Enriching American investment banks, signing secret backroom deals with @OntarioPCParty donors & insiders, flying around on private planes/charters, and promoting alcohol sales, are Doug Ford’s only priorities.

Ford needs to resign. Immediately.

hot take but multimillionaires should be funding scholarships not taking them

[Mike Young @micyoung75]

The man running the agency responsible for 340 million Americans' health arrives at 10am, leaves by 4pm, skips his own division chief meetings, and when he does show up - scrolls his phone and gets described by colleagues as "checked out."

Ebola is spreading. Six Americans already exposed. He has not briefed himself with CDC scientists. His response to a reporter asking if he was worried: "Yeah, we're working on it."

The CDC is being run by a health economist with no public health experience who already has another full-time job running NIH. Half of the 27 NIH institutes have no permanent director. The top FDA drug regulator got fired in May - Kennedy found out after it happened.
When measles killed two children in Texas, the CDC official leading the response asked repeatedly to brief Kennedy. He was rebuffed every time.

The person actually running HHS operations is a longtime personal adviser whose policy spreadsheet - more than 50 items - is hidden from the department's own policy team. When Kennedy gets asked a question, his standing answer is "just run that by Stefanie."

This is not a management philosophy. This is a vacancy wearing a title.

Given that you’re writing to FIFA re: the referee from Somalia being denied entry, @MayorOliviaChow, what is your take on his unambiguously antisemitic views?

Is this representative of the #Toronto you want to build?

Torontonians need to know in advance of October.

Referee denied entry.

Officials denied entry.

Players denied entry.

Fans denied entry.

The U.S. is proving exactly why it never should’ve been chosen to host the World Cup.

CNN = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
CBS = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
FOX = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
WaPo = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
WSJ = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.

Ah yes, tell me more about how the mainstream media is “far left.”

• I guess Ontario can shut off all electrical power exports to the USA
• and Alberta can stop exporting oil to the USA.

— according to Trump, the US doesn’t need anything from Canada.

Maybe do it for 24 hours. See how that goes.

[Prez @PrezLives2022]

Trumps 10 billion BBC lawsuit is about to implode. The BBC has just subpoenaed 47 different agencies including Trumps financial records and suddenly he has something to hide. This would be his second straight 10 billion dollar failure. The man can’t even sue correctly.

Great news!

Today Council passed my motion, seconded by the Mayor, with a suite of measures to help improve reliability of OC Transpo including adding more para Transpo service, transit priority street changes, LRT freezing rain fixes, more buses and 2 free weekends of service.

This weekend in Scotland a group of trans women protested topless. In order to be arrested for indecent exposure their government would have to acknowledge that they are women.

Fricking genius!
