Vote splitting in Ontario amongst the NDP, Liberal and Green Parties who all broadly share most of their main policy platforms is handing Ontario to the Cons on a sliver platter. The Ontario NDP and Liberal Parties need to consider radical change like close cooperation or even merging

Ronald Reagan found Donald Trump annoying & avoided him. Trump spent years trying to reach him and failed, Reagan saw him as a loudmouthed rich moron with a large ego, and wanted nothing to do with him.

Trump stood in line to get his picture taken with him at a meet & greet.

I can’t get over a media that spent years dwelling on gaffes telling us which Presidential crimes aren’t a big deal

Reagan's approach to the world prominently featured two things:

1) Russian aggression bad, Western democratic alliance good
2) Free trade good, tariffs and other barriers to trade bad

Pretending it's the opposite is the sort of reality inversion only someone who rejects truth itself could buy.

GOV. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social : “They’re talking about getting rid of the Voting Rights Act — that may likely happen in months… they’re rewriting history… ANTI-WOKE IS ANTI-BLACK… we’re not doing enough. We’re not calling this out.”

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

The energy we need is this suburban dad standing out in the street -- barefoot with Blackhawks pajama pants on -- screaming at the masked goons to get the fuck out of their neighborhood.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

The fact that we’re now willing to entertain relations with the authoritarian government in Beijing shows that we can no longer maintain those relationships with the United States. #cdnpoli
