"Get the Benadryl - Conservatives are allergic to facts!
The opposition may shout, but the numbers speak louder. Canada added 60,000 new jobs last month & wages are up 3.3% year-over-year. Budget 2025 will deliver for young people and all Canadians. Time to face the facts." #cdnpoli

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.
This is not about immigration enforcement.
It's about terrorizing Americans.
