'Trump is trying to break us': Carney wins in Canada riding fury at Trump to victory

'Trump is trying to break us': Carney wins in Canada riding fury at Trump to victory

Mark Carney rode an unprecedented surge of Canadian nationalism sparked by President Donald Trump's aggression and tariffs to victory.

Mark Carney: "The lessons of Brexit are beginning to be applied to the United States"

"When you break off or substantially rupture trade relationships with your major trading partners, Canada included - the most important trading partner of the United States"

"You end up with slower growth, higher inflation, higher interest rates, volatility, weaker currency, a weaker economy"

"We're seeing the early stages of that in the United States"

The World Is A Safer Place Without Trump

To thank Trump, Carney offered to make the US Canada’s eleventh province.

Republican Shenanigans

It’s not your imagination. Trump and the Republicans are drowning in dysfunction.
They can’t legislate — all they’ve got are executive orders.
Congress has passed only 6 bills — the fewest in a president’s first 100 days in over 70 years. - Christopher Webb

GOP Moderate: Cut Only $500 Billion From Medicaid, Not A Cent More!

Rep. Don Bacon, a key GOP moderate, is drawing a red line on Medicaid cuts.

The Nebraska Republican has privately told the White House he won’t accept more than $500 billion in reductions to the program, according to two people with direct knowledge of the matter. That could complicate the GOP’s effort to pass a domestic policy bill that is set to include an extension of President Donald Trump’s 2017 tax cuts.

Finally, A Bipartisan Bill Passed In The House
The House on Monday voted 409-2 to pass a bipartisan bill that would require online platforms to remove nonconsensual intimate imagery, including sexually explicit deepfakes and so-called “revenge porn.” The Take It Down Act now will be sent to President Donald Trump’s desk, and he has vowed to sign it into law.

Trump: ‘I run the country and the world’

Trump: ‘I run the country and the world’

President Trump shared his thoughts on how his two terms as president have differed, saying in a new interview with The Atlantic that this time around he’s leading “the country and the world.”

“The first time, I had two things to do — run the country and survive; I had all these crooked guys,” Trump said in the interview published Monday. “And the second time, I run the country and the world.”

In three days this president has gone from, “Vladimir, STOP!” to “I run the country and the world,” at breakneck speed. - mexic0la

How Long Before Rubio Flips On This?

Secretary of State Marco Rubio forgot the Gospel According to Donald Trump on Sunday by admitting that anyone on U.S. soil is entitled to a fair hearing before being removed from the country.

“Yes, of course,” Rudio said in response to the host’s question of whether the Fifth Amendment still applies under Trump during his morning interview with MSNBC. “That’s what the law says!”

“Hitler didn’t steal the power, his people voted for him, and then he destroyed his people.”

Look, all I know is that if Joe Biden had clearly fallen asleep at the state funeral for a pope, it would have dominated media coverage for days and been covered by political media as a scandal detrimental to the reputation of our country. - Charlotte Clymer

FBI Director Deletes Tweet Announcing Arrest Of Judge For Allegedly Helping Immigrant ‘Evade Arrest’

FBI Director Deletes Tweet Announcing Arrest Of Judge For Allegedly Helping Immigrant ‘Evade Arrest’

FBI Director Kash Patel announced on Friday morning via X that agents had arrested Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan for allegedly helping an undocumented immigrant “evade” federal agents — before he swiftly deleted the post.

According to the now-vanished statement, Dugan “intentionally misdirected federal agents away from” an immigrant they were actively pursuing.

OK, so now we’re the kind of country that arrests judges? If so I’d rather start with Clarence Thomas. - Andy Borowitz

This Should Be Interesting...

President Donald Trump is likely to be seated in the third row at Pope Francis’s funeral Saturday.

Despite being one of the first to confirm his attendance after Pope Francis died on Monday, the thin-skinned president—who famously mocked former President Joe Biden’s placement in the 14th row at Queen Elizabeth II’s 2022 funeral—will be seated several rows back at the state funeral in St Peter’s Basilica

George Santos Cried When Sentenced. Oh, Boo Hoo.

Former Rep. George Santos (R-NY) was sentenced to 87 months in prison after he was convicted of wire fraud and aggravated identify theft.

Santos made headlines during his short but turbulent tenure in Congress as a serial fabulist and outspoken supporter of President Donald Trump, but soon found it difficult to find allies even among his fellow Republicans after his lies and schemes came to light. He was expelled from Congress in December 2023 after being criminally indicted on 13 federal charges, the House Ethics Committee released a damning report chronicling his transgressions, and one of his fellow Republican congressmen accused Santos of defrauding him – and even his mother.
