Proud Canadian. West Coast. Retired sailor. New grandfather. Golfs poorly!
Charlie Kirk is just this week’s version of an American being shot on a US campus. Story will be OBE in a day or two when the next shooting occurs. It’s not news… it’s just Wednesday!

Art of the deal is raising the tariff to 145% then cutting it almost in half despite the fact that China has made no concessions and has completely ignored you. Xi just sits back at laughs at our orange clown.

Cybertrucks are piling up -- apparently no one wants to buy them -- but they can't stop making them, b/c shutting the factory down is too expensive. Great work all around.
Tesla Cybertruck inventory goes through the roof
Tesla Cybertruck is experiencing a significant increase in unsold inventory in the US and facing huge challenges in meeting initial sales expectations.

And it begins. When you have a deranged lunatic in the White House with a track record of witholding military support in a crisis as a way to blackmail you and aid your enemies then any sane Western country is not going to invest in American weapons or tech.
🚨MAJOR DEVELOPMENT

Portugal has cancelled plans to buy F-35 fighter jets from the US and will look to replace their F-16s with European fighters.

Who 🇨🇦s are & how strong our resolve is can only be tested under stress.

Some of us will disappoint each other, others will emerge from the fire as the light.

Trump, like a lot of Americans, will never understand the visceral British "need" for irony.

“Casts doubt on value of NATO summit in June.” Ok… here we go!
This needed to happen - otherwise we were sleepwalking into disaster.
Blimey. Asked about Trump, Merz says he’s in close contact with European leaders about becoming “independent” from US (and confesses “I never thought I’d say that on TV show”). Casts doubt on value of NATO summit in June.

This from a die-hard Atlanticist. Things are moving fast.

The Trump curse strikes again. He couldn’t just stay out of it. First the KC Chiefs and now the US Hockey team. He’s on a roll.
