  1. Russia and U.S. amplifying #Alberta #separatist narratives to stoke division, distrust: report CBC by Jason Markusoff - " Russian covert influence network known as Storm-1516, known for making fictional websites that target audiences in various countries" are one of the suspected actors but both #Russian and #protrump #US actors are amplifying and spreading #misinformation.

  6. #MichaelShermer is scum

    "I was surprised/not at all surprised to learn that Michael Shermer is defending the murder of #ReneeGood, as well as being generally #proTrump and pro- #ICE. I do not read anything by #Shermer anymore, so good on Rebecca for having the intestinal fortitude to dig through the shit he vomits up."

    The Charlie Kirk purge – How 600 Americans were punished in a pro-Trump crackdown

    Two months after Charlie Kirk’s assassination, a government-backed campaign has led to firings, suspensions, investigations and other action against more than 600 people. Republican officials have endorsed the punishments, saying that those who glorify violence should be removed from positions of trust.

    By Raphael Satter and A.J. Vicens, November 19, 20253:00 AM PSTUpdated November 19, 2025

    When Lauren Vaughn, a kindergarten assistant in South Carolina, saw reports that right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk had been shot at an event in Utah, she opened Facebook and typed out a quote from Kirk himself.

    Gun deaths, Kirk said in 2023, were unfortunate but “worth it” if they preserved “the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given Rights.” Following the quote, Vaughn added: “Thoughts and prayers.”

    Vaughn, a 37-year-old Christian who has taken missionary trips to Guatemala, said her call for prayer was sincere. She said she hoped reading Kirk’s words in the context of the shooting might prompt her friendsto rethink their opposition to gun control.

    “Maybe now they’ll listen,” she recalled thinking.

    A few days later, Vaughn lost her job. She was one of more than 600 Americans fired, suspended, placed under investigation or disciplined by employers for comments about Kirk’s September 10 assassination, according to a Reuters review of court records, public statements, local media reports and interviews with two dozen people who were fired or otherwise disciplined.

    Some were dismissed after celebrating or mocking Kirk’s death. At least 15 people were punished for allegedly invoking “karma” or “divine justice,” and at least nine others were disciplined for variations on “Good riddance.” Other offending posts appeared to exult in the killing or express hope that other Republican figures would be next. “One down, plenty to go,” one said.

    Article Image…

    Others, like Vaughn, say they simply criticized Kirk’s politics.

    In the pro-Kirk camp, at least one academic was put on administrative leave after threatening to “hunt down” those celebrating the assassination.

    This account is the most comprehensive to date of the backlash against Kirk’s critics, tracing how senior officials in President Donald Trump’s administration, local Republican lawmakers and allied influencers mobilized to enforce the Trump movement’s views. The story maps the pro-Trump machinery of retaliation now reshaping American political life, detailing its scale and tactics, ranging from shaming on social media to public pressure on employers and threats to defund institutions. Earlier reports by Reuters have documented how Trump has purged the federal government of employees deemed opponents of his agenda and cracked down on law firms defending people in the administration’s crosshairs.

  12. 'Causing heads to explode': Alarms sound as #ProTrump union leader accused of '#sabotage'

    Story by Matthew Chapman
    October 3, 2024

    "Political observers and experts are raising alarms about the International #Longshoreman's Association union strike, which has seen #dockworkers suspend their duties unloading cargo at ports along the East and Gulf Coasts — speculating whether the head of the union is attempting economic sabotage in favor of former President Donald #Trump.

    "#USMX, the key guild of maritime employers, offered the ILA upwards of 60 percent salary increases in their new contracts. The ILA, however, is demanding even higher increases, as well as the continuation of exorbitant fees to handle shipping containers — a practice so expensive, according to maritime journalist John Konrad, that U.S. ports frequently ship freight over roads hundreds of miles at ten times the expense to consumers rather than transport containers onto secondary barges at a fraction of the price to consumers — as well as a total ban on any new technology to automate ports, which industry experts have warned could destroy the competitiveness of U.S. shipping.

    "The extreme nature of the demands has caused speculation among observers that the whole thing might be a ploy to get Trump elected."

  17. First, #proTrump media feeds its audience a steady diet of #misinformation, and violent encouragement. Then, once the audience is whipped into an #ignorance-based frenzy, the pro-Trump media organizations start distributing #weapons to them, because freedom! Watch how fast they switch to pearl-clutching indignation when someone they provided a weapon to goes out and kills someone. Watch how fast they disavow any responsibility for the inevitable.
