Pete Navarro claims the US is going to redraw our borders. Not in a million years. This is the Trump/Putin playbook. Ukraine is the forward trench in the fight for democracy.

When Mike Myers wore his "Canada Is Not For Sale" t-shirt on SNL, he mouthed a secret code: "elbows up." It's a reference to the great Gordie "Mr. Elbows" Howe who punished those that messed with his team. You heard him Canada: elbows up. If anyone asks why, tell them that Mike Myers sent you.

The Trump-Vance-Musk regime is not only undermining democracy in the US. It is laying the foundation for undermining democracies around the world. The emerging battle will be global democracy vs. a global oligarchy. The US is emerging on the side of global oligarchy.

Well diplomatic disaster yep But USers did not get what it wanted, those -- "Raw" earth metals, in large part because real fighting people know you can never trust a bully. And a bully who has betrayed you before (hint: nukes) and won't ink an agreement? Ok it is obvious. So much for dealing

The exchange between Felonius the First, the Duke of Sofas & President Zelensky put a knot in my stomach that is making me want to hurl. It’s beyond disgraceful. The only thing to say at this point is #SlavaUkraïni! #DemVoice1

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

Watching Zelensky's face as Trump talks in the presser, it is clear to me what he thinks - my mom was Ukrainian and she used those same little face gestures. If it wasn't so serious I would be rofl

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA. Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps. Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems. See how this works?

I guess Trump and Vance thought Ukraine should just give the US the minerals, just like they think Canada should give them the steel and aluminium. Didn't know that's how capitalism works. Sounds more like old style imperialism

The federal civilian worker payroll totaled $271 billion in 2022. The annual cost of permanently extending Trump's tax cuts that primarily benefited rich individuals? $400 billion. Keep this in mind as Trump and DOGE lay off thousands of federal workers.
