You see she lost him when she said that she has medically fragile children and no money. These creeps are trying to build a super race and she and her family are of no use to them.

It isn't PM Carney's job to perform for Americans or solve their trump problem. His job is to get the best deal for Canada while having to deal with a lunatic. It only matters that we get it.

Evacuation practice off site for work - which was really just a lovely walk on a beautiful autumn day.

ICE feels they have to hire them because most people don't want to hire criminals. That's why so many immigrants have jobs. They aren't the criminals.

Of course, way more drugs are coming into Canada from the US than are going from Canada to the US. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Trump says Canada is the problem when it comes to drugs. New data from the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) shows this country has a reason to worry about what's pouring in from the U.S.

This one is jaw-dropping. Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY) has a whole lot to explain to her constituents:

Letting the health care tax credits expire would devastate American families — and we’re making that crystal clear by giving you the data.

We’ve built graphics showing how much costs would rise in every GOP district.

Let’s start with Mike Johnson (R-LA):

Does the 17 trillion from tariffs exist? No. Is he stealing money that he is extorting from businesses? Yes.

Darbyfish @darbyfish.bsky.social · 8d

Worse is that Argentina has capitalized on that and now are selling soy beans to China with no tariffs. Trump gave bags of cash to Argentina, so taxpayers get to pay twice for soy beans that they don’t need.

Exactly. Once they start buying from another provider, why would they come back to American products when the president can't be trusted to bargain in good faith?

Exclusive: Chinese buyers book at least 10 Argentine soybean cargoes, sources say

Chinese buyers have booked at least 10 cargoes of soybeans from Argentina, three traders told Reuters on Tuesday, taking advantage of low prices to build inventories for the fourth quarter amid Sino-U.S. trade tensions.

US farmers are saying they "just need temporary help, until things get better."

Here's the thing. US farm exports- which are mostly soy- CANNOT get better.

Other countries expanded their soy industries to fill China's demand.

We've walled ourselves out of the global market, folks. This is it.

His past history (in trump’s first term) lets us know that he was not put in this position to improve relations with Canada but to generate stories to influence gullible Americans against the rest of the world.

I was there last summer. Yummy, and they will let you have the gravy on the side for dipping. No better for my heart, but my fries stayed crispy.
