Poilievre launches his campaign promising to be "respectful and firm" against Trump
  • Meanwhile, Elizabeth Danielle Smith, Premiere of Alberta, said this about Poilievre:

    “So I would think that there’d be, there’s probably still always going to be areas that are skirmishes or disputes about particular industries when it comes to the border, but I would say, on balance, the perspective that Pierre would bring would be very much in sync with, I think…the new direction in America,” she added. “And I think we’d have a really great relationship for the period of time they’re both in.”

    Emphasis mine.

  • Holy shit. She literally said Poilievre would be just like Trump. How was this not a bigger deal when she said it?

    “So I would think that there’d be, there’s probably still always going to be areas that are skirmishes or disputes about particular industries when it comes to the border, but I would say, on balance, the perspective that Pierre would bring would be very much in sync with, I think…the new direction in America,” she added. “And I think we’d have a really great relationship for the period of time they’re both in.”

  • As Economic Indicators Point to Recession, Trump Moves to Hide Key Data From Public
  • And once people have nothing left to lose and their families are starving they drag the rich into the streets and beat them to death with asphalt torn from the roads. History has repeated this scenario over and over again.

    As of 2023 there are 735 billionaires in the US, and 340,000,000 non-billionaires.

    Honestly? Anyone who's been paying attention. The US has amazing control over their population. The people are kept weak, misinformed, and economically on the edge of being unhoused and starving with no support systems in place. Most people are too comfortable in their own homes, or too distracted struggling to survive to realize their power to organize in numbers.

    Compare various European nations' reactions when their government does something they don't like. They bring the nation to its knees with protests clogging the streets. The US? Crickets.

    South Korea pulled down a wanna-be dictator and held him accountable. The US? Crickets.

    They talk tough, but the US has not had a strong populace in generations.

    If you think things are bad now, then, brace yourself: it is about to get a whole lot worse. If you are alarmed at the speed with which the Trump administration has set about dismantling every institution of American government and every pillar of the international order, you must understand that this is not just the initial burst of activity, the “shock and awe” phase after which things will settle down: if anything, the pace will continue to accelerate.

    The world has never before been faced with such a threat. The United States has handed the nuclear codes to a madman, a criminal, a would-be dictator and a moron, all in the same person. Whatever the purpose to which he directs these powers – to impress his dictator friends, to further enrich himself and his cronies, to seize absolute power or just to watch the world burn – we must hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.
