We are 7 weeks into the most egregious stock market manipulations of our lifetime.
Orchestrated by a crooked president and his underlings.
Billions siphoned via false proclamations of ceasefires and peace talks.
With the criminals in charge, every day is a crime spree.

Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October.
Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year.
Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce.
Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.
Disney's new CEO, whose pay package is worth nearly $45M, just announced 1,000 layoffs.
Reminder that Disney paid an effective federal income tax rate of ZERO in 2025 and aims to buy back $7B of its own stock in 2026.
This is what corporate greed looks like.
For how how long have we been told that the US has this fabulous written Constition whereas we do not?
But the US Constitution has been shown to be the emperor with no clothes
It might as well be a blank sheet of paper
It might as well not exist
The US is acting entirely on the whim of one man
Well...it is working out just like he says.
I think members of congress not stopping this should also be considered guilty of his crimes
If we bought a few less bombs, we could probably afford nice things.
One thing I'd like to see from the next presidency would be to appoint a special commission to prepare a report on the actual cost to defend the United States from attack.
Not foreign wars.
Just the cost to defend this country.
The true tragedy lies in the fact that he was elected and permitted to serve as President, leading to the current challenges the world is facing.
Congratulations to all the artists we celebrated tonight at the Juno Awards.
Through your craft, you remind Canadians that we all belong to something bigger — a unique, ambitious, and creative nation.
435 US Representatives
100 US Senators
Why are we only answering to one man?
How is this a democracy?
I trust that those who review this period in US history will identify and correct the multiple flaws in the system that first allowed this exceptionally low-quality human to become president, and then protected him from being removed from office when it was so apparent that removal should happen.
Dripping with the right kind of “populism”
Keep’m coming...
PM of Sweden Ulf Kristersson: "It's really great to see the most Nordic country outside the Nordics in a meeting in the Nordics. I think it's a sign of our time honestly that the Nordic five and Canada is working so well together. It proves your case. Middle powers make a big difference." #cdnpoli

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled.
A truly extraordinary moment.
We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.
Act like it.
If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.
Who would have guessed that the legal system in America was so fragile that a single crazy president could ignore the whole thing, from the Constitution right down to state laws?
Why does the Supreme Court and Congress let this demented moron act like the dictator of a banana republic?
Agree 💯% With Senator Mark Kelly.......
The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.
$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

To the CBC Editorial Team, I am writing as a Canadian viewer to express concern about CBC's decision to air the U.S. State of the Union address. As Canada's public broadcaster, funded in part by Canadian taxpayers, CBC plays a unique role in prioritizing Canadian perspectives, Canadian democratic institutions, and domestic public affairs. While I understand that major international events can be newsworthy, the full live broadcast of a foreign head of state's annual political address raises questions about editorial priorities and balance. Canada has its own parliamentary traditions, including the Speech from the Throne and federal budget addresses, which reflect our system of government and deserve emphasis. I worry that providing uninterrupted coverage of a U.S. political event risks amplifying another country's political theatre in a way that may not align with CBC's public mandate. I would respectfully ask that CBC clarify how such decisions are made and how they align with its mandate to inform, enlighten, and reflect Canada and its regions.
Thank you for considering this feedback. Sincerely, Mike Campbell
My email to CBC via their feedback regarding my disapproval of our public broadcaster airing the SOTU.

So SCOTUS, with its fabricated-out-of-thin-air immunity doctrine, has actually made American presidents less accountable than LITERAL royalty.
If someone had told me ten years ago that in 2026, there could be evidence of the president raping and threatening to kill children, and he would *still* be allowed to stay in office, I would have politely asked them to put down the meth pipe.
More reports of Gmail turning over email content to ICE are coming out now.

We've arranged a society based on science and technology, in which nobody understands anything about science and technology.
And this combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces.

I prefer achievable goals; as a result, I am in favour of the Canadian government's new EV approach.
Yes, although I find it surprising that some American commentators characterize the Canadian response to the Trump regime's international blunders as 'rage.' I do not see rage happening here in Canada. I see disappointment, followed by pragmatism.
Yes, it’s astonishing that Kristi Noem still has her job after the deaths, lies, and failures on her watch.
But the American people have the final say when it comes to holding this entire administration - from the president on down - accountable for its cruelty and corruption.
