I left the Blue Bird for Blue Sky ❤️

I’ve been a political animal since my teens, living in Viet Nam in the late 60s made me political pretty damn quick.

I am so worried about America. Also very very worried for my Canada.

Somewhere in the neighbourhood of 55 Canadians - those that we know about .. are in detention facilities in the US.

The United States is not safe for anyone. The evil and cruelty never end.

I very much doubt that I will ever set foot in the US again in my lifetime.

I’m not wild about this but I know it makes sense given timing issues & the spineless idjiots in the WH.

We have to hold our powder. The US today is dangerously stupid. They are literally burning their country to the ground. History tells us that this will not end well for them.

Vive la Canada!

Many months ago @meidastouch.com put out this video re Trump’s obvious cognitive impairment. He gets steadily worse and yet the #RepublicanParty stands by and allows a demented lunatic to set fire to the world while ghouls like unelected #StephenMiller & #RussellVought busily unleash their fascism.

As a nation, 🇺🇸USA loves to bully others, especially when no American blood need be shed (more sacred than others’ blood).
Just you watch them fall into line now behind their wartime President.
Then watch them realize they’re maybe going to get more than they bargained for, and think better of it.

Interesting. My sense for years has been that the vast majority of Americans have never understood or have never been taught this part of US history. The one where the US comes storming in for all the wrong reasons & destroys democracy in favour of tyrants & oligarchs. Over and over and over again.
The U.S. exports coups. But now they’re being staged right here at home out in the open. Kristi Noem says DHS is in California to “liberate” people from their elected leaders.

“it’s not so much the tariffs that are hurting them so much as the hurt pride..”

“…one of the governors told me that the Canadians were happy to be reaping the benefits of Trump’s global unpopularity ..”

Charlebois can, and should, get fucked.
That grocery-industry apologist guy is once again arguing that Canada's hugely profitable grocers are not to blame for the cost of groceries. Sure, they're making millions, but Canada's refusal to cave to American tariffs is the real problem.
Sylvain Charlebois: Forget 'elbows up' — it’s 'wallets out'
The message from grocers is clear: It’s time for Ottawa to rethink its retaliatory tariff strategy — before the cost becomes too steep for households and industry alike.
