Everyone must be better off because we’ve cut immigration, doubled- and tripled-down on trickle-down economics, we’ve cut marginalized ppl from benefits and we’ve cut workers’ wage growth. These are what we were told we had to do to have a great standard of living and an economically-prosperous life

BREAKING: Israel snatched an American teen from his West Bank home in the middle of the night — just days before his birthday and during his critical national exams. He's now been held for 3 months, with no charges. Netanyahu just came to the US for the *eighth* time since Trump took office.

So nobody questions why Diana Fox Carney was appointed to a newly conceived, role on ocean conservation and Carney funnelling money to ocean conservation? This is what consolidation of power, supported by public funds looks like

And I'll never forget the LaQuan McDonald murder. Cop emptied his gun into him in front of other police, and they thought they could cover it up. Rahm Emanuel can never be allowed to make a political comeback. He is everything that is wrong with the big-money centrists who have controlled the DNC.

I been telling y’all this
This is how I can tell that we were being conditioned: instead of taking accountability for the fact that she might be leading her party towards a political buzzsaw with this referendum vote, she decided to double down by attacking immigrants. She tweeted: "Temporary residents contribute about $150-million to our tax base
annually, yet the cost to provide services for them is over $1-billion. It's simply not fair to Alberta taxpayers." She provides zero sources for these numbers, yet we are supposed to take them as facts. Blaming immigrants or minorities of some kind are where the conservatives naturally turn when things are going wrong for them. This displacement of blame allows Smith to refocus attention in an attempt to obscure the fact that she has been privatizing Alberta health care and education throughout her premiership, thereby defunding public services for private interests.
