This is interesting. Take a look at when mask mandates ended in the provinces, and the trend of hospitalizations for Covid-19 in Canada.

First up: Alberta and Saskatchewan, ending mask mandates Feb. 26 and Feb. 28, respectively. Mask mandates end just before the next wave. 1/6 Next, British Columbia. Mask mandates end March 11 2022. Right at the trough of the previous wave and at the beginning of the next. 2/6

Please explain to us, @VictorFedeli, how this policy helps make EVs more affordable for consumers? Answer: it doesn’t. #onpoli “critics say helping people buy EVs is a missing piece in the puzzle, and a big part of reaching the federal government’s requirement that all car and passenger truck sales be zero-emissions vehicles by 2035.”

Well, fuck YEAH. 🙄

Since @GOP raised the topic of "the Steele Dossier" again, I thought it might be a good time to take a trip down memory lane and review the contents of the Steele Dossier, as it first came to light during those long-ago days of - was it 2017? - so long ago! Let's go! 35 pages! Page 1 of the "Steele Dossier" as it was first released by BuzzFeed News in January 2017. (The yellow highlighting is original to the BuzzFeed copy.) Image

Although I tweeted multiple times that people should not take the bait about the veracity of the "TDG grabbed the wheel" story, let's review some facts. 1/16 Ornato was previously Deputy Assistant Director for the Secret Service. TDG elevated him to the position of Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations on December 17 2019. 2/16

Ms. Hutchinson has some impressive @GOP bona fides: assistant to Scalise, Cruz, then Meadows. I believe Chairman Thompson is establishing that Ms. Hutchinson was pretty damn high up in the White House hierarchy in these initial questions. TDG won’t be able to claim she “just fetched coffee from time to time”.

"Raffensperger: Well Mr. President, the challenge that you have is the data you have is wrong."

Ya gotta respect Brad Raffensperger for standing up to Trump. He ain't taking no shit-talk from the Donald.

washingtonpost.com/politics/trump… "Trump: And Brad, why did they put the votes in three times? You know, they put ‘em in three times.

Raffensperger: Mr. President, they did not put that. We did an audit of that and we proved conclusively that they were not scanned three times."

Trump is your crazy Uncle Donnie.

Y’all, read this.

I see two camps develop in the @GOP: one, a brave band of the very few, including Romney, Murkowski and Sasse. The other camp composed of grifters and conmen: Cruz, Rubio, Hawley. The remaining @SenateGOP members are a group of indecisive cowards waiting to ... ... see which way the wind blows.

In this year of plague and depression, the most powerful nation in human history has become a sad amalgam of laughingstock, cautionary tale and pariah. Roughly 170,000 Americans are dead, in large part due to a near-total abdication of federal leadership, theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl… ... a decades-long evisceration of the social safety net, and a health care and economic system built on a bedrock of racial and class discrimination.

What a powerful sentence this is.

If I understand this "WE Charity" non-scandal correctly, the @CPC_HQ is miffed that the Liberal govt. awarded the contract to administer the Canada Student Service Grant (CSSG) program as a sole-source contract, without reaching out to other organizations. Instead, they ... 1/n ... wanted the Federal Govt. to issue an RFQ to organizations who might be capable of administering the program. After the organizations responses to the RFQ were received, the Federal Govt. would short-list the best candidates and notify them they were selected for the RFP. 2/n

Media headlines: “Trump is the third president to be impeached.”

No, Trump is the *second* president to be *legitimately* impeached. The President Clinton impeachment was a farce.

1. The IC, Ken Starr, was appointed in August *1994* to investigate the Whitewater “scandal”. 1/n 2. Starr continued an investigation into Whitewater initially begun by Robert B. Fiske.
3. Responding to right-wing hysteria that the Clintons had one of their aides, Vince Foster, murdered, Starr expanded his investigation into the Foster suicide, continuing Fiske’s work. 2/n
