I'm increasingly convinced Trump's inner circle is giving him busy work (the White House ballroom, Kennedy Center, presidential plaques, gold decorations, etc.) while they essentially run the government. He admits that he doesn't even know who he is pardoning anymore.
Trump announces an "unprecedented four-day athletic event" with "one young man and one young woman from each state and territory"

He's done so by ignoring long-term costs, the precedent it sets federally and the very real risk to frontline communities. I find it irresponsible and I'm hoping through this back and forth that the full story (and its impacts) behind this political betrayal can be brough to light.
Did someone say MOU? Reading between the lines of Mark Carney’s plan to build an oil pipeline from Alberta to the BC coast - Greenpeace Canada
The Carney government's MOU with the Government of Alberta to build a new tar sands pipeline rolls back key climate policies and attacks Indigenous rights.

Massie: Previous presidents told us to go to war over WMDs that did not exist. Now it's the same playbook. Except we're told that drugs are the WMDs. If it were about drugs, we'd bomb Mexico or China or Colombia. This is about oil and regime change.

The thing about online hate is that it goes offline & is dangerous. In my case, it would often start with clip of Conservative politician making a personal attack in Question Period, rage farming outlets would promote, bots & trolls pile on, algorithms amplify.
