So Trump hurt America's relationship with Canada and made markets wobble all to "get" Canada to do things Canada had announced back in December in coordination with the Biden administration, do I have that right?

1/ OK, Democratic members of Congress in the US Senate. It’s time for some tough love.
I am aware your pollsters and consultants tell you things like “the American people want us to work together” and “ focus on prescription drug prices in the economy.”

Every Trump appointee must be rejected on the basis that Donald Trump is an illegitimate president who leads an illegitimate party, which makes all of his appointees automatically illegitimate.
If Democrats aren’t going to oppose, then they’re going to have to be replaced with people who will.

The Senate confirmed Marco Rubio as Secretary of State by a vote of 99-0.
Democrats offer an endless supply of goodwill to Republicans that will never be reciprocated.

Take time to read EVERY WORD of this thread.
Where are our people??
Dems in power cannot, once again, depend on overworked, unpaid volunteers for counter-propaganda measures.
Stop sitting idly by and expecting a different result.
“Insanity.”

So sorry. Yet another rant:
We are losing the information war in real-time. LA is on fire, and the conservatives are seizing the moment, drafting on the fear, the panic, and the pain to target democratic officials, policies, and power centers and salting the earth along the way.
A thread. 🧵

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million.
That is a lie.
The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.
