These feelings from Elon Musk's ketamine-addled brain aren't facts.

What is a fact is that Space Karen receives billions of dollars from the U.S. government and is "mooching off other governments" like China.

We got a message from the university to remove any use of the "DEI", "diversity", "equity", or "inclusion" from all public-facing documents. They said that even "biodiversity" is being flagged by the federal government. We live in the dumbest timeline.

Libraries are great for the books, sure, but it's also nice to have a quiet and safe space to sit and think- a place where no one is trying to sell you anything.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: He choked.

The market started to tank, and suddenly, he said, “Oh, didn’t you guys already have a plan to deal with the border back in December? I love that—I’ll take that.”

This is Mr. Art of the Deal.

One failed attempt at a shoe bomb 23 years ago and we all still take our shoes off at the airport.

One failed attempt at violently overthrowing our country 4 years ago and we allow the guy who orchestrated it to be certified as President so he can do it again.

Disgraceful.
