Trump has named his own defense lawyer to the Appeals Court without vetting from the American Bar Association. He is aiming to remove the ultimate check on his powers.
This is be THE wake-up call America. Rise up and actively resist through peaceful civil disobedience while you still can.
Every time a higher court overturns a lower court ruling in favour of Trump, remember Mitch McConnell, the architect of the MAGA judiciary.
It was Mitch who spent the first Trump term naming judges favourable to Agent Orange.
After tanking markets, weakening the US dollar and crashing trust for America globally, Trump blinked and slashed his tarifs on China by 115%. The Mountain spat out a mouse. Oh, and Americans will still pay more for chinese imports. Great deal Don, great deal.

What is the response from the Democrats? Lots of disparate shadow boxing. Who leads this bunch? Where is the leadership? Look to the field, not DC.
They have come for the immigrants.
They have come for the students
They are coming for the judges.
You are not far down the list.

If WH is initiating, fine. My feeling stands. Let Trump show his hand first.
Why should Carney talk to Trump?
There is not much upside. If he initiates the request, Trump has the pleasure of ignoring and belittling him. He can say he doesn’t speak to lame ducks. Or he accepts and insults him. Either way, it’s a hit to the PM image Carney has well crafted so far. Ignore him.

Excellente analyse de l’affaire Brookfield dans La Presse. Journet voit juste, les réponses de Carney ont une certaine arrogance qu’il ferait mieux de corriger.
Bombing and killing more than 400 men, women and children in their sleep is not a glorious military action. It’s a cowardly and monstrous massacre.
