Usually wise to such ‘offers’ I’ve been hoodwinked by an online ‘book club’ that sounds legit—until after submitting a discussion guide for my novel, I’m told, BTW, here’s our fee. If it sounds 2 good 2 b true, it is. They wont get a cent from me. But maybe they can pay for wasting my tim?

Why can’t he just go away? So sick of his inflammatory, overblown statements. If only he were capable of a complex, truthful view of reality.

Carney: We are both undertaking massive transformations of our economies. Plan Mexico, Canada strong. Our efforts will be strengthened by working together. As President Sheinbaum said at the G7 summit — and I quote — “In an interdependent world, no country can isolate itself.”

Anyone who thinks that Trump is going to sign a deal with Canada or make nice needs to wake up.
If he is willing to treat his own people with such reckless violence he won't hesitate to go after us.
Stay strong. Stay focused. Keep the boycott strong.

BREAKING: The Pentagon has authorized up to 600 military lawyers to serve as temporary immigration judges.

This is a blatant expansion of military power into a civilian judicial process, a dangerous erosion of the separation between the two.

Every day, we inch closer to fascism.
