There is no radical left, if there ever was one. Haven't met any and I'm old.
All the crazed radicals are on the extreme right. Radical right. Often religious. Some of the rich ones are being, without question, outed as rapists.
Rich radical religious rapists.
So much harm, retribution.

Well that may help. The question is are there any technological developments that could lower costs? Because there are tech developments that are coming to row crop farming that will cut costs. R&D how can it be supported if not enough is being done

TLDR: Jeffrey Epstein possibly sent one of the young girls he groomed and abused an article written by James Dobson. Why? Because Dobson was telling women who were abused by their dads to forgive them, of course.

They are the distress signals of a city under siege. For weeks thousands of ordinary citizens…teachers, scientists, stay-at-home parents…have transformed themselves into an ever-moving shadow of the Trump administration’s Operation Metro Surge.

If you walk through the neighborhoods of south Minneapolis today you will hear a new soundtrack to city life. It is not the hum of traffic or the bass of passing cars. It is the shrieking of whistles and the rhythmic honking of horns. These are not random noises.

Canada Strong & Free Network Hey Dale, I’m Elie Cantin-Nantel, the lead content creator for the Canada Strong and Free Network. All the time, I confront politicians and legacy journalists on camera, publish the unedited truth, and reach hundreds of thousands of Canadians who are hungry for something other than government-approved talking points. Now the Canada Strong and Free Network wants to multiply that impact by identifying, training, and funding the next wave of independent conservative creators in every region of the country. But that costs money. Last year, Canada’s major political parties raised a combined $63.3 million. If independent journalists like me received even 10%, 5%, or just 1% of that, we could make an enormous difference. Cameras, training, travel expenses, stipends. Every dollar you give today helps us launch those new voices. Let’s build the independent media army Canada desperately needs.

The email subject line from the Formerly Known As Manning Centre says "Support the next generation of independent journalists."
This is not journalism. This is rage-bait content creation. There is a difference.

News report saying that many Palestinians lost their lives during this latest massacre.

They didn’t lose them.

They were killed.

Exxon's Own Models Predicted Global Warming--It Ignored Them Scientists working for the oil giant Exxon in the 1970s and 1980s estimated temperature increases with remarkable accuracy. Those findings could now be used as evidence in climate litigation

Warm air masses in the atmosphere rise upward, causing cooler air from neighboring areas, sometimes from the arctic, to rush in. This is how atmospheric heat powers storms. In other words, global warming causes colder, more intense winter storms. www.scientificamerican.com/article/exxo...

This is the winter of our rage. Bless the protesters in Minneapolis.

I wondered how Danielle Smith in her speech at CPC convention would handle her chumminess and accord with Mark Carney.
Simple. Don’t mention him, talk about Trudeau and Guilbeault, the historical villains.
And the crowd loved it. Repeated standing ovations.

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept."

Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

This one weird trick could stop US women from voting | Arwa Mahdawi The Save Act – which would do the opposite of its title – could have a huge impact on the midterm elections

The GOP blames women for undermining them on issues like abortion & ICE & thus hopes to pass the “SAVE Act,” which will make it harder for married women who changed their last names to vote. But they want you to think it’s about “election integrity”. 1/31/26 #HandmaidsTale 1/

Meet the new Pierre Poilievre, just like the old Pierre Poilievre In a speech that marked the start of Pierre Poilievre 2.0, the Conservative leader promised not to change.

"Ignore the voices who keep telling us to abandon our conservative principles," Poilievre said last night.

Never mind that many of those voices have actually been begging him to *return* to conservative principles. He ain't sorry, and he ain't changing.

Cannot forget Harper's muzzling of science & setting up today's health care disaster. Security clearance-free, trucker convoy donut man Poillivre. Meetings with far right EU politicians. Trump friendly. No.

I watched Premier Smith's speech at the CPC Convention. It was a blistering attack on Justin Trudeau. There was not a word about Mark Carney.

Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.”
