The reason Carney is spending so much on the military isn't about defense
It's obedience to Trump: He asked for more military spending, and Carney bent the fucking knee like a coward
Texas, Mississippi, and Kansas just said no to Trump: and yet Carney continues to back his war crimes.

Apparently there’s a lady named Dana White who is an DoD public affairs assistant and I guarantee you someone recommended her to Trump and he thought they meant UFC Dana White and nobody is allowed to correct him lol

I like how every interview with Avi Lewis leaves the mainstream host flabbergasted because they've never heard someone cut through the Liberal-Conservative duopoly propaganda
It's like he's opening their eyes in real time

Avi is absolutely right. The super-rich threaten but rarely actually leave when you raise their taxes -- as tax expert Neil Brooks & I show in our new book "Cancelling Billionaires Before They Cancel Us: The Urgent Case for a Wealth Tax."
This isn't even a question. A Jewish man is the most popular active politician in America, and there are 10 Jewish Senators, all of them Democrats.
A Jewish man nearly won the nomination in 2016 and 2020, and a Jewish man is currently the big favourite for 2028
AOC in 2nd is obviously excellent
The challenge will be that Ossoff and Buttigieg fill the same lane, and most of his 14% would lean Ossoff

Yes! Lewis points out why we need a wealth tax -- and reminds us why we need him.
Champagne interrupted Lewis here because he fears Canadians hearing the truth about Carney's right-wing trickle down budget
He couldn't let Avi be heard clearly.
He's afraid.
The finance minister decided to interrupt my interview, so I challenged him on his billionaire’s budget.
We won't make life affordable by giving more handouts to the 1%. It's time to tax the rich so we can all share in the wealth of this country. Add your name: ndp.ca/take-action/wealth-ta…
Carney bent the knee when Trump demanded Canada spend 5% of GDP on the military
That was entirely Trump's demand, and Carney simply gave him what he wanted like a coward.
At a time when Trump is weak, Carney helps make him stronger.

“Canadians aren’t stupid. We see Galen Weston getting richer and richer as grocery costs skyrocket. We know we’re being ripped off.”
NDP leader Avi Lewis is calling for a public grocery option across Canada and an end to grocery store monopolies. cultmtl.com/2026/11/canada-n…
This is a sharp way of taking down Schumer.
If the assumption is Jeffries is gonna be speaker, you push back against NYC getting both leadership positions
PSAKI: “Your thoughts on @SenSchumer for senate leader?”
@scott_colom: “My concern is too many of our leaders are from the same area of the country.”

Actually not a bad way to spin it

Incredibly arrogant of Champagne to cut in while Lewis is doing a live interview

Christmas came early for billionaires, investors, and arms dealers. The “Masters of our Destiny” are the people who the PM invited to his investment summit. The time to put in place a wealth tax is long past due!
