What exactly did Ronald Reagan say about tariffs? | CBC News The Ontario government ad that has triggered President Donald Trump's wrath, uses excerpts of a 1987 speech by former U.S. President Ronald Reagan. Here's what the ad says and the text of Reagan's ori...

I believe in you.

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life.

Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever.

Our problem isn't a lack of resources.

Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

Stupendous stupidity!

As a professor of English, allow me to try, humbly and with the proper respect, to offer an appropriate response to the President’s address:

Fuck you, you fucked-up fuck, and fuck all the fuckers who willingly fuck with you, especially. You can all fuck all the way off, and then fuck off some more.

A reminder of how you should treat Zelenskyy.

Russia can stop the war any time by leaving Ukrainian land.

Sign of the day…

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Social media post by Brandon Friedman ( @brandonfried ...) on X, posted 1 hour ago, with the text: 'All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.' The post includes a grid of six headshot photos of individuals who reportedly left NBC, arranged in two rows of three.

Put all the “DEI” folks who got let go onto a new network and I’d watch the shit out of it.
