The top three things Jesus was on about were feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and welcoming the stranger. Rich men have convinced so-called Christians to starve the hungry, gut health care, and deport the stranger to enrich themselves. It’s astoundingly anti-Christ.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

This is a declaration of war against the entire Canadian labour movement.

Teachers *must* ignore a return to work order and hold fast on the picket lines, and all workers in Alberta need to stand with them

Let's be clear about what happened today.

Premier Smith introduced a bill to strip Albertans of Charter rights,

denied MLAs the opportunity to debate it and the courts the ability to scrutinize it,

and did all of this from her seat on a jet to Saudi Arabia.

Jared Wesley @jaredwesley.ca · 4d

The UCP government has invoked time allocation and on a bill removing Albertans' Charter rights.

And they're using the notwithstanding clause to do it.

Here's why that is a dangerous precedent. And why real conservatives need to stand up against it.

Alberta Strong and Free, Notwithstanding

The UCP's Bill 2 skirts the legislature and the courts, leaving it up to the public to push back swiftly

What in the actual fuck? Googles AI basically hallucinated that I somehow accused my podcast host & close friend of toxic behavior & harassment - killing her channel. Keep in my, Vera and I host a podcast together regularly and are good friends and her channel is amazing. This is absolutely fucked.

Council of Geeks @councilofgeeks.bsky.social · 5d

Council of Geeks is over.
I only just learned myself thanks to Google’s AI summary. Thanks Google for letting me know my channel is dead. Some digging, using Google’s AI mode, revealed it’s because of the toxic feud between me and @jessiegender.bsky.social

I wouldn’t have known otherwise.

A screenshot of “AI overview” from Google, which reads:
“The ‘Council of Geeks’ podcast, which included the YouTube Channel run by Nathaniel Wayne (Vera Wylde), has ended. The podcast concluded, and while the YoyTube channel was previously dedicated to content like Doctor Who analysis, it is no longer active.
Podcast and YouTube channel: Both the podcast and the “Council of Geeks” YouTube channel, known for its Doctor Who content, have stopped producing new material.
Reasons: while the specific reasons for the shutdown are not detailed in the provided snippets, the consensus is that the project is over.”

Screenshot from Google AI that reads:
“Harassment allegations
Targeting of creator Jessie Gender. In 2024, a serious public feud developed between Wylde and another content creator, Jessie Gender, over Wylde's podcast, Frak this Podcast!. Gender claimed that Wylde displayed toxic behavior behind the scenes and weaponized her fanbase to target her. Wylde was also accused of ignoring concerns regarding harassment and abuse within her own Discord server.
Abusive behavior toward collaborators. Collaborators on Wylde's podcast and Discord server have corroborated Gender's accusations, alleging a pattern of abusive behavior and harassment.”

Meanwhile, in Manitoba…

At least one premier has a grasp of just how serious using the notwithstanding clause is…

And is taking steps to ensure that at least one province doesn’t use it before hearing from the courts.

Time to rethink "snowbirds". If you're going to spend 5 months out of country in US, not paying any consumption taxes here that support all our programs, yet you receive full benefit, maybe that deserves a rethink. Filling the coffers of a regime trying to kill us doesn't sit well. #cdnpoli

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

Something unexpected happened at the @meidascanada.ca town hall in Victoria.
A group of young Afghan girls who escaped the Taliban showed up and asked to speak. They told their story of the fight for education and the need for Canada to help.
We will be sharing their story.

An artist's integrity matters to me, and those that speak up and out against this corrupt, illegitimate administration are brave enough to risk potentially alienating fans on the right because of their integrity. Anyone who doesn't is chickenshit at this point.

We have arrived at the point where Trump and his co-conspirators in Congress and the Courts have overthrown the Constitution and replaced our government with direct rule.

Nobody’s coming to save us unless Democrats, Independents and Constitutional Republicans unite to throw out this government.
