When the president is destroying national landmarks, murdering fishermen, raising prices because he's angry over a Reagan video, and kidnapping parents in front of their crying children is probably not an ideal time to have a lazy, completely incompetent legislative branch perpetually on vacation.

25.10.2025 16:16 β π 4 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute learned that the Government of Ontario, Canada, created an ad campaign using selective audio and video of President Ronald Reagan delivering his "Radio Address to the Nation on Free and Fair Trade," dated April 25, 1987. The ad misrepresents the Presidential Radio Address, and the Government of Ontario did not seek nor receive permission to use and edit the remarks. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute is reviewing its legal options in this matter. We encourage you to watch President Reagan's unedited video on our YouTube channel.
The post from the Reagan Foundation is just complete gibberish.
The ad did not, in fact, misrepresent Reagan's views. But the idea that anyone needs the Reagan Foundation's goddamn permission to use the publicly broadcast official remarks of a former president and/or edit them for brevity is crazy
A 14-word replacement for most op-eds, substacks, etc about this moment.
The GOP could stop ALL of this, right nowβif a handful of Sens or Reps could step outside the cult.
It would take four in the Senate, four (maybe five) in the House, to change history.
Until then, they're all to blame.
Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.
Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.
These arenβt acts of benevolence or patriotism.
This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.
Every American should reject it.
And here's the ad that has gotten the President crying. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pABU...
24.10.2025 12:28 β π 241 π 70 π¬ 6 π 10But hereβs the deal: Thereβs no deal to be had. Behind the glad-handing and theatrics, Trump doesnβt even know what he wants. He has found his preferred tool in achieving his grandiose goals β ending the drug crisis, eliminating Americaβs trade deficits, reviving American manufacturing β and it is tariffs. Donβt like those demands? Donβt worry, he has others: A place to send the people heβs deporting, free capital to invest in American manufacturing, or unrivaled access to rare earth minerals. Exactly what Canada is supposed to do to escape tariffs remains murky as ever. Weβre not the only ones. Trumpβs conspiratorial trade adviser Peter Navarro once promised to sign β90 deals in 90 days.β The administrationβs biggest deal has been with China β and itβs a loser. The deal reduces, but doesnβt drop, American tariffs on China in exchange for more critical minerals from Beijing. This is Trumpβs version of a win-win: He gets concessions, but gets to keep the tariffs.
Trump is posting on Truth Social that he's terminating negotiations with Canada over a "fake" ad criticizing tariffs (that was run by Ontario, and which isn't fake.)
It's all theatre. There was never a deal to be gotten. Trump just wants to claim victory. #giftlink www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...
Also as I understand it the Reagan ad was run by Ontario Province, not by Canadaβs federal government or privy council or whatever. Imagine if countries cut off trade with us because of shit Alabama or Vermont did.

In new letters to the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, Smith says he wants to testify "in open hearings" because of "the many mischaracterizations" around his investigations.
