I cannot stress this enough: you can’t dismiss ~70-80 million Trump voters as a monolith of rubes, idiots, racists, misogynists, homophobes, and fascists.

It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them. While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right.

So, Pathways Alliance just scrubbed its website and social feeds. What’s going on? @mikedesouza explains the backstory, including @ottawacarl’s dogged reporting on the oil and gas group’s claims and lobbying. #cdnpoli #greenwashing thenarwhal.ca/pathways-allia…

The feds finally answered my questions from April. They confirmed what the disability community has been telling us: the CDB, as proposed, contains nothing they called for, and will only lift 25,000 people - just 1.7% of people with disabilities living in poverty, out of poverty

1.6 million Canadians with disabilities live below the poverty line. New numbers released by the federal government say the Canada Disability Benefit will only lift about 25,000 adults out of poverty, despite promises made by a federal minister. cbc.ca/news/politics/….

Opinion | It's hard to be a fan of these university encampments. If I wanted to stop the war in Gaza — which, to be clear, I don't — I would protest in a more effective, undisclosed other way.

Hi #WNBATwitter, I created another guide to help you and your pals pick which WNBA team to support this year: no stats, just vibes. As the title suggests, it is incomplete & biased. (Thread, obvi)

You may well have the unusual situation of the Columbia student radio station being eligible for a Pulitzer Prize, administered by Columbia University, for the station’s coverage of how Columbia called the cops on Columbia students. (They’re doing an extraordinary job).

The new #disability benefit presented in last week’s federal budget is, by any measure, underwhelming: It offers a maximum of $200 monthly, and will be available to less than half of people living with disabilities and in poverty. By @picardonhealth theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

BREAKING: The FTC just banned non-compete agreements. The Federal Trade Commission has issued a final rule making it illegal for bosses to make workers sign noncompetes in any scenario, and voiding nearly all existing noncompetes. This is a game changer for American workers.
