@jonfavs.bsky.social likes to mention on the pod how this platform is already dead when he and his cohort could just take the extra 5 seconds to post tweets here too and help beat Elonโ€™s twitter

They used to joke about being twitter addicts and now those jokes just seem sad

Angus: Our PM went to Washington to meet with Trumpโ€”in what looked like a cheesy bordello decked out in gold lamรฉ. When Trump was asked about Canada giving up its sovereignty, he said, โ€œNever say never.โ€

Every Canadian knew exactly what that meant. For a sexual predator, no means no means nothing.

Exciting day for the liberals! Hereโ€™s a bunch of conservatives to complain about it and try to spin their loss.

This episode was.. disappointing. Is there not space for the winning party to express their optimism? Not even one days worth?

I think many Americans would be shocked to hear how everything is being discussed - even on prime time news - in other countries. Basically all of Canada is hearing about whatโ€™s happening and your star is falling very rapidly

Carney: Canada must be looking elsewhere to expand our trade, to build our economy, and to protect our sovereignty. Canada is ready to take a leadership role in building a coalition of likeminded countries who share our valuesโ€ฆ If the US no longer wants to lead, Canada will

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney:

"If the United States no longer wants to lead, Canada will."

This is what real leadership looks like.

Alienate the west, Invade Greenland to destroy NATO, consider taking Canada which is now the enemy, then golf until Putinโ€™s next order

He seems genuinely surprised to learn that we wouldnโ€™t immediately bend over and will just band together with the other western democracies instead.

If the US continues down this path in 4 years it will be Russia - diminished, excluded, pariah with the rest of the world moving on

So crazy that people donโ€™t want to have their rights violated by mini Trump border agents who can search their phone and detain them for criticizing the dear leader

Setting aside how flawed this logic is for a second, why would you say this publicly?

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Going to keep reposting this because I canโ€™t believe itโ€™s not breaking through.

Tesla is defrauding the Canadian government through fake sales to collect federal rebates.

Our American friends are stepping up, why arenโ€™t we?
