Israel just committed *the largest child massacre in its history*, according to Haaretz. Two hundred Palestinian children murdered in a single day, with direct support from the US and UK, and zero outrage from Western media. What stage of barbarism is this...

This is just the start of misdirection and propaganda from Trump and MAGA followers, the last thing they want is Carney and the Liberals leading a united Canada. Anyone who takes Trump at his word is a fool.

Rosemary Barton: “It’s very difficult to believe.” Well, then that’s a “you” issue and that’s some pretty personal and heavy torque. Carney has followed the rules to a T with the ethics commissioner. Did she ever put it that way when asking Poilievre about no security clearance?

In the wake of Trump supposedly "voiding" Biden pardons, I'm re-upping my recent newsletter asking why major media won't address Trump's mental unfitness. They had no problem going there with Biden, who was simply old, not deranged.

stopthepresses.news

Trump is mentally unfit. Why won’t major media say so?

As well as being a would-be dictator, he’s unhinged and incompetent.

11/ I have listed a variety of reasons why Liberal supporters and Canadians should be extremely wary of the election ahead. The honeymoon Carney period will be replaced by an all out aggressive campaign from several angles and from several quarters, including methods that worked for Trump.

some helpful reminders: -not all jews support israel -criticizing israel is not the same as being antisemitic -being pro-palestine does not equal being pro-hamas -arresting someone for being pro-palestine is a violation of the first amendment -violating someone’s first amendment rights is bad

In 1890, the Tariff Act came into place in the United States. It placed tariffs on imports of up to 50%. While touted as a way to build American industry, there was also the hope it would force an annexation of Canada. It backfired. Let's learn more. 🧵1/10

The image is a black-and-white political cartoon depicting a man in a suit standing behind a counter labeled "Republican Platform." He is holding a bottle labeled "Untaxed Whiskey, 20¢ Gal." in one hand and a piece of cloth labeled "War-Taxed Common Cloth, Tariff 84%" in the other. Above the counter, a sign reads, "If you don’t see what you want, ask for it." The cartoon, signed by W.A. Rogers, appears to satirize the Republican Party's economic policies, highlighting the disparity in taxation between luxury items like whiskey and essential goods like cloth.

I'm not at all concerned with Mark Carney's French being stiff. He'll get a couple of Quebecois staffers to speak to him exclusively in French, and they'll whip him into shape. Also, I remember Jean Chretien. His English was... rough. I didn't care then, and I don't care now. #CDNpoli
