I noticed today that the price of gas went down 5 cents since I last filled up in SK. (1.43 down from 1.48). This looks like a direct attack on Alberta. Disgusted and tired with the lies and manipulation of politics and corporations. ❤️ AB
@CNN Please give me more info about the beautiful symphony being played in your recent intermission showcasing Tokoyo’s cherry blossom season on the CNN Highlight of Japan’s cherry blossom season.
I’d loveto hear the entire symphony. Can you tell me the name of it please.
@NikkiHaley I’m not a Republican, nor even a US citizen but, I believe you are a woman of integrity who may someday become President.
Keep your dignity and respect by continuing to stay silent on any endorsements or support of trump.
I cannot tell you how wonderful it is to see my 96 yo former Trumper Dad watch @BarackObama speak. You have to remember, during both of Obama's terms Dad's only news was Fox. He never saw one complete speech by Obama. Never. He saw 10-second clips followed by awful rhetoric.
Seeing him watch Obama, smiling, giggling at his jokes, "Ummmhmmm-ing" to what he says ... it brings me back to the excitement of 2007-2008!
"I had no idea, none, that he was so good. Wow. He's just ... I can't believe I hated him. He's GREAT!"
Seeing Obama through his eyes is magical.

Unfortunately I can’t vote for
Kamala Harris in this election.
I can't because I'm in Scotland
and not a United States citizen.
However I am cheering her on
from across the pond and supporting
every single blue voter I can.

If trump is now a multi millionaire or a billionaire, not impressed. He got there by cheating workers of their full wages with yet another bankruptcy. A liar, fraud and selfish cheat.
It's wild to see a presidential candidate running on a massive middle class tax hike. Trump's tariff program is a tax hike, too, 20%-2000% on everything imported, which would cost the average family nearly $4000 a year.
Our daughters have so many great role models in their lives! Hard working and loving Moms. Aunties and Grandma’s who help raise them with love. Teachers, Sunday School teachers and loving fathers. And now, Kamala Harris too!
BREAKING: The former chief marketer for NBC apologizes to the American people for giving us Donald Trump by helping to sell “The Apprentice” myth to the American people.
This is humiliating for MAGA…
“I want to apologize to America. I helped create a monster,” writes John D. Miller in a piece entitled “We Created a Monster: Trump Was a TV Fantasy Invented for 'The Apprentice'” for U.S. News & World Report.
“For nearly 25 years, I led marketing at NBC and NBCUniversal,” Miller explains. “I led the team that marketed ‘The Apprentice,’ the reality show that made Donald Trump a household name outside of New York City, where he was better known for overextending his empire and appearing in celebrity gossip columns.”
He goes on to state that his team “created the narrative that Trump was a super-successful businessman who lived like royalty” which was a “substantial exaggeration” that “created a false narrative by making him seem more successful than he was.”
Miller points out that Trump had to declare bankruptcy four times before the show premiered and at least twice over the course of its 14 seasons.
“The imposing board room where he famously fired contestants was a set, because his real boardroom was too old and shabby for TV,” writers Miller.
In a section that is certain to bruise Trump’s ego, Miller states that he was the “perfect choice” for the show because “more successful CEOs were too busy to get involved in reality TV and didn’t want to hire random game show winners onto their executive teams.”
Meanwhile, Trump “had no such concerns” and “plenty of time for filming.”
“I never imagined that the picture we painted of Trump as a successful businessman would help catapult him to the White House,” writes Miller, likening all of their advertising around the show to “fake news” because it was so “highly exaggerated.”
“I discovered in my interactions with him over the years that he is manipulative, yet extraordinarily easy to manipulate,” he goes on. “He has an unfillable compliment hole. No amount is too much. Flatter him and he is compliant. World leaders, including apparently Russian strongman Vladimir Putin and North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, have discovered that too.”
Miller calls Trump “remarkably thin-skinned” and describes his adversarial relationship with the show. The future president would claim that the show was number one in the ratings, even when the numbers refuted that claim.
Not surprisingly, Trump was full of bad suggestions for the show. He wanted to make “a team of Black players compete against white players.” Miller tried to convince him against it by appealing to Trump’s greed and telling him that it would alienate sponsors.
“While we were successful in marketing ‘The Apprentice,’ we also did irreparable harm by creating the false image of Trump as a successful leader. I deeply regret that,” writers Miller. “And I regret that it has taken me so long to go public.”
“Now America is facing a critical choice. Should this elderly, would-be emperor with no clothes, who is well known for stretching and abandoning the truth, be president again?” he asks.
“I spent 50 years successfully promoting television magic, making mountains out of molehills every day,” he continues. “But I say now to my fellow Americans, without any promotional exaggeration: If you believe that Trump will be better for you or better for the country, that is an illusion, much like ‘The Apprentice’ was.”
“Even if you are a born-and-bred Republican, as I was, I strongly urge you to vote for Kamala Harris. The country will be better off and so will you,” concludes Miller.

If i get shit-canned on X, just know this: I enjoyed every single minute on this platform. It’s never felt like work, simply because it isn’t. This is my passion. From the time I enlisted in the Navy, my attitude has always been “I will always be free, or die fighting to be free.”
That has never changed. It’s less about a specific action, and more about being an attitude with which I move through life, in everything I do. I can’t tell you what attitude to have, but if you’re looking for one, I highly recommend this one.
I cherish each of you. While I’ve been fortunate enough for my account to reach some significance in size, what is that, if it’s not simply a meeting point for each of us, made up of each of YOU? Without each other, on social media, we are nothing. That includes me.
In the meantime, I’m angry. I am angered by what I am watching happen to this nation that is being led by Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump, sitting US Congressmen/women, and a collection of billionaires who all want one of the very few pieces of pie that will be available if Donald Trump is assumes power.
Notice, I didn’t say “elected,” because I’m convinced winning election isn’t something he believes he needs to do to assume control again.
We are fighting for Democracy…right now…and it must continue for as long as necessary.
