Less than half of Albertans vote UCP. There are those who could have voted, but didn't. And those who split up the vote between various other parties. But when it comes right down to it, Kenney did not have an actual 50%+ majority. 1/ #ableg

And there are few UCP supporters now who agree with absolutely everything the UCP does. There are health care workers who have been shocked by the attacks on them. There are education workers who have been shocked by the attacks on them. 2/

There are parents who are not impressed with how school is happening with COVID. There are ranchers who are alarmed about coal mines destroying their pasturelands and water supply. There are people who are on AISH, or who care about people on AISH, who are not pleased. 3/

There are people who feel Kenney has chosen economy over people's health. There are those who think Kenney doesn't go far enough right, and want Alberta to separate and join the US. And there are way more Albertans who really do not want that to happen. 4/

There are people who feel Kenney is responsible for deaths, who feel Kenney has sat on federal funds and when he releases any of them, claims total credit. There are people who don't like the way Kenney has treated the LGBTQ community,... 5/

After following political issues, stories and videos since prior to 2008 when Obama ran for office and watching Christians seemingly asleep on the job, so to speak I have come to a conclusion that I feel I need to share with those who follow me. Because there are so many stories

We're keeping track of state & local elected officials who participated in the insurrection. If you want to run against them (or if they resign -- as they should! -- & there's a special election), @runforsomething will help you. https://t.co/0Op0rhvfxv

Rarely do this but I’ve transcribed this clip word for word because it’s too powerful not to. It’s a heart to heart. Watch or read if easier. @esglaude

“America is not unique in its sins as a country. We’re not unique in our evils to be honest with you.

This Thread is about the biasedness & selective censorship of Social Media Platforms during the time of riots.

We need to take social media seriously because we already have seen how these platforms influence people during US Elections.

Please read this.

Summary:

Protestors started their rally towards Red Fort

Had Lethal Weapons, beat Police, Damaged Public Property

Tried to ran over them by Tractors
Reached Red Fort, destroyed everything & Unfurled the Khalistani Flag

More than 300 Delhi Police Officials got injured

Narrative:

As always, the Left Naxals started spreading fake news to create hatred. To counter them, the Indic Wing started showing the other side of the news (correct news)

Since, the issue became so serious, the posts reached a lot of people, but the problem started...

(3)

when the post of INDIC WING accounts started getting removed by SM platforms.

Let’s start with Instagram

Instagram Accounts

In the pic, you can see the no of posts of Indic Wing accounts being deleted.

Uploading Videos of police getting beaten mob is spreading hatred or spreading truth?

This is how SM Platforms suppress voice of anyone who isn’t part of Left Brigade.

The “ebb and flow” analogy of the 2020 Presidential election. On election night we all knew the red title wave came in (flow). In that moment, we felt all the hard work, prayers and faith paid off. Only to be disappointed as the wave went out (ebb).

(Thread) Before the whole #ForceTheVote spectacle disappears in the usual ways that these things do in the Eternal Sunshine of the Very Online Left, something it might be worth taking a beat to think about:

So much of the discourse about this has treated it as a debate between insidery incrementalism and something more outsidery and confrontational--I've seen a few people describe it as a challenge to "electoralism"--but that stops making sense if you think about it for 5 seconds.

I know that some sort of spark to grassroots action was allegedly on the other end of the parliamentary Rube Goldberg machine:

"play hardball" in bargaining about the leadership vote --> get a floor vote that would have been defeated in a landslide making voters take M4A less seriously than ever as a real world possibility --> supposedly somehow get ammunition for this for primary challenges

...but about the most generous thing you can say about that is that it's *extremely* speculative.

@NC_Governor let me tell you something you son of a bitch. I’m not even going to get into a “political discussion” here because that is a whole issue which I’m not going to waste time on right now but where do you get the fuckin balls to use an Incident that the “Radical Left...

I suspect Repubs are only pantomiming because they know it won’t work & Biden will be sworn in

Like kids playing with the stove, eyeballing Mom the whole time, knowing she’ll stop them

If it worked, they’d have to be responsible for the results of their choices. Can’t have that

Republicans have spent decades successfully blaming Democrats for the bad results of their policies & putting forward none of their own beyond tax cuts.

