An epic comment of shit stirring hatred from the leader of the Conservative party - proving yet again she is not fit for office. Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch defended Israel's right to "control their borders" and said it was "significant" there were Labour MPs other countries did not want to let in. #conservative

I'm surprised to see a republican #US president talking or joking about a third term. Wouldn't the necessary constitutional change directly challenge the #conservative principles of their voter base?

Isn't this something #democrats & #republicans would agree on?

While #Trump dedicates himself to making every #conservative fantasy come true, millions wonder who will save them from the onslaught of the #rightwing fever dream. The answer is no one but ourselves. Margaret Kimberley latest in @blackagendareport.

“After many years of covering #election campaigns in Canada, USA and Europe, the #Conservative Party of Canada is the most outwardly aggressive and uncivilized that I’ve witnessed. It’s on par with Viktor Orbán in Hungary and the Republican Party...” #CanPoli

“This didn’t just pop up this year in response to Trump and the tariffs. There is a fairly profound divide within the #Conservative movement.. …When things are going well, you don’t have people like [Jason] Kenney and [James] Moore coming out. So if this is about the fracturing starting to come, I feel bad for [#PiPiLeQ]; I don’t think there’s a way to stop it.”

My father is a staunch conservative (used to be) a critical thinker before Trump. We can’t talk because everything comes around to it. None of Trump’s policies touched him personally - until now. He has invested alot for his grand daughter’s college in Edvest, which she needs in a few months. For her sake, I hope it’s still there in Sept. For his sake, I hope this WAKES HIM UP! #Maga #Conservative #529 #FamilyPolitics

From @drjaredwesley.substack.com "Some #Conservative leaders in the West are refusing to do the hard work of building bridges across provinces. Instead, they are undermining national #institutions, elevating regional #grievances, and offering what we might call #performative #disengagement. The tactic may win headlines and satisfy the base, but it weakens the broader Conservative project at a critical moment in our country’s history."

What a review of Luis Ibarra’s candidate biography tells me is that he’d be helpful in rebuilding a sensible and *sane* #Conservative Party — which is not, regrettably for #CanPoli, going to happen unless and *until* #PiPiLeQ gets the drubbing he so richly deserves in #Elxn45. #TorontoCentre

This is a perfect example of #Trump's billionaire friends shafting the #MAGA base. Will they ever learn?

The first major election in the US since President Donald #Trump took office was also seen as a mood test with a view to his first months in office and the role of tech billionaire Elon #Musk in the government. Musk had supported #Schimel with about $20 million. After counting 95 percent of the vote, #Crawford prevailed with 55 percent of the vote against her #conservative opponent Brad Schimel, who came to 45 percent.
