Republicans have introduced a federal ‘catch kit’ bill that would require women to sift thru their blood to separate pregnancy remains from “other solid waste,” put it in a “brightly colored” bag labeled “HUMAN FETAL REMAINS,” and bring their doc.
It’s fucking deranged

In 1845, Ireland’s potato crop failed. Then again the next year, and the year after that.
One million people died. Another million fled.
And all the while, ships kept leaving Irish ports loaded with food.
History hits harder when it’s told right. Paladin 📜

There is an active outbreak of avian flu (H5 influenza) in dairy herds in Washington State, particularly the Yakima Valley. A number of dairy workers have been infected, with at least one death. Speaking with workers, we believe the official case numbers are a vast undercount. 1/

This piece is for men. Every time I write about how men systemically abuse women, my DMs explode with “Not All Men” complaints.
But a new study goes one step further, and demonstrates that empirically, statistically, and factually, it literally is all men. And the data is horrifying. qasimrashid.com/p/russell-br…

Bock-Coté, lui-même un immigré en France, se fait répondre par une députée française dont les parents sont immigrants.
Il faut aussi écouter pour comprendre la hargne qui habite MBC et qui le fait sauter un fusible dès qu’on le contredit.
Ce gars-là n’est pas bien.

Jim Jordan: If that means prices go up for a short time, I think Americans understand and we can live with that.
Host: So, you’re saying we should be willing to live with higher prices?

As this story makes clear, he was saying the US faces bigger security risks in dealing with China than Canada does -- NOT that the US is a bigger security risk to Canada than China.
Willfully inaccurate versions spread by Trump fanboys to the contrary. theglobeandmail.com/politics…

This is disgusting.
A coked-up looking Donald Trump Jr. suggested Russell Brand was convicted because he became a conservative. Brand was sentenced Monday in London to 10 and a half years in prison for rape and sexual assault.

BIG SCOOP—@TheTyee reveals that Alberta is looking to adopt a US billing system for Alberta doctors
This would align AB with US, lock-in AB taxpayers & create the conditions for US private health (insurance) corporations to enter Canada

La France « moins raciste » que le Canada ? Le mensonge à 60 Minutes de Marine Le Pen
Non, Madame Le Pen, le Canada n'est pas plus raciste que la France, tel que vous l'affirmez.
Les études et les chiffres le démontrent.
« La France est le pays le moins raciste au monde, devant la Grande-Bretagne, les États-Unis et... le Canada. » – Marine Le Pen, dans 60 Minutes, CBS News.
Oui, vous avez bien lu.
Marine Le Pen, candidate de l'extrême droite en France – qui diabolise l'immigration, est en faveur de l'expulsion forcée d'immigrants non assimilés, et rejette toute la faute du chômage des immigrants sur leur propre personne – affirme qu'en France, il n'existe « aucune discrimination », surtout pas à l'emploi.
Plusieurs études scientifiques sérieuses démontrent qu'en fait, la France affiche l'un des pires taux de discrimination à l'embauche des pays développés.
Cette étude – vaste et détaillée – menée par la Northwestern University, en collaboration avec des chercheurs de l'Université d'Oslo et du Social Science Research Center de Berlin, datant de 2019, atteste de ceci :
La France affiche le taux de discrimination à l'embauche le plus élevé parmi les 9 pays d'Europe et d'Amérique du Nord analysés.
Le Canada a l'un des taux les plus faibles.
Conclusions de l'étude :
– La France arrive effectivement en tête du niveau de discrimination à l'embauche, suivie de près par la Suède.
En France, à compétences égales, un candidat issu de la majorité blanche reçoit près du double (environ 80 % à 90 % de plus) d'invitations à un entretien par rapport à un candidat issu d'une minorité visible.
Au Canada et aux États-Unis, les candidats blancs y reçoivent environ 25 % de rappels de plus que les minorités.
Marine Le Pen – condamnée pour détournement de fonds publics à une peine de trois ans de prison, dont un an ferme sous bracelet électronique – a-t-elle des leçons à donner à quiconque ? Surtout au Canada ?
