There is a suspected outbreak of the plague in Russia. Yes, you read that right. And we cannot trust RFK Jr. and the Trump administration to be prepared to deal with this. We need a Democratic public health doctor in the US Senate.

Scoop: White House monitors suspected plague outbreak in Russia

Administration is "aware, monitoring the outbreak, and assessing options," an official told Axios.

Didn’t recognize any of the names so I looked into it and none of them died in Iran. Bottom row has three service members killed when U.S. pulled out of Kabul, at the Abbey Gate bombing. Dustin Wright was one of 4 soldiers killed in Niger in 2017 (not the one Trump forgot name of in call to widow).

You won’t find any Québec politicians in those pics because Trump and MAGA’s popularity is lower in Québec than any other province in Canada. Separation polling below 30% here but the issue won’t be helped by people calling Québecers traitors based on zero evidence.

IF is carrying a lot of weight here. Not sure it would be treasonous but let’s agree it would be morally objectionable. That being said, I wasn’t saying it would be ok, I was saying it wasn’t happening at all. Those who want to disrupt unity have a bias to claim it was happening to attack Quebec.

After spending the past five days in Shanghai, I think we have to amend “cities aren’t loud; cars are loud” to “cities aren’t loud; internal combustion engine cars are loud.” Astonishing how much quieter the streets are here, where the majority of vehicles are electric.

Same thing 🇨🇦’s been saying for years about 🇺🇸. America claims Canada doesn’t spend enough on its military and relies on the U.S. for “protection”. U.S. spends $1T on its military, Trump wants to increase it to $1.5T. Canada won’t feel 50% more protected, we’ll feel 50% more threatened.

Fucking “patriots” are falling for the misinformation and are going to push Québec towards separation. It’s below 30% now and Québécois have the lowest approval ratings of Trump in Canada. But continue labeling us as traitors and it won’t take long for separation to gain traction.

That you believe the misinformation that separatist parties are colluding with Trump administration tells us everything we need to know about those outside of Quebec who think they know anything about us. Quebec has lowest Trump approval rate in Canada. Separation is polling below 30% in Quebec.

Let’s call it what it is. American think tank has decided to weaken Canada and has advanced the story that separatist are colluding with Trump. Don’t fall for misinformation, separation is polling below 30% in Quebec but it’ll go a lot higher if the rest of Canada starts calling Quebecois traitors.

René Lévesque died of a heart attack while hosting a dinner party a couple of years after retirement almost 40 years ago. Didn’t want to charge U.S. the Ontario rate for hydro, he sought to undercut the ON rate. QC electricity is 100% hydro, costs half as much to produce as ON’s electricity.

Fuckface fired a US attorney by email less than an hour after Seattle's federal judges appointed him, and a judge just ordered the man back. The law doesn't let a petty tyrant pick every prosecutor. Blanche and the DOJ are barred from touching him. Good. Choke on it.

Trump: My Administration will, immediately, begin sending 'Checks' of nearly $100 to over 20 MILLION wonderful Seniors to help pay for their Medicare Part B premium ... This money will come from the Medicare Improvement Fund, a pointless 'Slush Fund' that has only been used by Dumocrats ... "

Trump: "I am pleased to announce that my Administration will, immediately, begin sending 'Checks' of nearly $100 to over 20 MILLION wonderful Seniors to help pay for their Medicare Part B premiums, which we have already reduced by significant amounts. This money will come from the Medicare Improvement Fund, a pointless 'Slush Fund' that has only been used by Dumocrats in Congress to pay for the Waste, Fraud, and Abuse for their Special Interest friends, and drive up Healthcare costs. We are finally using this Fund, along with my Most Favored Nations Deals, to substantially LOWER costs for our Seniors. I pledged to protect and preserve Medicare and Social Security, which were on the verge of RUIN by Joe Biden, who foolishly and maliciously let tens of millions of Illegal Aliens into our Country, and we are doing just that for America’s Seniors. This is separate from the equally substantial Refund 'Checks' we are sending to One Million Americans who were overcharged for their Unaffordable Care Act plans by Joe Biden.

Because I delivered on this very important issue for the American People, they can also rest assured the highly popular $5,000 Trump Dividend will be distributed to every U.S. Citizen if, and when, the Republicans win the Midterm Elections! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP"
