As the nation mourned the killing of VA ICU nurse Alex Pretti yesterday at the hands of federal officials in Minneapolis, President Donald J. Trump spent last night at the White House at a black-tie private screening of a documentary about First Lady Melania Trump. Amazon paid $40 million for the rights to the film just weeks after executive chair Jeff Bezos dined with Trump at Mar-a-Lago following the former president’s reelection and is spending another $35 million to promote the film.
I believe the shots that killed Alex Pretti and Renee Good are the shots heard ‘round the world that will topple the Trump regime.
From Minneapolis to Davos, people are joining together against Trump’s tyranny.
In Minnesota, they are joining across ethnicity, race, and class against Trump’s gestapo tactics, repression, and murders. Solidarity is spreading to other cities.
In Europe, they are joining across national boundaries against Trump’s threats to their sovereignty, the European Community, and NATO.
B.C. Energy Minister Adrian Dix says an agreement between B.C. Hydro and the Nisga'a First Nation will help power a planned floating liquid natural gas terminal in northwestern B.C. across the finish line.
Dix said the agreement, marked by the signing of a memorandum of understanding in Prince George, B.C., on Tuesday, will see the North Coast Transmission Line supply up to 600 megawatts to what proponents say will be Canada's second-largest LNG facility.
Construction of the line is expected to start this summer.
Colossal fossil Shell and industrial conglomerate Mitsubishi are trying to sell off their shares in the $40-billion LNG Canada liquefied natural gas megaproject, reinforcing predictions that 2026 would be the year that an oversupplied global market for the climate-polluting gas begins to hit home.
