Mockler: It's honestly humiliating that other countries are treating our president like a child, like a baby. It's like if I created a peace prize and I gave it to myself. I'm like, I'm just going to keep this medal on all night. Our president is an actual child

The Grand Jury’s refusal to indict Letitia James is excellent news
The government can try to present the case once again
But even if they do, that should bolster her motion to dismiss for selective prosecution
And provide more evidence to condemn the MAGA DOJ when Democrats regain power

As a former prosecutor, I know a grand jury would indict a ham sandwich. The grand jury’s refusal today to indict Letitia James shows this case should never have been brought.
When we flip the House, we will investigate everyone involved for abuse of power.

The bottom 90% lost a collective $79 trillion in wages over the past 50 years.
Why? Because the top 1% ate up an increasingly larger share of the national income — so that $79 trillion flowed to them instead of the working class.
The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

Reading about this new legislation and I keep wondering if the UCP has EVER considered that someone else (like the NDP) may someday be in government.
Do they really want another party to have this much power?

There is a LOT in this legislation, to the point that big changes for Alberta's legal regulator are all the way at the bottom, including:
-Law Society of Alberta can't mandate training/education beyond a specific scope
-Conduct decision appeals go to Court of King's Bench

It is unclear whether he was fired or resigned.

A Mexican woman was grabbed by ICE right after a c section.
She was suffering eclampsia and other complications, and her baby was alone in the NICU
They wouldn’t even give her a breast pump
She has a pending visa for victims of violent crimes… and then ICE committed a violent crime against her.
