CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

Goddamit. Every now and again FB throws me a reminder that I could once make art and I need to find the time again.

I need to quit my day job lbh.

‘Shameless’: How the Alberta Next Panel Blamed Immigrants | The Tyee Divisive scapegoating, including showing a slanted video, fits the populist playbook, says an expert.

Blaming immigrants is not new in Alberta. My latest for The Tyee.

Every time this man comes on air, I change the channel, he’s a selfish fool and it’s saddening to know that he’s part of the swamp and he’s pulling you under. Something as basic as medical care shouldn’t even be on the table as being dispensable.

weiss is a coyote, one more added to the pack. She speaks of a topic which she has no clue about, and ignorance is not an excuse. Perhaps she is just playing the game, in any case ppl listen to her bullshit and she knows it. Another enabler.

Sometimes I just can’t fathom how Canada and the US can be so similar and yet have such profound differences.

Great turnouts

Making a drama about refugees could defuse anti-migrant anger in UK, says Jonathan Pryce Actor says ‘people aren’t aware of the facts’ and the realities for people living in migrant hotels A compelling drama about refugees living in Britain could be one way to defuse the rising anger and anti-migrant sentiment in the UK, according to the award-winning actor Jonathan Pryce, who said great TV or film could “open up” the issue. Pryce told the Guardian that at present the British public has no idea about the day-to-day realities for people living in migrant hotels. Continue reading...

Making a drama about refugees could defuse anti-migrant anger in UK, says Jonathan Pryce

Yep. I think we all know that, on some level, just don’t want to admit it, nor look too hard to figure out who is doing what. Fair to say though, the present Trump admin are evil po 💩 and in a way, they’re legitimizing a kind of nationalism that’s destroying entire countries.

Might be workable idea.

She’s the judge who ruled to prevent the feds from getting access to voters info. Trumps revenge.

Basic question: why was this mostly accepted and ignored not just by by media, but by so many people? The story wasn’t mainstream, why not, why does media not care?

That man is a twat.

Yes, you’re right, some just don’t get it, don’t want to. Racism, rage is everywhere. Most Canadians have decent grasp of world events, sometimes with family ties in US. I’m in Alberta and Smith is also a manipulative liar, her party has supporters, so threats must be taken seriously.

Like everything else Trump admin does, there’s no logic, no explanation, no obvious reason. Mental illness and unappeasable greed and ambition.

Nicely done. Will share.

Wow. Is Trump not the only one?

General strike needed, and get help to organize protests via unions. They have experience in nonviolent protests.
Immigrants, nonwhites are targets. White ppl have to push and help make change happen: will ICE agents assault white women with young white kids, if so, will Fox pay attention?

We have the province of Alberta in Canada, and its Premier Smith would like to separate, become the 51st state. We see the danger. I think we have a far better grasp of what is happening in US than citizens actually do, because of Trump’s spin-off effect. He excels at lying, your ppl accept it.

Smith is doing a Trump scam: tell ppl they’re hard done by, it’s the fault of feds & immigrants, oil & gas income is being suppressed, separate & be free. Reality: with separation, with roads, schools, healthcare, police, pension, local govt, who organizes & PAYS FOR IT? What do other provinces say?

Rob Reiner: White House pressure on media is ‘beyond McCarthy era-esque’ From the cancellation of Stephen Colbert, to the preemption of Jimmy Kimmel and the postponing of Jessica Chastain’s new series, President Trump’s administration is using politics to squeeze Hollywood. Acclaimed filmmaker Rob Reiner calls the current climate “beyond McCarthy era-esque” and warns Ali Velshi, “This is just the beginning.” He says his colleagues need to speak up: “Our job now, as communicators, is to start communicating to the rest of the country.”

“Our job now, as communicators, is to start communicating to the rest of the country," acclaimed filmmaker Rob Reiner says of intensifying political pressure on the entertainment world. He warns the Trump administration's fear tactics are "just the beginning." #Velshi

How do you communicate? So many ppl just don’t believe it, don’t want to know, can’t get organized. When white ppl are directly negatively affected, you may see normalcy coming back. Im a white female canadian, quite aware that although there are aholes everywhere, I’m insulated from a lot of bad.

Anticipating the next move is a good thing. Vance is VP but will he actually take reins?

Indeed, the last one was the Reaper and Trump is nuts but he isnt capable of creating that video. Nor this one. He’s too stupid and faculties aren’t functioning.
