The absence, to date, of any reports in US media citing anonymous aides saying something like, “Trump is dead serious about this,” has been an important variable in how I’ve interpreted the Trump-🇨🇦 story. This one breaks the pattern.
This is new: “A source with direct knowledge of the discussions told NBC News that Trump is heavily focused on Canada in conversations with aides, who believe he is completely serious about making the country the 51st state—even with Trudeau out of power”

Trump's quest to conquer Canada is confusing everyone
Canadians and Republicans alike are confounded as President Donald Trump increasingly links a trade war to his push to annex America's northern neighbor.

The internal inconsistency of Trump’s claim that they “don’t need anything from Canada” while simultaneously threatening annexation will never cease to amaze. If we’re useless, why demand we submit?

Trade war truce? Not so fast. Trump has Canada's auto sector in his sights

Fentanyl was not his main target. His team has made that clear

One trade war down, two to go — maybe more. U.S. President Donald Trump has dialled back tariffs, but his biggest target is now coming into focus. And it's bad news if you're one of the hundreds of th...

Great quotes here from a Canadian official — viewing the provincial premiers as rubes who went to DC, learned it’s not actually that easy dealing with Trump, paid $85,000 for a meeting with senior-mid-level staff, got publicly ridiculed after by that Trump staff

That doesn't mean Project 2025 isn't also heavily in the mix. It definitely is! But the assault is coming from different angles: Project 2025. The tech broligarchs. The America First nativists. And it's genuinely unclear how much coordination there is between Musk and the other Trumpist factions.

One of the real problems is that too many people conveniently believe the opposite of diversity is merit, and the opposite of inclusion is high standards.

Yeah, that’s just not the case.

Any position held by a Democrat that isn’t shared by 95% of Americans is a fatal political error but Trump can pardon people who were convicted of assaulting police officers and call for the elimination of FEMA and it’s cool
Trump: "I'll be signing an EO to begin process of fundamentally reforming & overhauling or maybe getting rid of FEMA. I think, frankly, FEMA is not good. When you have a problem like this, you want to use your state to fix it & not waste time calling FEMA..I think we're gonna recommend FEMA go away"

An expensive, stupid and deadly self-inflicted wound to his own Province by weakening its largest city and economic engine, all due to pettiness and to distract and rage-farm for political gain. Imagine weakening your Province’s success and endangering its people knowingly just to help yourself.
NEW: Premier Doug Ford's bike lane removal law has now been passed by the Ontario legislature.
The government has been preparing to remove three lanes: University Ave. Bloor St. and Yonge St.
