People are changing the labels on Wayne G's wine: "a merlot that is sad and 2 faced" "as weak as the name-sakes moral fibre." There is a reason why Canadians dominate comedy - we are wickedly funny. And when push comes to shove we play for keeps (ie. Kharmalov's ankle). Sucks to be you Wayne.

“We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests.” -FDR, 1941

What Donald Trump is allowing Elon Musk and his DOGE team to do is not an audit. It is a coup. This an incredibly dangerous moment—and it is all the more dangerous if people don’t understand what is happening. https://youtu.be/jrE0DOEcbRE

Trump supporters will never turn on him unless his policies negatively impact them. Germans didn't turn on Hitler b/c they were suddenly aghast about the treatment of Jews or Hitler's insanity. Only when their country was in ruins did they "turn."

Twitter/X is a dangerous propaganda site. It's beyond me why anyone is still there. I had deleted all my tweets and locked my account... but deleted it yesterday. Please leave Twitter, everyone.

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

The actuaries believe in climate change.

Alec Baldwin you're flying low
