Wasting away in Hellbertaville. It’s funny, I may seem like an angry person on the surface, but deep down I’m actually angrier.

However, following the announcement, many have started to point out that the 58-year-old is a strong ally of Israel and openly backs the country's decision to bomb the largely unarmed civilians of the Gaza Strip. While there is no known evidence to argue that she supported the one-sided attack on the Palestinian civilians, Machado is undoubtedly an ally of Benjamin Netanyahu. In the past, the centrist-right leader had even declared that if she gains power, she will restore diplomatic relations with Israel.
In 2020, the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize winner's party, Vente Venezuela, signed a cooperation agreement with Likud to cooperate on "political, ideological and social issues ... strategy, geopolitics and security." For the unversed, Likud - National Liberal Movement is the right-wing Israeli political party whose chairperson is Benjamin Netanyahu. "The struggle of Venezuela is the struggle of Israel," she had said on X in 2019. There is a claim that in 2018 Machado sent a letter to Netanyahu asking for the use of "power" (possibly including military intervention) against the Venezuelan government. She had
Wow! Interesting
Nothing to see here for sure
You gotta think that Mr Nobel would probably be a little peeved that his peace prize is being given mostly to mass murderers and their supporters

👀 Breaking the ATA and making membership in the union optional for teachers are actual official UCP policies that were enthusiastically passed by delegates at the party’s convention last year in Red Deer.

Our choices for mayor in this Calgary municipal election all fuckin blow. Normally I’ve already done the advance vote and been done with it.
This year I’m pretty close to voting Larry Heather just for the lolz.

Same as it ever was.
PMJT was 'not so bad' compared to this.
Minority government with NDP holding sway was a bonus.
WOW!
Alberta just got another approved referendum petition!
And this one calls for the practice of funding private schools with public money to be put to an end!
During the teachers strike!
Strap in Alberta, we’re going on a ride!

The reviews are coming in on the UCP's American lesson plans they're offering parents while teachers are on strike...
From this Grade 1 teacher, not only do they not align with the UCP's curriculum...
They aren't even based in what most Grade 1 kids can do.

Alberta's per student funding is the lowest in Canada. A whopping 27% less than PEI.
But it's even worse than that...
“If a new pipeline promised to be really profitable and had a really strong business case, there would be a private sector proposal in development and this point.”
Janetta McKenzie tells BNN Bloomberg why a new pipeline is bad for taxpayers and the climate.
I really hope one of the big things we all take from this is that the cops and feds lie through their teeth and the mainstream news prints those lies as truth. Keep that in mind for the future.

NEW inside CBS—
Staff are insulted executives will spend $150 million to buy The Free Press & make self-proclaimed “Zionist fanatic” Bari Weiss Editor-in-Chief, while many of them are set to be laid off.
“If I wrote 90 percent of what’s on The Free Press, I would get flagged and fired,” one says.

I'm supposed to support a (presumedly) taxpayer funded pipeline from @naheednenshi.bsky.social because he's not a monster on as many other issues as #DanielleSmith.

On one hand, the inevitable AI bubble burst will crater computer parts prices, and we'll be able to grab graphics cards from dead data centers for pennies on the dollar.
On the other, it's 17x larger than the dotcom bubble, and according to Deutsche Bank, the only thing propping up the US economy.

As Danielle Smith spends $14 million of taxpayers money on a pipeline with no business case…

RStar was hugely unpopular with Albertans, so @ABDanielleSmith brought it back with a different name, the Mature Asset Strategy.
Just another name for having taxpayers fund oil and gas well cleanup.

There is no Saskatchewan potash or uranium or O&G, it is Canada's potash, uranium and O&G.
There is no Alberta O&G, it is Canadian O&G.
And exactly what pipeline are they talking about?
There is no private $ support for a new pipeline.
Political theatre.

This piece about @nenshi raised plenty of hackles, as I knew it would.
But consider this: it's not my job to cheerlead for politicians.
Nenshi's energy positions are very weak. He's had plenty of time to remedy that.
Someone has to say it.
