A fun fact is that Hitler had his final freakout after hearing a radio broadcast detailing how joyful Italians spent a day spitting on Mussolini's body in a gutter.

Danielle Smith forecast a 5.2 billion deficit this year with oil pegged at $68. It's currently at $58, meaning another 7.5 billion potential shortfall. Look for more Ottawa bashing to distract Albertans, it's the tired and true tradition. #cdnpoli

Before the advent of modern antibiotics and vaccines, half of all children died. In broad strokes, half of all children had always died, everywhere. After the advent of modern antibiotics and vaccines, the death of a child became an unusual event in Western societies.

Some were stupid. But also, some were incredibly poorly informed, in a poisonous and predatory information environment. That's the ballgame.

Danielle Smith’s UCP government restores big money corporate donations to political parties

And a reminder — to the extent that this is about protecting the O&G industry (and it is): #ableg At $330 billion in 2025 dollars (adjusted for inflation), that’ll wipe out 60% of all royalties earned (based on Yager’s Mature Asset Strategy report). And that is certainly an underestimate.

A government under seven (7) different investigations for corruption just introduced a bill that would bring more corporate money into politics. This is not normal. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

A bit of a softer tone than the "list of demands" she presented Carney with when he initially became leader, imo. Still a crybaby temper tantrum though.

Carney commits to admitting his mistakes openly and to learning from them quickly. That could be a very big change from his predecessor... (Or anyone in politics, really). If, of course, he actually follows through with it.

Unfortunate bit of timing as Poilievre’s line that the Conservatives held the Liberals and NDP to too few seats to form a majority collation was delivered just as the ticker at the bottom of the screen showed their combined total moving to 172.

My final predictions: Liberals wind up around 180-190 seats. NDP hold a few key seats but lose official party status. Poilievre and Singh both out as leaders by the end of the week.

The FBI just arrested a Wisconsin circuit court judge for failing to assist ICE to its satisfaction in their kidnapping of a human being out of court custody and into a death camp. Any attempt to soften the reality of that statement is fascist propaganda.

How a man baselessly got called a pedophile by a stranger, flips them off, and is doxxed in major newspapers for doing so. Really great story that perfectly encapsulates a manufactured outrage machine that transports scapegoats from the grassroots far-right all the way to international news media.

Pierre Poilievre's closing argument includes repeated references to the work of Policy Horizons, a government group charged with identifying risks to Canada's future. His willingness to weaponize their work is a choice -- and a warning. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2025/04/25/o...

If the @washingtonpost.com wanted to set its credibility on fire, this is what it would do. ChatGPT cannibalized an actual reporter’s good work, turned it into a steaming pile of misinformation and then had the fucking nerve to slap the reporter’s name back on its bullshit.
