How to approve an ai data centre in Saskatchewan. “The majority of the RM's council members were appointed by the province on an interim basis only 10 days ago.… Four of the seven current councillors do not live in the RM” #skpoli #cdnpoli

Concerned about rushed, unregulated & undemocratic AI expansion? Read this story from Saskatchewan. Unbelievable.

In my district, a beagle breeding facility called Ridglan Farms has hundreds of code violations, including serious harm to the health of the dogs, yet the NIH is still giving funding to groups that use the beagles from this facility. Today, I urged Secretary Kennedy to stop this practice.

DOGGETT: Were you shocked to see that 850 people who were suspended for fraud had been reinstated at all once? RFK Jr: President Biden ... DOGGETT: Reclaiming my time. Biden's administration suspended 850 suspected fraudsters. Yours let them go back to work

Amazon will pay $20.5 million to settle allegations that two of its Oregon data centers helped contaminate groundwater. This is exactly why communities across the country are organizing to stop data centers — and winning. Never doubt your power to change the system.

You know what's really embarrassing about this conflict? Iran has a 90 percent literacy rate while 50 per cent of the US reads at the 6th grade level or below. Iran sent Phds to the ceasefire talks. The US sent realtors.

Kennedy canceled $500 million in mRNA research and announced no new mRNA projects will ever be initiated—killing the technology that produced the fastest vaccine rollout in human history.

Yes, should be noted that when Vance joins Kushner and Witkoff he is not joining a team of negotiators but a pair of war profiteers.

One of the most brazenly corrupt events in history will take place tomorrow when Jared Kushner represents the U.S. in critical negotiations with Iran to end the war while he accepts millions in fees (and billions in investments) from the Saudi gov’t which has been lobbying Trump to continue the war

Oh really?? Iran set the condition that Israel must not continue their attacks on southern Lebanon and then Israel continued doing that and now Iran closed the Strait again, highlighting how weak American influence in the region has become? What an utterly foreseeable turn of events!

Are you ready for the biggest day of mass protest that America has ever seen? Across all 50 states and dozens of countries, millions of people will gather tomorrow to reject Trump’s brutality at home and abroad. Please join us for a historic No Kings Day: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

The goal of the war is to reopen the strait that closed because of the war. Do I have that right

Aman Batheja@amanbatheja.bsky.social

The “main goal” of the Iran War may have changed, reports Washington Post: “Israeli officials said securing the [Strait of Hormuz] for energy shipments could become the war’s main goal now that regime change and ending Iran’s ability to obtain a nuclear weapon seem out of reach.”

Politicians should NEVER be involved in a family’s medical decisions. Medical decisions should involve ONLY the patient, their family & their healthcare team. #Conservatives are proving to be a threat to Canadians’ rights & freedoms. #cdnpoli #canpoli #ableg #UCP #HumanRights #MAID #Alberta

Proposed legislation would strengthen oversight and safeguards for medical assistance in dying in Alberta.   If passed, it will set a clear provincial framework, close gaps in the federal system and better protect vulnerable Albertans.   Learn more: www.alberta.ca/release.cfm?... #abpoli #ableg

Macroeconomic policy, or soap opera? Court rules Trump's case against Fed Chair Powell is dead. Tillis says he won't confirm Trump's pick if White House appeals. White House appeals. Current Fed Chair's term ends soon. What next? Tune in for the next season of Fed's Anatomy.

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

This is even dumber and more arrogant than "Iraq will greet us as liberators"

Murshed Zaheed@murshedz.bsky.social

"Top Trump officials acknowledged to lawmakers during recent classified briefings that they did not plan for the possibility of Iran closing the strait in response to strikes, according to three sources familiar with the closed-door session." How is this real life? AYFKM

I kid you not... The same White House that forgot that invading Iran might lead it to close the Strait of Hormuz, is now arguing (through Peter Navarro) that war with Iran is a good idea because it'll prevent Iran from closing the Strait of Hormuz.

Israel’s assault has killed 394 people in Lebanon, including 83 children, 42 women and nine rescue workers. Meanwhile, Human Rights Watch warns Israel’s military has once again used white phosphorus munitions in residential areas in southern Lebanon — a violation of international humanitarian law.
