In Canada, retired politicians face a strict cooling‑off period before they can work as lobbyists. At the federal level, the rule is five years, and it applies to former MPs, ministers, and other senior officials known as Designated Public Office Holders.

sounds like more corruption - this is another needed reform

If any empty beds existed, it’s bc the beds were empty bc the bodies were in the Covid morgue trucks, or the overflow patients were in the Covid tent hospitals. www.nytimes.com/2020/04/02/n...

They have been fighting for their life for years against Russia. They send brave firefighters to help France. We do not deserve the Ukrainians.

When is move is hand like that, you know its a big fucking lie.

Klobuchar: "More than six months after Renee and Alex's deaths when I asked Acting AG Blanche if the department would finally fully cooperate with state law enforcement in these investigations, he said 'it depends on what full cooperation means'...Minnesotans deserve transparency and accountability"

Republican megadonor Ronald Lauder has closed his checkbook for political donations. In this case it may be due to financial and family considerations, but the ROI for billionaires is gonna need examination.

Federal prosecutors just dropped charges against 3 MORE defendants who were falsely accused of damaging the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool www.cbsnews.com/news/lincoln...

That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

Americans are suffering all over the country and the orange felon is playing golf and congratulating himself on winning a tournament even though it’s well known that he always cheats at golf. I hate him.

This US resident has insurance and this is the bill he got for a single visit to the ER Canadians, we have so much to lose and nothing to gain from a two-tier system with private insurance like the Alberta gov is pushing

I realize the Europeans have largely gone to bed, but: I got bitten by a dog yesterday and had a bad reaction to it and ended up throwing up all night last night. My wife made me go to the emergency room; I've gotten IV fluids and an abdominal ultrasound. This is what I had to pay. I have insurance.

"new state laws and safety codes are reclassifying these plug-in kits as standard appliances — meaning renters can finally treat home solar like a simple toaster oven, plugging a personal power plant into any wall socket and cutting electricity bills by up to 25% with zero landlord approval."

Renters have been locked out of solar energy for years, and a tiny balcony device now "picking the lock" is spreading through 8 states

Todd Blanche's last-minute promise won over Senators Cornyn & Tillis, but shouldn't have. The "deal" leaves Trump's tax immunity intact. It confirms what the Senators should have already known about Blanche's lack of fitness to be AG. My analysis: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

The $1.776b Slush Fund Isn't As Dead As Senators Cornyn And Tillis Seem To Be Willing To Believe

Early COVID mitigations showed us the power of collective action. The environment began to heal. People with disabilities were accommodated. An entire flu strain was eradicated. Folks reconnected with their local communities. We worked together & saved lives.

Ah, the olden days.

I wonder if trump drained the reflecting pool to flood a nearby server room that contained video evidence of him obstructing justice.

A lot of people on this site are going to have major mental and emotional breakdowns after Abdul El-Sayed wins in Michigan.

This is Brady. He gets excited to wake up his bunny every morning. Promised he would be a responsible pet owner, and we think he's doing an excellent job. 13/10 (IG: goodboyscann)

Bluesky oldheads will remember that brief period of time when the conservative trolls tried to storm the place and were flummoxed by the idea they would have to organically grow an audience and that someone who didn't want to talk to them could nuke every interaction they ever had from orbit

Photo of the day today comes from Bailey Wilson in Winnipeg who spotted these geese trying to beat the heat! Hope you are staying as cool as they are in this weather!

I mean this in all seriousness, this is a severely mentally ill & delusional person who not only should be removed from office under the 25th amendment, but he should be in a psych ward. This is pure insanity on so many levels. He lives in a fantasy world. He is unwell & has lost touch with reality.

What will the media companies who are publishing stories that Blanche agreed to a “deal” with Cornyn & Tillis to kill the slush fund write when people start getting paid with our tax dollars & this whole thing is revealed as a sham? Since they aren’t writing how it’s a sham now.

NEW: Capital One closed hundreds of Trump accounts for money laundering. We wouldn’t have known if Trump hadn’t sued. Now he’s got tax immunity. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-capita...

NEW: Capital One Closed Hundreds of Trump Bank Accounts for Anti-Money Laundering Reasons

"A bottled water company, a winery, a golf course, a construction payroll firm, and a real estate brokerage, and hundreds of other businesses" were debanked. Trump claims it was for political reasons.

Trump promised vandals. He delivered tourists.

I once got into a Twitter spat with Rod Liddle during which he asked me if I'd ever read anything and I said I'd start with his obituary but I was lying. I will not be reading it, he isn't worth the time.
