Proud of you, Janet Mills. Tell that pompous moron to stick his federal funding up his arse!! Don’t stand for his BS for one instant. The only thing I wish you’d done while you were at it was ask him about the score in last night’s hockey game 🇨🇦!!

The government should draw up plans for Tesla tariffs to hit Musk where it hurts, if Trump follows through with his threats to the UK steel industry. Trump and Musk can't be allowed to bully the UK while the Conservatives and Nigel Farage cheer them on from the sidelines.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Trudeau: "There's not a snowball's chance in hell that Canada will ever be the 51st state"

"We need Saint Francis. Now that kindness is countercultural, we need his extremes of wild charity to pull us back toward it. And we need his asceticism...his merry disdain of health and comfort and security, is a rebuke to our self-care...the only stability is the bottomlessness of divine love."

From Elizabeth Bruenig: "The tendency of humankind to be self-serving and deceitful is part of what makes me believe that Christianity is at its purest and most beautiful when it is counterintuitive and unwieldy—that is, when it is least amenable to human convenience."

Pierre Poilievre's Conservatives were coasting to a massive victory in the next election until Donald Trump started rattling the world's biggest sabre at Canada. Now, can they rise to the occasion — or will they shrink from the moment? www.nationalobserver.com/2025/02/07/o...

Speak up and fight back, Canada! It’s the patriotic thing to do. Canadians, you need to speak up now, fight back, hold onto all the patriotism you showed since Trump first threatened to gun us down. It’s the best kind of patriotism. #Opinion

They say that 1939 Britain stood alone against a despot. That's not true. Canadian kids were signing up in the thousands. We were there to defend British skies. Now Canada stands alone in the face of despotism.and there is crickets from our European allies. But we've got this. Canada. #strongasfuck

The Wall Street Journal isn’t pulling any punches tonight. “The Dumbest Trade War in History. Trump will impose 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico for no good reason.” With big consequences for both countries that are each other’s biggest trading partners and closest allies. Or at least we were.

What the president has tried to do in the last 24 hours is illegal. His actions threatened millions of Illinoisans' access to health care, food, and even fuel to heat their homes. I will stay vigilant in defense of IL because if you come for my people, you come through me.

Trump is doing everything Putin wants him to do: abandoning our nation’s core values, attacking longtime allies, and picking Tulsi Gabbard for a critical national intelligence role. Putin has us right where he wants us, with his puppet as our President. America first? youtu.be/iPXXFfXk5aM

Lying about immigrant communities like Aurora makes us less safe. It also does nothing to fix our broken immigration system, which we desperately need to do. President Trump––rather than political posturing, work with Democrats to secure the border & pass bipartisan reforms.

What we’re seeing is horrific. Trump and his cult are already committing cruel and disturbing acts which hurt not only America, but also the entire world. The heartless pathological liar is implementing the infamous Project 2025—and the repercussions could be felt for years to come.
