Seems to me that if you have to shop around for a charity riding because you can’t win your own, that does not bode well for success in a general election.
Pierre Poilievre will almost certainly survive the leadership vote being held today. But as a series of recent polls show, he remains the most unpopular leader in Canadian politics — and maybe Canadian political history. How long can he last? #cdnpoli

Pierre Poilievre’s troubles have only just begun
The Conservative Party of Canada leader will almost certainly survive Friday's leadership vote. Whether he makes it to the next election, never mind actually winning it, is another matter entirely.

"You're asking me about something that the president just said... He's never going to implement it... We should talk instead about what he's doing... Every time we get distracted by what he talks about rather than what he does... he destroys and he redistributes to the rich."

I think history will note this moment as defining Trump as the weakest US president in history as well as the most pathetically vacuous human being ever.
Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado met President Donald Trump at the White House as part of her push for greater influence in the wake of Nicolas Maduro’s ouster
Venezuela’s Machado Gives Trump Her Nobel in Bid for His Favor
Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado presented Donald Trump with her Nobel Peace Prize medal in a meeting Thursday, a bid to gain his favor as the US determines her country’s future and move past an episode that rankled the president.

WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.
“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

I'd be surprised if these bozos have a plan beyond the weekend.
The US is now responsible for the governance of Venezuela. Toppling the regime of a smaller country is always the easy part. The hard part is what comes after. Neo-cons always expect a pro-US nirvana. It rarely works out. But I suppose the oil companies can seize some assets.

Vaccines are a wedge issue, exploited by politicians to garner votes, by political commentators to build brands and by online influencers to get clicks.

It doesn't have to be this way.

Agree with Charlie. Go home, Hoekstra!
Please watch and share.
Pete Hoekstra is fundamentally unfit to be ambassador. His record of race-baiting and extremist disinformation needs to be called out.
MAGA is actively undermining our nation. Canada needs to send him packing.
