It'll be great to see you Edmonton!!!
I hope polls are right & Poilievre loses his seat, and the CPC pivots back toward the centre.
But I fear an even more radical replacement, someone promoted by the US to destabilize our country.
We WILL need to fight information warfare like 🇫🇮 does.

One place to start is to stop calling it ‘disinformation’.
It is information warfare.
Authoritarian nations are weaponizing information & social media to destabilize democracies and radicalize segments of the population.
We are being attacked by an enemy - not neutral ‘disinformation’.

This was a great show in Hamilton! If you missed it, they play Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto on June 1.
Oh my fucking god.
It looks like Israel murdered eight Palestine Red Crescent Society workers, a UN employee, and five civil defense staff.
They crushed up and buried entire ambulances and civil defense vehicles in the fucking mass grave.

Seeing Japan, S. Korea and China's flags standing side by side is WILD to me.
A team of scientists from the University of Colorado were studying white-necked jacobin #hummingbirds in Panama when they made a #discovery. The #chicks of this species are born with feathers that resembles the hair that surrounds #caterpillars. Coincidence? Nope! buff.ly/peX7C9l

They can’t bring back that father who was legally in the US seeking asylum because he’s a Salvadoran sent to an El Salvador prison. Sue ICE. Sue everyone.
Despite his steady refusal to object to unanimous consent and his continuous confirmation of Trump appointees, Democrats were so desperate for leadership in early 2025 they even temporarily rallied behind a performative Cory Booker act hours before the end-of-quarter Q1 fundraising deadline
"But no provincial government, perhaps in Canadian history, has aligned itself more closely to a federal party than Moe’s Saskatchewan Party has with Poilievre’s Conservatives." thestarphoenix.com/opinion/colu...
Booker should have been blocking the funding bill but Schumer was too busy voting for it
Democrats did this but then didn’t pass any police reform nor did they campaign against Republicans for blocking it, so pardon me if cynical about Booker’s Schumer-approved speech
Democrats know their base is pissed at them. They also know their base are suckers for theater kid skits that aren’t backed up by substance. So here we are.
This need to be blown up. The man was escaping the Salvadoran gangs and they threw him into a prison full of them. It's a Kafkaesque nightmare.
They can get him back if they want to.
once again, every accusation is a confession. republicans spent 15 years accusing democrats of winning elections by trading cash for votes. now, here we are.
PP's poisonous regime would be even worse than Harper
Sears: “Lest we forget,” it will be important to pass those lessons to future generations. How close we came to lasting damage & how important it is to resist the fatal temptation of that poisonous politics when next it slithers into view
Never forget: Pollievre = Harper

If the European Union works with Canada in order to do economic harm to the USA, large scale Tariffs, far larger than currently planned, will be placed on them both in order to protect the best friend that each of those two countries has ever had!
Trump's 2am "stop fighting back!!!" post does have an air of desperation to it.
