I believe we all owe Dan Bongino a debt of gratitude. By leaving the FBI now, he locks in a tenure of exactly ten Scaramuccis, which will make future calculations a lot easier. That’s a rare victory for the Metric system in the United States.

Mark Carney agreed to cancel the Digital Services Tax as a show of good faith to keep trade negotiations going and Trump is still threatening Canada with 35% tariffs. Why would anyone even try negotiating with the US when we’re this vindictive and untrustworthy?

Just saw a construction worker hauling 19L water jugs up scaffolding. Was wearing hard hard, high vis, steel toes, etc but no respiratory protection. Will be interesting to see when/if we ever get official safety requirements for days like today

Unfortunately, it is clear no country can trust Trump to honor agreements, and they can no longer trust the United States to honor any agreements. His ignorance and fickle corruption has permanently tainted the US reputation. The International community saw the American public vote him in twice.

To those who have accepted an invitation to US ambassador Hoekstra's July 4 garden party in Ottawa, it's not too late to discover you have another pressing engagement that day and simply not show up. This can be taken by the ambassador as a gesture of endearment.

If our culture wasn't so misinformed and resistant to masks as an air health protection, I would expect officials would issue air alerts and distribute masks in critical wildfire smoke zones. We see water warnings at contaminated beaches but seem to do little about contaminated air. 🤷‍♂️
