Heroic WW2 veteran breaks down in an interview:
"The things we fought for, died for, have all gone down the drain. Our country's going to hell in a hand basket."
"We haven't got the country we had when I was growing up."
Misinformation Decided the US Election https://t.co/ijIyQmCSDh
"Polling data show that Donald Trump’s supporters were deeply misinformed about most of the campaign’s defining issues."
"If the answer is that more than half of the electorate wants to be misinformed, America – and indeed human civilization – is in serious trouble."

I saw something last might about this. How MAGAs are no longer gloating about "liberal tears" because liberals aren't crying.
The first time was a shock.
The second time everyone knew exactly what they were doing.
So liberals see this, rightly, as an assault on American values and the futures of their children and grandchildren.
They're not crying, they're cutting fascists out of their lives because now they've got to deal with the world the trolls made.
And so the trolls are all stuck with one another now, but the problem is their primary motivation was gloating over the Liberal Tears. So they're out of steam. And the MAGAs actually fucking hate *each other* too, so I'm the absence of snowflake tears they're quickly going to turn on one another.
When you elect fascism in my country you have told me who you are. You are full of hatred for the most vulnerable people in our society. You don't care about the environment or public health or education or human rights or the rule of law.
Fine, but we don't owe you a second more of our lives so you can feel better reveling in our sadness. We've gotta deal with the shitshow you've brought to our shores, so suck it up, buttercups.
Watch this man BRILLIANTLY explain why Donald Trump's tariffs plan will be a complete DISASTER for hard-working Americans.
🚨This is EXCELLENT.

UCP to Teachers 2021: AIMCo is vastly superior to ATRF and we are taking your pensions and giving it to them.
UCP to Albertan's 2023: AIMCo is vastly superior to CPP and we'll be taking your pensions to them.
UCP 2024: AimCo is vastly incompetent and we need to fire them all.
If you've never questioned Stephen Harper's morals and judgment, just remember that he recently endorsed the uncouth festering carbuncle you see on the right. 👇
Didn't you, @stephenharper?

How do fascists derail democracy? If you study history (or read Project 2025), it’s almost like there’s a recipe book: goose the economy, abolish unions, privatize what’s public, win the support of tycoons. But at what cost? Mesmerize your base so they don’t care. Blind them with your fear-mongering, lies, and promises. Fascism needs a bold leader…the only one who can fix things…a dictator who has the vision and expects others to follow (including women…whether they like it or not).
I believe that history is indeed speaking to us — and those who refuse to learn from it are doomed to repeat it. To learn how fascism hijacked Germany a century ago, just watch this five-minute clip. If you care about our democracy and love our country, it’s hard to stop watching.
This is an excerpt from my hourlong public television special “The Story of Fascism in Europe,” which is streaming free (and ad-free) at https://t.co/YA10kVH0V8. When I produced it back in 2018, I hoped this day would never come in our country. But November 5th is upon us.
Please share this with anyone in your life who might need a reminder that the stakes are high…and this is very real.
Focusing on climate change/emissions when talking energy transition in Alberta is a losing battle.
Instead, talk about electric technologies displacing hydrocarbons and disrupting the oil and gas business model.
Its technology change + markets, smart folks.

🚨 BREAKING: The New York Times just dropped a full-page editorial with one message—"Vote to End the Trump Era."
They're not holding back, laying out exactly how Trump’s attacks on democracy, obsession with power, and disregard for the truth make him unfit to lead.
If he's re-elected, they warn, it’s game over for rights, justice, and the environment. America deserves better.
Time to make it count.
FOIP Preview!
Ok, remember when Smith's office claimed to the globe & mail that her Skybox Sojourn to Vancouver was on personal time and all people paid their own way?
We've already demonstrated that was a lie, but it turns out it was a bigger lie!
