One has to wonder how Trump feels comfortable lifting the mask on his obvious alignment with Putin two weeks out from the US midterms.

Bro must be feeling pretty confident…

Alanis Morissette no longer looks like Alanis Morissette. 👀

It strikes me though, that the other 9 questions served as ‘focus group’ research for US, Russian and other disinformation operatives.

We can expect the troll farms to go hard on these areas going forward.

I really do hope that the results of the referendum can heal this imaginary ‘rift’ that exists between Alberta and the rest of Canada.

This is why you can’t rely on the tools of fascists to defeat fascism.

Zelenskyy with the receipts:

Quote from Zelenskyy: "To understand whether these are really technical problems at SpaceX, or whether it is some kind of operation or agreement to restrict us, to disconnect us, to prevent us from defending ourselves and protecting our people... we sent a couple of cars with Starlink to the territory of European Union countries, and they drove at speeds of over 180 km/h where permitted. Starlink works. We have the corresponding records and the corresponding evidence."

Zelenskyy on Starlink operations: test in EU has proved restrictions apply only in Ukraine

Yes, please!

Green Party Leader Emily Lowan:

“If the Greens held the balance of power, it would be my top priority to advocate for a better voting system. A voting system where we’re not caught between lesser evils, where we are choosing between broken promises or service cuts. And I think we can find that system in proportional representation.”
