Can I get a slow hand clap for the saddest creature in existence, the human embodiment of the rage-baiting algorithm, the sorry spectacle for what passes for thought in conservative land these days: #jennibyrne, the “brain” or rather pant-suited spleen behind Pierre Poilievre. 👏 👏 👏

What absolute twaddle (again) from the #CBC, which increasingly believes its mandate is to demonstrate to the Canadian people that responsible journalism cannot be conducted in a structure dedicated primarily to ad revenue and the sensationalist pursuit of eyeballs, clicks, and dopamine fixes.
ANALYSIS | Was Mark Carney's Davos speech a mistake if it upset Trump? | CBC News

“Dear Leader” numbers for an unfit fool (at a stacked delegated convention in the diehard heartland in the middle of a bad travelling winter for the rest of the country) should tell any remaining conservatives of good conscience where they belong in their former party and what they now need to do.

The PM needs to summon the U.S. ambassador and drag his ass back and forth over the coals until he gets a satisfactorily contrite response (unlikely) and, if/when he doesn’t, send that same charred ass back over the border from whence it originated. #carney #canada

They (the U.S. administration) lie, and lie incompetently, as a matter of practice. Has there ever been a more hopelessly inept looking, acting, and sounding secretary than Scott Bessent? No word, no thought, no gesture of the man is to be believed.

No! Raise the PST, use the funds provided by the Feds for their proper purpose, stop funnelling funds to your unworthy corporate backscratchers, abide by CHA i.e. the law of the land, do what the people of Ontario want. Do what is right and your goddamn job for once. #dougford #ontario #pcparty

History presents a full parade of hateful, powerful figures. What the act of writing their dirty deeds conceals as it elevates these monsters to posterity, but what we presently have a crystal clear view of, is just how clownish, silly, stupid, and despicably pathetic these people actually are.

As I understand it, Trump’s goal is to break laws, be a criminal, and not be held accountable at every level, municipal, state, federal, and international. My congratulations to our American cousins for creating, nurturing, emboldening, empowering, and protecting this special creature.
