NEW PINNED POST.

The mechanisms laid out here apply to the UK, USA, and Canada. The disinformation is real, coordinated, and the road to fascism.

We got 15 cm's of snow last night. I walked outside this morning to clean the car off and go to work, ate shit down the front stairs, and went back inside to work from home.

Oh, I also booked a vacation to Mexico in April.

Yeah, it pissed me off that much.

I'm confused... Is this person admitting there is something wrong with being a Trump syncophant. That being called "Maple MAGA" is actually an insult?
Matt Beaton Just now. Literally EVERYONE in Canada who hasn't fiqured it out yet and still consumes state-owned media calls both Pierre Poilievre and Danielle Smith the 'Canadian Trump. Of course, this has no basis in reality and NONE of them came to this conclusion themselves, this opinion was fabricated and given to them by the media they consume, they're merely parroting what they heard someone else say This is what is known as mass formation psychosis and when they see a post like this that challenges the narrative they've consumed, most will not even consider that maybe they've been fooled, no matter how bad things get On the contrary, pride and ego make them double down on their stance, refusing to believe we are trying to help them and show them the truth and instead hating anyone who exposes the charade they've bought into. Any attempt to help them is seen as an attack from an enemy. #staycentralmyfriends Trz

November 20, 2025 Premier Danielle Smith premier@gov.ab.ca Legislature Building Unit 307-10800 97"h Avenue NW Edmonton AB T5K 2B6 Dear Premier Smith, Ne write to you today as the Bishops of the Anglican Diocese of Edmonton and the Lutherar Synod of Alberta and the Territories and as the Moderator of the United Church of Canada. We are spiritual leaders entrusted with the care of congregations, communities, and---most importantly--people. Many of those in our care are transgender Albertans, their families, and those who love and support them. We write this letter on the Trans Day of Remembrance, a day when we remember the lives of transgender people who have been lost to violence, hatred, and neglect. It is a day when communities recommit to the sacred work of protecting those most vulnerable among us. We are compelled by faith, conscience, and pastoral 1responsibility to speak against your government's lecision to invoke the notwithstanding clause to restrict the rights and freedoms of transgende people in Alberta `hristians believe every person is created in the image of God. This belief is lived out throug, ustice, compassion, and the unwavering affirmation of human dignity. Policies that diminish the ives or limit the rights of transgender people stand in direct opposition to this calling As bishops, we also hold a particular responsibility to stand with those who are vulnerable Transgender people specially youth- already face disproportionate levels of discrimination., exclusion, and violence. They need allies, not additional barriers. They need care, not political maneuvers that place their safety and identity up for debate. Invoking the notwithstanding clause in this context disregards the very protections that allow marginalized people to live freely and without fear, It undermines the integrity of our social fabric and the moral commitments we share as Albertans lesus consistently called his followers to protect and uplift those at risk. The Gospel co… and the organizations who sunport them. We ask vou to lead in a way that reflects the best of our rovince's values: respect for human dignity, commitment to justice, and the conviction that every person deserves to live in safety and hone We remain committed to walking alongside transgender people and advocating for policies that protect their rights, afirm their dignity, and support their flourishing. We pray that your government will choose a path that upholds these same principles. Respectfully, B saep Tichysshmumund The Rev. Bishop Trish Schmermund Svnod of Alberta and the Territories Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada TERRITORIES Stacer Soude The Right Reverend Stephen London Bishop of the Diocese of Edmonton Anglican Church of Canada The Right Rev.

For the UK to go so far alt right on immigration and asylum is the epitome of hypocrisy after they spent centuries illegally immigrating to and colonizing lands which did not belong to them.

And for Labour, with a knighted human rights lawyer as PM, to do this is absolutely evil and absurd.

The letter in which a UCP MLA refers to a recall campaign as "politically motivated" while ignoring the entire mechanism of electing and recalling a politician is at its core, "politically motivated".

Nicolaides is desperate and scared.

#Alberta #abpoli
Screenshot of an e-mail. It reads: Dear Friends and Neighbours, I am writing to you today with an urgent request for help. As you may be aware, a politically-motivated recall campaign has been launched against me. This recall has nothing to do about me, but instead is part of a coordinated attempt to topple our government. I was elected on a clear mandate, and this recall effort seeks to overturn the democratic decision made by the voters. I believe I have been an unwavering voice for our constituents, focusing tirelessly on getting results, not playing political games. We cannot allow this effort, supported by outside interests, to destabilize our community’s representation and waste taxpayer resources. I am fighting back and I need your help immediately. Our defense depends on your direct involvement. The process to defeat this recall requires a swift, organized, and robust response, and we need to defend the mandate you gave. ⚠️ OUR MOST CRITICAL NEED: SIGN UP TO VOLUNTEER ⚠️ This is the single most important and impactful action you can take right now. I urgently need committed volunteers to assist with essential organizational efforts, including crucial signature verification, data entry, and phone banking to rally support. Your time and energy are our most valuable resources in this fight. Action: Click here to sign up as a volunteer today and fill in the form on the main page. Our opponents are counting on us to be complacent. Let’s prove them wrong. This fight is about more than one MLA; it’s about protecting our democratic process and ensuring our community’s voice is heard above the political fray. Thank you for standing with us. We will win this with your help. Sincerely, Demetrios Nicolaides

There it is. Obviously being a rapist pedophile is the absolute worst of his crimes, but the real meat of the Epstein files will show how much Trump has been a Russian asset for decades.

The sex stuff is bad enough, but there's more in these files than just that

Newly released emails show the late convicted sex offender’s extensive network of foreign contacts, whom he corresponded with about Trump’s policy decisions.
