In the fall of 1971 a man identifying himself as DB Cooper hijacked a plane flying from Portland to Seattle. He said he was carrying a bomb in his suitcase. When they landed he allowed the passengers and crew to get out, shook down the airline for 200,000 dollars, more than a million dollars in today's money. He boarded another plane which he jumped out of in the woods of Washington State. He got away without a trace. Danielle Smith is not as crafty as DB Cooper. But the Alberta Premier is trying to shake down Canada's Pension Fund, says Albertans have a right to more than 50% of it -amounting to more than 330 Billion dollars. The Feds aren't buying that. A renowned Alberta economist named Trevor Tombe isn't buying it either. Danielle Smith isn't DB Cooper. She won't make it off with the money. But it won't be for lack of trying. She is a serial fantasist, believing her own BS and so the story will continue to play out as Smith tries to set up Alberta's own Pension fund by raiding Canada's. She feels Alberta is entitled to 53% of what's in the Canadian fund. The Alberta economist says Alberta's genuine contribution is between 20 and 25%...By the way Alberta has 10% of the Canadian population.   Rats continue to leave the sinking ship known as Ford Government in Ontario. Monte McNaughton is the third cabinet minister in as many weeks to be leaving. The provincial Labour Minister says he want to go back to the private sector and his departure has nothing to do with politics. At one time McNaughton himself as a future premier, saw Doug Ford as the ticket to his ambitions. But McNaugton like so many others since the Greenbelt scandal took hold, now see a Ford ticket as a counterfeit ticket. The hero of the Democratic world. Ukraine's President Zelenskyy was in Ottawa today, in Parliament. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau saying Canada is with Ukraine for the long run.  And in the state of Georgia, former US President Jimmy Carter is in hospice care, end of life care, has been in a hospice now for seven months. His family expected him to be there for seven days. But he will soon be celebrating his 99th birthday there. His spirit is indomitable as he continues to fool modern medicine and survive a number of disorders against all odds. Some say one of the reasons he continues to survive is a desire to see the Atlanta Braves win the world series again. Good luck President Carter and Good luck to the Braves.

It was a stunning scene, President Biden with Ukraine's President Zelenskyy together in an active warzone, with air raid sirens sounding as they walked about. Biden's surprise visit comes just days before the first anniversary of Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine - and no one knew he was going until he arrived in Kyiv. Les Trent with more on how they pulled off the trip which was shrouded in secrecy. And it looked like a scene from Fast and Furious in downtown Austin…where for five hours several cars were engaged in street racing and doing donuts. Police were outnumbered and forced to retreat, but not before at least one officer was wounded and several cop cars were damaged. Plus, there were deadly crashes involving Teslas over the weekend on both coasts. In California, the driver of a Tesla died after crashing into a firetruck. While in Long Island, New York, four people were killed in an apparent head-on crash involving a Tesla. In both incidents, investigators are trying to determine if the autopilot feature was on. The deaths come as an increasing number of people, who appear to be snoozing behind the Tesla wheel, are caught on camera. Tesla's instruction manual states that before enabling autopilot you must agree to keep your hands on the steering wheel at all times and to always maintain control and responsibility for your car. And a star is born in the NBA, and his name is Mac. Mac McClung crushed it in this weekend's NBA Slam Dunk contest. But to be in the contest…you have to be in the NBA. And for Mac, that literally just happened. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
