So let me get this straight:
When immigrants take jobs, it’s a national crisis.
When AI takes jobs, it’s innovation.
Can someone explain why we’re supposed to fear people willing to work, but celebrate technology designed to replace workers?
@PierrePoilievre Perks, Did you say perks ?
Like your driver, car allowance , living in a mansion, feeding your family with taxpayers dollars,
Your $ 8.8 million in expenses or the $2.3 million for your bi-election after we kicked you out ?
Your pension ?
Those kind of perks ?
ARSEHOLE !
“Has a nation ever been so befouled, beclowned and besmirched by someone charged with its care and leadership before? What was so broken in an obtuse third of the American personality that we allowed such an exceptionally awful man to rise to power?
It is no accident that as soon as Republicans began to mildly pushback on Trump, his first response was to immediately lash out at women. (In this week’s case it was again White House reporter and CNN anchor Kaitlin Collins). It’s a deranged form of self-soothing for the deeply flawed, misogynistic, sexual predator/president.
And once he got into office, how was it not plain for all to see that he was not merely a belligerent buffoon, but he was in fact using his power to enrich himself and his family while destroying the very fabric of our society and breaking through the moral barricades of our institutions to allow his criminal scrum of scoundrels to pillage and plunder?
To steal from the neediest among us to further line the greasy pockets of Palm Beach dilettantes and deadbeat debutantes. The sort of people a saner nation would mock mercilessly, or at the very least, invent new forms of sitcoms and comedy to satire.
Instead, these bejeweled weasels inveigle themselves further into the foundation of our society. Buying their way into our media, fashion and attention spans.
Trump himself is like a rabid muskrat chewing on the dining room table’s legs while a dysfunctional family sits down to a Thanksgiving dinner of cold duck and crow.”https://t.co/SfZgeT6SzH
The Nashville Zoo has launched a public campaign to block construction of a proposed 69,000-square-foot AI data center that would sit directly adjacent to habitats for endangered animals, including vulnerable clouded leopards.
Zoo officials warn that the facility’s constant noise, bright artificial lighting, and electrical hum could seriously disrupt animal behavior, stress levels, and long-established breeding programs. The zoo is home to more than 3,700 animals representing over 350 species and maintains one of the most important collections of rare and endangered wildlife in the United States.
This conflict highlights a growing backlash against the rapid expansion of data centers driven by the AI boom. These facilities require massive amounts of electricity and operate 24 hours a day, prompting communities nationwide to raise concerns about energy consumption, water use, noise pollution, and environmental impacts. Wildlife conservation groups are now joining the resistance.
More than 180,000 people have already signed a petition opposing the project.
The developer behind the data center states that it will use waterless cooling systems, meet all local noise regulations, and comply with environmental standards. However, zoo leaders argue that the location itself, immediately next to sensitive animal habitats, makes the project unacceptable regardless of technical mitigations.
The dispute underscores a broader challenge of the AI era: how to build the vast digital infrastructure needed for artificial intelligence without placing undue pressure on local communities, ecosystems, and wildlife.
PELLEY: “Paying the bribe to Trump broke our hearts, but they did it to get the sale through.”
GARCIA-NAVARRO: “Paramount denied those two things were linked.”
PELLEY: *laughs*
I think we just saw one of our first intentional smiles! 😍 My beautiful baby girl, there you are ❤️
It fills my heart with so much joy watching all your amazing progress. We’re slowly working on a thumbs up and thumbs down, and you’ve already mastered the high five like a pro! Another day, another beautiful milestone. I love you, Maya ❤️ forever and always
Five years ago, Salman, Madiha, Yumnah, and Talat Afzaal were killed in a brutal act of Islamophobic terror in London, Ontario.
We stand with their loved ones and the Muslim community across Canada who still live with the loss and the trauma of this tragedy.
It is our duty to match remembrance with responsibility. Through concrete actions, including new legislation to combat Islamophobia and hate in our communities, we will build a country where all Muslim Canadians can live their lives without fear.
When I fought for 5 years to make it mandatory for judges in Canada to take sexual assault law training, this is what I hoped for. All rape cases should be presided over w this level of awareness. An inspiring judge. Wish they were all like this.

Charlie Angus: There was a group of young Normandy students, and two young teenage girls read a poem in French to the commemoration ceremonies and to the immense field of the dead. And she said, "We are the children that you never had. We are the children of liberty."
And there wasn't a dry eye in the house, but I always remember because Charles Scott Brown, in his 90s, stood up. And he broke protocol, of course, and he said to those young girls, "Don't cry for any man in this field. They came to free you, and they would do it again if they were asked."
That's what we come from. That is [Canada's] legacy. Do you think that we're going to let the likes of Pete Hoekstra push us around, or Donald Trump and his predator government threaten us? That's what we represent.