If they pulled off a coup they would have to stand by it & every fruit of that poisoned tree.

They literally don’t know how.

A coup ends the whole idea of an opposing party. It leaves Republicans in full control

Even with their full time propaganda network, they can’t pretend jettisoning the whole-ass Constitution doesn’t mean they’re in charge.

They haven’t had to stand by a choice since Eisenhower

If there was any chance at all of the Sedition Caucus pulling this coup off, they would never do it.

Their grift, their prestige, their safety, their rhetoric all depend on a functioning system not stomped into chaos by civil war against the majority they would disenfranchise.

Any given Republican would rather eat their own face on live TV than make a public decision & be held responsible for its consequences

That’s why McConnell is their savior. He blocks everything so they never even have to vote, their names are attached to no actual choices, ever.

Trump is speaking but the mic isn't working.

Trump: "We will never give up. We will never concede--it doesn't happen. You don't concede when there is theft involved."

Trump: "Rudy, you did a great job."
Narrator: But, in fact, Rudy went 0-60.

Trump: "If Mike Pence does the right thing, we win the election."

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (7) After an incoherent ramble about his plan to march to the Capitol, an agitated & impaired Trump returns to Space Force, VA Cares, the stale old lines from 2019 super-spreader rallies."

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (8) Trump is switching subject from grievance to grievance, from "bad things" to "it was a setup," & "Hillary Clinton is very unhappy because they didn't change votes for her." Unhinged, paranoid, delusional.

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (9) Trump shouts out that the Georgia Senate election last night was rigged, fixed, corrupt, "and Kelly & David didn't have a chance." Then he repeats for 3rd time how he won every state in a landslide, but was robbed.

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (10) Trump yells that "if we had just won 3 of the 7 states in question, we would be President, & the only backline we have's the veto of the President of the United States." No telling what he meant. Incoherent, strange.

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (11) Trump continues his jacked up rant, falsely claiming Loeffler & Perdue were cheated because of the rigged voting machines. Says he has hundreds of pages of evidence he wants to read. He's out of touch with reality.

Last day of the Donald Trump presidency. Let's see where we're at on those 2016 campaign promises!

1. "I will build a great wall, and Mexico will pay for it!"
Only 80 miles of new wall was built where there was none before. Mexico didn't pay for it... you did.

2. "If I become president, we're all going to be saying 'Merry Christmas' again."
...

3. "I'll eliminate 'Department of Environment Protection' (EPA)"

He did cut the budget, but the EPA is still alive and well. In fact, he felt the EPA was necessary enough to look into his claim of “People are flushing toilets 10 times, 15 times as opposed to once."
No, really.

4. Heavily surveil and close some mosques in the US, and create database of Syrian refugees.

Good news! No mosques were closed on government order.
But if you really think mosques weren't being surveilled before, or that Feds didn't already have refugees in a database...

Dear Senators
Jacqui Lambie
Senator Rex Patrick,
I am writing to ask that you both vote against the legislation to extend the Indue card trials to any further sites and to end those currently on foot.I outline my reasons in the body of my letter and ask that you give my words

2. your serious consideration.
The Liberal and National parties have an ideological obsession with paternalistically controlling the lives of our First nations peoples and the unemployed. Demonizing both groups by constantly referring to their alcohol and drug abuse

3., gambling addiction and supposed high incidence of domestic/family violence. Other vulnerable groups have already been added to this list, those in receipt of a disability support pension (DSP) and students on Youth Allowance who also apparently need to have their income

4. controlled by Indue.
Without having any conclusive evidence that quarantining 80% of an individual’s social welfare payment to the Indue debit card prevents the purchase of alcohol or participation in gambling the Morrison government wants to continue the so called

5. "Indue card trials" and extend them to other sites experiencing social disadvantage.
More troublingly they also wish to extend the use of the Indue card to other social security recipients such as Aged Pensioners. There are only two groups who will benefit from
