Sending prayers to the US

Leo kept me up all night last night. My poor old man. I think he’s developing dementia. So it’s an early night for us all. And they’re all getting gabapentin 😆😆😂 And mommy is drinking a little bit of wine Time for bed

I can’t imagine how the generals and admirals of colour, or who were female sitting in that auditorium today listening to that speech felt. Being told, however delicately, that they were unqualified. Weak. Not warriors That they were promoted because they met some quota. How demoralizing

Private conservative club for the wealthy claims it can’t find any Canadian “servers”. This means: - the wages are crap and below comparable server jobs; - the servers are treated like crap by the “members”; - the club is lying. Which is it? www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

🚨 Important myth bust! 👇 Are Childhood Vaccines ‘Overloading’ the Immune System? No. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/14/h... Reality: "...the immune reactions produced by vaccines are 'minuscule' compared with those that children experience on a daily basis..." #VaccinesWork #ScienceMatters!

As a Canadian, as a human being, I’m outraged by the remarks of the senior members of the US government. But listening to the measured thoughtful tones of CNN anchors, I’m wondering, where’s the rage? Where’s the fury? Enough w/ the balance and neutrality, Your country is in danger. Act like it.

Hillary Clinton was excoriated when she described the fringe of the GOP as deplorable. But there is no uproar from the GOP when Trump describes entire cities as being places where the enemy lives.

I wouldn’t care that America has a dictator as a president if I didn’t have American family and friends living there I wouldn’t care he’s destroying the fabric of American society, except he also threatens my country. America is the crazy neighbour next-door. Who’s about to set the house on fire

Once again: GO FUCK YOURSELF YOU DEMENTIA-ADDLED, IGNORANT, HATE-FILLED, OVERFLOWING DIAPER BABY. Please just seriously just fuck off and die, taking every single person you’ve ever appointed into a position with you, and everyone they appointed as well. Maybe a group trip on the Titan submarine?

@just-lu.bsky.social blocked me in the middle of a conversation about guns in the US. Responded first with an insult about Canadians being drunks as if that was somehow an intelligent answer. America is in a bad place. I’m not sure how they’ll fix it but looking at the 2nd amendment would be a start

If Jack is weaponizing illegally leaked documents as a candidate, just imagine what he would do as governor with New Jerseyans' personal data.

The Trump admin illegally leaked my unredacted personnel file to Jack's allies to try to smear me. The full force of the federal government is being weaponized to defeat me — I’m asking you to help me fight back! Donate here: secure.ngpvan.com/NGY2cCnISU6c...

She told America. We told America. Now, it's here.

So Canadians are not going to be visiting anymore if that’s how they’re going to be treated Those snowbirds are customers. Clientele. People who are spending money. They can and will take their money somewhere else.

Never thought I’d be seriously considering the benefits of a military coup overthrowing our authoritarian government, but here I am… what think you, Generals and Admirals?

Can’t wait to meet this trans gender, boyfriend, roommate of Tyler Robinson. He is apparently the reason why Robinson is being labeled as left. No mention of Fuentes or Groypers. No mention of white Christian nationalists. Barely mentioning his online gaming.

Ok so the only part of the US Constitution that isn’t subject to change is the 2nd Amendment? Got it!

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

so I wake up to find that Hegseth summoned the entire brass to tell them we now protect and revere rapists and war criminals in the US military, followed by Trump holding a mini campaign rally and whining about lack of applause, and this is somehow basically the best case scenario

They don't look like they signed up for this.

He's telling us what he's doing. Using the military to suppress protest. At some point the opposition needs to listen to him and adjust strategy.

If Biden has said even one of these things, the GOP would’ve erupted

Saddam Hussein did this too. He attacked people in his own country, because they weren’t his people.

Comedians are NOT the major issue today, but those doing the Riyadh Comedy Festival while muttering about no free speech on college campuses are displaying pretty stunning ‘buy me daddy’ hypocrisy. @bradwheelerglobe.bsky.social has an acute, eviscerating piece on it in today’s Globe and Mail.

If only Donald Trump could be fired on the spot.

We have to stop letting criminals serve out their prison terms as presidents.

Given the scenes at the Ryder Cup, I don’t see how the current ‘United States’ can possibly be allowed to host the Olympics and the World Cup. They’re unfit for that honour at the moment.

And using Federal Employees as pawns for political negotiations

I can’t think of any reason to completely wreck the ag markets in entire United States other than purposeful sabotage. A fire sale on farmland.

I sure am glad we have a president who will send a pilot making $80k/yr to kill a Colombian fisherman making $3k/yr in a boat worth $500 with a missile that costs $1,000,000 to keep the public from learning about all the times he sexually assaulted underage human trafficking victims. #Epstein

The man behind the US’ summary execution of civilians off the coast of Venezuela is Stephen Miller.

Good morning. Waking up to Pete Hegseth’s 1930s speech to the generals Oh my God. He’s a maniac looking for a war.

Preview of Tuesday's Quantico meeting

Poilievre is going to cause a Canadian version of January 6. His language is now even more toxic and aggressive. He’s whipping the base and his PPC adoptees. CSIS/INSET need to be on this guy. He’s trying to start a civil war. #cdnpoli
