Something the US needs to accept too is that without a large-scale correction imposing consequences on a large number of people, the crisis of governance here will continue indefinitely

Dershowitz: The predecessor on your show described Epstein as a convicted pedophile. He pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. That’s not a pedophile.

Trump approvals down 0.2 points this week. AWESOME! Maybe in another 10 years "Americans" collectively will actually GAF that they have a child-raping malignant narcissistic dementia patient as a president.
I mean, probably not, but "dare to dream" and all that.

I want to shout this from the rooftops! Yeah, our GDP growth is lower than the USA, but part of the reason for that is we *haven't* funded our economy with immense debt.
Only 🇨🇦 and 🇩🇪 have the highest credit rating in the G7, because we aren't profligate.

Many Canadian economists worry about our real GDP growth relative to the US counterpart over the last decade (often in per capita terms) while also worrying about Canada's federal deficits being too big. But you cannot have your cake and eat it too. Huge US deficits have been hugely stimulative.

The Kremlin disguised a nearly $100 mn payment to Trump in the form of a brokered real estate deal... and both Jeffrey Epstein and William Pulte were involved in the deal. That's very interesting.

Michael Wolff suggests in an email (in 2015) that if Trump were to say in public that he had never been to Epstein’s house or on his plane, Epstein would have leverage over him.
Which…means that Trump was at his house and on his plane and that Epstein had the receipts to prove it. So.
