Quote from Washington Times editorial board

"[Radical liberals] don't realize that, when they express contempt for the man who holds the country's highest office, they reveal their contempt for the Americans who put him there."

Now you know why we are where we are today. Last year, he said we destroyed Iran's nuclear capabilities. That was another lie.

I guess we now know why Saudi Arabia and Qatar, Iran's two biggest regional rivals, bribed Trump and his family with a 747 jet, golf development deals, and billions of dollars of investments.

Chronic ocean heating fuels โ€˜staggeringโ€™ loss of marine life, study finds Fish levels fall by 7.2% with as little as 0.1C of warming per decade, northern hemisphere research shows

Rising ocean temps blamed for massive die-off of marine life. "Researchers examined the year-to-year change of 33,000 [fish] populations in the northern hemisphere.... They found the drop in biomass from chronic heating to be as high as 19.8% in a single year." www.theguardian.com/environment/...

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1.5 trillion.

Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.

The military industrial complex is cheering today.

Veteran pitcher Max Scherzer confirms he is returning to the Blue Jays | CBC Sports Max Scherzer confirmed Thursday that he is returning to the Toronto Blue Jays. The club has not yet announced the contract, reported to be worth $3 million US for one season, but the 41-year-old right...

His eight-year-old daughter, Brooke, also lobbied for a return, writing the Blue Jays a letter in December saying she hoped her father would be back and that the family "loved spending time in Toronto."

We may have won silver but our players have a heart of gold ๐Ÿ’› unlike the disgusting US team and their behaviour in that locker room. The misogyny towards the female hockey team. Disgusting ๐Ÿคฎ but unfortunately this Canadian is not surprised in the least.
