This is a really cool protest. Go to your local county councils or your city boards and when the issue of data centers comes up play the sound of a data center near you so that nothing can get done.

‘Just a cold’
Al Pacino says he passed out with COVID in his apartment, woke up to five paramedics in his living room, and was told his pulse had stopped
"I felt I left the Earth when I passed out."
"Next thing I know, I open my eyes and there's five paramedics in my living room."
"And they were my doctors, but I couldn't recognize them from head to toe."
"But they said, my pulse had stopped."
The last thing he remembers is asking the name of the guy filling him up with fluids. Then he wakes up to two doctors in what looked like space suits, and his first thought is that it looks like a film set. Fifty years in front of cameras will do that.

A HUGE congrats to all the trade unionists who organized for years to secure this win ✊🏼🇵🇸
Canada's unions passed a resolution calling on workers to refuse to handle weapons and military equipment destined for Israel.
We stand with Palestinian workers in their fight for peace, justice, and respect for international law.

Jasper Nathaniel is an American citizen. He just got beat up by Israeli settler terrorists and arrested. Who knows what will happen to him next. He is risking his life. Please repost and if any journalists who follow me see this, can you please write about it or pass it along?

This is human trafficking.
ICE deports 10 Cuban refugees—to African country they've never been to.
"This is a kidnapping," woman said.
"Tricked us saying we were going to Miami—ended up in Africa.
Hands & feet shackled entire 25 hour flight.
"They hit me, pulled my hair, threw me against plane windows," said another woman.
"It was horrible! They forced me down among men."
Several women showed marks and bruises on their arms—and swollen feet that made it hard to walk after being shackled.
Their passports and phones were confiscated or destroyed by ICE agents.
Leaving them without identification or a way to contact anyone.
Now worry about being detained by local police in Bangui, Central African Republic—because they have no documents or legal status.

Just so we're all clear on this, the Trump administration is harboring a fugitive illegal immigrant after they tried to steal an election with help from his billionaire donors.

The war crimes of the terror state of Israel are endless.

I'm just glad I don't live in a dictatorship but a free democracy where every few years I can vote for a different banker or lawyer or landlord that represents the vast network of powerful corporate interests that controls every aspect of my life from cradle to grave

You live at the center of a global military empire with ~1,000 overseas bases, strangling countries w/ sanctions, coups & war for refusing to submit to US dictates. Thinking Americans shouldn’t care about elections abroad is brain dead imperial chauvinism

.@RepRashida's parents were born in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, which means her relatives there have lived for almost 60 years without citizenship or the right to vote for the government that controls their lives. Of course it was never about Netanyahu. It's about Palestinian freedom.

Yes it was always about the apartheid, the occupation, and the genocide.
This isn’t rocket science.

This Trump-supporting pos bought Stelco knowing he was going to shut it down. It should be taken over and nationalized by the Canadian govt asap.

A new parliamentarian has been elected in Israel.
His name is Moshe Feiglin.
His views?
"Every child, every baby in Gaza is an enemy. We need to conquer Gaza and colonise it. And not leave a single child there. There is no other victory."
Read that again.
Worse than a Nazi.

One of the dumbest things we are asked to believe about Iran is that it keeps taking time away from defending itself against US-Israeli aggressions to orchestrate random acts of arson and vandalism in mid-power western states for no discernible benefit to its strategic interests.
Today CBC published an article with the headline: “Why a spate of gun-for-hire shootings in Toronto were likely paid for by Iran.”
I was intrigued, as there has been almost 0 evidence offered for this claim thus far.
Unfortunately this article doesn’t offer any either, adding nothing new. CBC says they spent weeks on the investigation, so these are pretty pitiful results, at least in terms of finding evidence of who paid for the shootings.
I’m not sure why they feel comfortable with such a declarative headline given the lack of evidence (other than journalistic standards going out the window when the subject is an Official Enemy country).
Also, CBC and other journalists continue platforming police claims that they need backdoor access to messaging apps to solve these shootings, with no push back or critique about how these powers can be abused, including against journalists.

Good News: Canada is joining Eurovision!
Bad News: Canada is only joining Eurovision because people are leaving in protest over Israel and they needed scab countries to fill spaces!
Canada is going to Eurovision 2027. It’s up to you to decide who takes the stage.
Cast your vote by November 5.

People who say they "don't care where it came from" 🤨 I assume they're shills or bots for the coverup.
