Apparently there is a clip of Poilievre working out in the gym making the rounds . How do I make sure I don't see this, any blocking technology or is an ole fork in the eye my best hope? Sounds like something you make an enemy combatant watch until they break and give you the goods. #cdnpoli

Hillary and Bill Clinton will tear the GOP a new one in any hearing. And if you don't think so, then you should be all for public proceedings. Anyone supporting a private hearing is an utter coward. What could Trump possibly fear? #epsteinfiles #cdnpoli

I remember his Presidential runs well, it was so exciting, hopeful, yet decidedly dangerous to the establishment. I'd never heard such soaring oratory and was naive enough to think he could win. Jackson had his issues, but what a truly inspiring movement and groundbreaking figure. #uspoli #cdnpoli
The Rev. Jesse Jackson, who became the leading voice of Black American aspirations after the assassination of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and was the first African American to gain significant traction as a presidential candidate, died Tuesday.
Jesse Jackson, a leading African American voice on global stage, dies at 84
As a civil rights activist, he joined the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. in Selma, Alabama, and Memphis. He later launched two historic presidential campaigns.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

America has descended into utter chaos and instability. Markets completely tone deaf to obvious realities, namely American economic might is being undermined in every conceivable way, from competitors gaining traction, to allied economies abandoning America. And there is no going back. #cdnpoli

Ford didn't give more gov't money to Ontario post secondary institutions. He transferred the student grants to loans, saving the gov't billions, which is then given to schools. All that's happened here, students paying more to go to school and are saddled with DEBT. Such garbage policy. #cdnpoli

How much more obvious can it be Canadian media, the gov't is using the F-35 as a bargaining chip within trade negotiations. We were always getting the planes, now if we agree it looks a concession and that's shrewd. Let Carney cook on the planes, he's slow playing it for a reason. #cdnpoli
