Spending a lot of time today getting ready for my big move this week. Packing isn't the most fun activity but it's a necessary evil. Thankfully this time it's just within the city so that will make it a little easier on me.

The reason Pete Hegseth issued illegal orders to “kill them all” is because they don’t want anyone finding out they killed innocent fishermen instead of drug traffickers. They don’t care who they kill.

Criminal charges against Police Officers are rare. We will have to let the evidence tell the tale, but it is quite something to see this happening. This is one to watch very closely. #YYC #Calgary www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZ62...

Oh no 😱 Is the media finally treating Trump, who is clearly in rapid decline, the way they treated Biden? It’s about fucking time! Who’s with me?

Ethnic frauds stir up so many terrible feelings in Indigenous folks, and I don't think the general public really understands this. The goal of the ongoing colonial project has been the erasure of Indigenous Peoples, meaning our identity and existence has been undermined from every direction.

Ah, the problem is not that we fail to provide everyone with adequate housing or services for people with addiction, the *real problem* is that the rest of us are forced to see the results of these things, under the label "social decay". Got it.

This is incredible

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey. This isn’t controversial. A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

The press secretary of Potus clarified that Potus does not want democratic members of Congress to be executed. Oh the times we live in.

Imagine the conversations that must have happened behind the scenes such that the Trump Administration felt the need to legitimize the usage of the swastika? They don't even pretend to be normal, anymore. This is a fascist government.

Michelle Rempel Garner has fallen so far. There was a time that she was presenting herself as a truly progressive conservative voice. After her disastrous association with Patrick Brown and aborted UCP Leadership run, she has been desperately trying to make herself relevant again. It's sad. #CDNpoli

I shouldn't have laughed at this. He's just such a horrible human being. I don't understand how anyone could possibly think he is anything more than an ignorant, hateful, ridiculous buffoon.

Wow!!!

If American Presidential politics were a Disney movie, it'd be The Lion King. Trump would be Scar, and the MAGA faithful would be the hyenas. Trump is now in the process of groggily waking up, and the hyenas are realizing their leader betrayed them. It's happening. www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9ma...

I used to think she was dumb. I think she just plays dumb on TV to get votes. She is just the first rat, one of the smarter rats, to notice the ship is sinking and get out while she can.

This new incarnation of Marjorie Taylor Greene is quite interesting. It will be interesting to see what she does next and in the coming years. Personally, I think she is running for the Republican nomination. #USPolitics

WTF

Budgets passed! Next step, the Cons rid our country of Poilievre!

Good god, they’ve *always* been like this 😡 The New York Times, January 19, 1859 www.nytimes.com/1859/01/19/a... [Reposted with alt-text]

MTG called Donald Trump a traitor. Live. This morning. Marj just took off the gloves. Shit is getting interesting.

Sad to learn that Bob Caudle passed away this week. I was not a kid who grew up watching NWA wrestling but I did get to see his work when online streaming became a thing. What a life he lived. May he rest in peace and may his memory be a blessing. #wRESTLESKY slamwrestling.net/news/iconic-...

#Canada good morning & welcome to budget day. It’s going to be tense. NDP votes last, they’ll know how many abstentions it takes & they don’t want an election. Miscalculation and stupidity can occur- brace yourself for anything but hope those 7 have the sense not to destroy their party with election

Oh, conservatives. Not the smartest bunch at times. This made me chuckle, actually, and I can sort of relate to having to make awkward calls. Fortunately, for me, I understand how phones work. It also shows how disinterested this MLA is in her constituents' feedback. #ABpoli #CDNpoli

This is the biggest breakup since Brad and Jennifer. It's cataclysmic within the Republican Party. #MarjorieTaylorGreene www.youtube.com/watch?v=snle...

Some people are being mean to Sophie over this, but I think she handled herself with grace. If she hasn't already, she will soon find new love as well. I wish her all the good things and success. Being a PM's spouse isn't an easy job and she deserves our thanks. #CDNpoli people.com/sophie-grego...

For defending Canada in a time of turmoil, Mark Carney is our pick for the most influential person of 2025. On October 16, the prime minister sat down for an exclusive interview with Malcolm Johnston, editor-in-chief of Toronto Life. youtu.be/baS6JD3wq7Y?...

Sometimes I feel like we are able to predict what will come in politics, but what I did not anticipate is seeing the Catholic Church come out so strong in this way. I have had so much anger and frustration with that Church, but... maybe they're really evolving? Powerful stuff.

Well, Donald Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene are now in a fight. The beautiful thing about contrarian people that hate everything is that they quite literally can't cooperate. These right-wingers are so steeped in conspiracies and bitterness. They can't actually function in a collaborative way.

First time listening and I fucking love this! So good!

Love to see this. These people are serving Canada during a truly tumultuous time full of global uncertainty. They deserve more than just our thanks. They deserve the tangible benefits of better pay. #CDNpoli

These days when you hear of a politician sexually harassing an employee you know that’s so relatively tame and vanilla it must be a Democrat.

Somewhat of a misleading headline. He fell due to complications around a heart condition. He didn't trip. #JohnFetterman www.mcall.com/2025/11/13/j...

We need more supporters and fewer critics of the (very) viable alternative to the UCP if we are going to change government in Alberta.

This ostrich thing illustrates that the 'culture wars' aren't so much about 'culture' as they are people who believe in science and democracy, and people who don't.

We are so fortunate as Canadians that someone with the international connections and expertise was willing to step up and serve as our Prime Minister. Look at what he's bringing to Canada. Thank you, @mark-carney.bsky.social. #CDNpoli www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Good! These people were subjected to disgusting abuse by the Trump Administration and ICE. Imagine being a nice, normal person that works hard and then having those psychopaths detain and cuff you and take you who knows where. TERRIFYING. #SouthKorea #ICE koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/2025-11...

Pennsylvania Democrats have to give their heads a shake. Surely there is someone in Pennsylvania that is a Democrat, alive, competent, and capable of doing the job. This guy is so obviously unwell, at this point, that he needs to be primaried and shown the door. #JohnFetterman

Alberta Making Measles Great Again! FREEDOM FRECKLES! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Good point.

Just watching #TheView interview US Senator John Fetterman. He is disjointed in his thinking and struggles to articulate much of anything with clarity. I know he has struggled with mental health and strokes. He shouldn't be a Senator in a serious state. Not a good situation. Wow. #USPolitics

Democrats need to show Chuck Schumer the door. He had a great run, but he is not the war-time leader the Democrats need in order to be effective in government. #USPolitics

This song is everywhere on my social media. And I kinda love it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuRY...

The fragility is astounding. If you're being triggered by Wheel of Fortune, you've completely lost the plot. #WheelOfFortune parade.com/news/wheel-o...

Sad news. I remember Sally Kirkland, oddly enough, as the mother of Mark and David Healey on the sitcom Roseanne. She was ferocious but I think she only appeared in maybe one or two episodes. I remember her in JFK, as well. A truly talented lady. variety.com/2025/film/ne...

I found myself wondering about Soldiers and Veterans saluting the Prime Minister. I looked at the regulations and a Prime Minister does receive a salute, but a Prime Minister does not salute in return. www.canada.ca/en/services/...
