Yesterday I shared word-for-word what Danielle Smith said to Breitbart. Today she said she never said that and is very offended. Only problem Danielle, there's an audio recording. Only thing that helped her today was the CBC muddying the waters by parsing out phrases and not sharing the full text.

There were warning signs all along the way with Trump, Musk, and MAGA, and there have been warning signs all along the way with Danielle Smith, Pierre Poilievre and their core conservative supporters. They are all cut from the same cloth, no matter what they pretend to be during our election.

Police are investigating a report of fake ICE agents targeting a Ukrainian grocery store.

An SUV with an “ICE” decal circled Sunday—then bolted when security showed up.

These impostors are appearing nationwide,, preying on people already living in fear— in the shadows. It’s calculated and cruel.

The fascism we are experiencing is an EMERGENCY. It needs to be responded to with lightening speed.

The courts are helping, but lightening speed is not their thing. They weren't designed for that.

So we all need to do more to respond. Get angry. Get organized. Get creative. Get vocal.

Are you kidding me? You’ve threatened our nation, and now you’re saying we’re not being grateful?

Just as BF Skinner found with mice, behaviour can be conditioned, so too Elon Musk is finding this out. When Elon opens his mouth, salutes, or posts on X, his Tesla drops and he is punished. And when he shuts his mouth and stays offline, the decline slows and he is rewarded.
