Trump’s billionaire allies will now own CNN, Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ and NY Post — plus 185+ local tv stations and news in 100 markets. They also control X, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, WhatsApp, TikTok, Truth and Twitch. This is all by design to manipulate and surveil us. Pay attention.

Canadian PM Carney: Canada and the United States have built a remarkable partnership in the economy, in security, and in rich cultural exchange. But Canada doesn’t live because of the United States. Canada thrives because we are Canadian.

4 days. In 2025, Russia did not attack Ukrainian civilians and critical infrastructure for only FOUR DAYS. The genocidal Muscovite barbarians are pure evil. Ukrainians do NOT deserve to live this genocidal hell. We have a legal duty to stop genocide.

An excellent summary of the Universal Ostrich Farm’s attempt to save its birds. The outbreak occurs after the flouting of infection control and regulations. A cull order is delayed for 10 months through a legal challenge and ends with the government doing its work. www.msnbc.com/news/news-an...

Prime Minister @mark-carney.bsky.social, 🇨🇦Canadians will support you in blocking all exports of aluminium, steel, critical metals, oil and gas to the 🇺🇸USA in response to Trump tariffs. The pain for affected provinces can be adjusted internally by a finance guy like you. 🍁 www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Pretty incredible that Jeff Bezos' Amazon announced a "$5 billion-plus" partnership w/ a Saudi AI co launched by Mohammed Bin Salman and sent CEO Andy Jassy to meet with him less than 7 years after MBS murdered Jamal Khashoggi, a columnist for Bezos' Washington Post. techcrunch.com/2025/05/13/a...

Ask yourself: If the President so easily falls for photoshopped pictures he sees on Truth Social, what other complete falsehoods is he relying on when he makes decisions? How else is he being manipulated? That wasn’t funny. It was scary.

The CPC's economic accounting methodology is basically ENRON's, with extra steps.

Aaron Wherry@aaronwherry.bsky.social

First impression of the CPC platform: they're booking a lot of projected future revenue from projected future economic growth. The LPC platform explicitly did not do that. Neither did the CPC platform in 2021.

This mornings Mainstreet Poll. It is SAFE to vote for David Beckham. We can sit at the governing side of the table AND keep PP out. A vote for David Beckham achieves both of those things. Let’s elect the experts! To elect Mark Carney, Vote David Beckham.

No matter what polls say, this Canadian election could be VERY close. Don’t be overconfident, apathetic, or unstrategic, like too many were in the United States. Look how that turned out for them. And for the world. TURNOUT WINS ELECTIONS. 2 more advance voting days. Make Mark Carney our PM.

Fun fact: in Saanich—Gulf Islands, we have had nearly 2,000 new Liberals sign up. Our riding was among the largest voting polls to elect Mark Carney as Liberal Leader. Our campaign is one of the top campaigns for door-knocking and phone banking in Canada. We have the most declared signs across SGI.
