Do rural communities feel ignored by MLAs?

“That’s definitely a sentiment and comments we are hearing,”-Kara Westerlund, RMA president.

The RMA has launched a campaign urging the province to close a $25B+ rural infrastructure gap after years of funding deficits

There is a giant presidential primary lane for a Democratic candidate who breaks party omertà and acknowledges voters’ belief the Democratic Party has never been serious about delivering on its campaign promises — and that this bait-and-switch must end.

This is not a good move. If Greenland falls, Canada is next. Canada needs to stand with Europe so that if the time comes, they will stand with us.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

You can tell Democratic Congressman Bill Foster hates war by the fact that he just voted to send $3.3 BILLION more in military aid to Israel—including offensive weapons.

Meanwhile he objects to universal healthcare & takes funding from UnitedHealth. When do we acknowledge his complicity in fascism?
Americans do not want to go to war with Venezuela.

I just signed onto the War Powers Resolution that would prevent military personnel from being deployed to Venezuela without Congressional approval.

Speaker Johnson must bring this up for a vote immediately.

CBS’s “Evening News” program lost over a million viewers in its first week under its new anchor, Tony Dokoupil, compared to the same period last year, marking a sharp loss for the network after the network’s billionaire owners installed far right provocateur Bari Weiss as editor-in-chief in October.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.
