Just after I started sending emails, asking UCLA Hospital why they didn’t maintain rape kits for use with incoming patients, I was (illegally) fired. Firing the mouthy DEI Director was a capitulation to Trump AND a convenient way to assure UCLA powers-that-be I wouldn’t be asking many questions.

Spot the difference
Side-by-side comparison of three social media posts announcing the death of former Republican House Speaker Dennis Hastert at age 84. On the left, Fox News posts, “BREAKING: Dennis Hastert, longest-serving Republican House speaker, dead at 84,” above a photo of Hastert raising his hand at a microphone. In the center, CBS News posts, “Former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert, who represented Illinois for two decades in Congress and was later jailed for violating banking laws, has died,” above a photo of Hastert walking through the U.S. Capitol. On the right, MeidasTouch posts, “Dennis Hastert, the longest-serving Republican Speaker in history, has died at 84. Hastert admitted in federal court to sexually abusing boys he coached as a high school wrestling coach. A federal judge called him a ‘serial child molester.’ He was a registered sex offender.” The MeidasTouch post includes an image of Hastert speaking from the House floor with a C-SPAN chyron identifying him as Speaker of the House.

Larkin + Edvinsson would be a huge haul. I have zero faith that Wings ownership would give Horcules the freedom to make that kind of move. But it could be one of the biggest trades of the decade. #NHL

• Says DET is now open to a long term contract. They still think they can get it done but started to check the market. • Elliotte speculates that an Edvinsson trade could open up what DET could ask for in a Larkin trade. Says trading both players could be an opportunity to remake the team. (2/2)

If Democrats win the Senate, Grand Wizard Alito will immediately retire and the MAGA-KKK Republicans will ram through his replacement in December. They already did that same thing to install Barrett after Justice Ginsburg passed away.

Rumours starting that "a depth D" (Spencer Stasney) is on the way out for the #Oilers, with a depth forward (4C) the return. IMHO the list is small: - Mark Kastelic (Bruins) - Noah Laba (Rangers) Young RHC who win draws, value contract, EDGE speed > 75%. If StanBow can get either, I'll clap.

Oh wow In May, I reported Alberta separatists were using an app developed by GOP operatives with ties to US ambassador Pete Hoekstra @theglobeandmail.com now reports the same operatives flew to Calgary on a private jet for a secret meeting with separatist leaders: pressprogress.ca/alberta-sepa...
The pitch began with a prayer.
On an afternoon in late January, Mitch Sylvestre, the leader of Alberta's most prominent separatist organization, gathered with three of his lieutenants in a boardroom not far from the executive hangars at the Calgary International Airport, where private jets shuttle in and out of the city away from prying eyes.
It was a few hours before thousands of Albertans would gather near the city centre at a rally to launch the separatist campaign. But this meeting, convened behind closed doors a half-hour drive away, was invite only.
The Alberta Prosperity Project chose the location to accommodate its guests, Republican political strategists from Michigan who helped Donald Trump win the state in the 2024 U.S. presidential election.
The American delegation travelled to Calgary to sell them on software developed for Republicans to get out the vote - and how it could be used to wrench Alberta from Confederation.
"They were young Christians. Capable, intelligent people," Mr. Sylvestre said. "We prayed before we started the meeting.""There is no secrecy'
One of the key figures behind the Michigan software company has expressed strong views on Alberta.
On July 1, Mr. Born wrote on social media: "On this Canada Day, I hope this is the last year Alberta is part of Canada." He has also called for U.S. annexation of the province.
A hunter, outdoorsman and commercial real estate agent in Grand Rapids, Mr. Born is the stepson of J.C. Huizenga, a wealthy Republican donor and founder of National Heritage Academies, a network of conservative charter schools in the U.S.
Mr. Wierda is the nephew of Erik Prince, who founded and ran the private military contractor Blackwater before it was sold to investors in 2010, and Betsy DeVos, the education secretary during Mr. Trump's first term.
