Rush Limbaugh kept talking about me as an “info babe” and I finally said I’d go to dinner with him.
He was smart, funny, charming & I asked him about his vitriol on air.
He said oh that’s just an act - everyone knows it’s not real - it’s entertainment.

Jeff Goldberg didn’t share the war plans in full because he’s not a traitor.

Oh and the guardrails” that supposedly protect democracy and sanity in the US are GONE.
Presidency, Congress, Supreme Court, much of legacy media.
Bought, bribed, extorted, frightened, etc.
The norms that created the friendship between Canada and the us are being destroyed.

I live on the boarder with Canada — I am horrified to say that a lot of people in the US have no idea because “hey politics is just to negative and stressful”
Whatttttt???? No shit!
I am ashamed to be American.
Canada is smart to prepare for ANYTHING.

In addition to MAGA there are a huge percentage of people here who just shrug and go meh, it’s jus politics it’ll sort itself out.

My background is news.
Watching the US news media …
No words, well I might have words but it’s often the Munch SCREAM.

Nearly 90 million of those ELIGIBLE to vote in the US didn’t vote.
Of registered voters:
Approximately 1/3 didn’t vote, 1/3 voted Harris/Walz and 1/3 voted Trump.
Looking at it that way, 2/3 of Americans decided to opt out of or vote against Democracy, history, sanity.

Dr. Dewald! Great to see you here 💙💙💕💕💙💙

I get that —-
I worked hard for Harris/Walz but I feel a white hot anger at “all Americans”
And I’m one of them!
March 11, 2025 at 1:09 PM
A huge chunk of Americans aren’t even paying attention!
With a group over the weekend:
“Well I just don’t DO politics.”
“It’s all bad news why bother?”
“They’re ALL equally bad, corrupt,fill in the word.”
Those outside the US SHOULD be worried!

And support others doing the work.
Whatever moves it forward.

Is there, in your estimate, STILL a rule of law to protect?

This (waves hands) feels like a Carl Hiaasan and Stephen King mashup.
What.
Happened.
