Danielle Smith needs to cheat to beat the NDP in Lethbridge.

Time to go to court.

Obama tonight on his Cheesecake Factory line: "They mobilized a whole of government response to that joke. Not to inflation, but to that joke. The White House even called the Secretary of the Treasury. This is the man who is in charge of the economy. The person who's supposed to be figuring out how to make your life more affordable. The guy who's supposed to be figuring out how to lower inflation. And reduce interest rates. They told him he should hold a press conference in front of the Cheesecake Factory."

The first one of you that says we need to build bridges, reach across the aisle and work with Republicans gets thrown into the fucking sun. Prosecute the criminal pedophiles destroying our country or get the hell out of the way.

Danielle Smith colluded with the separatists to help their petition.

Jeffrey Rath showed the receipts, and Smith just confirmed they're real.

The whole country should hear about this, & Albertans should kick her out of office.

Let me bring some clarity to this:

In June 2025, UCP Cabinet Minister tipped me off that Danielle Smith was actively collaborating with separatists on filing of a petition under soon to be custom drafted rules for them. This prompted me to preempt them under the existing rules.

AMERICANS, DO YOU KNOW WHO DONALD TRUMP IS WELCOMING INTO YOUR COUNTRY?

I am a Brazilian journalist, and I have been closely following the criminal investigations involving Flávio Bolsonaro, the son of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro.

Reuters reported on October 27 that Flávio left Brazil for the United States after losing the presidential election, despite a Brazilian Supreme Court order requiring him to surrender his passports.

Now I have a question:

Will American taxpayers be forced to pay for the protection of a Brazilian politician facing serious criminal investigations?

Before anyone screams “political persecution,” here are the actual case numbers. You can look them up yourselves.

1. BANCO MASTER, DARK HORSE AND SUSPECTED MONEY LAUNDERING

Brazilian Supreme Court (STF)

Case: INQ 5,070

Full docket: 0181367-57.2026.1.00.0000

Related proceedings: PET 16,369 and INQ 5,026.

Federal investigators are examining suspected money laundering, corruption and illegal international financial transactions involving the financing of Dark Horse, a film about Jair Bolsonaro.

The investigation involves financial dealings with Daniel Vorcaro, the former controller of Banco Master.

2. SUSPECTED FINANCIAL LINKS TO THE PCC DRUG-TRAFFICKING ORGANIZATION

Brazilian Superior Electoral Court (TSE)

Case: AIJE 0603371-06.2026.6.00.0000

Filed October 23, 2026.

This electoral lawsuit questions whether millions of dollars transferred through companies and investment funds linked to the Dark Horse financing network indirectly benefited Flávio Bolsonaro’s presidential campaign.

One company involved in the financial transactions was also identified in investigations concerning suspected money laundering connected to the PCC (Primeiro Comando da Capital), one of Brazil’s largest criminal organizations.

The lawsuit seeks the annulment of Bolsonaro’s candidacy or election certification and an eight-year disqualification.

To be absolutely clear: the alleged connection between the money and the PCC is under investigation. It has not been judicially established that the PCC financed the film or his campaign.

3. WILLER TOMAZ AND ONLINE GAMBLING

A separate investigation before Brazil’s Supreme Court, overseen by Justice Alexandre de Moraes, examines suspected money laundering involving attorney Willer Tomaz, a close friend of Flávio Bolsonaro.

Investigators are examining financial transactions involving gambling companies, payment platforms and businesses connected to Tomaz.

The exact court docket number has not been publicly verified.

4. THE RACHADINHA CORRUPTION CASE

Rio de Janeiro State Court (TJ-RJ)

Case: 0072696-34.2020.8.19.0000

Prosecutors formally accused Flávio Bolsonaro of crimes including embezzlement, money laundering and participation in a criminal organization involving alleged diversion of public employees’ salaries.

The charges were dismissed in 2022 after evidence was ruled inadmissible.

There was no conviction, but there was also no trial determining whether the alleged conduct occurred.

5. RODRIGO BACELLAR AND COMANDO VERMELHO

Brazilian Supreme Court

Case: PET 14,959

Full docket: 0123047-48.2025.1.00.0000

Rodrigo Bacellar, a political ally of Flávio Bolsonaro, was arrested and later became a criminal defendant in proceedings concerning alleged obstruction of a police operation targeting Comando Vermelho, another major Brazilian drug-trafficking organization.

6. MÁRCIO CANELLA AND ORGANIZED CRIME

Electoral case: RO-El 0601451-66.2026.6.19.0000

Another political ally supported by Flávio Bolsonaro, Márcio Canella, was arrested during an investigation into suspected organized-crime-related money laundering involving fuel businesses.

Brazilian electoral prosecutors have also questioned his candidacy over alleged connections to militias and Comando Vermelho.

These are separate proceedings involving Bolsonaro’s allies, not criminal charges against Flávio himself. 🧵

We requested an emergency debate Tuesday on a motion of non-confidence in Danielle Smith. Once again, the UCP dodged accountability.

But we already know Albertans have lost confidence in Danielle Smith and the UCP because they're distracted by infighting and culture wars.

We are focused on affordability, good jobs and better public services for all Albertans.

The UCP's report justifies gerrymandering by including equity for golf courses.

No.

For real.

To graft parts of Springbank into Calgary, they cite golf courses.

Because golf courses need representation more than voters.

BREAKING!!!

At Nenshi's presser on the UCP's Gerrymandering, it came out that the Ethics Commissioner has had to suspend his investigation into ministers accepting elite hockey tickets...

Because it overlaps with a CRIMINAL investigation!

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

Brazil’s Supreme Court has ordered an investigation into alleged election interference involving a donor network co-founded by JD Vance.

We translated the full 38-page court order, and it goes WAY beyond that.

And that’s where things get REALLY interesting...

After a thumping defeat in Calgary-Shaw and the $200 million referendum for her separatist friends, Danielle Smith knows Albertans have had enough of the UCP. That's why they're trying to rig the next election by gerrymandering the province.

We can't let them. We are fighting for fair elections.
