Brazil rejected Bolsonaro. Serbia's students beat Vučić. Machado is home in Venezuela. What a day for democracy.

In one day, two politicians - Bolsonaro in Brazil and Vucic in Serbia - with ties to Trump have lost surprise elections thanks to high turnout. The rise of the international far-right is not inevitable.

Eby should have just resigned instead of calling an election. It would have been better for both the NDP and BC Conservatives to have a real leadership race before going to the electorate. Now that drama that hasn’t been addressed re: Findlay will be happening in the background of government.

negative charisma lol

Tarunist@tarsq.bsky.social

The results of this BC election are incredibly disappointing to me. The NDP clearly have a public relations problem (and Eby has negative charisma) but in policy, they have objectively done a lot of good. They built a ton of new hospitals, housing, and transit. Things that really matter.

My "may make me unpopular on Bluesky" take is that Carney rides high in the polls not *in spite of* but actually *explicitly because* he governs conservative. Canada has been tilting right for a while. Pierre Poilievre was perceived as too incompetent & too toadying...not too conservative. #cdnpoli

British Columbia has elected a Conservative majority government for the first time in nearly a century. Premier David Eby has resigned as NDP Leader, after his snap election call, two years early, backfired. #bcelxn44 #bcpoli #cdnpoli

Ronan Farrow reported in a 2023 New Yorker piece that the Pentagon signed a contract to keep Musk from cutting off Ukraine’s battlefield connectivity at will. Colin Kahl described it as a way to lock in service so Musk couldn’t just flip the switch, considering Musk's known antipathy towards Ukraine

Smith is a cynical opportunist. A self-serving populist who will say and do anything to cling to power. She has no real convictions outside of self-aggrandization. She is the epitome of the contemporary conservative politician.

It would be grand, then, if the Government of Canada would terminate any use of X/Twitter. And don't say, "Oh, we need it to get our messages out," because then you are "caught in a situation where we are reliant on one provider."

Mark Carney on what Elon Musk's throttling of Starlink means for Canada: "We do not want to be caught in a situation where we are reliant on one provider that puts Canadians at risk or compromises our sovereignty, our ability to express our values and live our values."

Wow, I don’t know how more clear this can get. Smith is a separatist and has been one for quite some time. #ABPoli #ABLeg #CdnPoli

So, does this mean that Mitch Sylvestre and Jeff Rath were... drum roll please... MAGA paid influencers?? Would that be voter interference by... America?? Just very hypothetical questions. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

The Alberta prosperity project has officially cut ties with Mitch Sylvestre and Jeff Rath. No word on their UCP memberships though… #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

What’s up with all the Albertans who skipped questions 1 to 9? Way to label the province as full of lazy bigoted hillbillies. #Canada #Alberta #cdnpoli #abpoli #ableg #yyc #yeg #ForeverCanadian #Never51

How many “reasonable fee[s] or premium[s] to individuals with a non-permanent immigration status living in Alberta for their and their family's use of the health care and education systems” could we have paid for with the cost of this referendum? #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

Still waiting for Carney to move the federal government off of Twitter. Until that happens, it's all just talk.

Can we now get on with the business of investigating the ringleaders of the AB seppie movement for soliciting foreign help to break up the country...? #ABLeg #cdnpoli

Most of the coverage tonight has been a relitigation of Alberta’s grievances. Talking to separatists whining about Trudeau, panelists whining about Trudeau…and nobody ever really trying to introduce facts to their feelings. Pathetic.
