I’ve crossed the Panama Canal 4 times (I’m weird, I know). This CNN report is dead on. More than 1/2 the revenue generated by the canal now comes from the NEW expanded parallel canal that the US did NOT pay for. Moreover, the treaty mandates EQUAL rates. US ships are NOT charged more. Trump lies.

The capitulation is complete. Jodi Ernst signals her support of Pete Hegseth, an alleged sexual predator. Ernst, a veteran and a survivor of sexual assault, has no principles. She's chosen to risk our national security by installing an unqualified hack to preserve her power.
