- Elizabeth is a Columbia Heights fourth-grader who loves volleyball, learning English and giggling in the halls with her friends. She's been held in the Dilley Immigration Processing Center for nearly a month, and she and her mom have both fallen ill. sahanjournal.com/education/co...
- Um, exactly where are the federal or provincial governments on fact-checking secession and the Treaties? Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation is stepping up on its own to counter the disinformation being spread by Alberta separatists. 👏 #ableg #cdnpoli #elbowsup open.substack.com/pub/jodymacp...
- "Kevin is so nice. He's with me 90% of the time, but when he's with me, he's really with me great,” Trump said. At a recent announcement about "Trump accounts," Kevin O'Leary joined Nicki Minaj on stage to pump up the president. /more
- Can we take a moment to marvel how David Eby called a small group of people who met with US officials treasonous and Danielle Smith twisted that statement and suggested that a million people were implicated? And now, every separatist in Alberta believes that's what Eby said? 😮

- Mark Carney says Kevin Warsh is a "great choice" to lead the Federal Reserve. Hmm... Was that before or after we knew that Warsh is mentioned in the recently released Epstein files? So, how would this ensure the Fed remains free of influence (aka blackmail) from Trump who controls the DOJ?
- The separatists don’t care if there’s a conservative government in power at the federal level, they still want to leave Canada and join the US. #ableg #cdnpoli www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti...
- Good for Lindsay Amantea for calling out the absolute nonsense of claiming the word "conservative" can be exclusively owned by any single party. The whole concept is anti-democratic. #ableg #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
- Are we grappling yet with the theory that keeping the Epstein files secret not only protects powerful people (like Trump) but allows those in power to blackmail a multitude of other powerful people into submission?

- Eby also called on Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and other premiers to call out the meeting as “unacceptable conduct.” We need to take this seriously, folks. Our sovereignty is at risk. #cdnpoli #ableg #elbowsup www.cp24.com/news/canada/...
- “Town of Olds officials did not say where the facility would be located, when permits were expected to be applied for, when construction would begin or when it might start operating.” There’s that “transparency” issue again. /more
