Not gonna happen. Canada exports 3.8 million barrels of crude a day to US refiners. That would mean an increase of $2.00 at the pump. That would make the price of gas $5.00 a gallon in Scranton Pennsylvania.
Trump threatens Canada with 100% tariffs if it makes a trade deal with China. Way to win friends and influence people.

My personal scale of “totally apolitical women I went to high school with and probably have MAGA husbands in Scranton” talking about a political event is now at an 11 on the 1-10 scale. More than Jan 6. Absolutely a “thing people feel compelled to speak out on”

Portnoy is one of the least Jewish coded people out there despite having the name of the protagonist of one of Jewish modern literature’s most famous novels.

Like how is he not a catholic guy from Scranton PA or Medford Mass.

He’s coming off a mechanical overhaul at the Feole Pitching workshop where he’s reportedly added a power sinker and revamped his cutter. Low risk, massive upside for the Scranton-to-Bronx shuttle. #Yankees #RepBX

Jan. 21, 1926: The Soviet Union confirms it has looted Romanov royal graves at St. Peter and Paul Cathedral in Leningrad to acquire a treasure of crowns and jewelry. Although the regime says these relics have gone to museums, it’s suspected they were sold abroad for cash.

"Plato argued that to philosophize is to learn to die. If that’s true, then we have entered humanity’s most philosophical age—or this is precisely the problem of the Anthropocene. The trouble now is that we must learn to die not as individuals, but as a civilization."

I'm a working class disabled lady who's been through the ringer of multiple recessions, but I'd be willing to bet a substantial amount Josh Shapiro is hiding all sorts of things behind NDAs. But nobody cares what some lady in Scranton PA says.

Public officials who sign NDAs should resign because they don't understand the job.
And there really ought to be a law to prevent any such thing from ever happening where elected officials sign agreements to keep secrets from the communities they serve.

Working in radio was the craziest job. One time I had to visit a cluster up in Scranton when I was with Entercom (Audacy) and they had just fired their program director because he bashed a bathroom door down with a fire extinguisher because a listener had locked themselves in there to win a bike
