a silhouette of trump's head

I'm so tired of him. I'm tired of people pretending he's not an idiot. I'm tired of his lies. I'm tired of his sickening amorality. I'm tired of his face, his voice, his smirk. I'm tired of his inability to say even 1 thing remotely kind of humble or appropriate, ever.

CHARLIE ANGUS ON TRUMP'S MAGA AMBASSADOR TO CANADA
YouTube video by Charlie Angus CHARLIE ANGUS ON TRUMP'S MAGA AMBASSADOR TO CANADA

Trump's ambassador to Canada has a long and dark history of disinformation and interference in the politics of other countries.
So when he tells Canada to "get over it" regarding Trump's threat to our nation, don't believe him.
Check out my analysis.

Who Speaks for Battle Riverโ€“Crowfoot? Trading a Hometown Hero for a Has-Been Hack

โ€œThey just replaced your representativeโ€”your choiceโ€”with a man who lost somewhere else. As if your vote were a token. As if your trust were transferrable. As if this riding existed only to solve the partyโ€™s problems, not to choose its own voice.

Thatโ€™s not leadership.
Thatโ€™s entitlement.โ€

No Member of Parliament should give up a democratically earned seat for PP to run in a by-electionโ€ฆ a waste of taxpayer dollars to ignore a new group of constituents in his angry, mean and spiteful pursuit to be PM. Go away, now. Canada is moving on from your toxic politics. #ElbowsUp #CanadaStrong

This election is not about Trump.
It is about standing up for Canada and defying the rage-baiters, conspiracy trolls and those who trash our nation to score points.
This election is about you Pierre Poilievre.
We reject your hate politics.
Canadians do your best. Don't accept the worst.

Why is Pierre Poilievre covering up the coming US civil war? Look, if we're going to treat scenario reports as gospel, let's go big

Another low for the Conservativesโ€ฆ just trying to distract from their misleading platform math. Do better.

THIS! โฌ‡๏ธ

This is exactly why people I know โ€” who voted Conservative their entire livesโ€” voted for Mark Carney at advance polls, for the first time, ever.

Welcome to the โ€˜torture chamberโ€™: Internal document offers window into Conservativesโ€™ strategy for parliamentary committees An internal Conservative party strategy document viewed by the Star shows how the party uses parliamentary committee meetings to maximize social media exposure and advance its political narratives.

Excellent, revealing story from @raisapatel.bsky.social on how the CPC tried to turn committees into social media chum, while attacking expertise when possible. www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

Thatโ€™s not how the stock market works, Pierre! This will not help the average Canadian. This is why he wants to defund the CBC. They call out his bullshit with evidence and good reporting.

I wrote this document before the writ was dropped to bring attention to the plight of community museums and their lack of funding. Seeing what is being done to museums in the US, I canโ€™t stress enough that Canada needs to do the exact opposite and fund our cultural heritage! ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ
