French-language leaders’ debate live: Greens disinvited to federal faceoff; Rebel news wins fight to send five reporters as other outlets limited to one
Watch tonight’s debate here with real-time commentary from across the Star’s newsroom.
Ahead of this evening's critical — and chaotic — Canadian election leaders' debate, the debate commission has given right-wing conspiracy news outlet Rebel News *five times* as many spots for its (fake) journalists as actual news outlets. www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

Because they’re Black, they must be looting? This isn’t an honest mistake.
Spread truth, not lies: These folks weren’t looters. This footage is from KTLA, where the homeowner explained that her brothers & friends were helping her move belongings out of her burned house.

somebody in my neighborhood of tiny little prewar homes bought a cybertruck. I've seen it drive by almost every day for a week. my very offline neighbor had mentioned he thought it "looked neat" but when I told him it costs $100,000 he got so visibly annoyed he ripped off his winter hat

FWIW:
The DOJ has moved to dismiss the classified documents case only against Trump.
The prosecution of his co-defendants, Walt Nauta and Carlos de Oliveira, will continue because “no principle of temporary immunity applies to them.”

Trump alone didn't beat the justice system.
He had help.
It took Oligarchs relentlessly amplifying his lies on their media platforms.
Ethically compromised members of the Supreme Court.
70+ million willing to vote for a convicted felon.
There's a lot to fix. But it can be fixed. It must.

NEW: Judge Tanya Chutkan dismissed the charges against Trump in the DC election subversion case without prejudice. This allows the Justice Department to refile charges once Trump is out of office.

Key takeaways:
- the government's position on the merits of the prosecution has not changed.
- the Department's Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) was consulted on DOJ policy and constitutional questions re: prosecuting a sitting president. Their interpretation is binding.

Scenario 1: Jack does not resign. A symbolic but ineffective defiance. Gets fired on day 1 of the incoming administration. His SC report get editorialized and/or buried.
Scenario 2: Jack resigns. Finishes his report summarizing the investigations. Garland makes it public.
It's scenario 2.

There is no way to spin it. It's a dark day for justice.
Even if this DOJ had somehow ignored its own policy and the resultant constitutional chaos by continuing its prosecution of a now elected President, his incoming AG would have immediately dropped all charges.
The DOJ ran out of time.

Hey you, buy the precut fruit and veggies, no, I know it’s not cheaper, I can read, but you’re not going to go home and cut them and put them away like you said. You’re actually going to NOT eat them if they’re not pre-cut so you’re actually wasting money. You are welcome, I love you too.

Next time you're applying for a job, tell your prospective employer you'd prefer they not do a background check.

Trump Judge Blocks Overtime Pay For 4 Million Workers
The overtime rule is one of the most far-reaching economic reforms that President Joe Biden has fought for.
President Biden tried to raise the overtime threshold, which is the point where salaried workers are entitled to earn overtime pay. It would have helped millions. A Trump appointed judge in Texas just blocked it.
Please tell me you see which party is actually fighting for the average worker.

Would you look at that. Threads is scared of bluesky so now it's implementing features from bluesky.
