ASK YOURSELF this question. Why isn’t Trump going to Portland as POTUS to survey the mass carnage that is happening there. Ask yourself.

BECAUSE ITS NOT HAPPENING AND HE CAN LIE BETTER FROM DC

Dr. Peter Hotez: “The bottom line is, autism has a clear genetic basis. You can make the case that the overwhelming amount of the clinical presentation of autism is due to the actions of those genes.“

What causes autism? Here's what the White House gets wrong.

More than a hundred autism genes have been identified, explains author Peter Hotez. And Tylenol isn't the biggest environmental factor.

#cdnpoli #cdnpolitics A PM must represent all Canadians by speaking and acting ONLY in the best interests of our entire population. Poilievre is not fit to be PM as he cannot do that, so he is employing the #populistagenda of dividing and conquering Canadians in a failing attempt to gain power.

"War ravaged," "Fires all over the place," and "Almost an insurrection" - Trump's descriptions of the current state of Portland

Ryan J. Reilly “paints a vivid and urgent portrait of… disarray” @ryanjreilly.com · 3h

PORTLAND, Ore. — A small group of federal agents in camouflage and face masks watched from atop the immigration processing center Thursday night as a unicorn, peacock, dinosaur and raccoon danced to Cher’s “If I Could Turn Back Time.” www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Costumed protesters in Portland defy description of the city as a 'war zone'

Dancing frogs, peacocks and unicorns outside the federal immigration building present a joyful contrast to the Trump administration's portrait of the Oregon city, they say.

I would assume that the Qatari Air Force facility in the US is entirely training focused.

That said, it's worth noting that Qatar has literally bribed the President and his family in multiple ways, to the tune of many millions of dollars.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 Zelensky: Spoke with Trump. Good conversation, very productive. I congratulated President Trump on his success and the agreement for the Middle East, which he really secured, and this is a strong result.

And if we can stop the war in that region, then other wars can definitely be stopped.

The media is also feeding the expectations. The Libs mandate is 4-5 yrs. Libs said change would come quickly but instantly. They certainly did ‘promise’.

I get why some people are frustrated.

They expected instant results — pipelines built, housing fixed, everything magically back to normal overnight.
But that’s not how governing works, and it’s not what Mark Carney promised.
