Retired economist, former Canadian Department of Finance and IMF, living at the beach in Panama with my 3 beautiful dogs. No patience for pearl clutchers in the fight against fascism.

🚨Watch out going to the US from Canada! White House Border Czar Tom Homan has vowed to focus more on the northern border, calling the US-Canada border a ‘security vulnerability’. The House passed a northern border security bill last month. 🔗 Source: www.thetravel.com/us-border-cz...

The reason that all this happened is because too many Americans thinks it’s cool and funny to be ignorant assholes. It’s not funny.

ICE just kidnapped a woman at LAX airport Saturday Oct 3, 12:50AM. A community member was able to record when several ICE goons who refused to identify themselves grabbed the woman, put her into a van and then drove off.

Of course the primary reason why CNN and MS NOW are running the illegal taxpayer-funded Trump campaign ads is because they are afraid of the Trump Admin coming after them if they refuse. The path of least resistance is compliance caused by fear and intimidation.

Animals are much smarter and have richer emotional lives than we generally realize. We should adjust our behaviour accordingly. I have not become a vegan, but I am drifting in that direction.

Absolutely right on. We should have recognized this long before Trump, as in when the George W. Bush administration was torturing detainees and declaring a right to invade in the guise of the Bush Doctrine. We are Finland to their Russia and must prepare to defend ourselves . flip.it/krbldQ

This Canadian is so proud of my fellow Canadians for evidencing their patriotism & defiance of the US by abandoning American products, cancelling their 🇺🇸 vacations, selling their homes in Florida & elsewhere, and advocating for our many allies to take the same approach. Canada stands up to bullies!

Donald Trump trying to dismantle the International Criminal Court, so the US can't be tried for war crimes, is like a serial killer lobbying for the repeal of the criminalization of homicide. It also mean Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are *definitely* committing war crimes.
