Semi-retired teacher, father, grandfather, and traveler. I devote my time and attention to the Canadiens, Raptors, Roughriders, music, golf, photography, good books and stimulating conversations. No time for conservative bullshit. Formerly precocious.

It’s a bitter pill we must all swallow, but the United States is no longer the leader of the free world. In fact, the Trump government is an enemy of the free world.

You know, in all that dystopian fiction that’s been written, they really underplayed how fucking farcical the whole thing would be.

Rieckhoff: And what I would tell folks is: if they treat veterans like this, if they treat retired generals like this, how do you think they're going to treat everyone else? How do you think they're going to treat you? We are just first.

“Those nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

If you’re an elected representative and need a SWAT team at your town hall, you’re doing something wrong.

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a ‘DEI hire.’

Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.

One of these days we're gonna have to reckon with the fact that "money that I spend which does not directly benefit me is a waste" is a popular sentiment.

I think we should state plainly that this is selfish on its face.

And stupid when you have awareness which extends beyond your nose.

Elon Musk used all the freedoms and opportunities of the USA, the country that defeated the Nazis, to become the wealthiest human being on earth.
So how does he return the favor?
He salutes the Nazis, then leads in the destruction of the Country made him.
To me- that’s as traitorous as it gets.

Way to go, Trumpers, you killed democracy because you worshipped white supremacy.

What an asinine hill for a country to DEI on.

Can’t believe the updates from The US…

Two emotionally detached narcissists engineering what appears to be a mass looting of the country

Triggering culture, tariff and diplomatic wars

…while rolling out orders that will hurt the pockets, safety & health of its citizens.
