This one of the wildest Canadian politics stories I’ve seen in a while. A Liberal nomination race in the province of Ontario is being rocked by allegations of serious irregularities in voting — and it’s exposing a flaw in Canadian democracy that politicians of all stripes are speaking out about:

Return of the Left? The NDP crown their leader this weekend! What’ll it mean for the future of progressive politics in Canada? Plus: Poilievre went on Rogan, Canada’s top cop said something wild and big tech is having some big troubles. @parismarx.com and @supriya.bsky.social discuss: Sneak peek:
What the hell is going on in Canadian media? Why was journalist Tina Yazdani — who was dogged in her coverage of Ontario Premier Doug Ford’s government — suddenly fired from CityNews without any explanation to the public? This is potential-major-press-freedom-story levels of concerning:
It’s not often I get to report good news, so we’re going to take some time to do that today — because @theonion.com officially has a deal to take over Alex Jones’ InfoWars. Their plan? To turn it into a parody of itself. It’s going to be so good:
A CANADIAN Trump critic is suing the U.S. administration to stop them from getting his personal data from Google. After the user posted criticism about federal agents killing protesters, DHS asked Google for his associated names, addresses, phone numbers, credit card and bank information. Yikes:
The reporter follows up by asking Carney: “do you regret your initial support of this war?” The point of this support, Carney replied, was “the ending of both that state sponsored terrorism and the nuclear ambitions of Iran.” “That remains the case.”
“We need (a government) that acts with moral clarity when it matters,” Avi Lewis says. “When missiles are falling on schools and hospitals, when Israel commits a genocide in Gaza, we call it by its name and we do everything in our power to bring it to an end.”
Canada’s wealth gap is the widest it’s been in StatCan’s recorded history. You’d think Carney would focus on that -- not privatization. In fact, “Carney’s policies will only make inequality even worse," @dtcochrane.bsky.social, a senior economist with the Canadian Labour Congress, told me. Uh oh:
Just 90 minutes before Trump’s self-imposed deadline last night, a two-week ceasefire deal was reached. Had they not reached a deal, Trump was threatening war crimes and genocide. But what brought us here? How do we help Iranian citizens who are suffering? @smohyeddin.bsky.social joins me:
I want to talk about the subtle ways people online can influence how you and others around you think. Because I’ve noticed a trend. Not only is actually pretty smart, but it seems to help accounts gain influence over online conversations — for better or for worse worse:
In today’s video, I’m going to show you a clip. In it, Israel’s national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir can be seen toasting champagne to celebrate a apartheid law enacting a death penalty for Palestinians. I reached out to our foreign affairs minister to ask about it. Here’s what happened:
Cleveland continues to attack matchups and use drives to force the Pistons to help/rotate -Harden gets the switch vs. Robinson with an empty left side -Harden drives left and Duren helps -Cade works to split, Merrill relocates to the wing, Harden hits him for 3.

No one needs another Vaush. Cenk and Hasan are wrong. I like Hasan Piker as a podcaster. I do. I post him. You know. But I don’t agree on his praxis and voting for Democrats. I just don’t and I’m not going to. There’s a reason for this…and it’s because I’ve worked for 43 years.
This is Tina Peter's arrest. Why wasn't she charged with resisting arrest and assaulting a police officer?
1 of 2 @kim.senate.gov did you cut a deal w/ICE that led community members to break the line, allowing ICE vehicles to leave DH. It’s unclear if hunger strikers were in the vans. Earlier ICE tear gassed a🇺🇸citizen; Kim stood by approaching her later for a photo op. @nytimes.com @reuters.com
It’s time to talk about Brexit… Leaving the EU has harmed our economy significantly. By putting Britain back at the heart of Europe, Labour is tackling the cost of living crisis.
7 consecutive hitters have been walked just 2x in MLB since 1920. Pirates did it in 1983 in Atlanta the last time it happened. Bob Walk told a great story on the radio about talking to Jim Winn when both were in AAA Hawaii in 1984. Jim Bibby had started the game, & Winn had relieved: #LetsGoBucs

May is National Women’s Health Month - and food security is health care. SNAP helps feed 42 million Americans each month, while WIC supports millions of mothers and children. With federal cuts increasing, local support matters more than ever.
Jimmy Dore: "If you someone a fat Italian, that's not anti-Italian. If you call someone any other word, any other ethnicity, it's not anti-that. They have a special cutout for Jewish people, which is really suspicious."

7/ The drive to SPIEF conference has been made more interesting by Ukraine's intervention. So we know the port has been hit but also the refinery, the largest complex in NW Russia. The Governor reported 30 drones were shot down - does he mean intercepted by the refinery/port?
