Just a reminder since some commenters appear to be confused: As it states in my profile, I am a retired US Ambassador.
During three decades serving the USA, I spoke, wrote, and behaved diplomatically.
I do not speak for any Administration. Now that I am retired, I speak my mind.

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:
1. Break up corporate monopolies
2. Continue building union power
3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics
Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

Before every meeting or even phone call with Zelinskyy, Trump first calls Putin. That should tell you something.
It is a strictly one-way street since he never calls Zelinskyy, EU leaders, or anyone else before talking with Putin.
Clearly, Putin's approval matters to him.

Standing in front of cameras, and next to President Zelinskyy, Trump actually declared that “Russia wants to see Ukraine succeed.”
What's your explanation for Trump?
A) Senile delusions?
B) Delivering Putin's talking point?
C) Trying out as a comedian?
D) He really is that stupid and gullible?

The US regime is attempting to turn the crimes of the residential schools into a battleground for misinformation and hate. The United States government is not an ally and they cannot be trusted with anything.

How about some statistics about retirement and survival? Statistically, when people retire at age 65, average longevity is another year and a half. For every year they retire before age 65, they get another 2 years of life up to about 10 years extra.
Those were the numbers according to insurance.

Enough about donald! danielle thinks the Notwithstanding Clause is permission to override laws she wants gone. The judiciary in Alberta doesn’t understand Alberta sensibility, she says. She and her backers are the “Don’t tread on me” crowd. They stomp on everyone else! Judges don’t understand!

They are bringing the full power of the state to target the finances of people who call out out the liars.
