Nenshi and the Alberta NDP have just made what appears to be one of their first campaign promises!

Not only will they never use the notwithstanding clause, they’ll pursue legislation to make sure future governments don’t use it unless as a last resort.

For the last several months, I’ve been using a Thinkpad T480s i7 running omarchy that I bought for $180 on eBay. This is a better machine and software experience than my 2024 MacBook Pro with 64gb of ram running Monterrey.

California Sen. Alex Padilla was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference and handcuffed.

"I am Senator Alex Padilla. I have questions for the secretary."

Video from @Elex_Michaelson on X via Padilla's staff.

Wikipedia definition of "idiot plot": In literary criticism, an idiot plot is one which is "kept in motion solely by virtue of the fact that everybody involved is an idiot",[1]:β€Š26β€Š and where the story would quickly end, or possibly not even happen, if this were not the case.

In 1992, my grandparents gave me and my sister the commemorative book for Canada’s 125 year celebration, a quarter for each province and territory. We ripped them open and went and got slurpees.

@ianhanomansing.bsky.social, @davidwcochrane.bsky.social the Government of Alberta is selling out, and destroying our democracy tonight. We could use some help, and some national reporters on this! #CdnPoli #AbPoli

Imagine a Chinese or Russian leader saying this about the USA. But it's worse - because we have bled and died next to each other for the cause of freedom. You MAGA people have no idea how much damage is being done daily.

"Tariffs!"
market goes down

"No tariffs!"
market goes up

Is this making sense yet?

Will the US ever beat us again? I doubt it.

There Is No Method to Trump’s Madness. He’s Simply Insane. His defenders try to apply reason to his erratic, nonsensical decisions. That’s a fool’s errandβ€”but fools abound in this administration.

Journalists are trying to understand Trump’s irrational behavior, and are generally unwilling to consider the possibility that it's not some grand strategy, but a madman with increasingly diminished mental faculties.

Trump’s Lust for Canada Echoes Putin’s Lust for Ukraine Expansionist rhetoric, economic grievance, and fantasies of erasing an β€œartificial” border.

"'When you take away that artificial line . . . and you look at that beautiful formation of Canada and the United States, there is no place anywhere in the world that looks like that,' Trump boasted. 'Plus Greenland' Musk added."

Know who they sound like?
