I see 10s of thousands of fake new "Anti ICE" social media sites popping up. That will keep these bone heads busy for eons!

They (Trump's Whitehouse) have absolutely no idea what they're doing! They have no idea of the value of "soft power".

Where's the VoA when it's really needed? There's a rush to turn it back on but these morons have lost the history/credibility since DOGE pulled the plug!

Wait until you get to be my age! Your memory banks will overflow! I remember when the Soviets announced they'd shot down some guy named Francis Gary Powers!

These two men could not be more different! After this tumultuous weekend it seems evident to me that the World needs more Ahmed al-Ahmeds!

The other man recently received the FIFA peace prize, cheats at golf, cannot take criticism, lives for personal financial gain and chose this weekend to spread hatred while eulogizing a beloved actor/director. /3

Although financially not wealthy his respect for others and his willingness to put his life at risk to protect strangers have earned him great wealth in the form of respect from others world-wide. /2

This weekend two men on opposite sides of the planet exposed their true self. One man, a Syrian immigrant to Australia, Ahmed al-Ahmed, disarmed a terrorist and saved the lives of many of his adopted countrymen. Mr. al-Ahmed is a fruit shop owner of modest means. /1

Not only are the imports into Canada dropping but the trust in our, once friendly, neighbour has disappeared. It will take a long time for trust and those imports to regain their previous levels. Well done Donny!
