Trump's bombing of Iran serves no larger political or security purpose.
He just didn't want to look like a loser as he was goaded by the war criminal Netanyahu.
Canada must separate ourselves from the reckless violence of the gangster regime in Washington.

As 
@POTUS
 said β€” β€œif you spit, we hit.” Today 
@TheJusticeDept
 is charging an illegal alien with assault for allegedly spitting on a federal officer who was executing an arrest warrant.

The charge carries a maximum of 8 years in prison. 

Do not assault, obstruct, or otherwise impede our law enforcement officers. Plain and simple.

Now that Pam Bondi has legalized bribery, she's busy announcing felony spitting charges on Xitter.

This is the "rebellion" over which Trump has federalized CA's National Guard.

Felony spitting.

One of my favorite sermons was about this from a Methodist minister I knew. The message always stuck with me.

Alberta enters its book banning era Spare me the 'will someone please think of the children' claptrap.

NEW: Alberta’s government has appointed itself the arbiter of who can reach which books at which age.

Make no mistake about it, this will only lead to more censorship.

The govt survey has lots of loaded questions like β€œdo you approve of children having access to sexually explicit materials”, but they never ask for a definition of what that is. They just want a blank cheque to toss books in the furnace.

Alberta paid more than six times usual price for pain medications in $70-million import deal, according to government briefing note Briefing note indicates health authority could have reduced overall bill by ordering less medicine

And guess who profited.

Another reason we need a full public inquiry.

Don't ever claim to care about musicians if you still pay Spotify a monthly fee. TIDAL and Apple Music both have the same library and both pay musicians more.

Disappointing!

I don't understand why my indigenous brothers & sisters would do this to Bill 54.

I clearly said in a presser earlier today, they have rights under my Sovereignty within a Untied Canada act. I bestowed these treaty rights upon them!
