You can really tell America is winning this war when the president panic posts “open the fuckin’ strait, you crazy bastards” at 5 am on Easter Sunday along with an extension on their deadline

Imagine having SIX times the resource revenue and still ending up with a larger deficit than when Alberta's New Democrats were in power. How embarrassing.

Danielle Smith believes she’s giving us a masterclass in distraction, but this reeks of desperation and Albertans will see right through it. globalnews.ca/news/1167526...

I know what the policies say are irrelevant, because ICE has became a poorly-trained and intentionally-violent goon squad, but trying to suggest that police have a responsibility to kill you because you're doing a cautious third-point turn in a panic is fucking insane. www.dhs.gov/sites/defaul...
Moving Vehicles, Vessels, Aircraft, or other Conveyances
a. DHS LEOs are prohibited from discharging firearms at the
operator of a moving vehicle, vessel, aircraft, or other conveyance unless
the use of deadly force against the operator is justified under the standards
articulated elsewhere in this policy. 9 Before using deadly force under
these circumstances, the LEO must take into consideration the hazards that
may be posed to law enforcement and innocent bystanders by an out-of-
control conveyance.
b. Firearms shall not be discharged solely as a warning or signal or
solely to disable moving vehicles, vessels, aircraft, or other conveyances,
except under the limited circumstances described in Section V., Warning
Shots and Disabling Fire.

The incessant need to justify the regime's actions is so absolutely pathetic. According to DHS' own guidelines, lethal force is prohibited against a moving vehicle unless strictly necessary. It is not true that the cops are allowed to kill you if you don't stop. torontosun.com/news/world/i...

WARMINGTON: Despite sad outcome, ICE not to blame in Minneapolis
If you run your vehicle toward a cop who has his gun out of holster, you are going to get shot, as was the case in Minneapolis. More.

"Iron laws of the world"? Some of America's most important national accomplishments are about leading humanity away from this kind of bullshit. If we let ideologues like Stephen Miller drag us back into a world where brute force is all that matters, all of us will be less safe.

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:
News Team,
Thank you for the notes and texts. I apologize for not reaching out earlier.
I learned on Saturday that Bari Weiss spiked our story, INSIDE CECOT, which was supposed to air tonight. We (Ori and I) asked for a call to discuss her decision. She did not afford us that courtesy/opportunity.
Our story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices. It is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now-after every rigorous internal check has been met is not an editorial decision, it is a political one.
We requested responses to questions and/or interviews with DHS, the White House, and the State Department. Government silence is a statement, not a VETO. Their refusal to be interviewed is a tactical maneuver designed
to kill the story.
If the administration's refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, wehave effectively handed them a "kill switch" for any reporting they find inconvenient.
If the standard for airing a story becomes
"the government must agree to be
interviewed," then the government effectively gains control over the 60 Minutes broadcast.
We go from an investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state.
These men risked their lives to speak with us.
We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their
stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless.
CBS spiked the Jeffrey Wigand interview due to legal concerns, nearly destroying the credibility of this broadcast. It took years to recover from that "low point." By pulling this story to shield an administration, we are repeating that history, but for political optics rather than legal ones.We have been promoting this story on social media for days. Our viewers are expecting it.
When it fails to air without a credible
explanation, the public will correctly identify this as corporate censorship. We are trading 50 years of "Gold Standard" reputation for a single week of political quiet.
I care too much about this broadcast to watch
it be dismantled without a fight.
Sharyn

Danielle Smith is using the notwithstanding clause to protect herself while crushing individuals' Charter rights. That’s not freedom, that’s cowardice. And Albertans won’t stand for it.

Where's the premier while MLAs rush through an all-night debate on stripping Albertans of their Charter rights? An airport lounge, waiting for a flight to Saudi Arabia. She didn't even bother to show up for the vote. I remember when conservatives turfed premiers for this level of hubris.

US aid to Ukraine since Feb 2022 totals $128 billion, mostly older weapons, not cash. The crypto industry is seeking a bailout of $100 billion from the US Treasury. That is cash. Remember that when crypto CEOs accuse anyone else of "grifting." www.cfr.org/article/how-...

Looks like Danielle Smith has a flag for her Vichy administration. She gives Trump's stars and stripes top billing. She has blanked out our Maple Leaf with a battle cry for oil giants. Did Kevin O'Leary help design the logo? Canada needs to stand up to the quislings.

If you are seeing the Bob Dylan movie make sure you stay until after the credits. Roy Orbison appears and says “I’m assembling a team” and throws down pictures of George Harrison, Jeff Lynne and Tom Petty.
