Sobering read about the very real effects of this ill considered Iran “war” #uspoli

Overall I agree with the sentiment, however I'm quite sure we don't want to be surfacing any Take Back Alberta content...

Screenshot of an X post by Dan Scavino reading, “Happening Now in the Oval Office at the @WhiteHouse. God Bless the USA!” with prayer, heart, U.S. flag, and eagle emojis. Below is a photo inside the Oval Office showing Donald Trump seated at the Resolute Desk while a large group of men in suits stand around him in a circle with heads bowed and hands extended in prayer. American flags, gold drapes, and framed portraits are visible in the room.

Reading this is fairly revolting, but necessary. #uspoli

Chart showing in many countries, people see their fellow citizens as morally good.

We asked people around the world to rate the morality and ethics of others in their country.

The U.S. is the only place we surveyed where more adults describe the morality and ethics of others living in the country as bad than good. See our full morality report here: www.pewresearch.org/...

US troops were told war on Iran was ‘all part of God’s divine plan’, watchdog alleges Religious freedom group says 200 troops sent complaints of superiors using extremist Christian rhetoric to justify war

Just in case anyone needed any more evidence that the USA administration has been taken over by Christian Nationalist extremists. #uspoli

Canada should get in on this. Well written piece. #uspoli #cdnpoli

Carney says his support for U.S. and Israel's war on Iran 'not a blank cheque' | CBC News Prime Minister Mark Carney says his support for U.S President Donald Trump's attack on Iran comes amid a "failure of the international order" and is "not a blank cheque."

FACT: Harper was PM for 10 yrs and didn’t get a pipeline built; Trudeau was PM for 10 yrs and he got a pipeline built. So all you fuck Trudeau morons can fuck right off you low IQ POS humans and the current UCP useless government running a deficit! #cdnpoli #abpoli

If only NDP were in charge for last 2 decades we’d have wealth like Norway. They copied our Heritage Fund except they didn’t use it all the time to bail themselves out of debt, like Alberta CONS did.
Our future generations will have nothing unless #UCPCorruption is gone very soon.

Tell us what we already know. Christian nationalist pedophile death cultists have taken over the USA government with the help of amoral tech billionaires. Sound familiar? I think we have a name for these people. #uspoli

Translation: I live in a state of constant humiliation due to my ineptitude, stupidity, and inability to be a good President. Oh - and we are running out of missiles and are over our head and have no idea what we are doing, so please help. #uspoli

Trump’s foreign policy has no rules The president's war with Iran proves that talk of a "Donroe Doctrine" was fiction

Another good piece outlining just how dangerous, amoral, feckless, and downright evil the current US administration is - led by the Orange Clown himself. #uspoli

PM Carney Walks A Geopolitical Livewire with Trump's Iran Conflict and India Trade News YouTube video by The Bill Kelly Podcast 🇨🇦

Here's a good nuanced discussion. And your retort not to listen to me because I don't post my full name (as the vast majority on here do not), is a very bad argument. As is appealing to your 'authority' by stating your credentials.

Government should protect people and regulate corporations, not protect corporations and regulate people.

The #UCP have now come after 2SLGBTQ+ people, teachers, disabled people (ADAP) & now immigrants!

We need a better government.
We need an election.

Translation: Stockpiles are dangerously low. Biden did a great job as President, and it made me feel stupid. Zelensky is a hero, widely respected, and that also makes me feel stupid. I don't know how to do the job of President, and am almost always confused. I'm also very stupid. And amoral. #uspoli

BULLSHIT: I can not listen to this but her body language says she is MAD and defiant because she is not winning this battle. The context is BULLSHIT the word most used in Alberta political circles. She is so incompetent. #ABleg #ABpoli #Cdnpoli

I would urge a very close and careful reading of the statement. One could read it as walking a very fine geopolitical line in its "support". It also explicitly urges civilian safety, and I don't think there's any basis for claiming Carney supports committing war crimes. #cdnpoli #uspoli

I completely understand the geopolitical realities that make this statement necessary, but I wish we lived in a world where we could openly disagree with this action without any consequences. I support Carney, but this makes me very sad. #cdnpoli #uspoli

Literally

Which is it, Pierre?

While Conservatives continue to pander and divide, we'll always stand up for Canada.

It's time for Albertans who vote conservative to admit that conservatives are not good at the economy
They are just good at sucking up to rich a$$holes

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

This is the Black Swan I Warned About. The government is waging war on evidence by legitimizing pseudoscience inside America's health institutions.

Important read on the deterioration of health guidance in the USA. I'd like to report more on Canadian items, but we cannot ignore that culturally we overlap with the States in way that affect us, especially in media - so this is important. Hopefully our CDN health guidance holds. #uspoli #cdnpoli

In 2025, Meta paid an effective federal tax rate of 3.5% — its lowest on record.

Meanwhile, Meta is pumping $65 million into elections this year to boost AI friendly candidates.

Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax, it's corrosive to democracy.

Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.
