Opinion | Being Latino in the United States Should Not Be a Crime

Yet another NYT editorial reporting that polls show a majority of American disapprove of a Trump policy. Got to ask yourself where are these citizens who polls reveal want gun reform, legal abortions and healthcare reform when it’s time to vote.

Another day another cascade of petty grievances. Too bad there isn’t a Nobel Prize for the most “ Grumpy Man of the Year”

Trump is a toddler. So treat him as one. Evidently he was frustrated that Carney has persisted in pursuing Canada’s interests so he has taken his marbles and ended the game. Time to explore whether China’s marbles are in play. In a choice between Dictators Xi may be best available alternative.

Trump asserting “Canada cheated” and taking a hissy fit is yet more evidence that trade negotiations are going nowhere. Time for Carney to embrace China.

Alarming statement. We want to believe Robinson was a twisted incel motivated by hate. His friend described Robinson as fairly typical of a young man his age from Utah. WTF

According to the good doctor seasonal flu meets his criteria for being a sexually transmitted disease. Maybe only homosexuals get the flu in Kansas.

After Court Defeat, Trump Warns of Economic Chaos From Loss of Tariffs

NYT reports on White House response to Courts decision on tariffs. Apparently only the Supreme Court can save the American economy from disaster. No mention of any potential action by Congress to provide constitutional cover and legitimize the tariffs (tax increase). SAD

Don’t frequent Vegas brothels but expect if he added some red velvet the Oval Office could replicate the look

It’s thoughtless barbs like these that exhaust the goodwill of neighbours. Elbows up!

No surprise - Steve not a brown sauce kinda guy.

So embarrassing for so many Americans. Too bad Ukraine is on his monthly list.

Trump: I solved 6 wars, I am averaging a war per month. Including wars that lasted 500 years.

Hassett surpasses Ludnick for “sycophant of the week” award.

Is America becoming a “shit hole” country : failing institutions, weakened public services, political grift and corruption, civil rights violations and declining economy. Sad!

Trump Says U.S. Ending Trade Talks With Canada

A lot of Canadians are questioning whether a trade agreement is achievable or worthwhile. It’s increasingly apparent that Trump is incapable of negotiating in good faith.

He just makes shit up. Likely he was briefed that his fabulous Golden Dome is impractical without access to Canadian airspace and co-operation of Canada.

What a spectacle. Defines lickspittle. What has happened to America?

Contrast the Canadian election with US. Elections Canada operates the voting and counts paper ballots across the nation announcing results a few hours after polls close, limits party spending, restricts special interests spending (no PACs) and campaigns last only 38 days. Quelle différence!

What will we hear from Trump tomorrow morning. Will he congratulate Carney? Unlikely since Canada is choosing a new path forward. Call it “Cordial but not cozy “.

Little Marco spins a new porky and its a good one. Apparently Trudeau gave Trump the idea that Canada would be better off as the 51st state. What’s next - Zelensky supports Putin’s annexation of Ukraine!

How Trump’s Tariffs Could Hurt US Farmers and Benefit Brazil China has long relied on the U.S. for soybeans. But with new steep tariffs, it is likely to look even more to Brazil and Argentina.

What were these farmers expecting when they voted for Trump?

Carney forecasts Trump’s trade policies will resemble Brexit impacts - lower growth, higher inflation, lower dollar.

Appears Miller is spoiling for a fight with the judiciary. Poor John Robert’s. He may have to uphold the Constitution for a change. Alito and Thomas won’t be happy

CEO’s it’s time to step up and purchase an exemption for your products. Trump’s PAC’s are happy to receive your generous contributions.

Howard is without any doubt the greatest “Yes Man” of our generation. How do you spell lickspittle!

Beyond stupid. A single iPhone has parts that are sourced from 75 different countries. Where it’s assembled with little screws should not be your policy objective.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Howard gives new meaning to the word lickspittle.

What Canada’s 300% Tariff on Dairy Imports Actually Means In the growing dispute between the US and Canada over trade, US President Donald Trump has singled out for particular complaint steep levies Canada has on the books for imported dairy products, callin...

Trump is a liar! In today’s Rose Garden address celebrating “Liberation Day” he falsely stated Canada imposes a 250% tariff on US dairy exports. In fact 99.2% of US dairy exports enter Canada tariff free. Since USMCA came into effect dairy exports have grown 34%.

Not the air - from his ass!

We have a second home in Sarasota and drive a vehicle with Ontario plates. Our neighbours extend apologies to us and reassure us that they value Canada. No plans to sell.
