We have people in power making broad claims around certain drugs and autism that have been continuously disproven. The degree to which those comments can undermine public health, do harm to women who are pregnant, create anxiety for parents who do have children who are autistic – is violence against the truth.
Come to think of it, denigrating the worth of a soldier’s service based on whether he deployed to a war zone is… kind of like denigrating the worth of a woman’s citizenship based on whether she happens to have children.
If you agree that Canadian women will not be silent and that Pierre Poilievre is a misogynist, then we need to follow each other and stand together! #WomenAgainstPoilievre#IStandWithTrudeau2025
BREAKING: Hunter Biden made $640 million while “working” in daddy’s administration, and received $2 billion from the people behind 9/11.
Now that I got Republicans’ attention. That was actually Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump.
President Biden loves his son, Hunter, dearly.
You could hear it clearly in the message he left for his son while he was in the terrible grips of addiction. “It’s Dad. I called to tell you I love you. I love you more than the whole world, pal. You gotta get some help. I know you don’t know what to do. I don’t either.”
As a Dad, I know he had to be hurting, powerless to help his son climb out of that dark hole.
As a Dad, I know if has to be painful for him to bear with the millions of people clamoring to maliciously smear his son, who is still on the road to recovery from addiction.
As a Dad, I know that it had to be difficult to step aside and allow the Justice Department to appoint a special counsel to investigate his son.
Because you know what? If it were one of MY sons, I don't know that I'd have the intestinal fortitude to do that. ME PERSONALLY. But then again, I'm not the President, nor do I have any desire to be.
But that had to be hard as hell, knowing that it will give the right wing yet another talking point about his son, regardless of how empty and desperate the GOP's smear tactics may seem. You want to protect your kids from that, if it's in your power.
I know Donald Trump wouldn't do that... shit, Ivanka had those 18 Chinese trademarks approved because of her Dad. Did he approve an investigation into that? Hell no.
What about his son-in-law, Jared Kushner? Jared wasn't qualified for a job in the White House, couldn't even correctly complete a security clearance form, and yet Trump put him in there so he could soak up all of those million and billion dollar deals. Investigate him? Hell no.
Come to think of it, the ONLY person Trump approved an investigation into was... HUNTER BIDEN. And what did President Biden do when he took office? Did he defund the investigation? Did he try to derail it?
No. He allowed it to run its course.
So I'm a little pissed that Hunter Biden is being investigated. Talk about weaponization of government? It's been weaponized against him, to hurt his Dad.
But I am confident that, when the investigation is done, if Hunter is guilty, he will pay the consequences.
But it will NOT change my decision to vote to re-elect President Biden, who is a good Dad, a kind human being, and one of the best Presidents we have had in a long time.
It is the expectation of the Board that all schools and workplaces across YRDSB fly the progressive Pride flag throughout the month of June.
We look forward to celebrating the 2SLGBTQI+ community throughout
#PRIDEMonth!
#InspirePrideYRDSB#PRIDE
As some may be aware, last week, individuals chose to hold anti-2SLGBTQIA+ demonstrations outside of our schools.
ICYMI please read this message that clearly outlines our stance as a board. Our support of the #2SLGBTQIA+ community will not waver. https://t.co/eAiYZEUsXD
HOLY SHIT. 75% of Florida’s residents either somewhat or strongly oppose DeSantis’ six-week abortion ban — including 61% of Republicans.
DeSantis just ended his career.
And it gets worse.
Not only did DeSantis sign Florida’s near total abortion ban at 11pm, not only did they censor public input as they pushed it through, but the new ban requires women who are victims of RAPE or INCEST to show PROOF to get an exception to the ban.
This ban would prevent four million Florida women of reproductive age from accessing abortion care after six weeks — before many women even know they're pregnant.
There is absolutely no way Gen-Z and women are going to allow this to stand.
DeSantis is f*cked.
