The protests are not for Trump to see, they are so you can all see each other and grow. It's not the protest itself that tyrants are afraid of, but the networks and community you can grow from them. Your strength is your unity and that's why the enemy thrives by demoralizing and dividing you. #3E

It is cancelled, and it is 100% thanks to Ezra making a scene and getting into fights. I’m in the room.

The Rebel have (I counted) no fewer than a dozen people in this room. There’s no journalistic rationale to send that many people.

Seeing multiple reporters posting that the post-debate media scrums are cancelled???

You mean to tell me the commission is so scared of having to have a backbone against grifters that they’d rather deprive us ALL of the question period than actually tell the cosplayers β€œyou guys have to go”???

Doug Ford's incompetent Ontario govt awarded a 95-year lease (and upfront costs) to a company that fooled them by using a similar name/logo of another company. Incredible.

Trump has just hung the "now open for business sign", saying he'll do specific (tariff) favors for specific companies.

CEOs will see massive gains from lobbying, and huge costs from criticizing the White House.

It's an effective way to suppress criticism.

Brace yourself: We're going to see a slew of Rose Garden announcements from Trump that he's gotten tariffs some specific country down near zero. But the reality is that in most cases, that's where we already were three weeks. ago

BERMAN: Do you have questions about the timing of Trump's tariffs pause? Was it market manipulation?

REP. CARLOS GIMENEZ: No. Actually, we had lunch with a major stock broker from New York and we were talking to him about tariffs and one of the things he said was, 'It's time to buy'

This is so chilling. The feels like clip that plays at the start of a movie β€” calm, forgettable, and terrifying in retrospect β€” because it was the moment everything quietly began to unravel.

Lmao the amount of SPY calls increased by over 10x literally 10 min before the announcement
Contract:

Lmao the amount of SPY calls increased by over 10x literally 10 min before the announcement Contract:

People were informed about Trumps tariff announcement prior to his social media post or official announcement.

This is a clear case of insider fraud and market manipulation.

Just figured out where these fake tariff rates come from. They didn't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers, as they say they did. Instead, for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us.

So we have a $17.9 billion trade deficit with Indonesia. Its exports to us are $28 billion. $17.9/$28 = 64%, which Trump claims is the tariff rate Indonesia charges us. What extraordinary nonsense this is.

The Trump regime has put a 10% tariff on the Heard Island and McDonald which is inhabited only by Penguins. The majestic Penguin has become the first nonhuman in history to enter a trade war with the United States.

I’m devastated, but I’m also angry. I’m angry because this is an attack on press freedom.

If opportunities can be stripped from journalists simply because enough people repeat the same bad-faith narrative, how can anyone withstand the career impact of doing work that matters?

Many, I guess, have forgotten that CTV fired two employees for an editing mistake on a Poilievre clip, and now this. I'm thinking CTV won't be a finalist for a World Press Freedom Canada Award any time soon.
