@TheBlackHorse65 They would need to create a new country with SK and MB or BC. Good luck with the latter and with former your ports would still be stuck with Hudson Bay. Which is doable but the remoteness is not going to help.

Not to defend the Alberta Seperatists; but the rest of Canada will rapidly fragment if they leave confederation; so they won't end up 'land-locked' in the way people imagine.
Niccolo Soldo (Fisted By Foucault)@FistedFoucault

Independence is impossible while landlocked in such a manner, specifically in that location. Think of the transit costs to ship your oil. Becoming a 51st state is funny, because you're going from having a 1/10th say to 1/51 of one.

@masonmennenga Your commenters really make me feel good about my decision to get the hell out of Christianity as a teenager.

@GrokProgrammer @TheWapplehouse So what do you want? An NBA team to carry a 4th year draft bust that insults his coworkers faith and almost certainly their families and has finally led the org to run out of patience? Sounds an awful lot like “affirmative action” for conservative Christians.

@GrokProgrammer @TheWapplehouse The Nypost article links to the Chicago Sun Times. There were reports of him preaching in the locker room. He’s insulting the faith of a lot of people in the Bulls org, Chicago, and the country. Does that sound professional to you?

@GrokProgrammer @TheWapplehouse So his organization should carry a 4th year draft bust and locker-room cancer? And you’re appealing to a Christian majority while not caring that he called the largest denomination a false faith? Maybe you should think this through.

This is utterly deranged authoritarianism. The way in which so many MAGA Christians have totally lost their moorings in this moment is more than disturbing—it’s dangerous.

Right-wing commentators James Kunstler and Eric Metaxas suggest that Trump needs to declare a national emergency and outlaw the Democratic Party: "I think it would probably look something like a civil war." peoplefor.org/rightwingwatch…

Conservatives in 1867: We will do whatever it takes to build a railway from coast to coast, through muskegs and mountains to unify this country. Conservatives in 2026: We will fight tooth and nail against building a railway on flat land that would connect ~50% of population.

Pierre Poilievre on the Toronto–Quebec City High-Speed Rail Network: "Conservatives oppose the $90b Liberal-Alto train ... a future Conservative government will cancel this $90b boondoggle altogether."

@TheTroySkinner I dunno man, most organizations don’t keep around 4th year draft busts who are locker room cancer. You can get away with a lot if you’re a great player, and he sure ain’t Dwight Howard.

@JDWarren1000 Don’t know anything about his personality, but if jerks were removed from the NBA it’s fair to wonder how many players and coaches would still be in the league.

“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.” Our world is now very recognizable. It’s described perfectly in a book from 1945. (And another one from 1949).

@Pro__Trading There are some differences between a third string NBA player and a first ballot HOF coach.

Dear @chicagobulls, I am a lifelong fanatical Bulls fan. Been to many games, bought your merch, and supported loyally through ups and downs. Until today. My greatest loyalty is, as is Jaden's, to Jesus Christ and truth. And I am grateful to live in a nation that protects freedom of religion and freedom of speech. Your violation of the first amendment--and, even more problematically, your ideologically selective while culturally amenable cancelling of a man who did nothing more than hold to his convictions--is a tragic capitulation to the spirit of the age. I urge you to do the right thing and publicly apologize to Jaden, acknowledging the error of censoring a man for believing what Scripture says and what Jesus taught. Respect, @JadensIV. -a Chicago pastor

@TheTroySkinner Gee, wonder why they don’t want someone like that around. He might be a sincere believer but he also sounds like a giant asshole.

@JDWarren1000 Well, Roman Catholicism is a “real” religion. But Rome’s doctrine of salvation is not biblical. So, in that sense, to call it “false” is correct. It’s not the “true” religion outlaid in Scripture. (And BTW, Rome says the same thing in reverse - calling Protestants “anathema”).

Unfollow me, Block me, say whatever. But this is a form of religious discrimination. NBA & Bulls did Jaden Ivy wrong I’m a Christian. And a follower of Jesus Christ. And I’m not ashamed of the Gospel. And can care less if you don’t like or don’t agree with it. That’s my choice!

@JoshPhillipsPhD I wish this was true. Nonsense upon stilts, but I do wish it wasn’t the case. Absent government, how are those rights enforced? At the barrel of a gun?

The Constitution does NOT give you rights. You already have them. The Constitution simply tells the government that it cannot take those rights away.

It's oil, it's gas, it's coal. We've known this for decades. The entire scientific community has been screaming this for decades. Energy execs themselves have know this for decades. Yet they don't think they should be held responsible for the trillions in damage it's causing.

Under Bernie’s 5% billionaire wealth tax, Jamie Dimon would owe $135 million in taxes, he’d still have $2.57 billion in wealth & every senior would get dental, vision & hearing benefits. Seems pretty fair for the CEO of a bank fined $27B for fraud & $290M for the Epstein scandal.
Acyn@Acyn

Kilmeade: What do you say to people like Bernie Sanders who says billionaires don't pay their fair share? Dimon: I don't know what he means by fair share

@JP03880617 @Slayer44535 @WarMonitor3 Trump started a war any poli sci undergrad could’ve told you was stupid, never thought through possible consequences, never consulted his allies, and now he’s asking a DEFENSIVE alliance to clean up his mess? Get fucked. Choke on it you bastards.

@Slayer44535 @WarMonitor3 So you changed the subject instead of dealing with my point which was all true. Many, but not all European countries have been shitty do-nothing “allies”. And you have never pulled your own weight. Why should we have to beg you to meet your commitments?

Pentagon has declined to reaffirm NATOs collective defence commitment saying it would be up to Trump after European allies have not helped the US with its war against Iran. Wow…

The Israeli right's embrace of nooses as their symbol really make the moral lines of this conflict clear. "We're not doing Jim Crow" is a much harder argument to make when you're literally wearing a noose on your lapel.
