The people who lost children and other loved ones in the Texas floods are owed honest answers from officials. They should be told why flash flood warnings issued hours earlier were not conveyed to people in the path of the water. They don’t need more prayers from politicians. They need answers.

Don’t let those elbows come down just because Trump’s been distracted from Canada lately (plus never forget, he was specifically asked to wait until after the election, to help Poilievre win).

It’s going to be a long 4 years of attacks, and who we pick as Prime Minister has never mattered more.
1. Danielle Smith etc ask Trump to tone it down on the Canada attacks until after the Canadian election, because it’s hurting the chance for Trump to end up with a like-minded ally in Poilievre.

2. Trump gets quiet on Canada for a while.

3. Poilievre closes the polling gap.

See what’s happening?
So am I understanding this right? Alberta Premier Danielle Smith asked the Trump/MAGA regime (who are currently attacking Canada) to time their attacks in order to influence the Canadian Federal Election and benefit Pierre Poilievre and the Conservative Party?

In an economic and sovereignty crisis?

There’s a measles outbreak. Kids are getting sick—and it’s completely preventable.

But the UCP is silencing health experts and letting ideology guide public health.

They won’t say it, so we will:

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs less to house people.

In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

I'm old enough to know just how fragile this beautiful nation is, and I’ll be damned if I let a reckless, incompetent and unethical Premier undermine what we’ve built here together.

Albertans and Canadians deserve so much better than Danielle Smith.

Let's be clear, Danielle Smith is more than happy to placate Trump during the worst economic crisis facing our country than she is willing to work with Canadians.

It's never country before politics for her.

Providers can still provide gender-affirming care to transgender people under the age of 19, but this order directs federal agencies to take steps toward withholding funds from providers who do.

This is a dangerous and sweeping attempt to control our bodies, our families, and our lives.

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

In the first two days of this presidency, we have a delusional billionaire de-facto cabinet member giving a Nazi salute and a sitting GOP senator calling for the deportation of a minister preaching about mercy for the vulnerable.

Super work, MAGA voters. Hope this was worth owning the Libs.

Literally nothing is as MAGA as watching a bunch of self-righteous frauds who pretend to give a damn about Christianity, viciously attacking a minister who preached about caring for the vulnerable while their rapist-felon messiah scoffed at her.

Your religion is short one Jesus.
