Arresting U.S. citizens all over the place

I studied in Montreal and I left the country a long time ago. Yet I still pay close attention to Canadian politics. Because I really want to see Canada improve.

How can I say this without offending anyone?

I feel I can speak my mind bluntly precisely because I am a foreigner.

Brutal truth

Many Alberta politicians act like absolute cunts.

Alberta is one of the Jewels of Canada. It was named after Princess Louise Alberta, the favorite daughter of Queen Victoria, it's a province that was blessed with great beauty and enormous ressources.

In 1974, the New York Times reported the province has SO MUCH money it doesn't know what to do with it:

ALBERTA FLOODED WITH OIL REVENUE

At time when most governments at every level, are struggling hard to stay solvent, Alberta, which produces 83 per cent of Canada'' oil, has more money than it knows what to do with.


nytimes.com/1974/10/13/archive…

Yet all I hear is constant whining, whining, whining, whining, whining. Why?

According to Statistics Canada, under Justin Trudeau, Alberta reached the highest oil production levels in history. In fact, Justin Trudeau opened a brand new pipeline:

For the fourth consecutive year, production of crude oil and equivalent products reached a record high, up 4.3% from 2023 to 298.8 million cubic metres in 2024.

The Trans Mountain pipeline expansion began operation in May 2024, providing Alberta crude oil with increased access to Pacific Ocean terminals and markets abroad.


statcan.gc.ca/o1/en/plus/7940-…

Despite this, all I keep hearing from Alberta politicians is how evil Justin oppressed/raped/humiliated working ordinary Albertans folks. This is insane.

One of the responsibility of having enormous natural ressources is managing sustainably to ensure the next generations can live in a good environment.

Yet Alberta politicians just keep whining about environmental rules. If they want their constituents to have cancer because of heavy metals from fracking and mining, if they want Alberta lakes and rivers polluted by plastics, I honestly don't give a damn.

The core issue is these Alberta corrupt politicians seem determined to blow up the planet, claiming there is no alternative. Fort McMurray burned the fuck down. Jasper burned the fuck down. But clearly the Alberta political leaders learned nothing from it.

Alberta has produced many great artists, historians, authors, scientists. They gave Canada many great figures. I hope that one day, they take back their province from these crooks. They deserve so much better than their current dumbass leaders. I believe Alberta should aim to be like mini-Norway.

Norwegians heavily tax oil and don't let filthy rich Oil CEOs get away with murder. Norway has an investment fund to support the next generations. But they are extremely environmentally conscious. Norway invests heavily in electric cars, public transit, and takes strong measures against plastic pollution. It would be very sad if Albertan leaders led their province to become like so many ressource-rich failed states

I don't know what that looks like, exactly, except that the same things are always true-- relationships are the core unite of changemaking, as @zteutsch.bsky.social puts it. grassroots organizing is always the way. We gotta build coalitions, build movements, build things that grow and last.

When Microsoft locked an ICC prosecutor out of their email, it proved just how easily U.S. power can reach across borders and into the heart of global justice, writes Paul Budde.

THE RECENT INCIDENT involving Microsoft and the International Criminal Court (ICC) should send a chill down the spine of every democratic nation.
Following a sanctions order from White House, Microsoft locked ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan out of his enterprise-level Office 365 account.
That account wasn’t personal — it was part of the ICC’s institutional infrastructure.

And just like that, an American tech giant disabled access to a key international legal actor.

...

What’s worse is the normalisation of it all. We scroll past headlines like “Microsoft cuts #ICC access” and carry on with our day. The sociologist Alexei Yurchak coined a term for this: hypernormalisation — the idea that everyone knows the system is broken, but we all pretend things are normal because no one can imagine how to change them..."

July 2, 1863, was Day 2 of the Battle of Gettysburg. The day saw 150,000 troops locked in combat across a four-mile front. From Little Round Top to Culp’s Hill, the clashes on day 2 of the battle—Devil’s Den, the Wheatfield, Peach Orchard, and Cemetery Hill—saw over 20,000 casualties. Lee’s Confederates sought to break Meade’s fishhook line, while the Union fought to hold the high ground, pushing both armies to the brink.
in reply to Obi-Two al-Menashani

At dawn on July 2, 1863, Meade’s 90,000-strong Union Army fortified Cemetery Hill, Culp’s Hill, and Cemetery Ridge, forming a defensive fishhook. Reinforced by II, V, and XII Corps, Meade prepared to repel Lee’s next strike. Across the field, Lee’s 70,000 Confederates held Seminary Ridge and Gettysburg, with Longstreet’s and Hill’s corps west, Ewell’s north. Lee planned a double assault: Longstreet to hit the Union left, Ewell the right, aiming to collapse Meade’s line.
in reply to Obi-Two al-Menashani

Delays in Confederate positioning, especially Longstreet’s march, postponed attacks until afternoon, setting up a ferocious clash. Around 4:00 PM, Lt. Gen. James Longstreet’s First Corps launched Lee’s main attack on the Union left. Hood’s division, over 7,000 men, targeted III Corps under Maj. Gen. Daniel Sickles, who had advanced to a vulnerable salient at the Peach Orchard, leaving Devil’s Den exposed.
in reply to Obi-Two al-Menashani

Hood’s brigades—Law’s Alabamians and Robertson’s Texans—stormed Devil’s Den, clashing with Birney’s division in a brutal fight among massive boulders. Artillery roared, while sharpshooters picked off officers. The Confederate push aimed to outflank the Union line, threatening Little Round Top and the entire Union position. By 4:30 PM, the Wheatfield, a 20-acre clearing south of the Peach Orchard, became a slaughterhouse.
in reply to Obi-Two al-Menashani

Hood’s and McLaws’ Confederate brigades, including Anderson’s and Semmes’, collided with Union III Corps’ reinforcements, like de Trobriand’s brigade. Around 5:00 PM, Barnes’ V Corps division and Caldwell’s II Corps division joined the fight, turning the field into a seesaw of charges and countercharges. Regiments like the 17th Maine and 1st Minnesota fought ferociously, but Confederate pressure surged.
in reply to Obi-Two al-Menashani

By 6:30 PM, after six major assaults, the Confederates held the blood-soaked Wheatfield.

