It’s the marginal utility of wealth. There’s a limit to it’s benefit if you only use it the way he does.

It is genuinely weird that Trump has spent his whole life surrounded by extraordinary wealth and still has the absolute trashiest, tackiest taste imaginable.

You're dreaming in technicolour - this is a stain that will take decades for Canadians to forget.

I’m just hoping Canada and the world know we just need to get through the Trump years and we can be friends again. Although I seem to recall saying this about four years ago as well.

When I worked in WaPo Opinions in 2017-2018, senior editors specifically told junior editors not to factcheck Marc Thiessen and other MAGA columnists, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to publish anything by them at all, and “we need them for intellectual diversity.”

We need more than press releases from you and the NDP. Busy into a David Parker meeting demanding his arrest. Call the UCP the traitors that they are. Something. You’re bringing a jelly salad to a gun fight.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

When Obama dunked on Trump at the Correspondent's dinner 15 years ago he showed a picture of what the WH would look like under Trump. Even it was not as crazy as this.

They don’t care. It just reaffirms their thoughts.

Dear Alberta Separatists, YOU ARE BEING MANIPULATED. Alberta separatism is the latest niche for disinformation merchants www.nationalobserver.com/2026/05/06/o... via @nationalobserver.com Fake YouTube accounts with fake Albertans stoke rage & normalize secession rhetoric.

Yes!! For f’s sake fight!! You won’t get a single vote from this post or this photo op. Go in the hard areas and let Albertans know that by emulating Quebec expect to lose considerable investment and jobs will be lost. Will Canada deal fairly on the CPP if we separate?

From here it sure doesn't look like a lot of fighting. Avi Lewis is advancing clear ideas and policies and sticking by them. Can't say the same for you, and this should be the easiest govt in Canada to oppose in the history of Canada.

More on Alberta’s boundary mess… CBC News election unit analysed the maps: the main report would have produced a 7-seat margin of victory for UCP. The minority report by UCP appointees? A 23-seat win, with many seats narrowly flipped in Calgary. W/analysis by me: www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

This is, hands down, the most uncomfortable two minutes I’ve watched in a long time. Russell Brand is asked to identify a Bible verse relevant to his, um, legal battles and spends a few minutes clumsily thumbing through Scripture and arrives at nothing.

This province blows

Is Danielle Smith going to call out the foreign psyops trying to break up our country? Fake "Alberta" voices are located in Netherlands, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Pakistan. Will the feds call on youtube to deal with this political fraud? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

If the UCP goes forward with this plan to gerrymander Alberta's electoral boundaries, Albertans of all partisan persuasions will be called upon to push back. And hard. drjaredwesley.substack.com/p/drawing-th...

Today, Danielle Smith and the UCP caucus unveiled plans to rig the next election: A new motion indicates the UCP's plans to manipulate the election maps for the next election in their favour, and without any requirement to consult the public. This has never been done in Canadian history. /1

Raises more? Are you a NYT headline editor? This is outright stealing an election

Jack Farrell@jack-farrell.bsky.social

Alberta's UCP sending proposed riding changes somewhat back to drawing board. First proposals were controversial, namely for being multiple. Minority UCP appointee report raised eyebrows, and this move raises more. From me and @reportrix.bsky.social: www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/prairies_bc/...

She was a POS at the Calgary sliding centre and not one person in Canadian sliding sports is sad she's gone. Intimidating younger sliders in the gym to get them to leave equipment faster for example.

This is Bari Weiss. She kills finished 60 minutes segment on documented abuse in Trump's El Salvadoran prison, but runs a story that clearly says CBS is completely unable to confirm. Why? One serves the Trump Regime, and one does not. CBS is worthless trash. So is Bari Weiss.

The degree to which those comments can undermine public health, do harm to women who are pregnant, create anxiety for parents who do have children who are autistic – is violence against the truth.
