Burgum goes full Pyongyang on Fox & Friends: "Watching President Trump in the beast, leading the pace car, leading the field of the most talented drivers in the world, kicking off the entire Nascar season for America, when he was doing that it reminded me of how he's actually leading the world."

We now confront the unprecedented problem of an unelected South African half-trillionaire holding hostage an unstable and vengeful president with a thermonuclear arsenal and a barely Republican (221-214) Congress as the rough beast of tyranny slouches toward Bethlehem. What could possibly go wrong?

Poilievre’s new slogan “the border is broken” reminds us that when last in government, his crew slashed border security:
*every agent that tracked child porn
*19 dog-sniffing drug teams
*fully half the intelligence agents who track terrorists and gun & drug traffickers.
Great work, Agent Anschluss.
