Canadian MP Charlie Angus: When we see people being pulled off the streets, when we see students at universities being grabbed, detained, and kidnapped, and when we see Kristi Noem filming this disgusting video, we’re looking at a nation we no longer recognize. We don’t want to be like that nation.

No matter what side of the aisle you are on, you should be appalled that a billionaire thinks he has the right to buy elections like this.

According to MAGA, if you hit a car with a baseball bat because you don’t like the company’s owner you’re a “terrorist”, but if you hit a Capitol police officer with a baseball bat because you don’t like the results of an election, you’re a “patriot.”

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

Trump's right hand man (literally) just casually giving the Nazi salute... twice.

We are witnessing the beginning stages of the “rug pull presidency.”

Trump, his family, and his cronies are already profiting off the office to the tune of billions of dollars.

Your life will not get better. Not one bit.

In the end, it will the American people left holding the bag.

The TikTok shutdown was a political stunt manufactured to boost Donald Trump’s popularity.

It did not work. Many on TikTok are now turning on Trump and TikTok leadership.
