Incredibly moving Justin Trudeau remarks:

"We have fought and died alongside you....During your darkest hours...we were always there. Standing with you, grieving with you, the American people....Canadians are a little perplexed as to why our closest friends and neighbors are choosing to target us."

BREAKING: Vice President Kamala Harris just presided over the peaceful certification of the election results on this day, January 6, 2024.

She certified her own defeat: without drama or vitriol, no call to storm the Capitol. There was no broken glass, no officers attacked, no property damaged.

Shooting horses is terrible!! 😢 Annoying that RTD won’t show you the article. The horse survived after surgeries.
Brady was sentenced to 37 years and will serve 12. Kelley was sentenced to 36 years and will serve 3.

Seems like maybe part of the problem is turning to 80 year-olds who don’t know what TikTok is and are just now realizing people get their information differently to ask them what the problem is? newrepublic.com/article/1888...

The types of Trump supporters I know are either ignorant or pick-me. I don’t know anyone wealthy enough be immune from his policies.

Interesting perspective. 18 year old first time voters were 10 years old when Trump was first elected. To them he’s always been present in the political scene and his behavior is seen as normal “politics as politics”
Gen Z has grown up with the influence of President-elect Donald Trump saturating their everyday lives. The younger generation of new voters discuss his cultural impact and his influence on their political views. This one through the Gen Z lens of Va. voters:

So many industries rely on immigrants. Not just farming and construction but domestic and hospitality industries as well: Dish washers in restaurants, cleaning service in hotel etc. we rely on their hard work to keep the economy moving.
