Imagine if health care was just something everyone had, and not a zero sum competition between "good" people and "bad" people

And it comes down to size. He wants the biggest country just like he wants the tallest tower in NYC.

I should have mentioned using sunscreen when I was younger too but now mostly I wear hats or stay in shade.

Age 64. I get complimented on my skin a lot. I use nothing but water, a little moisturizer when needed (nothing fancy), and makeup remover. Genes all the way.

VIDEO: Mark Carney Dog Walked Trump In Their Oval Office Meeting As Trump Melted Down. Again. No one handles Trump better than Canada's Mark Carney. No one.

VIDEO: Mark Carney Dog Walked Trump In Their Oval Office Meeting As Trump Melted Down. Again. open.substack.com/pub/deanblun... It started with Trump taking ALL the credit for Carneyโ€™s popularity. The thing is, Trump knows Carney won because we all hate Trump.

Gotta say, murder before Evensong sounds like the most English thing ever

Canada currently has the best trade deal of any country with the US. So there seems to be some benefit to Carney's approach.

Canada is fighting for its economic and sovereign survival. Carney challenging Trump, given his ego and vengefulness, could literally lead to the end of Canada.

If he tells the truth to Trump's face next thing you know is drones buzzing Canadian airspace.

Carney perfectly stone-faced through that whole rant. Gotta admire his self-control for not even smirking.

Nobody goes fishing anymore. Fish jump onto shore where they are gathered up and taken to processing plants.

Not at all. Carney is pretty good at sly insults. We know what he's doing.

They went to the trouble of combining photos but didn't notice "policia" on the shield?

Ahead of talks with Carney, Trump says his tariffs are working The President told reporters the levies are raising money for the U.S. Treasury and luring companies south

The source of billions in extra income was apparently baffling Treasury officials until Trump told them to "check the tariffs shelf." "Sir, you're right," but funny he doesn't mention the tears in their eyes.

Not so much the reproductive imperative but rather the idea that souls are waiting around to enter a baby in the womb or as it is born.
