Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

James: The day after that zirconium-crowned king was installed in Washington, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith—at a meeting orchestrated by Kevin O’Leary, a man so prostrate at the altar of mammon he’d sell coal to the devil if it fattened his wallet—was down there stroking the lizard of Mar-a-Lago.

🚨 #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid
Please contact your 2 senators and 1 representative in Congress. Tell them that we will not get over losing Medicaid. Medicaid is literally life jacket for so many of us.
Call 202-224-3121
Or use 5calls.org
Ask everyone you know to do so as well.

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

Well said, true statesman. Not like the idiot we have here in Ontario. Can't understand why he keeps getting elected. No one I know admits to voting for him. We need more Wabs in this country. Carney is surprising me as well, seems we made the right choice with him as well.

Incredibly powerful.
So many First Nations from all across Alberta gathered today at the legislature with one clear message for the UCP: respect our treaties.
No one here wants your separatist agenda, Premier.
Kill Bill 54.
And as one chief said today, if you don't like it here, you can leave.

The Liberals' fourth straight win, the collapse of Poilievre’s surge, and why Carney’s steady hand at the G7 may be the first real hope in a long time.

One thing that I was thought was revealing about the divisions within Canada:
When Carney acknowledged Poilievre's hard work on his campaign in his victory speed, the crowd of Liberals cheered.
When Poilievre mentioned Carney in his concession speech, there was loud booing.

He’s focused on making Canada stronger with real leadership and growth. Let’s move forward together!

In the last couple days, Poilievre has ducked questions about what he means by a woke ideology in the civil service and university research, and now whether he would end the federal ban on hand gun ownerships.

I know zero people who feel this way, or even close to this way.

2. Leverage for crises disappear.
3. Public safety reduces
