It’s hard to take Trump’s calls for restraint in Iran seriously when he is at the same time threatening to deploy the Insurrection Act against Minnesotans.

Trump's regime has murdered people in the water. He has seized ships on the high seas. He has invaded a country and kidnapped their leader.
All bets are off with the United States.
Canada needs to build alliances with Europe and to be ready on the home front.
