babybean I'm sorry. I had loosely been following. I didn't realize arrests had begun. ETA: You would think after the disaster of Standing Rock, that someone would listen. They aren't saying don't build it. They are saying to not build it in a way that hurts us. And it's too "inconvenient" isn't legitimate.

Its so frustrating because Reservations make up 0.2% of Canada’s land mass but they’re constantly being ploughed through and polluted. MH’s Rez is close to Toronto and still on boil water advisory. Maybe UO here idk, but we should be moving away from oil anyway. The light bulb was invented by candlelight, we are very capable of having vision and coming up with realistic alternatives and expanding on the current ones. starbuck I know there is some fundraising going on right now but I’m going to wait and see what pops up for legal fees in light of the arrests.

And it's not a bad thing for us* to know what's happening in other countries. *By us, I mean American posters.

All current events/politics/news discussions are welcome here. I'm just sorry that US Politics is such a shitshow that we rarely talk about anything else in here. I remember when I used to read the UK News almost every day

babybean, I’ve been following the Wet’suwet’en protests from afar. It’s all so unfair and wrong the way the government and oil companies are handling things. I’m so very sorry. ((Hugs))

Who's the host for this one? I need some new questions if this really is going to keep my interest for the 50th time.

Hmm. I don't mind Norah O'Donnell when I've seen her, but that's pretty sporadic. I will have to go back to remember how CBS typically does debates. I'll be watching as long as the kiddos go to bed at 6pm. Steyer and his tie will be back I see.

Oh hell no He just went after RBG and Sotomeyor. They went after me and should recuse themselves from any trump cases. Also btw the stock market will crash if he isn’t re-elected. He’s a fucking narcissistic asshole

This morning I heard a radio ad for someone challenging Issa. It compared him to Romney and said he doesn’t support Trump. Wut?! This guy said he will fully support trump, his wall and “draining the swamp”. Hardest of no’s.

babybean i've been following the protests and it's so frustrating and infuriating. I'm so angry that Trudeau won't step in and force CGL to take the alternate route or protect First Nations lands. There's a group of protestors shutting down the port of Vancouver today in solidarity. Right now i know we rely on oil and gas and shutting it off cold turkey would be not good but my gosh i wish we could start making better progress towards non-fossil fuels.

So I just saw a post from Kamala that AG Barr is meeting BEHIND CLOSED DOORS with GOP senators. Instead of a committee.

I get that it’s inconvenient but it is absolutely doable which is why it’s extra frustrating. I knew Trudeau would disappoint but this is something. I’m concerned about another Oka crisis situation. 7+ new blockades have gone up, including international bridges, in response to the arrests. This isn’t going away.

He’s a fucking narcissistic asshole Two things: 1) THAT'S NOT HOW THIS WORKS 2) Maybe there shouldn't be "trump" cases...I mean...I don't recall a lot of "Obama" cases. Piece of blubbering garbage.
