One thing I’m certain of after watching the absolute annihilation of the republicans last night:
@AOC is 100% running for president in 2028. There may not be another cycle that is more primed for someone like her in her entire lifetime

Meanwhile Canada is like “Just let us elect one more right wing government bro we just need a few more tax cuts and breaks for the richest it’ll trickle down eventually bro please. Just a few more cuts to social services please bro please”
Can’t Afford a Home. Can’t Afford a Baby. Can’t Afford Life. This Is 30. nytimes.com/2026/10/25/nyreg…
It should be illegal for Israel’s top arms producer to purchase a Canadian company.
Elbit Systems is complicit in the genocide of Palestinians.
Cancel the Canada-Israel Free Trade Agreement, enact sanctions and a two-way arms embargo now.

This video captures settlers beating Heidi. They clubbed her, kicked her. Pulled her up off the ground to beat her more. Robbed her of all her equipment. If she didn’t have a helmet—and if she was Palestinian—she could be dead.
Canada cannot afford to lose its steel industry. It's time to nationalize Stelco.
Stelco’s American owners have broken their commitments. Their CEO supports Trump’s tariffs, which are designed to deindustrialize our economy and destroy our manufacturing base.
More than 500 workers in Hamilton are facing layoffs.
If we’re serious about saving these jobs and the Canadian steel industry, Canada must nationalize Stelco.

This was not an “error” this was intentional theft of 135 million from workers. The CEO of @DoorDash should be in prison.
Since 2023, more than 200,000 Dashers in New York City were underpaid or paid late under the City’s delivery worker pay rules. These errors were unintentional, but that doesn’t make them acceptable. Dashers should be paid in full, on time, every time. We take full responsibility, and we’re deeply sorry.
We’ve reached a $131.5 million settlement with the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection. Every impacted Dasher will receive the amount they are owed, and they’ll be contacted directly with payment details.
We understand the impact of even one missed or late payment. We’ve addressed the issues that caused these errors and made changes to prevent them from happening again.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
DoorDash spent $1 million in the 2025 NYC mayoral election against Zohran Mamdani, whose campaign included promises to investigate delivery/Rideshare services for underpaying/withholding wages.

The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”.
The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America.
We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms.
Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.

Here is Ezra Klein saying almost the exact same thing Hasan Piker is being denounced for btw
The malicious claim that American Jews are inviting violence against themselves is dangerous and antisemitic.
There is zero justification for threats against the safety of our Jewish brothers and sisters at a moment of rising hate.
We will fight the cancer of antisemitism with the fierce urgency of now.

Our government talks about Canadian values on the world stage, but we need it to act with moral clarity when it matters.
It’s long past time to cancel the Canada-Israel free trade agreement, issue sanctions, and use every diplomatic tool at our disposal to rein in this rogue state.
Anything less is a green light for Israel to continue killing civilians with impunity.
The IDF’s decision not to pursue a criminal investigation into the killing of seven World Central Kitchen humanitarian workers, including Jacob Flickinger, a Canadian citizen, is unacceptable.
Serious failures were identified in the conduct of the strike, and closing the case without further accountability leaves their families without the answers they have sought for more than two years.
Humanitarian workers delivering food and other life-saving assistance in conflict zones must be protected. Canada expects international humanitarian law to be upheld and will continue pressing for a full accounting of what happened, along with justice for the seven workers who were killed and their families.
This @weeklyshowpod John Stewart interview with Fetterman feels like a teacher trying to teach a first grader basic critical thinking and reasoning skills (unsuccessfully)

Such a perfect summary of the online @hasanthehun discourse. He’s both a “vote blue no matter who” democrat and also a 3rd party voter (both are lies obviously) but also a Marxist communist on Fox News. Hasan = whatever your side thinks is bad

I have huge respect for people with the courage to join the Global Sumud Flotilla.
They put their bodies at risk because they do not believe their lives are more valuable than the lives of Palestinians.
It is shameful that government ministers express indignation for Canadians when they have utterly failed to show it for Palestinians, who have endured untold cruelty for the better part of a century.
But that’s the world we live in, and the bravery of the flotilla participants shows the glaring double standard, and helps build pressure to rein in the rogue state of Israel.
It’s an extreme tactic in response to extreme impunity.
And the goal is to stop the genocide and dismantle Israeli apartheid.
I have just received information from my officials which details the appalling abuse of Canadians who were detained in Israel.
These Canadians have now arrived in Türkiye. Global Affairs consular officials on the ground are ensuring that they receive urgent medical care as required so that they can return home as soon as possible.
Canada unequivocally condemns the grave mistreatment of Canadians in Israel. Those responsible for this egregious abuse must be held accountable. We will continue to provide additional information as it becomes available.

This is verified and real footage of the IDF committing a double tap massacre against rescue workers in Lebanon. Israel is clearly giving orders to kill ambulance crews or this would not keep happening. The absolute evil behind this is breathtaking.
It’s a relief to hear the Prime Minister express some moral outrage over Ben-Gvir’s brutish behaviour, outrage which has been missing during Israel’s attack on Iran, bombardment of Lebanon and ongoing genocide in Gaza.
But strong words must be followed by strong action. Sanctioning individual ministers is not enough when this cruelty is mirrored in Israeli state policy. Close the loophole on arms sales, cancel the free trade agreement and use every tool in Canada’s diplomatic arsenal to end Israel’s impunity.
The abominable treatment of civilians aboard the flotilla, including that which is documented in footage shared by Itamar Ben-Gvir, is unacceptable.
Canada’s Minister of Foreign Affairs has directed officials to summon the Israeli ambassador to demand assurances regarding the safety and security of Canadians involved.
Canada has already imposed strict sanctions on Mr. Ben-Gvir, including asset freezes and a travel ban, in response to his repeated incitement of violence. The protection of civilians and respect for human dignity must be upheld everywhere, at all times.
