Science is not about government, or right and left, or free speech. It’s just science. It’s about individuals spending their lives studying a specific subject. Politicians who know nothing about those subjects should have no say. I shudder to think what might have happened during the polio outbreak under today's U.S politicians.

Edit: In support of your comment.

Cash is a good idea. With my bank I have unlimited CC transactions, but I’m limited on my DC transactions before a fee kicks in. Time to start putting pressure on Canadian banks. Anyone out there good at creating a petition? I would definitely sign!

Elections don’t work when education has been systematically degraded. Elections don’t work when there are no restrictions on the amount of contributions that oligarchs can contribute to a political candidate. Elections don’t work when there is no safeguard against election tampering. Elections don’t work when oligarchs own the media.

A question from someone who knows nothing about warfare… As a commonwealth country, could we expect support?

No disrespect or judgement here. But honestly, I can’t believe Americans hadn’t completely lost their shit decades ago over the lack of healthcare in their country.

What a joke. Judges, unless they’re Trumps minions, have zero authority.

Thank you for posting this, crozilla. Really disturbing. It should be “required watching” for every human being. Please don’t be too busy to watch. Turn up the volume, prep and cook dinner, fold laundry, anything. At least listen! And, at this time in history, Canadians: TAKE NOTE! Do not be complacent in our elections. This is serious shit. The U.S.A. has no soul.

The Statue of Liberty symbolizes freedom and opportunity, representing the ideals of liberty and democracy. Originally a gift from France, it has become an iconic welcome for immigrants arriving in the United States, embodying hope and the pursuit of a better life. The USA has turned the Statue of Liberty into a travesty.

“violated Treasury policy”, “previously resigned”, “found to have broken protocol”, “a lawsuit from 19 state attorneys general”, etc. This just doesn’t mean anything anymore. There is no law.

Oligarchs are buying up and controlling all media. When they control the media, they not only control the news, they can literally manufacture the news.

This is dictatorship. There is no longer a “Law of the Land”.
