At some point, you may notice my profile picture changing regularly. I'll explain that once, as I have on Twitter.

For as long as American politicians talk about annexing my country, I will silently spotlight America's rich history of political violence.

‘O Canada’: Trump Declares It Only ‘Makes Sense’ for U.S. to Absorb Neighbor as ‘Fifty First State’ After Announcing Steep New Tariffs
President Donald Trump ramped up his trade war with Canada Tuesday morning, arguing that it only "makes sense" for the U.S. to absorb its northern neighbor.

Dear American Progressives,

Have you all noticed how Donald wound up with 10% of Intel and an operational stake in U.S. Steel, with 0% of Congress having anything to say about it? I'll bet it gives you Big Mads!

How'd you like to win Florida?

I thought that would pique your interest.

Given what their economic war of choice is almost certainly going to do to my life, I hope Christ that Canada's infrastructure projects include a Ho Chi Minh Trail for anybody who wants to kick the living shit of the Americans.

Is it a coincidence that in the same year that I've lost forty pounds, I've gotten five letters from the Ontario government begging to look at my asshole?

Republicans want you to know that they aren't a cult. They're a collection of like-minded people who believe taxes lower prices and that they're at their most virtuous when they're being shunned by everybody else.

Also, cults don't have primaries.

Venezuela is such a unique threat to the United States that Americans ... elected an indicted coup leader who promised to do terrible things to his own economy to meet it.

As for the War on Drugs, I continue to bet on drugs. Look at the scorecard.

Say whatever else you want about Canada, but it's the greatest country with two delusional white-trash separatist movements in the world!

Dear Progressives,

Can you please button your pouty cocksuckers about "othering rhetoric?"

Any sane person will tell you it's the best kind. It's fun, and it can do amazing things for your vocabulary if you put a little effort into it.

Christ, you're infuriating,
skippy

If I knew that Republicans were going to turn into Ed Broadbent in 2025, I probably would have voted for Ed Broadbent in 1988 and become a completely different adult.

Americans are persuasive, but seldom in the ways they intend to be.

Marco Rubio is too much of a pussy to impose a visa requirement on Canadians. Pass it on.

I'm pretty sure that the etire point of nuclear submarines is the enemy not knowing where they are, but Donald knows best!
Reporters keep saying that Trump has "confirmed" the movement of two US submarines.
Nothing is confirmed. Trump has *asserted* it twice, but because of his, ah, peculiarities, I don't think we can take his word for that. It's possible that he thinks he's just being clever.

Critics ought to be sent to El Salvador for an exciting new life of sexual torture.

Donald was convicted of business records fraud and elected anyway, so his numbers *are* the numbers, and fuck whatever the bond market has to say about it.

Give. The. People. What. They. Voted. For.

It's. Fucking. Glorious.
The man who just fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics because their numbers supposedly weren’t accurate just claimed that he lowered drug prices in America by 1500%.

Dear CNN,

Since you don't know what you're doing and Ghislaine Maxwell is becoming a thing, you're going to need a Daniel Dale for, y'know, perverts.

I'd like you to know that Karla Homolka could probably use a job.

I'd ask for money now, but you don't have any.

Maybe, maybe not. Her signing a cooperation agreement was in all the papers, which other inmates frown upon, but I don't know.

Having said that, I continue to applaud Donald's lifelong effort to master the appearance of guilt. He blew past the Clintons eons ago!
“The reason for the move is listed as a “lesser security transfer” (code 308), which is completely inappropriate for inmates who are in the early stages of serving their sentences. ‘This is such obvious corruption. I have never seen this before.’”

EXCLUSIVE: Someone Waived Ghislaine Maxwell's Sex Offender Status to Move Her to a Minimum Security Camp in Texas
According to sources, you can't move someone with a Public Safety Factor (PSF) designation - which Maxwell had - without waiving it. That's what happened here.

I mean, those people think drag queens are a threat to civilization, so I'm not shocked that they're routing their travel based on crime that's been declining for three years.

Long story, Americans are idiots because their government makes them that way.
Bernie Moreno says Cincinnati might be need to put on a "watch list" and claims he no longer visits Chicago and New York City because he's scared of crime

It makes all the sense in the world if you're a convicted fraud, which I hasten to add, Donald is and the American people voted for him, anyway.

Savvy money guru Kevin O'Learly not being able to put that together ahead of time is why Kevin O'Leary was literally laughed out of Canadian politics.
Kevin O’Leary trashing Trump on CNN:

"We had a bad print on jobs. I did not agree on whacking the commissioner. I don't like that.. whacking statisticians makes no sense whatsoever."

With God as my witness, I'm throbbing just thinking about the day Donald goes in front of TV cameras and starts babbling about how his new agricultural policy is "making the farms work together. Collectively." And then brag that he'll do it in five years.
August 2, 2025 at 2:35 PM
It makes all the sense in the world.

Which part of this doesn't sound like something that someone who was convicted of business records fraud a year ago would do?

Give. The. People. What. They. Voted. For. The markets cam deal. Or not. Whatever.
Trump firing the BLS Commissioner makes even less sense than for other positions becaue *these are not policymaking positions.*
Their only role is to ensure the integrity of data collection processes. A replacement can only fix Trump’s problems by fixing thr data. open.substack.com/pub/donmoyni...

I think I've decided that it really doesn't matter if the Tories dump Poilievere or not, even if he is a born nobody.

They'll just replace him with someone else who says that politicians are crooked, stupid, out for your freedom, and overruled by the courts way too often.

Look, I don't want to say that listening to a lot of cool music doesn't make you less of an asshole. What it does do is make you an asshole in a far more interesting way.
