This is blatantly illegal. A president can’t go into the oil business and then decide where to spend the money. We are completely untethered from our founding document with a lawless president and a Republican Congress which has abdicated all Constitutional authority.

This is, of course, a hypothetical scenario. But it's scary as fuck!
The arrest of Mark Carney will bring peace, prosperity, and freedom to North America - Halifax Examiner
As with the once-independent countries of Texas and California before it, Canada rightly should become a state under the flag of the United States.

SCAM ALERT: There are a lot of fake stories and social media posts out there saying driving rules are changing for seniors.

There is no truth to this. There are no changes planned in Nova Scotia in 2026.

This is part of a misinformation campaign spreading across Canada.

Trump replaced one Venezuelan dictator with two: himself and Maduro's top lackey. Then he declared that Venezuela's opposition—which represents a majority of the people—is irrelevant, and added that he'll be ruling Venezuela and stealing its oil. Anyone celebrating is delusional.

I got up early this morning to get some cooking prep done, when, low and behold I had a visitor at the back door. She visits sporadically sometimes, months, even a year will go by without seeing her. And she's weirdly obsessed with me. 🙄😅

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm feeling very underpaid. What special skills warrant this level of compensation compared with a nurse or a doctor or a social worker?
The richest Canadian CEOs now make 248 times more than the average worker wage in Canada. The @policyalternatives.ca's new CEO Pay report shows how the gulf between the rich and the rest of us keeps growing and what to do about it. @davidmaccdn.bsky.social

You know the Epstein Files are bad when the orange felon bombs Venezuela, murders their citizens and kidnaps their leader all to distract from his sex crimes with children.

This is what happens when you give a deranged criminal full power instead of sending him to prison.

President Obama couldn’t create a healthcare program without full scale condemnation.

President Biden couldn’t forgive student debt without calls for him to be prosecuted.

The orange felon covers up child sex crimes and bombs other countries and republicans are pleased.

Maduro is a brutal and oppressive dictator of Venezuela.

Trump has no legitimate legal basis for military action against Venezuela under United States or international law.

Both of those facts are simultaneously true.

Good morning.

You are waking up to the irony of a convicted felon president, who spent years avoiding his own criminal trials, capturing the president of a sovereign nation and holding him captive for criminal trials.

So I guess Trump woke up planning to invade Iran today but his handlers were able to distract him by bringing him to an interior design warehouse, then he just decided to play golf after instead.

It’s crazy how so many in media stayed away from talking about Trump’s obvious mental and physical decline explicitly when some of us have been beating the drum about it for a few years relentlessly, but after a legacy outlet (WSJ) does a story now it’s suddenly ok to go there.
