I have been seeing lots of headlines like this. How the Iran war might be good for the UCP and Alberta.

Here’s a clip of Trump’s nominee to replace Kristi Noem. Markwayne Mullin is another Republican clown.

I wonder if all those Con elites who paid $1000 for the privilege of endorsing PP as their leader are reconsidering their expenditure. So much for his "change of tone" they kept babbling about.

I live in Calgary, but I sent an email to Tim Houston protesting the cuts to programs for people with special needs and cutting the arts. The first is plain mean and the second is short-sighted economically. These cuts are something Danielle would do for the same reasons.

THE ART OF THE FOOL Donald Trump, the man who bankrupted casinos, a business where people literally walk in and hand you money, has just pulled off the most spectacular act of economic self harm in American history.

Because his tariff policies were working so well, the 79 year old just gave the rest of the world the OK to de-invest in the USA. The DonRoe doctrine just became the launch for the big 'R'.. recession.

Today should be your 38th birthday..
When you lose your son you lose more than a child you lose a piece of your heart and your joy. Life is forever altered, and nothing can ever fill that space. Yet in my soul, he remains, my precious boy, forever loved. His laughter, his smile, and his love are woven into who I am. My love for him will never fade. Yor are my pride and my joy - you've made a change that cannot be broken..

Our house is one of the fortunate few suburban neighbourhoods that is walkable for services of all kinds and has easy access to mass transit. More Calgary neighbourhoods should have been built like this.

Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran.

No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles.

Worth a watch.
