Just a fun loving retired guy who enjoys thoughtful discussions. If you don't think Canada is a fantastic country maybe your the problem. I will follow back until someone posts something stupid then I block. All MAGA are stupid.

Rep. Adam Smith: "This country has not agreed to have the death penalty for drug smuggling. If we want to have that policy conversation, we can have that policy conversation, but the president has unilaterally decided that lethal force is going to be applied. It's an enormous expansion of power."

Update: This post was from back when Lecce was Education Minister in the Ford government. 42% of respondents in Ontario gave him a negative grade so what did Ford do? Promoted him to a new job, with more responsibility. That is so Ford 😒

COLBERT: You warned everyone…he would prosecute political enemies, cut Medicaid, alienate our allies, give tax cuts to the rich. I know you're not here to say 'I told you so' but would you like to? HARRIS: You're correct. I did predict a lot of that. But what I did not predict was the capitulation.

A few observations. 1) I am surprised anyone in the current CPC could actually read. 2) Poilievre was 15 years old when Carney wrote his thesis and hasn't matured a lot since. 3) WHO CARES?

The joke was basically "having been married to two Jennifer's there's no chance he will scream the wrong name in bed". Trump has been married four or five times but no problem, he only screams his own name during sex anyway.

The fundamental underpinnings of conservative governments is small government, no social support to reduce taxes (in theory). While reducing that "overhead" they spend money on projects like SpaceX that benefit rich contractors who pay no taxes? Dumb politics?

The real issue is that the money paid to SpaceX is added to the government debt but SpaceX does not pay anything back to the government in taxes or benefits. USA National Debt under Trump is 138% of GDP, costing trillions in interest alone.
