Today October 27 is the day of Ukrainian language and literature. Ukrainian is available free of charge for anyone at LingQ. Just register and start learning like I did.

Charlie please tell the Afghan girls that all refugees have free access to LingQ to work on their language skills (over 50 languages).
I learned Farsi there. Just register and contact support at LingQ with their username and say they are Afghan refugees.

Mostly French and English with a little mandarin Chinese

A screenshot of an X post with a black background and white text, featuring a "Being Liberal" logo in the top right corner. The post lists products launched by Donald Trump, including TrumpRX, Trump Gold Card, Trump Mobile, Trump Coin, and Trump Social/Truth Social. It also mentions upcoming projects: Trump Golf Resort in Qatar, Trump Plaza in Saudi Arabia, and Trump Tower in UAE. Additional claims include Melania having a crypto coin, Jared buying EA, and Trump accepting a $40M jet from Qatar. The post ends with a sarcastic remark about the Bushes and Clintons being the "swamp" and questions about grocery bills, salaries, and the feeling of getting poorer while the president and his family get richer.

And this is just a small sample of the scams and the grift!

Why is this dishonest low IQ clown on TV so often?

Trump has no idea who the previous Nobel peace prize recipients were, what they did to earn the prize and how the winners are chosen. Trump has a better chance of being on the US Ryder Cup golf team then getting a Nobel peace prize.

The common theme in the Trump administration is a complete lack of morality, the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil.

The problem for Canada and other countries negotiating with the US is that their chief negotiators are sycophants with no respect for the truth, and whose word cannot be trusted. They reflect the president.

Per Lutnick, US wants to make everything at home & will apply punitive tariffs on all countries importing anything from China, which of course every country exporting to the US does. Protectionism was tried before, Smoot-Hawley Bill, world trade declined by 60% and depression. Brilliant.

Many GOP leaders are ignorant of history. The American Revolution was part of the
“enlightenment”inspired by the classical world of Greece & Rome, opposed to the influence of the Church. Jews’ voting rights were restricted till mid 19th century.

Keep asking these questions, Peter Alexander. Bravo.

If this were a real threat to the president of US, Noem, Gabbard etc should be doing everything possible, not to publicize it, the opposite of what they’re doing.

No thanks to fortress North America scheme w/ fundamentally egotistical US. When COVID vaccines were urgently needed in Canada, EU honoured contracts & shipped to Canada. Biden blocked exports till June 2021.

I found this book in my library from when I was working on Swedish. I didn’t read it then, but enjoying it now, reading & listening to the audiobook, both in Swedish of course . Lots of personal details about Napoleon. Herman Lindquist is one of my favorite historians .

Canada didn't force the integration of much of our economy w/ the US. No one forced US consumers to benefit from inexpensive high quality products from China. Now, suddenly all scrapped by a president whining that the US was "ripped off". We'll see if the new order is better or not.

While American networks highlight the fact that a majority of Americans disapprove of Trump, most foreign observers are amazed that 40 to 45% of Americans still support an incompetent immoral lunatic as President.

I am privileged that people in countries all over the world work together by some magic process to bring me everything from food, to electronics, to little plugs for my book shelves. Why allow Trump to break this system?

Susan Holt is absolutely fluent in French by the way.

Trump’s every word is humbug & nonsense or something more sinister. Rubio is just Trump‘s spineless echo.

Some think Trump & arbitrary one man rule is best. Behold the glulam beam. The inherent weak points of individuals are distributed broadly providing superior strength & resilience. One man rule doesn't work. Leads to errors & disasters. Mao, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini & more.

I’ve been following Mark Carney improve in French over the last two months. Simply remarkable. His French this evening was excellent, calm, comfortable, clear. He understands well and communicates well in French.

nightmare rotation

Pussy Riot came to NYC to tell us “ We see the rise of authoritarianism here
and we want go call people to not be silent. We want ppl to remember not to give up”.

In a government run by unpleasant morons, this guy Lutnick stands out somehow as particularly annoying.

Irish Gaelic is now available on LingQ as of S. Patrick's day, today.

I started following US politics in 2016. I now realize that "grab 'em by the p***y", they let you do it if you're famous" is Trump's profiteor, his moral north star, in a nutshell. Disrespect all, grab what you can & just expect to get away with it.

holy shit this question at the Rep. Chuck Edwards town hall 🔥🔥🔥

The stupidity level of the Republican MAGA cultists is off the charts.
