Canadians were generally not aware the extent to which we placed ourselves willingly as an economic colony of the US.
As long as free trade was the basis for thus relationship we were happy to send unrefined raw materials down south and importing the finished product not to mention American services

Sometimes, someone shows up and completely surprises you. Marjorie Taylor Green is one total blindsight.
She resigned this week saying "I refuse to be a battered wife hoping it will all go away and get better".
Wow mic drop!

When I was in my 20s and Reagan was POTUS I hated his guts as much as I hate Trump's guts today. I've learnt a lot since then, including that I was wrong about Reagan.

Big election today in Argentina, flying under the radar because of Trump sucking all the attention oxygen in Asia.
It big because if Millei's party doesn't get more than 34% of parliament, he cannot veto legislation that will undo all his reforms so dar, and if that happens, the peso is toast.

Love Tod's wisdom! Trump's mistake with Canada is the same as Putin's misreading of Ukraine's will for self determination.
Canadians see Trump's nakedness and are so bored of it!

Doug Ford airs a primetime ad quoting Reagan opposition to tariffs. Trump gets pissed, breaks off trade talks and then imposes an extra 10% tariff accusing Canada of wanting to influence the upcoming Supreme Court decision.
Does Trump understand that his behaviour is undermining his own legal case?

Scott Bessent is a fascinating character. The man worked for Drukenmiller who worked for Soros in the 80s and 90s, left and came back to work for Soros in the 00s and now works for Trump, a sworn mortal ennemy of Soros!

Classic illustration of the difference between association and causation. Any undergraduate student in any science program understands this.
But not the Great Donald. He believes that what he 'feels' is the truth and that he is never wrong.

Earlier this week, President Trump claimed that using Tylenol during pregnancy is linked to an increased risk of autism in children. But does research support that? We spoke with an epidemiologist who led one of the largest studies on the topic.
Is Tylenol Use During Pregnancy Connected To Autism?
We dig into the details of the science of Tylenol and autism with a researcher who led one of the largest studies on the topic.

This chart illustrates, to me, the misappraisals that start to explain why so many are either pissed or hopeless these days. The young and the left tend to catastrophize ecological and economic dangers, and the right wingers tend to catastrophize moral decline.

I condemn Kirk's assassination; physical violence should not be the answer to vile speech.
I also can't help to note that karma is a bitch. In his words, "it is worth to have some gun deaths every single year to protect the God-given right of gun ownership."

The Feds taking a stake in Intel? I mean, if Obama or Biden had proposed such a thing, Trump would have branded them Marxist Lenninists. His hypocrisy is so immense Dante would have had to rewrite the divine comedy. 6th circle of hell not deep enough for the Don!

Criticism about Israel's strike against Iran and leading up to Trump's decision to join the attack, ran along three main themes: 1. This is the same as Iraq inexistent WMD debacle, when it turned out there were no WMD in Iraq, it was just a false pretext to start a catastrophic war.

Interesting read of Conservative Part of Canada costed platform released today. Aside from whether the numbers add up - they rarely do regardless of the party - it's the pro union attempted metamorphosis that is most incredible. Surely a nod to what is happening south of the border
