Charming that The Atlantic casually suggests that Canadians are treacherous by nature:

MESSAGE TO TRUMP: CANADA WON'T BURN IN YOUR DUMPSTER FIRE

Canadians won't be bullied. We will remain: True. North. Strong Free.
Elbows up.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.
This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldnβt find itβ¦so donβt RT right now this very second.

Trumpβs new acting CFPB director in charge of reigning in predatory financial institutions is literally promoting a predatory payday lender.

Canadian medias, you are expected to do better. Especially if you are funded by the public.
Weβve seen what has happened because of the abdication of the US main medias.

The part that caught my attention in the article is about how tariffs will also lead to changes of currency valuation, interest rates and the value of debt loads - I hadnβt considered those metrics

Column: Is it a coup if it's legal? When you make the rules, it's hard to break them
Is Elon Musk fronting a coup of the U.S. government? While pundits are quick to use the word, the truth is Musk's shadow power may be legal.
Week three, day four. Chaos seems like an insufficient term to grasp the confusion and fear that has overtaken many of our government institutions, not just the ones Elon Musk is occupying, Times columnist Anita Chabria writes.
