FUN FACT: trump CAVED yet again today, this time to Canada, to postpone his tariffs another 30 days. The border security plans Canada is enacting were ALREADY planned while President Biden was in office.

The international community is booing the US national anthem, the vast majority of fentanyl comes in via US citizens, and the Biden administration secured the same deal of 10,000 border troops in 2021 without plunging the country (and markets) into chaos. But sure, great work 👍

Don't let Trump spin you, he backed down on the Mexican tariffs when the market dropped out, GOP electeds finding a backbone to complain, and the WSJ calling it the "dumbest trade war in history". Trump blinked and embarrassed himself plain and simple.

Tariffs will shut down North American auto production within a week, the industry warns. Canada’s auto sector exported $51 billion worth of vehicles in 2023 and 93% of them went to the U.S. Within days, the entire industry could shut down.

Elon Musk has forced his way into the system that pays your Social Security checks and tax refunds. He likely now has access to your Social Security number.

submitted 28 days ago • 688 comments

Elon Musk is NOT a legitimate government official -- he was not approved by Congress, and he has ZERO legal authority. He cannot shut down agencies. He cannot access Social Security numbers and payment info for millions of Americans. Take him to court and SHUT HIM DOWN.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: So here’s how it’s going to go down—this is going to be very rough. But the big wake-up call is for our American friends. For example, Kentucky—the number one purchaser of Kentucky spirits in the world is Canada, and all our provinces have just pulled it off the shelves.

The Constitution gives Congress the power of the purse, not the White House. These funds have already been allocated. They help families afford food, heat their homes, pay for childcare, go to the doctor, and more. This is worse than Project 2025.
