Canadians can see how the extremist playbook is tearing apart Europe and the United States. MAGA MAPLE have been setting up the ground for it to be unleashed here.
The hate storm is coming.
We need to call this guy out for his manipulations and rage baiting.

The rules have changed. Mike Johnson wants to wait until the official results come in October 14th to swear in Grijalva.
Grijalva: I was looking at the example of now-Representative Walkinshaw from Virginia, who was elected two weeks ago Tuesday. The following Wednesday—less than 24 hours later—he was sworn in, with unofficial results.

So for me, apparently the rules have now changed in just two weeks.

Republicans don't need a single democrat to keep the government open. If the government shuts down, it's because republicans want it to.

Kash Patel is asked about why Ghislaine Maxwell was transferred to a lower security prison shortly after meeting w. Deputy Atty Gen. Todd Blanche

His response included calling Sen Adam Schiff (D-CA) a "fraud" & a "baffoon"

I've never seen that before in a Congressional hearing

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.

As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.

End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

The only thing I can say about Keir Starmer is thank God he wasn't PM back in May 1940.
He will go along dutifully with whatever Trump claims.
Canadians would be fools to think this punter would have our back in a showdown with Trump.

Pierre Poilievre shows his utter ignorance every time he opens his mouth. It’s disturbing that a large percentage of Canadians fell for his lies and half-truths. Thank goodness the Conservatives lost the election.

We're already seeing decline in US trade being offset by increased trade elsewhere -

With leadership to stay organized and not bow to attempts at stirring regional divisions, and addressing internal trade issues, we could wind up better off after all of this than when we started.
