I will soon be introducing a bill to give the public a 50% ownership stake in the largest AI companies in America.

This would guarantee that the trillions created by AI are used to improve the lives of all of us — and block oligarch decisions that harm the American people.

ICE physically attacks lawyer—stand between her and clients they're trying to detain.

"Don't push me!" lawyer yells. "Why you trying to pick them up?"

"It's none of your business," agent scolds.

"It is my business—I'm their attorney," she replies. "It's EXACTLY my business!"

Immigration attorney Alicia Via Beeslev took this video after she received a call from a client that ICE was lying about having a warrant for arrest.

She drove to the scene and was able to chase them off the apartment complex property.

She wrote, "If you don't like the F word more than you don't like people getting kidnapped, you may not want to watch this video."

The incident occurred in Portland, Oregon.

This is NOT Trudeau hurting Canada
This is Smith IGNORING Alberta

Smith’s choices are hurting Albertans.

It has not snowed in Edmonton.

I wonder if this account even knows it’s a disingenuous photo. 🤨

[Alberta Medical Association (AMA) @Albertadoctors]

AMA Section of Pediatrics sent a letter to Minister of Education Nicolaides outlining concerns with the growing gap between children's needs in our classrooms and available classroom resources. https://t.co/sYbOq9B4By

I’m going to sleep tonight with a renewed confidence in Albertans, my long-time friends and new #ForeverCanadian troopers whom I met over the last 90 days. Friends, together we got this. Canada’s in safe hands.

Then, I get home, and my daughter is taking over the torch. Yes!!!

It amazes me every time people think the solution to a system problem is an individual choice.

Your boss is exploiting you? Get a new job.

Class sizes too big? Homeschool.

Rent is too high in your city? Move.

None of those solutions actually solve the problems.

[VisuallyBetter @Isuckatpicking]

The Alberta NDP built 169 new schools from 2015-19. They also completed 75 replacements and modernizations of existing schools.

From 2019 (UCP elected) to today they have built 28 new schools over 6 years.

The UCP doesn't believe in public education.

[Hon. Thomas A. Lukaszuk @LukaszukAB]

St. Albert students are organizing. Young Miss Lukaszuk is leading organizing.

Let’s support our students’ participation in democracy!

🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨

AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL HAS CONDEMNED THE ALBERTA GOVERNMENT’S USE OF NOTWITHSTANDING CLAUSE IN BILL 2

Secretary General states the province’s anti-strike legislation has disproportionately harmed the rights of women workers https://t.co/ut26dFP4DR #abed #ableg

@rroul1 And the 91,000 new students that Nicky keeps mentioning are not currently funded under the UCP weighted average funding formula!

[Morgan Laidler 🇨🇦 @MorganLaidler]

Parent with kids in school here.

I want properly compensated teachers that have good working conditions and appropriate class sizes.

I also want the government to bargain in good faith, not just force them back to work with bullshit legislation.

So there’s that I guess.

[JEeEnEnAA @jennAA2014]

My kid goes to a designated public school as our schools near home are full/capped. We pay $400/year in bussing. Somehow kids at private schools get this covered. Thanks UCP.

[Chris (Proud AB Motherfu*ker) @SkipIsChris]

Good morning. I'll get right to it.

You all need to be fucking mad as hell right now.

Because what Danielle Smith’s government is threatening to do in Alberta isn’t a negotiation tactic. It’s a constitutional crisis in the making.

A question for Alberta Farmers.

Did you get compensation for drought conditions from the AB government?

Fun fact, your Finannce Minister just received 1.6 million.

Is the UCP giving you a fair deal?

It's a fair question.

[Kim Mason @joyousimplicity]

@Karen83079126 @TheBreakdownAB She’s not taking into account the teachers who shouldn’t be part of the average, b/c they don’t have a home room. Such as Principals, VP, specialists like music teachers or French language teachers or gym teachers, or job sharing teachers. That’s how she gets her skewed ratio.
