Embarrassingly poor form to obtain the broadcasting rights to something like the NHL in these markets and then to shutdown the local coverage. How do we allow this to happen in Canada?

[Michelle @Michell33650674]

YEP!

Trump and Netanyahu killed every child in this photo.

Every. Single. One.

Not combatants.
Not militants.

Schoolkids from Minab, Iran.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Netanyahu is the extremist who killed 75,000 in Gaza.

The extremist who said invading Iraq would create "enormous positive reverberations."

The extremist who has pushed U.S. presidents to go to war with Iran for decades.

Finally, he found a President who said yes.

Tragic.

🚨 BREAKING: Rep. Ted Lieu says the full Epstein files contain information that Donald Trump RAPED minors.

So he started a war to distract us from his crimes.

Never stop speaking about Epstein.

🚨 Canada joins Spain in criticizing the U.S.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said the U.S.–Israeli war against Iran reflects a failure of the international system, adding that Washington and Israel acted without involving the UN or consulting allies, including Canada.

BREAKING:

The US and Israel dropped bombs on an elementary school for girls in Iran’s city of Minab.

36 little girls have been killed so far.

People are still pulling bodies from under the rubble.

Not militants. Not combatants.

Little girls. Students.

This is terrorism.

CHINA:

"The US is a war addict. Throughout its over 240-year history, it has been at war for all but 16 years.

The US has 800 overseas military bases in over 80 countries and regions.

The US is the main cause of international disorder, global turbulence, and regional instability."

[Keith Olbermann @KeithOlbermann]

"Operation Epic Fury" because
"Operation Epstein Diversion" didn't sound warfightery enough

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.  Americans do not want this. They do not want another war in pursuit of regime change. They want relief from the affordability crisis. They want peace.

I am focused on making sure that every New Yorker is safe. I have been in contact with our Police Commissioner and emergency management officials. We are taking proactive steps, including increasing coordination across agencies and enhancing patrols of sensitive locations out of an abundance of caution.

Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here.

Canada should also be on the right side of history too @MarkJCarney please be brave and withdraw support. The world needs learned, principled, and unwavering leadership now.

[Mega-Politics @_MegaPolitics]

Breaking:

Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Spain condemned Israeli and the US airstrike on Iran.

[sarah @sahouraxo]

Spain’s MEP, Irene Montero:

“They say Iran has nuclear weapons — sounds like what they said about Iraq.”

“But it is Israel that has nuclear weapons.”

“The U.S. is the only country to ever drop a nuclear bomb.”

“Today, Israel and the U.S. are the greatest threat to humanity.”

[𝙱𝚒𝚕𝚕𝚢𝙳𝟹  @billyd3_]

You cannot bury the Epstein files under Iran's rubble

[Justin Amash @justinamash]

The president has no lawful authority to participate in strikes on Iran.

The Framers of the Constitution placed the power to commence war in the hands of Congress, the body most accountable to the people.

U.S. military action violates the law and recklessly endangers Americans.

Donald Trump should be impeached for a third time.

What he has done tonight is illegal under the US constitution and the UN charter.

[Meribeth Burton @MeribethBurton]

@realDonaldTrump Putting thousands of lives at risks to avoid child rape charges. Investigate. Impeach. #EpsteinTrumpCoverUp

[PLGC @PL67712441]

Explain to me why Hillary Clinton is testifying about Epstein while Melania Trump is not.

[Foreign Press Assoc. @FPAIsPal]

Let us in.

For more than two years, we’ve been barred from entering Gaza to report freely. It’s long past time for Israel to lift this ban and #LetUsIn.

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre.

She had the courage to speak out against power & privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s.

Thanks to her, justice may finally have its day.
