Canada: Our Prime Minster studied at Oxford and Harvard, was the Governor of both the Banks of England and Canada, and is recognized as one of the sharpest financial minds around.

America: oh yeah? Our guy has to take dementia tests every week.

Here's a downloadable link to the 60 MINUTES piece that Trump's enablers at Paramount's CBS refused to air.

Share it far and wide.

Thanks @jasonparis.bsky.social for posting. #60Minutes

P.S. here's the leaked 60 minutes segment, in case you hadn't seen it. These kidnappers and human traffickers can't hide from us.

When I was a kid you could get a penis for six hundred bucks. And they threw in the testicles for free, because they valued the customer. Inflation is ruining the country!

We’re getting to the point where support for packing the Supreme Court might be a viable election position. This would be an absurdity in normal times.

Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

When Trump says "I don't know what part of my body they scanned but it wasn't my brain," it's so stupidly childish and obvious that they did an MRI of his brain. It's like a kid saying "you can search my room but not my pillowcase!"

I’ve never seen a clip of this man speaking that didn’t make me want to throw things.

Snide, condescending and deeply dishonest. Feels like a villain from a bad 80s teen comedy.

There's no greater indictment of the US education system than the fact that Trump was elected twice.

Seeing a trollish flame-thrower suddenly discover empathy when it is they who is under distress is pathetic and somewhat fascinating. One wonders whether their cognition makes contact w/ irony. It's the lowest EQ, shittiest character people who care about "a thing" only when it's happening to them.

Combating this lie is tiresome.

But it’s worth pointing out that RBOB gasoline today hit its highest level since September. ⛽️
Trump: "I don't want to hear about the affordability, because right now we're much less. If you look at energy, we're getting close to $2 a gallon gasoline."

There is some sad irony in McClatchy shutting its DC bureau the same day that Dick Cheney died.

That bureau (then Knight-Ridder) did some of the best, most skeptical reporting anywhere in the run-up to the Iraq War. And they took a lot of shit for it at the time.

I’m glad to know we are allowed to critique Reagan now.
Trump: "Ronald Reagan loved tariffs. He used them sparingly, which he probably made a mistake on that ... trade wasn't his strong suit ... Canada shouldn't have done it ... I don't know when [the new tariff] is gonna kick in. We'll see. But I really don't want to discuss it."

The comparison to the Tea Party is right -- not just in terms of the size of the protests, but the complaints they're making.

The Tea Party began when a CNBC reporter and a crowd of bond traders threw a tantrum about Obama continuing the post-crash bailouts that Bush began. That was their "tyranny"
Remember April 2009 when about 250,000 people took to America’s streets in Tea Party rallies and the media was like “oh man, the Dems are in trouble?” Approximately 28X as many people took to the streets to protest Trump yesterday. Didn’t even make the NYT front page.
In April of 2009 I observed the Tea Party rally in Salem. As this front page story says, there were a couple hundred people there. This past weekend in Salem there were roughly 2-3000 people at the Hands Off rally. Yet the Tea Party coverage seemed to take that event far more seriously.
