Trump is completely deranged and in the hip pocket of Putin.
It is clear as day.

Don Tump Jr. is saying "USA may walk away from Ukraine".
Their moral compass went down the gold plated toilet long ago.
Bigger bribes in the works with the Putin regime?
Ukraine and Coalition of the Willing aren't about to accept the bogus Putin/Trump surrender plan, so Trumps taking marbles home.

Many Canadians are boycotting the USA due to the illegal unjust tariffs that Trump has imposed on Canada (and most of the world by the way) and his talk of Canada as the 51st State.
We'll have none of it! Nor should you.

To be fair Pierre Poilievre has brought us Pierre Poutine, Bot farms, a hashtag used by a gross and ugly misogynistic movement, 'Right to Work' (lifted from USA Republicans of course) to attack working people and a past history of insulting remarks while acting in a completely dishonourable fashion.

I will grant you that Sunday morning esp. State of the Union is pretty syrupy, giving Republicons an "equal" platform.
But, mostly CNN and MSNBC spend their time digging into the issues that the Trump regime presents aplenty.

wtf is up with you? name calling is so mindless.
Sure Dean Blundell puts things in more stark relief, but I have read plenty of MSM who did a great job covering Trump's new so called Security Plan ie. this very topic.
Too bad you didn't read it?
Or just imagined it wasn't being reported in MSM?

CNN isn't always perfect, who is? But, it does take an awful lot of mindless criticism despite consistently doing some really good journalism and reporting.

Frankly, Costco shoppers are a cult.
The most unpleasant shopping experience anywhere.
Crowds full of zombies pushing around carts and paying a membership to sometimes even pay more than decent grocery store.

OK but Costco could do one heck of a lot to pull up its socks.
They're self-serving excess packaging to force consumers into over-buying obscene quantities of almost everything is an environmental problem that they should straighten up but don't.
People pay membership fee for adding tons of plastic

If Costco wins its lawsuit to get back tariff expenses (which I hope the do) then I'll believe that they are actually trying to lower prices when they refund members every penny of the money won back by prorating refunds based on dollars spent since tariffs arrived.
