HUGE LEGAL WIN FOR UNHOUSED IN CANADA "...They are Us. They are rights bearers no less entitled than any other Canadian citizens to the full benefit and protection of the Charter." Goosebumps! Those are the words of an Ontario Superior Court judge, recognizing the humanity of people living in homelessness. (1/10)

James Baldwin said it in 1965 and it has not aged a single day: The reason Americans cannot face their history is that the history indicts their identity. And you cannot ask someone to accept the evidence that destroys who they think they are. White Americans, he said, need the Black American to remain inferior, because their own superiority is the only thing that makes sense of a country built on those terms. The same structure applies outward. Americans need the rest of the world to remain in need of American guidance, American intervention, American rescue. Because without that story, what exactly was all the violence for? The empire doesn't just extract resources. It extracts meaning. And the people who built their inner lives on that meaning will fight as hard to keep it as any general ever fought to keep territory. Harder, maybe. You can negotiate territory. You cannot negotiate with someone's need to believe they are one of the good ones.

He resigned from the U.N. and ended his diplomatic career to leak the fact that they’re preparing for a nuclear weapon to bomb Iran. We’re not doing enough to stop this.

People are going to make the invasion of Venezuela about Trump but that will miss the point. This isn't about Trump it's about America. Democrats will line up to support this because the US is a despotic, oligarchic, fake democracy revelling in violence and imperial power

Joe Biden carried out a GENOCIDE. Obama bombed and starved Yemen for the entirety of his presidency. Toppled governments in Honduras & Libya. Clinton bombed Afghanistan, Somalia, and Sudan. Democrats are just as evil and hawkish as Republicans.

Make no mistake: Canada has contributed to the conditions preceding the latest criminal aggression by the U.S. against Venezuela. Canada's interference in Venezuela dates back to the earliest days of the Bolivarian Revolution. This includes (but is not limited to): 🇨🇦 Facilitation of the Lima Group and its support for coup attempts in Venezuela; 🇨🇦 Imposing politically motivated sanctions, including against some Venezuelan lawyers and judges; and 🇨🇦 Endorsing broader U.S.-led campaigns to undermine Venezuelan sovereignty. Canada was complacent as the U.S. bombed 35 boats in the Caribbean Sea and extrajudicially killed 115 people. It now continues in the same fashion as the U.S. kidnaps President Maduro, following an egregious violation of Article 2(4) of the UN Charter. Of all the countries in the world for the U.S. (and Canada) to target for intervention, the reason for choosing Venezuela is simple: it holds the largest oil reserves in the world. Conveniently, Canada treats international law as optional and readily dispenses with it when faced with competing economic or political objectives.
