Trump is burning through taxpayer dollars on wars just like he burned through his father’s money in the 80s.
Peter Mansbridge asked him that this (?) week. And Mansbridge offered ZERO pushback when Slogan Boy spit out his stale excuses that have been described as ridiculous/nonsensical by security experts.
here's today's post: "congratulations, Republicans — you own this shithole mess" — the price of gas goes fuckity-zoom.

No-one actually expects gas prices to rapidly return to normal.
Malignant narcissists experience increased paranoia, denial, and rage as death nears. They often externalize these experiences through destruction and abuse of others in an effort to maintain a sense of control.
I suspect all of these wars are in part related to Trump’s awareness of his mortality.

True justice would be sending her to jail.
Operation Epic Fuck Up.

Yeah, cool, so a short 🧵 about Halifax's finances.

Bell Canada announced it plans to build an AI data centre campus south of Regina. A flurry of questions are now being asked: What kind of data centre? How will it be powered? Will it use a ton of water? @simonenoch.bsky.social weighs in. @policyalternatives.ca www.cbc.ca/listen/cbc-p...

Trump’s White House lies about everything. Spain should tell Trump to go fuck off.
