Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Our beloved Canada is under threat.

The threat comes from the president of the US—a convicted felon and known predator. But the threat is also being driven by the hate algorithms of oligarchs like Elon Musk….

President Trump's inaugural address was a misleading assessment of the U.S. It has a growing economy, falling inflation, slowing illegal immigration, a record-breaking stock market, the lowest levels of violent crime in years and a military that has limited engagement in conflicts around the world.
Trump’s inaugural address centers on pledge to lift a country in ‘decline’
In his second Inaugural Address, the president reprised dark themes from his first and laid out an expansive policy agenda.

Jan 20, 1961. A blizzard the day before. Temperatures well below freezing. Without a coat or hat, JFK gave a speech we still quote today. Robert Frost, 86, recited a poem. Steinbeck and Hemingway and Rothko were among the VIPs. A million people gathered in the cold to hear it.
This is the precedent.

to recap:
— Trump was *for* the TikTok ban
— which the GOP Congress passed
— and the GOP Supreme Court upheld
— and even though Biden said he wouldn't enforce the ban, TikTok shut down anyway
— so that Trump could "save" it
— and the media fell for it
we really do live in the dumbest fucking country

Trump's sentencing today could have a chilling effect on future presidents' ability to use campaign money to bribe porn stars into keeping quiet about the sex you had with them when your wife was home with a baby.

Call me old fashioned, but I believe that stealing classified documents, encouraging espionage, inciting an armed insurrection, and being a convicted felon and rapist should disqualify any person from trying to be President of the United States.

The man who sat at the center of the conspiracy to overturn the election — who summoned the mob that attacked the Capitol — emerged immune and unscathed. The chief perpetrator of it all is about to return to the office he left in disgrace and ignominy.

Donald Trump attempted a coup

He lied about the election

Ginned up a “fake electors” scheme

Tried to coerce election officials into saying he won

Threatened his own VP

And dispatched MAGA thugs to attack the Capitol

140 Capitol Police were maimed

Several died

Never
Forget

Serious question: Why are white people so afraid of becoming a minority? Does America treat minorities badly or something?

In 1988, the federal government banned metal-tipped lawn darts because a single child died from one.