At the peach orchard along the Emmitsburg Road, McLaws’ Confederate division targeted Sickles’ III Corps. Barksdale’s Mississippians and Kershaw’s South Carolinians charged, shattering Graham’s brigade with rifle volleys and cannon fire. By 6:00 PM, Hill’s corps, including Anderson’s division, joined, overwhelming Humphreys’ Union line.

in reply to Obi-Two al-Menashani

Sickles’ corps crumbled, with Sickles wounded and his men retreating toward Cemetery Ridge. The collapse exposed the Union center, but Confederate momentum slowed, unable to exploit the breach fully as dusk approached.

As Devil’s Den fell, Hood’s Confederates eyed Little Round Top, which was key to the Union left. Col. Strong Vincent’s brigade, including Col. Joshua L. Chamberlain’s 20th Maine, raced to hold the hill.

in reply to Obi-Two al-Menashani

Law’s Alabamians and Robertson’s Texans were met with fierce fire from the Union forces as they charged repeatedly. The 20th Maine, at the line’s end, repelled assaults, with Chamberlain’s bayonet charge breaking the Confederate push. Reinforced by Weed’s brigade, the Union held Little Round Top by dusk, saving Meade’s flank but losing Vincent and in their desperate stand.
in reply to Obi-Two al-Menashani

As evening arrived, Lt. Gen. Richard S. Ewell’s Second Corps struck the Union right. Johnson’s division attacked Culp’s Hill, clashing with XII Corps under Greene. The entrenched Union troops repelled Confederate charges. Simultaneously, Early’s brigades, Hays’ and Avery’s, hit Cemetery Hill, briefly seizing XI Corps’ guns. Hancock’s II Corps counterattacked, driving the Confederates back by 9:00 PM. The Union right held firm, thwarting Lee’s plan to collapse Meade’s line.
in reply to Obi-Two al-Menashani

The day saw over 20,000 casualties—roughly 10,000 per side. Union resilience, from Chamberlain’s stand to Greene’s defense, preserved Meade’s line. Lee’s near-successes emboldened him, while Meade’s army, battered but intact, braced for another Confederate onslaught the next day. July 2, was Gettysburg’s bloodiest day, with savage fighting in the Wheatfield, Devil’s Den, Peach Orchard, Little Round Top, and Culp’s Hill.
in reply to Obi-Two al-Menashani

Lee’s plan to crush Meade’s flanks failed against heroic stands by the Union forces, though the Confederates came agonizingly close to victory. Both armies suffered crippling losses, yet neither yielded. As night fell, Meade fortified his fishhook, anticipating Lee’s next move. Lee, believing the Union center vulnerable, planned a massive assault for July 3 as the war’s turning point loomed, setting up Gettysburg’s final day.

No we aren't subtle about what we want to do. We want illegal aliens to be deported.

If troops invade our borders, we shoot them.

If invaders are not wearing the uniform of their country, they can be considered spies and shot on sight.

Instead, we stupid Americans, give these illegals the same sorts of due process a citizen would have before deporting them

Would you have made the same stupid statement about Alcatraz?

Victor Davis Hanson:
The Trump Deranged “Experts” Were Wrong. Again.

President Donald Trump’s track record flies in the face of conventional wisdom from so-called “experts”— but they will be the last to admit it.

Since his second inauguration, the “experts” have been relentless in their mission to minimize the Trump administration’s efforts with the economy, immigration, Iran, and beyond.

Meanwhile, the stock market has soared. There were ZERO illegal border crossings in May, according to CBP. Iran’s nuclear infrastructure was left severely damaged without the threat of war on the horizon. All this, thanks to the decisive and, at times controversial, actions taken by the Trump administration.

Despite these verifiable results,
@VDHanson
argues that much of the elite resistance to Trump stems not from data, but from disdain. And that bias has blinded them to basic common sense. He breaks it down on this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

“Donald Trump is pretty commonsensical. If you take a million people away that were working in the shadows at cheaper wages and hurting American job opportunities and you make countries that had asymmetrical tariffs and were responsible for a $1.1 trillion trade deficit and you can stop that and they still want entry into the American market, then you can have an economic renaissance.

“You should try to shed your Trump Derangement Syndrome because it's really affecting your powers of judgment and analysis. And you're going to lose readers. You are so wedded to the idea that Donald Trump is going to destroy the United States because of your personal animus, you cannot see that most people have commonsense solutions.”

Hurricane Science Was Great While It Lasted

Known as the Special Sensor Microwave Imager Sounder, or SSMIS, it rides on a series of satellites and allows forecasters to see a storm’s structure, which might otherwise be invisible. The Hurricane Hunter planes that fly into storms can also be used to generate three-dimensional storm images, but the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which is responsible for hurricane forecasting, has only two of those aircraft. They can’t be everywhere at once. With the SSMIS, forecasters had an autonomous, powerful eye in the sky. But now the Department of Defense says it will cease processing and distributing the crucial imagery from this sensor at the end of this month. Losing these views threatens the National Hurricane Center’s ability to see what’s forming.

How stupid does one have to be to post this shit?

Hitler was using the concentration camps to house those he planned to put to death.

The US is housing invaders who could, under international law, be shot on sight. Instead, we are housing them while awating deportation hearings. Seems rather civil.

But you can't fix stupid people who will do anyting to feed their TDS.
